Your skin doesn’t stay the same.
The facial you loved six months ago might not be what your skin needs today. Seasons change. Hormones change. Stress changes. The weather changes. The products you use change. And your skin responds to all of it.
So instead of asking, “What facial did you have last time?” maybe the better question is:
Maybe it feels dry or tight. Maybe you are suddenly breaking out. Maybe you are noticing pigmentation, sensitivity or changes in texture. Maybe your makeup just isn’t sitting the way it used to.
Or maybe your skin feels great and you simply want that healthy, beautiful GLOW.
That is where your facial should begin.
One of the biggest mistakes we can make with skincare is assuming that because something worked before, it will always be what our skin needs.
It isn’t that simple.
You can have oily skin and still be dehydrated. You can be concerned about aging and also have sensitive skin. You can have breakouts while also dealing with the pigmentation they leave behind.
That is why at State of Mind Salon & Day Spa, we look at the skin in front of us.
What are you seeing at home? What are you using? What has changed? What do you love about your skin? What would you like to improve?
Then we can make choices based on your skin today.
We have access to an incredible amount of skincare today. Acids, exfoliants, serums, devices and treatments are everywhere.
But more does not automatically mean better.
Sometimes your skin needs correction. Sometimes it needs hydration. Sometimes it needs calming and support. And sometimes your skin simply needs less.
Knowing the difference is part of taking good care of your skin.
We are very intentional about the skincare we use at State of Mind Salon & Day Spa.
We chose Lira Clinical because it gives our estheticians the ability to customize professional treatments around the skin they are actually seeing.
Lira Clinical has professional treatment protocols for different concerns, including hydration, brightening, clarifying and visible signs of aging. Depending on the treatment, its professional protocols use ingredients such as vitamin C, peptides, retinal, salicylic acid, lactic acid, mandelic acid, antioxidants and hydrating ingredients.
What we like most is the ability to make choices.
Not every guest needs the same facial. And not every guest needs the same home care.
Your facial may happen once a month, but what you put on your skin at home happens every day.
That’s why home care matters. We want you to understand what you’re using, why you’re using it and how it supports the results you’re working toward.
The right products should make sense for your skin.
We love skincare, but we also want to understand the science behind what we are recommending.
Peer reviewed research supports an individualized approach to skincare. A published review on daily care for acne, hyperpigmentation, aging and sensitive skin explains that each person’s skin is influenced by a combination of environment, lifestyle, hereditary background and current product use.
That matters.
The skincare routine your friend loves may not be right for you.
And the facial that was perfect for you six months ago may not be the facial your skin needs today.
Healthy skin isn’t about doing the most.
It’s about understanding what your skin needs.
You don’t have to.
Tell us what you are seeing. Tell us what has changed. Tell us what bothers you and what you love about your skin.
And tell us what you are using at home.
Bring your products with you or take pictures of what is sitting on your bathroom counter.
You don’t need to know which facial, ingredient or technology you need before you walk through our doors.
That is what your consultation is for.
Our skin gives us clues all the time. Dryness, oiliness, sensitivity, breakouts, dullness, changes in texture and changes in pigmentation are all things worth paying attention to.
Instead of immediately reaching for the newest product or strongest treatment, listen to what your skin is telling you.
Look at the guest. Listen to the guest. Look at the skin. Then create the experience around what that guest needs.
That’s State of Mind Salon & Day Spa.
Because your skin changes.
And your skincare should too.
