5 Skincare Must-Haves to Maintain Your Facial Glow Between Appointments
Your spa treatments do wonders for your skin, but maintaining that glow between appointments is just as important! With the right products, you can extend the benefits of your facials, keep your skin healthy, and stay on track with your skincare goals.
Here are my top five skincare tools and products to use between visits to keep your skin looking fresh and radiant.
1. A Silicone Loofah for Gentle, Hygienic Exfoliation
These are my absolute favorite! I threw away my traditional loofah when I discovered this. Traditional loofahs and washcloths can trap bacteria and mold, leading to unnecessary skin irritation. A silicone loofah is a hygienic, long-lasting alternative that provides gentle exfoliation without harboring bacteria. These are excellent if you are prone to body acne as well.
✔ Ultra-hygienic & easy to clean – Unlike traditional sponges, silicone is non-porous, making it resistant to bacteria and mold buildup.
✔ Gentle on skin – Soft silicone bristles provide effective exfoliation without irritation, making it perfect for all skin types.
✔ Boosts circulation – The massaging effect helps promote circulation, leaving your skin feeling refreshed.
2. Under-Eye Mask Patches for Hydration & Puffiness Reduction
I always pass these out in client goodie bags! They are my favorite whenever I did not get enough sleep or just need a little pick-me up. Hydrogel under-eye masks deliver a surge of hydration, helping to reduce puffiness, fine lines, and dark circles.
✔ Deep hydration – Infused with hyaluronic acid and collagen, these masks help plump and smooth the under-eye area.
✔ Depuffing effect – Cooling under-eye patches help reduce swelling and tiredness, especially in the morning.
✔ Perfect prep before makeup – Using an under-eye mask before concealer ensures a smooth, hydrated application.

3. Steam Eye Masks for Ultimate Relaxation
If you struggle with tired eyes, tension headaches, or stress, steam eye masks are a game-changer. These self-heating masks warm up upon opening, providing gentle steam therapy to soothe the eyes and promote relaxation. As some of you know, I love offering these during a massage treatment! They have really helped me when I get the occasional tension headache.
✔ Soothes & relieves tension – The warm steam helps relieve eye strain, puffiness, and stress.
✔ Perfect for bedtime – The gentle warmth promotes relaxation, making it ideal for winding down before sleep.
✔ No mess, no hassle – Each mask is disposable and easy to use, making it perfect for travel or self-care nights.
4. Myofascial Lift Tape for Sculpting & Skin Support
You may have seen face taping trending for a natural lifting effect—but this method actually has real skin benefits when used correctly! Myofascial lift tape helps train the facial muscles, reducing tension and promoting a lifted, sculpted look over time. If you want more help with how to use lift tape, let me know!
✔ Supports facial muscles – Helps relieve tension and subtly lifts sagging areas.
✔ Enhances lymphatic drainage – Aids in reducing puffiness and fluid retention.
✔ Pairs perfectly with facials – Extend the results of your facial sculpting treatments by using face tape in between appointments.
5. The NuFACE Microcurrent Device for Daily Lifting
If you love the lifted, sculpted results from your facials, a NuFACE microcurrent device is the perfect at-home tool to maintain those results between visits. I currently use a professional microcurrent device during treatments, but you can boost the effects of these with an at home device like this.
✔ Firms & tightens skin – Microcurrent technology stimulates facial muscles for a natural lifting effect.
✔ Improves product absorption – Helps serums penetrate deeper for enhanced skincare benefits.
✔ Easy to use – Just 5 minutes a day can help maintain a more lifted, youthful look.
