Pumpkin Peel San Diego

Did you know that aside from tasting good, pumpkins also help in achieving a smoother, acne-free complexion? Unknown to many, this yellow-orange-ish fruit is packed with essential nutrients that promote cell turnover and brightens the skin. In addition, slathering it the skin reduces the sign of aging so if you want to have a flawless, younger complexion, consider our pumpkin peel skin treatment now!

 

WHAT IS PUMPKIN PEEL?

Basically, pumpkin peel is used for gentle exfoliation. The enzymes that it contains provide the right vitamins and nutrients that your skin needs. Like regular facial services, it lasts for about an hour, depending on the skin condition and additional treatments provided.

During the application, you might feel a little discomfort and tightening but unlike other chemical peels, pumpkin peels are more tolerable. To see optimal results, it’s best to have a series of this peel at least once or twice a month.

 

BENEFITS OF PUMPKIN PEEL

Pumpkins contain Vitamin A and beta-carotene which promotes blood circulation and healing of the skin. It also provides clarity and smoothness in just one session. Since this is gentle, those with sensitive skin can take advantage of this too without worrying about irritation and breakout. Other advantages of pumpkin peel include increased hydration in the outer layer of the skin, promotes cell turnover, lightened and toned pigmentation, reduced wrinkles and fine lines, and reduced acne breakouts. It also boosts collagen production, which is an important part if you want to achieve a glowing, vibrant complexion. In addition, this enzyme treatment provides antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits while exfoliating dead skin cells.

If you think you can benefit from this treatment, don’t hesitate to give us a call. Our licensed estheticians are more than willing to offer professional advice and assessment to know the best facial treatment for your skin.

 

HOW IS PUMPKIN PEEL FACIAL DONE?

Like other chemical peels, the pumpkin peel will be directly applied to the face and will be left for 5 to 10 minutes, depending on your skin’s condition. The next step involves neutralizing the peel, stimulation, and exfoliation. Often described as “an intense facial”, you might feel a slight sting, mild irritation, and dryness, which are normal results. To avoid dehydration and moisture loss, a moisturizer is applied to the skin. Be sure to apply a sunscreen to protect your skin from sun damage. Like other chemical peel-related results, your skin may become more sensitive than it was before you had the treatment.

If you have no time or have a limited budget, you can opt for over-the-counter (OTC) pumpkin peels and apply it at home, but usually those options are very weak compared to the strengths we can provide. However, you should expect that it’s not as intense or effective as the ones provided in facial spas. If you want to optimal results, Waxing and Skincare by Celeste’s skin experts will help you.

WHAT SHOULD YOU EXPECT FROM US?

At Waxing and Skincare by Celeste, our goal is to provide every customer in San Diego the best facial experience and how do we do that? First, by assessing the skin to provide the best treatment and products offered. When you arrive in our place, our certified estheticians will help you understand your skin condition and the right approach to resolve it. We want to make sure that you are comfortable first before proceeding with the next step – the treatment.

Before the actual pumpkin treatment, we will clean your skin using a gentle cleanser. This will remove excess sebum, dirt, makeup, debris, and other products in your skin. This is a vital part to ensure that the other steps involved will be effective. Next, we prepare your skin by applying an acidic base to help exfoliation. Then the fun part – applying the pumpkin peel on your face.

We will leave the peel in your skin for a few minutes, which may feel warm or tingling. It will then shift to a tightening sensation. Our pumpkin peel belongs to Level I, meaning it is gentle and not as intense as the other chemical peels. There’s no downtime and you can see visible results right after the treatment. To finish the treatment, we apply a moisturizer to avoid moisture loss. We recommend that you continue moisturizing your skin at home to nourish the new skin you have.

This place is amazing! I got my first Brazilian wax ever done by Kristine who was so nice and talked me through everything. And then just recently had my second wax by Marcela and she was incredibly sweet. Both were very detailed and took their time to make sure everything was perfect. I will definitely be returning here for future waxes.

I went there for the first time to get my second Brazilian ever and I loved it! Their staff is very friendly and they definitely know what they’re doing. I can confirm they use good quality products as my skin felt smooth and perfect afterward. I’ll be a regular and would totally recommend!

Hands down one of the best skincare and waxing spas. I was able to make my appointment within an hour of my call and the staff was professional and polite. My esthetician, Marcela, was awesome. She made sure I was comfortable and she was very particular. You can tell she is a perfectionist and loves her job

Brittney B.

Celeste is so sweet. I had only gotten waxed a couple of times before meeting her and was always uncomfortable with it. Once I started going here so made me feel at ease and I go every 4-5 weeks now (that’s huge for me!). Her location is super cute and in a convenient location. She is quick and gets the job done in less than 30 minutes. Highly recommend going there for any facials or waxing needs.

Adela T.

My first time going in for a Brazilian! I was very nervous and worried about how much it was going to hurt! The staff was extremely helpful and Celeste made the process go as smoothly as possible. Very knowledgeable and kept my mind off the waxing 🙂 Of course it hurt, but was tolerable. I will definitely be going in again to see Celeste. I definitely recommend checking them out.
