I have now introduced Lavender and Rose Hydrosols into my Cosmetic Acupuncture treatments. Hydrosols are so lovely and refreshing.They are made from the direct steam distillation of whole plant materials. Different than essential oils, they can be used directly on the skin.
Lavender hydrosols gently tones oily, dry and mature skin. Lavender has always been recommended for fragile or damaged skin. It is very gentle and balancing for all skin types. It helps to soothe sunburns and other skin irritations. Use it to reduce anxiety and stress. Rosewater stimulates the skin and improves the circulation of blood. It also controls and balances sebum production, making it useful for both dry and oily skin. Its antibacterial properties help fight acne giving troubled skin a gentle, rather than a strong treatment. It is also an excellent balancer of the spirit.
In my Cosmetic Acupuncture treatments, hydrosols are applied after the removal of the fine needles and prior to the application of a balancing serum and facial massage. A relaxing way to end the treatment.
I am currently offering 10 Cosmetic Acupuncture treatments for $75.00 each. They are regularly $100 a treatment. Purchase a package before July 1, 2010 and avoid the HST. Offer expires: December 31, 2010
