BB GLOW
Just Imagine being able to walk around with a permanent Instagram filter on your face…
Imagine waking up every morning with zero red spots and a perfectly even complexion. What would it feel like to have the look of a full base of makeup, every day, without ever buying a Beautyblender again? Think of how much time it would save to roll out of bed with foundation already on. Hell, think about how much money it could save over time. That's the promise of BB Glo, a microneedling procedure that inserts semi-permanent BB cream into the skin for coverage that lasts six months to a year.
First of all, what is semi-permanent BB cream?
I started performing BB Glo late this year. To me, the treatment sounded like either a game-changer or a Botched episode, with little room for gray area in between. But with my experience it only takes two treatments to smooth over imperfections and leave your skin looking like you're wearing a full-but-lightweight face of makeup. This is perfect for people who love the whole, My skin but better look. Think healthy glow.
I’ve been seeking out semi-permanent foundation after completing microblading training. After all, I thought, if we can put pigment into someone's eyebrows, why not into skin? I just started Googling permanent foundation, and I finally came across this.
What does the treatment entail?
The process is the same as microneedling, which works by rolling tiny needles across the skin. The microneedling device may sound like a form of medieval torture, but it's actually a highly effective way to increase the skin's production of collagen and elastin. The teeny pinpricks force the skin to heal and build up stronger than before, while the device also deposits serum deeper into the skin. Here, instead of injecting the skin with a vitamin C or line-smoothing serum, I insert makeup one-millimeter deep into the skin. Think of it like a pigment tattoo for your entire face. The entire treatment, including an 30 mins of numbing, takes about 1.5 to 2 hours.
The results look just as though you've woken up with a perfectly blended face of BB cream. It's going to even out the skin tone, eliminate hyperpigmentation, and hide minor defects and flaws in the skin. It's especially phenomenal for people with red skin, to eliminate rosacea, redness, and broken capillaries and unlike regular makeup, it won't wash off with a workout or in the shower. It's not going to clump like makeup or dissolve in a few hours or get dry because you have dry skin that day. It just looks like your face.
What does it cost?
$225 for your first treatment and $150 for your follow up sessions. Each BB Glow session is spaced out 4 weeks apart. There is very little to no downtime.
I wouldn't recommend this procedure on anyone with any sort of inflammatory skin condition like eczema, psoriasis, active acneic skin or cystic acne, anyone taking hormonal medication, pregnant, or breast feeding. Give Us a call to find out more and to book your BB Glow appt.
