What is Holistic Skincare?
BY ALLEGRA KAY
Part 1
All day long we are bombarded with info. Whether it is helpful, informative, or just plain annoying, we have to sift through so much information that is can seem overwhelming on what to actually DO. This is especially true in the wellness and self-care world; we all want to take care of our health and wellbeing but how do we know what is right for us and what do all these terms actually mean?
At Menari, we want to slow down the speed and quiet down the noise for you by providing an experience of total relaxation. We do this by addressing the person as a “whole,” which is why we pay attention to each detail of your service from the moment you walk in the door. We especially do this with our holistic approach to skincare. So what exactly is a holistic facial and what sets it apart?
Holistic facials involve treating the skin and the person as one. We aim to understand the root cause of skin imbalances and work to energetically support the mind, body and soul so we can keep these in balance. The goal is to heal the skin, not harm it through the use of toxic and harsh chemicals. We don’t just want to help you relax; we want to help flush out toxins from the skin and encourage collagen production and cellular repair. This happens through a curated process that involves targeted and gentle massage of the face and body, skincare that utilizes potent botanical ingredients and lots of extra details like aromatherapy and cozy surroundings.
Speaking of skincare, we have thoughtfully chosen three lines that we believe embody the holistic philosophy. Osmosis, Laurel Skin and Honua are all professional lines that truly heal the skin. When paired with relaxation, these products and the hands of our experienced estheticians will leave you glowing from the inside out!
