Lights, check. Gifts, check. Healthy diet, um pass? During this season, everything comes in excess from decorations, presents, and especially food. With holiday events and family parties, our diets fade and our pants get noticeably tighter. Awful to think about when you’re trying to look your absolute best for New Year’s Eve! It’s inhuman and cruel to have diets during the holiday season, so be smart and manage what you eat and enjoy without sacrificing flavor.

These bloggers live, breath, and obviously enjoy food! They’ve come up with some festive, delicious baking recipes that will make you the star of any party or dinner.

Say Au Revoir to Dry Winter Skin!


Even though the weather outside is frightful, that doesn’t mean your skin has to be too. For many, the cold, crisp days of winter signal the holidays, gifts, and family; but also dry, cracked skin. If you’ve ever experienced dry skin, it can be as uncomfortable as getting caught going back for seconds at the company holiday dinner.

But don’t be discouraged! You can take some preventative measures to help alleviate dry skin this season with three simple steps: hydrating, exfoliating, and protecting. And every savvy holiday shopping knows time is of the essence! To help keep you on your tight holiday schedule, the HydraFacial™ does all three in one :)

Step 1: Hydration

Our body is made up of 70% water, so it is essential to keep yourself hydrated. Like summer, our skin loses water throughout the day but it is even more elevated because we take in less water during winter months. Be sure to drink up! Externally, always moisturize the skin with products containing the key ingredient like hyaluronic acid, the best hydrating ingredient on the market. It holds as much as 1000 times it weight in water! HydraFacial™ treatments administer hyaluronic acid making skin instantly looking plumper. Keeping moisture within your body is the first major step in fighting itchy, dry skin.

Step 2: Exfoliation
Dull skin results from build-up of dead cells and dirt. In addition our skin is constantly exposed to toxic pollution and makeup. All these factors lead to extremely unappealing skin! Don’t you want to glow in every holiday picture? An important step in the HydraFacial™ is buffing away all harmful build-up to reveal your younger looking self. By exfoliating the skin often, you can help expel all the unwanted impurities and allow new skin cells to breathe. With the HydraFacial™’s zero downtime, it is safe to do even before pictures!

Step 3: Protection
The harsh, crisp winter winds are unforgiving, so you need to think about protection all winter long! Exfoliation leaves healthy skin ready to be nourished by rich, nutrients. The HydraFacial™ is more effective and efficient in Vortex-Fusing™ the skin in rich antioxidants. It ensures deep saturation and protection compared to manual application, which only covers minimal surface area.

Moisture and protection are the two key components to help achieve soft, glowing skin. Believe it or not, sunscreen is essential even during winter to help protect skin from harmful UV rays. The HydraFacial™ Daily take-home products contain the same performing ingredient as the professional treatment and can help augment your treated skin while sustaining the HydraFacial™ glow!

Beautiful, lush skin is possible even during harsh winter months! Don’t hide your face from others or yourself this season. Let your healthy skin be a lasting gift to yourself this holiday.

Wait, They Did What?

The next time you complain about your skin, be thankful for the safe, fast acting solutions offered today. In celebration of Thanksgiving, we thought it would be appropriate to give thanks to the women before us who have gone to great lengths to allow us to be where we are today in skin care. Our ancestors went through thick and thin to achieve “beautiful skin”. Completely unaware of the dangers of certain ingredients, women experimented with chemicals we now know are extremely dangerous. All this for the sake of looking good! Scary, right? Let’s just say, we’ve got it easy.

Modern skincare has come a very long way since ancient times. Women reverted to drastic measure to achieve a desired look. Until the mid-twentieth century, pale, ghostly skin was desired by all women because of its association with high social standing. Here are some of the fun facts about the “poison of choice” in which these women used (click to enlarge photo):



There is some good that came from all this self-induced torture for the sake of beauty. In the midst of all the dangerous chemicals, women did use lots of natural ingredients we see today. Rosemary, horse chestnut, seaweed, white tea, eggs, olive oil, honey, milk, and almond oil were some of the popular ingredients found in their self-made skin care products. When you really examine the ingredients and methods used today, it may surprise you about the similarities they share with the HydraFacial™ Daily Skin Care line. The Antiox Daily™, UV Smart™ Daily SPF 30 sunscreen, and the Beta HD™Daily are rich in vitamins A, E, & C as well as contain hydrating ingredients such as honey extract. Even in ancient times, women understood the key to healthy skin was constant hydration.

Regardless of method or ingredient, women have always searched for the same common ground, beautiful skin. Thanks to these women, we are now able to enjoy the many luxuries of skin care without harming ourselves. Let’s celebrate these brave women by continuing the tradition of maintaining Skin Health for Life™ with the Hydrafacial™ Daily Skin care line this season! Please see your local provider for the Skin Health™ in a bag holiday special.

Skin Cancer Awareness Month - Be UV Smart™!

One in five Americans will develop skin cancer in the course of a lifetime*. Chances are you or someone close to you has been affected by skin cancer - maybe a family member, old friends, or even collegues. Skin cancer has rapidly grown to be the most common form of cancer in the United States, and yet many are still disregarding the facts.

It seems pretty scary when you really start to think about it. Every day we are exposed to UV rays - even when it's cloudy; even sitting next to a window; even just driving in your car! UV rays are the biggest contributors to developing skin cancer. The solution is simple really - you should wear UVA and UVB protection EVERY day, even when you are only outside for a short while.

If you are one of those people still making monthly or worse, weekly visits to a tanning salon, consider this: Indoor tanning may increase your risk by 1.5 - 2.5 times*.

As if skin health isn't enough - lets look at it from an aesthetic point of view -"Up to 90 percent of the visible changes commonly attributed to aging are caused by the sun*." When your skin is exposed to UV rays and free radicals, your skin begins to loose elastin and collagen, you may develop fine lines and wrinkles, or you may start to see age spots and discoloration.

So, be smart about sun exposure and get UV Smart™ to protect yourself. Our SPF 30 formula provides broad spectrum UVA and UVB protection and it is lightweight and oil free, so you can wear it every day. It is also packed with antioxidants like Vitamin A, C, E, Green Tea Extract, and CoQ10 that help battle free radicals.

Try UV Smart™ Daily along with our other HydraFacial™ Skin Health products at one of our providers near you - visit http://www.hydrafacial.com/.

Antiox™ Daily

Antioxidants - the big buzz word in the beauty industry. You hear about them all the time but do you even really know what they are or what they do?

First lets talk a little chemistry (without getting too technical =] ). Oxidation is a chemical process that removes an electron from an element, making it weak. Oxidation is caused by free radicals - things like pollution, smog, smoke, and UV radiation. Antioxidants reverse these effects and prevent oxidation from occurring, and therefore creating a protective barrier.

So how does this relate to your skin? Every day our skin is exposed to free radicals that target the collagen and elastin in our skin - two important chemicals that keep us looking young. Antioxidants help prevent oxidation of these chemicals. The best part is, they build up within your skin, creating a barrier.

The HydraFacial™ procedure infuses antioxidants into your skin, helping to keep your skin healthy. Our Antiox™ Daily solution has the same performing ingredients and is designed to maintain and even increase you antioxidant level between treatments.

Antiox™ Daily contains antioxidants such as Vitamins A, E, and White Tea Extract along with Hyaluronic Acid to deeply moisturize your skin. The smooth silky texture will leave you with a hydrated, healthy glow.

All this month you can enter to win Antiox™ Daily as part of your HydraFacial™ Skin Health Regimen starter kit. Take our quiz and enter your email at the end for a chance to win over $100 worth of product! Only One Day Left!!!

Beta-HD™ Daily



4 letter curse words. You hear them on TV, in music, and from many teens and 20s. We have become accustomed to it - and it seems like there is no escape. It might be hard to decide what the worst 4-letter curse word is, but I'm here to tell ya - it's ACNE.

We are completely bombarded with acne this and acne that - creams and lotions and masks and instant zip-zapping power - but the acne persists, and sometimes worsens. To top it off, we are given countless reasons why.

But the fact is, there are no facts - only suggestions. And I've got a good one for you. Once a month, relax, kick back, and get a HydraFacial™. Yes, acne treatments can be enjoyable :) AND you can help several acne issues at once.

The HydraFacial™ starts by deep cleansing and exfoliating your skin - it's like starting with a fresh slate. Then the HydraFacial™ includes extractions to get deep into pores and remove the built up that causes blackheads. The HydraFacial™ finishes with an antioxidant serum packed with vitamins and moisturizing Hyaluronic Acid.

So, what do you do for the rest of the month? Wash daily with the gentle Activ™ foaming cleanser and use Beta-HD™ Daily. Stop using those harsh chemicals that dry out your skin and burn when applied. The Beta-HD™ Daily feels silky smooth when applied and helps control oil throughout the day. It uses salicylic acid, commonly used for sensitive skin, so it is safe for all skin types.

All this month you can enter to win Beta-HD™ as part of your HydraFacial™ Skin Health Regimen starter kit. Take our quiz and enter you email at the end for a chance to win over $100 worth of product!

DermaBuilder Daily



Many put up a good fight in the war on wrinkles - but maybe it's time to change your stategy. When it comes to options, what can you do? Many don't want to use needles (Yikes!), most don't want to have surgery (Ouch!), and countless over the counter creams make empty promises (Sigh!). So what's left?

Well - there's HydraFacial™ that can help with that! Everyone loves the immidiate results, the radiant glow, and the pure healthiness it restores to their skin. So why not continue to see the same results all month long?

As part of the HydraFacial™ Skin Regimen, you can use DermaBuilder™ Daily to help combat those stubborn fine lines and wrinkles. Plus it will help you extend and enhance your treatment results, and is considered an essential part of the procedure.

Here's the science behind it: DermaBuilder™ Daily is a complex of peptides that help to repair and improve the structure of the Dermal-Epidermal Junction by stimulating collagen and elastin protiens.

Simply put, it reduces the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, improves skin structural strength, enhances elasticity, and increases skin firmness.

And now you have the chance to try it for FREE! Take the Quiz and enter to win your HydraFacial™ Skin Regimen today!

Time For A Spring Cleaning!

It's that time of year again when we pull out our brooms, mops, and sponges and go to work. All of the junk we have collected through the winter season has got to go. We clean out closets to make room for the seasons hottest fashions; we empty out the fridge: no more leftovers; we even capture a few bunnies - dust bunnies I mean.

Then, after cleaning every mirror in our house we start to realize - my face could use a spring cleaning too! Winter weather has left our skin dry and dull, and now it's time to shine.

You already know that HydraFacial™ can help with that - but maybe there is something else you can add to give you that glow - and that's a GlySal™ Peel. The HydraFacial™ GlySal™ Peel is completely unique! It is administered during your HydraFacial™ through the same specially designed HydroPeel® tips. The tip allows for deeper absorption, making the peel more effective. The tip simultaneously vacuums away the dead skin cells, resulting in little to no post peel sloughing.

The best part - there is no burning sensation that is usually expected from a traditional peel. Who has time to sit in front of a cooling fan, and frankly - who wants to? Now you won't have to! This peel is fast, effective, and aggressive, without making your face look like a battlefield.

The GlySal™ Peel is also perfect before any special occasion. With no down time, it is the ideal way to get picture perfect skin for any big event. Even InStyle Weddings ranked HydraFacial™ as one of their top treatments - a "Radiant Skin Shortcut."

The HydraFacial™ GlySal™ Peel is only offered at select locations, so ask your local provider or check out our provider page and look for the GlySal symbol at http://hydrafacial.com/html/providers.htm.

Battle of the Sexes - Anti-Aging Not Just A Woman's Battle


Men are simple - they like things to be easy and they don't want to sit around and wait. They are not touchy-feely and they don't care about ambiance. They do however want to look and feel good, without all the hassle. Women will take hours to get ready, but men - they are in and out in a flash.

Women are appearing younger and younger with each new aesthetic advance, while men seem to be getting older and older. Now men are starting to wise up - they are looking for simpler ways to achieve the same results.

HydraFacial™ is highly sought out by men for several reasons:
* It's fast - it takes as little as 15 minutes.
* It's immediate - they don't have to wait for weeks for results.
* It's simple - there's no "Froo Froo" involved - just science
* It's easy - Continue to see results at home with our take home solutions - they can be combined and applied in one easy step.

It is even fit for a prince - Prince Albert of Monaco has even traveled to the states to receive the royal treatment.

HydraFacial™ is also fast becoming a favorite among celebrities such as Matthew McConaughey and Ethan Hawk, but we wanted to check in with our leading man Travis to see his results:

How Travis maintains his good looks and charm

Travis has recently reconnected with old friends on Facebook who have commented on how great he looks - "I have a glow about me - I look energized." What has Travis noticed the most following his HydraFacial™ treatments? "Lines! I have a reduction in the lines around my eyes and forehead." He has also started using our SPF Sunscreen Lotion, which he loves: "Using SPF is like flossing - you don't realize how important it is until things go wrong. Now I use it every day."

Travis said he secret is taking care of himself from the inside out - even when life gets crazy, you have to make time to care for yourself. In addition to his HydraFacial™ skin care, Travis is still practicing Bikram Yoga and has a newfound love of brousing the Farmer's Markets for the freshest foods.

"The knowledge that Edge has given me has completely changed the way that I live."

What's up next for Travis

All this month Travis is up in Vancouver shooting a new film called Bind in which several friends take an innocent winter trip only to discover that one of them is a violent, bloody murderer... We just hope Travis makes it out alive!

Oscar Worthy Skin Care

The Academy Awards: Hollywood's biggest night. All the hottest stars arrive looking absolutely stunning and flawless, and we think, "How do they get such great skin?" Well the secrets out - and no it's not just because they have a team of people helping them. It's because they know how to care for their skin. They don't waste their time with drug store products; they look for quality and results.

And that's exactly what you will get from HydraFacial™. The HydraFacial™ procedure will give you immediate results and leave you glowing as bright as the Hollywood stars. The best part - it's not just a quick-fix-it procedure. The HydraFacial™ improves the quality of your skin, actually helping to making it healthy.

What do you need to get healthy skin? The first major factor is sun protection - and not just from a SPF. We are talking free radical protection, and that means antioxidants. The HydraFacial™ uses pneumatic application to infuse antioxidants, helping to restore your skin's health.

The second factor is maintanence. Over time dead skin cells and other residue can build up - the HydraFacial™ exfoliates it all away, but the difference is it hydrates symultaneously; that usual dry, peeling effect is eliminated. And now you can maintain and enhance your results with the take home kit - the same great ingredients used during the HydraFacial™ procedure can be purchased for every day care.

It's that easy!

HydraFacial Featured On The Doctors Show

Did you miss the new episode "The #1 Secret to Living Longer and Looking Younger (The Water Show)" on The Doctors national TV show Wednesday 2/17? Host Dr. Ordon and Launa Stone, RN (Owner of Stone Med Spa, Calabasas, CA) talked about the HydraFacial MD® procedure.

The HydraFacial™ is featured as a new anti-aging procedure that hydrates and infuses vitamins, antioxidants and hyaluronic acid into the skin while it cleanses the pores, extracts blackheads, whiteheads and impurities, and refreshes the skin.





HydraFacial MD® hydradermabrasion is the latest, non-invasive skin resurfacing and rejuvenation technology. This advanced skin treatment, administered by professionals, delivers proven and immediate results without the use of harsh chemicals or lasers.

HydraFacial™ is the only procedure available today that can infuse antioxidants, hyaluronic acid, peptide complex, and nutrient skin-enhancing serums into the skin through pneumatic application. The HydraFacial™ combines cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, hydration and antioxidant protection simultaneously, resulting in clearer, healthier skin with no discomfort or downtime. It targets fine lines and wrinkles, congested and enlarged pores, oily or acne-prone skin, hyperpigmentation and brown spots.

The HydraFacial™ is considered one step above Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) for skin rejuvenation (Bruce M. Freedman, M.D. F.A.C.S., Rejuvenation Stairway, 2007). Studies showed that skin antioxidant levels increased by 30% after a HydraFacial™ procedure using its antioxidant hyaluronic acid serum. It augments IPL results and reduces IPL's adverse effects (See Studies Below). Top medical centers like Brigham and Women's Hospital, Columbia University Medical Center, and the Cleveland Clinic use the HydraFacial™ system.

The HydraFacial™ provides immediate results and can be used on all skin types - even sensitive skin and skin of color. People around the world, including Prince Albert of Monaco and A-list Hollywood celebrities use HydraFacial™ to keep their skin healthy and naturally radiant.

Simple Ways to Help Haiti


When tragedy strikes, for a moment the whole world stands still. We take a moment to really consider who and what is most important in our lives. We tend to forget how much we take for granted, and in times of need, we are reminded of how important it is to give something back.

Many celebrities took action and contributed to the relief efforts: George Clooney held the "Hope For Haiti" telethon; The Grammy's broadcast Haiti relief suggestions and stars like Miley Cirus are donating their dresses; and our favorite actor Travis Aaron Wade attended his friends birthday in which all guests had to donate upon arrival.

If you are not a celebrity, it can be difficult to know exactly how to help, but if you look closely, simple, everyday activities offer ways to help. We can donate without all the extravagance through organizations like the Red Cross, Doctors without Borders, Unicef, and Care - for some it is as easy as a text message.

Even local businesses are helping out - Today we are recognizing Reflections MedSpa in Oxford Mississippi and all those who have donated and contributed to the Haiti relief efforts. Last week at Reflections, people were taking care of their skin and learning about how to prevent damage, all while they were contributing to the Haiti Relief Efforts.

Today's Provider: Reflections MedSpa

Last week, Reflections held a Haiti Relief event in which all proceeds went to the Doctors without Borders Fund. Men and women made donations and received free HydraFacial™ intro treatments.

Located in Oxford, Mississippi, Reflections MedSpa addresses all of your skin concerns: from acne to age spots, fine lines or deep wrinkles, Senior Aesthetician Mary Unsell has got you covered.

Her HydraFacial™ treatment is tailored to fit your skin needs and includes the face and neck. A few extra perks of her treatment are the face mask and hand massage, making her HydraFacial™ ultra relaxing!

Now is the perfect time to stop in and see Mary! HydraFacial™ is the service of the month for February, which means you get an extra $10 off - perfect if you needed some extra cash to donate :)

You can also buy 5 HydraFacial™ treatments and get 1 FREE!
