Indulge In-Spa or At-Home with Pevonia Botanica.

If you have not heard of them, let me introduce you to a wonderful skin care company, Pevonia Botanica. Pevonia Botanica is an eco-friendly spa skincare company with over 300 at-home products and over 150 in-spa treatments. Either way you choose to indulge, you will not go wrong.

As my skin has been very stressed lately, I find myself wanting to indulge in a weekly at-home facial. I found just the right products from Pevonia and they are working seamlessly together to help soothe and revitalize it.

As my skin is very dry and stressed, these three products have been selected to work on it. I have been using them every week. Take at look at what I am using and how I ma using them.

  • Enzymo-Sphérides® Peeling Cream - $40.00
    This is a peeling cream that is similar to a very thick cream, almost like a clay based mask. It is important to use with a bit of warm water as that helps activate the encapsulated enzymes that work to gently peel the skin. Pineapple and Papaya enzymes eliminate impurities, blackheads, dead cells, sebum, and toxins. I apply it on my face as I would a mask, and then apply warm water to it with my fingertips and gently massage it in for a few minutes. The first few times I used the peel, I did feel some tingling, but nothing very bothersome. After using, my skin instantly looks more radiant.
  • Rejuvenating Dry Skin Mask - $37.00
    After I remove the peel and tone my skin, I apply this mask that instantly quenches my parched skin. This is more of a lotion that does not completely dry onto the skin, but is more like absorbed slowly into it as it is left on. I apply this, as a mask, all over my face and neck. I relax with some soothing sounds as I let the mask work for ten minutes. I rinse with cool water and towel dry. The results are amazing, as my skin feels more smooth, plump and full of the much needed hydration. The mask uses moisture-bonding hyaluronic acid to hydrates, while Vitamin E and Carotene combine to repair the skin.
  • Aromatherapy Face Oil for Dry, Devitalized Skin - $23.00
    After the mask, I tone my skin again and apply this oil as a final step in my at-home facial. This oil soothes my skin even more, making it feel supple and look vibrant. Vitamin E, Hazel Nut Oil blends with Ylang-Ylang and Jasmine essential oil to prevent dryness and restore moisture loss.

I really feel like I indulges in mini spa facial, right at home when using these products. To see what products would work for you to use in-home or to check out their amazing line of spas and treatments, visit their website, Pevonia.com.

Treat Yourself at the Red Door Spa.

Notice I mentioned to treat yourself?

Yes, as I often neglect to splurge on myself with such services, I am sure many of you do too. But if there was ever a time in my life where I need some extra pampering, it is now. I bet for most of us. My planned treat will be a visit to one of the luxurious Red Door Spas.

Much to my excitement, I just learned that the Red Door Spa has a new spa menu. It features a new broader range of treatments with each delivering the highest level of pampering with Red Door's signature standard amenities - as only they would do.

Hmmm.... so what will a choose? A facial, a head-to-toe treatment? A much needed massage or one of their signature stone massages'?

Here are a few services which I am considering:

Ultimate Arden Facial - A facial paired with a tranquil warm stone massage to induce deep relaxation, complimented by a lip or brow wax.

Ceramide Recapture Facial - This deeply plumping treatment uses a line of highly advance, rejuvenating skin care to smoothe lines while strengthening the texture of the skin while enhancing it's ability to hold in moisture.

Signature Stress Melter Ritual - A soothing service with olive oil for a skin softening scrub plus aroma therapeutic body wraps and massages.

Desert Hot Stone Massage - A Swedish massage enhanced by warm stone therapy to warm and relax muscles.

The Red Door Spa also offers a full menu with your standard and more specialized nail, hair, waxing and makeup treatments as well. There is even a menu for the men.
