“A great DIY [do it yourself] scrub is to mix one cup cooked oatmeal, one ripe banana, and four tablespoons milk. It will smell amazing and the lactic acid in the milk combined with the banana and oatmeal texture will brighten skin for spring.” Joanna Vargas, Joanna Vargas Salon, New York

“It sounds simple but an easy tip for looking radiant in spring is simply drinking a glass of water with freshly squeezed lemon every morning. This will internally hydrate the skin while strengthening melanin production and giving the body a burst of brightening vitamin C.” -Tammy Fender, Tammy Fender Holistic Spa, West Palm Beach

“To make skin glow, mix one tablespoon of honey, one egg yolk, and one tablespoon of olive oil. Apply the mask for 20 minutes, then wash off.” -Josie Feria, director of spa operations, Lapis Spa at Fountainebleu, Miami

“For a well-rested look, place your eye gel or serum in the fridge and apply a thicker layer than you normally do. Top with a steeped and cooled tea bag-chamomile to sooth or green to reduce puffiness-and relax with it on for 10 minutes.” -Karen Aleksich, the Spa at Mandarin Oriental, Boston

How do LED facials improve your skin

According to Livestrong.com, ‘Skin maladies such as acne and premature wrinkles can be addressed and treated with LED light therapy treatments. They may even help with skin discoloration, according to the American Academy of Dermatology. By increasing collagen production and circulation to your skin, LED light therapy is used in lieu of many traditional dermatological treatments such as ablative laser therapy and botox injections. This is because it uses low-intensity lights to reach the deeper layers of your skin…’

As an added bonus, LED is the preferred advanced skincare because it is non-invasive with no recovery time and rapid age-defying results. Light therapy poses fewer risks to dermal health than more invasive face care such as laser treatments. Because LED has no side effects, it accommodates the busy schedule of professional life.
