Esthetics by Krista

I have been an esthetician since 2002 when I graduated from Marvel College in Kelowna BC.

I really enjoy doing esthetics and have been able to continue learning new skills and adding to my services. Having a home spa allows me to book more time for every service which means no "rushing" through services because another client is booked right after.

Whether you choose to nurture your body with a massage, your skin with a facial, or your hands and feet with a luxurious manicure and pedicure, you will experience uniquely personalized pampering that's my promise to you!

You're never too young or too old to take proper care of your best asset ~ your skin! "I look forward to treating you in the near future!

Summer Skin Care Tips!

Each day we lose 850 ml of water through perspiration, so drinking water is helpful in replacing this lost fluid. During the summer, water loss is more rapid, and humid conditions accelerate water loss through the skin as the body attempts to cool itself. As a result, sebum production increases, collecting on the skin and clogging pores. For many, this process results in breakouts, so regular cleansing is recommended.

A good skin care regimen for most skin types during the summer months is the following:

1. cleansing with a natural cleanser.
2. Exfoliation, 2 times a week.
3. Hydrate your skin with a natural toner.
4. Moisturize with a light, all natural moisturizer. Creams and lotions with petroleum based ingredients tend to clog the pores unnecessarily.
5. Massage a face moisturizer into the skin at night. Massaging serves to increase circulation to the skin, which helps the natural rejuvenation processes which take place during sleep.
6. Keep lips protected and moisturized with a lip balm, lip gloss or lipstick, preferably containing a natural sun block such as titanium dioxide.
7. Use an eye cream to help reduce fine lines and puffiness.
8. Cover up to reduce the amount of exposure to the sun with a wide brimmed hat, long and loose fitting clothing. Ninety percent of skin cancers are due to chronic sun damage and eighty percent of wrinkles arise from photo aging.
