Keep Your Glow Going
What you do at home matters, too.

Cleanse gently morning and evening.

Keep your skin properly moisturized.

Wear broad-spectrum SPF 30+ every day.

Avoid introducing several new skincare products immediately after your facial.
-
Resume stronger active ingredients according to the treatment you received and my recommendations.

Stay consistent with the home-care routine we've created for your skin.
What to Avoid
Give your skin a little time to reset.
-
Avoid intentional tanning and prolonged direct sun exposure.
-
Skip harsh scrubs, exfoliating acids, retinoids, and other potentially irritating products until your skin is ready.
-
Don't pick at extractions, breakouts, flaking, or peeling skin.
-
Avoid additional aggressive skin treatments until your skin has fully recovered.
-
Be especially gentle after dermaplaning, chemical peels, nano infusion, or other advanced treatments.
What to Expect
Your skin will look radiant immediately, but your Golden Soul results don’t end when you leave the treatment room.
​
Depending on your treatment, you may experience temporary redness, sensitivity, or mild flaking. Every client’s skin responds differently based on the service performed and their individual skin needs.
​
During the days following your appointment, focus on gentle skincare, hydration, daily sun protection, and the personalized home-care recommendations discussed during your visit.
​
For continued skin health and long-lasting results, most clients benefit from professional treatments every 4–6 weeks. We’ll recommend a schedule that fits your skin, goals, and lifestyle, never a one-size-fits-all approach.
