Did you notice the glowing skin of the Olympians at the London Games? In addition to having well-toned, buff bodies, they all seem to have flawless complexions as well. Just look at the stunning Natasha Hastings, the gold medal track and field sprinter from Queens.
Celebrity skin care guru Joanna Vargas, owner of one of the best day spas in New York City, stresses to her clients how important regular exercise is for healthy skin. Ms. Vargas tells her clients that exercise detoxifies the skin through sweating and optimizes blood circulation. This is vitally important for the transport of vitamins, minerals and nutrients throughout the body while also getting rid of waste. And exercise also boosts the flow of oxygen to the cells, which in turn stimulates skin-plumping collagen synthesis in the dermis for more youthful skin.
What is an Oxygen Purifying Facial?
In addition to exercise and cultivating the best face care habits, this high profile facialist, advises her clients to eat well and drink plenty of water. This simple holistic approach to skin care extends to her spa treatments such as the Oxygen Purifying Facial. Praised in both Vogue and Allure, this treatment gently smoothens and soothes dull, lifeless complexions, resulting in a healthy glow.
The oxygen is infused with a specially formulated antioxidant-rich serum and it is delivered directly into the skin, flooding the tissues with vitamins, nutrients and minerals. This system of delivery is akin to hyperbaric oxygen and working as a powerful antibacterial agent which destroys acne-causing bacteria on the surface of the skin and clears the pores.
The treatment starts with cleansing and exfoliation to open and soften the pores and is concluded with toning, moisturizing and a sunscreen application. The best aspect of this gentle facial rejuvenation is that one can return to their normal beauty routine directly after. In fact, facial care products function far more effectively and make-up can be applied to smooth, well-hydrated face.
Are there anti-aging benefits with oxygen face care?
As clients of this holistic day spa and a host of industry professional have been testifying, regular oxygen facials will even out tone and increase the elasticity of your skin. As old skin cells are shed, this facial breathes new supple life to worn faces. The healthy cell regeneration supports elastin and collagen production and keeps the dermis hydrated which results in a youthfully radiant glow.
So even if your gym routine has not yet gotten back on track, take the time to get your skin into the best shape possible by being mindful of what you eat and adhering to a daily routine that includes occasional revitalizing oxygen facials. Even the gorgeous Natasha Hastings travels with an oscillating facial skin brush which should help her cleanser to remove sunscreen, makeup and sweat.”
We can‘t all have Olympian bodies, but gold medal skin is well within your reach.
