Beating Stress for Better Heart Health

Spring is a season of renewal—mentally, emotionally and physically—especially after a winter where you might have skipped self-care rituals more often than not. Prepare to glow by using the change of season to focus on your body as a whole by indulging in facials.
“As summer approaches, smooth, healthy skin is a must—especially in areas prone to ingrown hairs, irritation and dryness. At BARE Body Waxing Studio, we believe skincare extends beyond the face. We combine expert waxing with corrective skincare to ensure every inch of your skin looks and feel its best,” says Jacquelyn Kraemer, founder and CEO.
Let’s focus on the face first. Beyond changing up your skincare routine and products for warmer weather, give your complexion a hydrated and dewy refresh with a facial. “We exclusively use only Korean skincare and have adapted an eastern take on how we approach facials and treating the skin. Our areas of focus are anti-aging, acne, facial massage, and pigmentation corrections,” Kraemer says. Results are not just achieved through skincare products and chemical peels, but also tools such as those using red light, radio frequency, micro currents, dermal stamping, ultrasound and others. BARE will be rolling out new options for facials in the coming weeks.
Spring comes early in Louisiana, with temperatures warm enough to venture into a pool or visit a beach. Make sure you’re swimsuit ready, not only by scheduling regular waxing appointments but investing in skincare that targets problem areas. One popular treatment from BARE is their Bikini Facial, which “targets ingrown hairs, discoloration, irritation and uneven skin texture. We have one for just the bikini line and one for the full pubic area,” Kraemer says, but notes “not all of our bikini facials can be paired with a wax” due to the waxing process being exfoliating itself. If wanting a service other than the Original Bikini Facial, other treatments can be done five to seven days after a wax. Bikini services also include high frequency skin therapy.
There’s another facial you may not be aware of—the Booty Facial. Kraemer says, “The buttocks can experience ingrown hairs, breakouts and dryness due to friction from clothing, workouts and sweat. The Booty Facial is designed to deeply cleanse, exfoliate and hydrate for silky-smooth, blemish-free skin so you feel confident in shorts, swimsuits or nothing at all!”
Your skin is your largest organ, so give it a little TLC. Whether you’ve recently incorporated skincare into your daily ritual or are looking to upgrade your routine, there are plenty of options available to improve skin quality for a more confident you.
