About the Deep Journey Organic Facial Treatment

This refreshing treatment combines the exfoliating properties of jojoba beads and the natural benefits of carefully selected certified organic essential oils to eliminate the build-up of dead surface cells. Recommended for all skin types, its exfoliating action leaves the skin smooth, soft and radiant, and maintains its natural beauty and balance. A great introductory treatment to cleanse and restore vitality to the skin and provide deep relaxation. It is also recommended as a memorable first time facial to assess the client’s needs for other treatments.

Client Preparation/Treatment (6 minutes)

Switch on vaporizer or make sure it can provide steam when needed. Take a brief history of client’s condition and contact information. Explain to client the expected results of the treatment and the importance of follow-up home care.

Organic Facial Protocol

(Indications: dry, sensitive, congested, mature/aging)

Step One (1 minute)

Remove eye and facial make-up if necessary using CHAMOMILE & ALOE MAKEUP REMOVER applied to moisten cotton squares to provide better slip and coverage.

Wipe the skin with HYDRATING TONIC applied to moistened cotton pads.
