a little about me & my services

 

When people ask me what my job title is, and I reply, "I'm an Esthetician," they look at me as though I have three heads.  It always makes me smile.   So, for clarification, Esthetician is an elegant word for "facialist."   Meaning that what I do for a living is help people improve their skin by providing luxurious and effective facial treatments. 

I have been practicing Esthetics in the St. Charles area for nine years. (And for the record, I have the best clients on the planet.)   In opening my own skin care center, I have strived to create a quaint, tranquil haven where every service is individually tailored and where the clients' needs are first priority.   

Your face is how you present yourself to the world.   That is why it is essential to have a luminous and healthy complexion.   Regular visits to your dermatologist, daily home care maintenance, facials from your Esthetician, and a healthy lifestyle will all assist you in having the best complexion possible.   That's where my services, knowledge and products come in handy.  

I have requests from my clients to let them spend the night at the spa or call them a cab to drive them home after receiving a facial, simply because they are so relaxed.   My facial treatments are not only pampering, but they provide fantastic results in clarifying the skin's tone and texture, healing lesions and scars from acne, reducing the appearance of fine lines and providing the skin with vital nutrients to maintain a healthy complexion.   All of my facials are customized to best suit your skin's individual needs, whatever they may be.   

Then there are the eyebrows.

Two things a woman may rightfully obsess about:  Her shoes and her eyebrows.   Men don't understand either of these fascinations, but we know exactly why great eyebrows are vital:   Because they frame your face and enhance your eyes.   I believe eyebrow shaping is an art.   My signature style is to maintain the fullness of the brows, while complementing the natural brow and face shapes.   Another signature eyebrow service that I do is eyebrow tinting.  Tinting enhances the eyes by providing the brows with rich color that matches your natural tones.

I also feel it is important to let my clients know that I have made the conscious choice to use products that contain natural and/or organic, plant-based ingredients whenever possible.  I try to lead an eco-friendly, sustainable lifestyle personally, and I practice this at my spa as well.   

           

Take a gander below to learn the specifics about my treatments and products.  And please don't hesitate to call or send me an e-mail if you have any questions.   I am a one-woman show and always very busy, so I apologize ahead of time for any delay in my response.

Sincerely,

Tiffany Lewis

 facials

Each facial is tailored to fit your skin type.   Be it sensitive, dry, mature, oily/acne or combination skin, the following treatments will help to restore your skin’s natural balance and radiance.

At the time of your treatment, I will custom-blend your exfoliant and treatment masques according to your skin’s needs.  Included in all facials:  Cleansing, toning, skin analysis, exfoliation and hydration.  I perform extractions when necessary.

 


express                            40 min           $50

This quick, mini-facial is designed to target your skin’s primary need.  Be it extractions, refinement or hydration, one masque will be formulated to restore balance to your skin.  Great for the woman on the go.  And, really, who isn't?  But remember to take time for yourself.  Read on...

 

preservation               70 min            $75

Restore a healthy glow to your skin with the perfect facial for regular maintenance.  Includes cleansing, toning, customized exfoliation and treatment masques, and massages for the scalp, hands and arms.  Note:  You may be too relaxed to drive home or face the real world after service completion.

 

euphoria*                     85 min                 $90

This facial is the most luxurious, pampering service.  It includes cleansing, toning, customized exfoliation and treatment masques, and aromatherapy.  In addition, I will incorporate a scalp, decollete and facial massage, a hand/arm massage with hot stones, and a few more bountiful treats.  Side effects may include:  Inability to get up from treatment bed due to state of complete bliss.

 

some like it hot              95 min             $110

Based on the euphoria facial, this service includes the use of hot and/or cold stones throughout your entire facial.  Hot stones help with blood circulation and releasing muscle tension, while cold stones aid in reducing redness and water retention in the skin.  Don’t be surprised if you levitate from the bed during this treatment.

 

glycolic acid peel - 35% strength        25 min         $45/peel, or $250 for a series of 6

If you want great results fast, this is the facial treatment for you.  Due to its small molecular composition, glycolic acid is one of the most effective peels for the skin.  Glycolic acid is derived from sugar cane and assists in healing and preventing blemishes, diminishing discoloration spots, and stimulating collagen production.  Basically, it does it all.   Recommended in a six week series.

 

 

 

 

the remedies

Exfoliants refine the skin in one of two fashions: mechanically or chemically.  Mechanical exfoliants are referred to as “scrubs."  Their granular texture provides the best exfoliation for dry skin or poor texture.  Chemical exfoliants are often referred to as “peels.” Chemical exfoliants consist of alpha- and beta-hydroxy acids that, due to their molecular composition, absorb into the pores to digest dead skin cells.  The peels used at my facility are plant-based and have a low-grade to moderate strength, thus only mild redness, if any, may occur.

Chemical peels will make the skin sun-sensitive, therefore sun exposure is prohibited while receiving peels and the use of a daily SPF facial cream is required.

After the skin is exfoliated, a Treatment Masque is applied.  Treatment Masques serve many functions, including replenishing the skin's lipid barrier through deep hydration, stimulating collagen production, healing blemishes and reducing the appearance of fine lines.

I offer various types of exfoliants and treatment masques, depending on your skin’s individual needs.

If you are using Retin-A, Accutane or Differin, you must cease usage 48-hours before having a facial.
