While refreshing, fall’s crisp air can also take a toll on your skin. Harsh winds and cooler temperatures can compromise your skin’s natural barrier resulting in a dull, lackluster complexion. Masks are a quick, fun, and effective way to restore your skin’s moisture levels as an add on to any skincare service or at home. To celebrate Healthy Skin Month in November, included below are SKYN Lounge’s favorite masks:

1. Carita’s Plumping Sheet Mask – Ideal for the on-the-go lifestyle, this Korean beauty favorite is a quick remedy for dehydrated skin. Slide on after landing for a glowing and radiant skin before you land. (Can be added on to any skincare treatment for $35)
2. Carita’s Supreme Wrinkle Solution Eye Patches – Banish dark circles and under-eye bags with some intentional TLC. De-puff and smooth out fine lines and wrinkles in the delicate under-eye area with Carita’s Supreme Wrinkle Solution Eye Patches. (Can be added on to any skincare treatment for $25)
3. Carita’s 24k Gold Gem Mask – Our ultimate anti-aging treatment uses precious metals to instantly lift, firm and plump skin for a fuller appearance. This in-office only mask is ideal for addressing anti-aging concerns and pairs well with our Carita facials or LED Light Therapy. (Can be added on to any skincare treatment for $35)

• Contour – Sculpt your favorite features with a contour technique. Our Contour brush is perfectly crafted to aid in application of our ZenSKYN Contour Duo Palette. Try Afternoon Delight, First Crush or Pick-Up Artist.

Let your natural beauty shine this summer! Follow these five tips for the make-up minimalist:

• Eyelash Tinting – Say goodbye to clumpy lashes and hello to eyelash tinting! No need to bother with Waterproof mascara, your tint will stay on even in water – ideal for days spent lakeside and poolside. This semi-permanent service can be expected to keep your lashes looking bold for a few weeks.

• Stay Protected – After you cleanse, tone, and apply a Vitamin C serum, apply SkinCeuticals’ Physical Fusion SPF 50 to protect against environmental damage. This broad spectrum sunscreen features a universal tint that blends beautifully with your natural skin tone – providing the coverage you love without an additional foundation.

• Shape Up – Tame unruly brows with a wax and pro-shape at SKYN Lounge! Our Aestheticians take great care to craft your arches to your preference. Looking for fuller brows without the hassle of filling them in? We can also tint your brows to match your natural coloring!

• Gloss – If smokey eyes aren’t your go-to standard, adapt a bold lip. Subtle eyes and a glossy pout always complete a classic summertime look. Slide on one of our vibrant ZenSKYN Luxury Glosses in Vivid Dream, Blossom Rose or Vivid Energy for an everyday pop of color.

• Bronzer/Blush Duo – Contour made easy! For effortless application, sweep on your bronzer and blush from one palette! Our ZenSKYN Bronzer/Blush Duo comes in several bright shades for a lovely summer glow.
