Fire and Ice facial

Heat or stimulation is applied to the skin to help increase blood flow and circulation. ( the “Fire”) The warming sensation is then followed by a cold treatment with cooling products, which helps reduce any inflammation or swelling in the skin. ( the “ice” part) While spicy ingredients produce the feeling of warmth, cooling ingredients such as peppermint, menthol, cucumber and tea tree can produce an icy sensation on the skin. These ingredients help gently soften the skin while reducing the appearance of redness and inflammation. You can find peppermint, tea tree and cucumber in our cooling mask. Although hot and cold facials are being treated as another celebrity beauty trend, Hungarian estheticians have been incorporating hot and cold practices in their treatment rooms for centuries.
