You don't have to be a bride to desire radiant skin. You know the look ... the look of healthy, glowing, evenly-toned skin that lights up the face. Some people are blessed with better skin than others, and diet and lifestyle also have much to do with how radiant (or dull) our faces are. Yet, with a little work and some professional guidance, everyone can noticeably increase their radiance level. Radiant skin is naturally attractive, and that makes it a goal worth working towards.

Many of us have been caring for our faces the same way for decades:wash it twice a day, smear on a little moisturizer from the drugstore, cover it all with makeup, and hope for the best. We know more about getting stains out of clothing than we do about keeping age from showing up in our faces. We readily rely on personal trainers, financial advisors and retirement planners for guidance in many areas of our lives. But when it comes to skin care, most of us are do-it-yourselfers. If this is sounds like you, it may be time to seek guidance from a skin care professional.

Despite the fancy name, estheticians are skin care experts, full of training and knowledge about skin issues. Estheticians are the go-to people for learning all about your skin and how to best take care of it. We are convinced that if more women understood what estheticians do, they would establish a working relationship with an esthetician long before they require damage control. That's why we offer a complimentary skin analysis and consultation. It enables our esthetician to analyze your skin's needs and even peer into your skin's future. For example, this analysis may reveal future brown spots which are present in deep layers of the skin, not yet visible. Based on this information, Linda Rhodes, our esthetician at LivingYoung, will give you personalized recommendations for caring for your skin. This is what she loves to do. And it's free.

Although Linda will customize a plan just for you, she usually recommends that clients take advantage of "The Tempting Trio" a package that includes a customized facial, a chemical peel, and a microdermabrasion spaced at intervals throughout the year. We have made The Tempting Trio an affordable package at $250.

The choice must be made: regular preventive maintenance now, or serious damage control later. We encourage you to add a professional esthetician to your list of professional facilitators. It's such a simple way to add a lifetime of radiance to your looks.
