Bringing Beautiful Home This Winter: Complimentary Aveda Skin Care Consultations

Winter weather can be rough on skin that’s why Daybreak Spa is pleased to offer complimentary Aveda skin-care consultations to bring the beauty of Aveda to your at-home skincare routine. Our licensed estheticians will assess your skin’s condition, address concerns like drying, aging or acne-prone skin and provide Aveda solutions for an at-home routine to combat winter conditions affecting your skin.

Cold Weather Concerns

Michigan’s cold weather can dry out your complexion in two ways. First, the low temperatures and lack of humidity leach moisture from the skin. Adding artificial indoor heating, well, cranking up the heat only leaves it feeling drier. As cozy as this feels, it is tough on skin. “As our skin ages, its ability to retain moisture decreases,” explains Melissa, Daybreak licensed esthetician. “It’s important to follow a moisturizing routine – cleansers and creams designed to draw moisture back in.”

It leaves skin looking dull

“Dry skin is actually dull skin,” according to Emma, Daybreak esthetician. “Add in cold, windy, dry winter and dead skin cells build up on the surface. It is important to exfoliate to maintain radiance. And go beyond your face, exfoliate your body skin as well. Our Beautifying body scrub is fantastic and smells amazing!” Exfoliating also mitigates roughness which results from dehydration, too.

It makes skin more prone to sun damage

Often times we associate warm weather with sun damage, but when its cold and sunny you need to watch out, too. “Applying sunscreen of at least 30 SPF is important, year-round. Aveda’s Light Guard is a quick and easy addition to keep sun damage, brown spots and wrinkles away,” warns Erin Daybreak Esthetician.
