Ladies, can you believe that I am a beauty blogger and have never had a spa or professional facial? Now, before you all cast judgement, I am the chemical peel diva — which is a deep cleaning facial multiplied by 200.
Well, I went to Aglow Dermatology in Union Square New York and booked an appointment with a licensed aesthetician named Fabricio Ormonde for a facial treat.
I had an “AGLOW-ON-THE-GO” Facial ½ hour; $90.00
Bridging the gap between a facial and peel, the “Aglow-on-the-go” facial is designed to produce a glowing complexion with no downtime. A mask containing glycolic acid, retinol, niacin and antioxidants is applied to the skin to help polish the skin, provide controlled exfoliation, get rid of dullness and deep clean pores.
***Please refrain from use of retinoids, glycolic and salicylic acids, hydroquinone, waxing or bleaching 2 nights before and after facials.***
The facial was great. I felt like Aglow on the Go was a bridge between the chemical peel and facial. The results were go fantastic that my great aunt told me, “Girl, you look really good. Are you pregnant?” Not exactly the compliment I was going for, but that means my skin is glowing!!!!
