Your beauty calendar for 2019

Care calendar

Many treatments to combat cellulite and flaccidity require several sessions and a period of rest between them to obtain definitive results. If you get down to work now, you can take advantage of it to eliminate that fat that you have accumulated these holidays and show off a body 10 in spring.

JANUARY: A good diagnosis

If we talk about the body, the treatments will vary depending on whether the cellulite is hard, soft or edematous (with fluid retention) or there is only flaccidity. That is why they are usually personalized and combine various techniques (appliances, massage, mesotherapy …). The advantage is that many centers offer vouchers with several sessions to lower prices.

Don't forget about your hair and get a diagnosis too. Also, opt for a peeling or detox cleansing of the hair and scalp. It does not hurt that you take advantage of a sanitation of tips to start the year well.

FEBRUARY: THE LOOK REJUVENATES

With household appliances such as LED light masks or light therapy devices they have become popular and allow treating dark circles and crow's feet with professional results without leaving home in less than 5 minutes. But it is necessary a lot of perseverance and accompany the treatment with a good eye contour. In case the wrinkles or bags are very evident, it is best to resort to aesthetic medicine.

Hair detox

Now is the time to invest in hair care products. The most important thing is to choose a line free of sulfates, parabens and silicones. Start by using a good shampoo and conditioner. Olga San Bartolomé recommends that we let our hair breathe so keep everything you have for hair in the drawer . You will notice how the hair detoxifies and recovers part of its shine and elasticity. Try not to use hairspray, serum, or finishing products during this month.

MARCH: algotherapy and facial oxygen

Seaweed wraps remineralize the skin (it absorbs many trace elements), eliminates toxins and stimulates circulation. The Jetpeel equipment is an oxygen shower that gently exfoliates, hydrates and rejuvenates the skin. A saline solution incorporating serums and acids (according to the skin's needs) is applied through pressurized air. One session is enough to welcome spring with a good face.

No spider veins

Sun exposure is not compatible with laser treatments. That is why it is the ideal time to resort to the vascular laser and eliminate those little veins in the legs. For a few days there will be purplish marks on the skin after the session, and several are needed.

MANI-PEDI

There is little left to welcome sandals so if you are going to expose your feet it is essential that the heels and nails are impeccable. It is imperative to make an appointment for a pedicure and already on, why not pamper hands and feet in the same session? Both need deep hydration and you can ask to have your nails painted to match. Mani-pedi are no longer limited to nail polish, they are authentic sensory experiences.

April: ANTI-AGING FACIAL TREATMENTS

In chemical peels, the acid concentrations are adapted to each type of skin. One is recommended in spring and one in late fall to help "renew" the dermis. Botox injections inhibit muscle movement and 'eliminate' expression lines, while hyaluronic acid plumps and reshapes the facial contour. The effect of both lasts approximately 6 months.

Prevent fall

Spring is coming so this month we are going to dedicate it to preventing hair loss. Olga San Bartolomé advises us to reinforce the mane with a complex of anti-hair loss vitamins and use it for three months, since this is the time that a seasonal fall usually lasts. If we use it as prevention, we will use it three times a week, and in case there is already a fall, we will use it daily until the end of the three-month treatment. Hair loss is not the same as hair breakage … discover the differences!

May: INTENSIVE TO SHOW BIKINI

Until now you have not remembered the bikini operation? You can use the most powerful appliances to reduce size in an express time. If you are not very fond of machines, you can also bet on a 100% organic manual protocol that helps drain fluids and tone the body. The 2 options require a minimum of 6 sessions. So it is convenient to put the batteries.

June: BYE BYE, LOCALIZED GREASE

If at this time of year there are areas where fat still resists, you still have time to combat it with shock treatments. Those hot spots can be treated with technologies that work very well to break down stubborn fat in the abdomen, knees, or inner arms or thighs. Take note.

July: DEEPLY STRENGTHEN YOUR SKIN

Apart from the treatments in centers, you can prepare the skin with nutricosmetics: solar tablets, based on vitamins and antioxidants. Kleresca® is a treatment with light energy that can be done in summer because it has no contraindications with the sun. The face is exposed to fluorescent light for 9 minutes. This, as regulated, stimulates the production of collagen, strengthens the repair mechanisms of the skin and even acts against acne (4 sessions, one per week). kleresca.es

Keratin treatment

This is a month in which the work in hairdressers tends to overflow, without a doubt it is the month of keratin . For all of us who have frizzy hair, a door opens to the rest of our hair, during the next three months we forget to have to comb our hair. In case you doubted it, yes, it is worth doing the keratin in summer.

August: SUN PROTECTION AND RELAX

Protecting our skin from the sun should be a habit throughout the year, but in summer it is advisable to take extreme precautions. Use a sunscreen with SPF 30 minimum. A very high percentage of spots and wrinkles are caused by the sun. Take advantage of your vacation period to practice the triple D: rest a lot, disconnect and enjoy. Not only will your mind appreciate it, but your skin will reflect it.

ACTIVATE

Water gymnastics, whether in the hotel pool or by the sea, is a sport that helps you stay fit and burn fat without causing much impact on your joints. Also take the opportunity to swim or to walk along the seashore. You will activate circulation and tone your body. Mountain destination? You can go hiking and oxygenate your lungs and muscles.

September: REHYDRATE AND RETAIN THE SKIN

Autumn is the ideal time to renew the skin and treat it of the problems derived from photoaging, such as dehydration and sagging (the sun destroys collagen). You will get juicier and brighter skin if you give it a shock treatment with vitamin C, either in a center or at home with flash ampoules and serums.

Cut your ends

We know that the return is hard but if you have taken care of your hair during the summer, we only recommend a tip cut and a recovery treatment in your salon. Do you fancy a change of look for the new season? Take a look at the haircuts that flatter you the most, based on your face shape.

October: PEELING TIME

A peel with antioxidant active ingredients is the best "investment" you can make for your skin. The benefits By removing impurities, the beauty treatments you do afterwards are more effective, because the ingredients penetrate better. You can exfoliate at home, but the results of a peel at a beauty center are more profound.

November: ERASE STAINS FROM YOUR FACE

The spots affect many women and are produced by an alteration in the production of melanin, either by the sun or by hormonal issues. Treatments to combat stains are better to start in winter, because, in the absence of sun, there will be no unwanted side effects. Many of the treatments in the cabin are complemented with the use of depigmenting creams at home and it is always recommended to use SPF 50 sun protection when going outside, even if it is cloudy.

December: EXPRESS CARE FOR THE HOLIDAYS

The rush (purchases, commitments) "force" us to resort to express beauty care. You can honor yourself with a treatment that combines pearl powder and / or a gold mask or resort to authentic vitamin cocktails, whose action is enhanced with the help of LED light. Radio frequency is one of the best options for tensioning. But in this case it is best to use a technology such as Thermage, which only requires one session and the results are noticeable in a few weeks.
