What is a Chemical Peel?
Chemical peels come with different strengths and purpose, a peel is meant to speed up the recovery of the skin for the specific skin concern. A peel is a great add-on for clients who have started good home care along with their professional facials. Please note that we do not suggest to book a peel for your first facial with us. We always want to ensure your skin has been accustomed to ingredients, and eased into the process of utilizing peels.
Peels can help with acne, pigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles etc. After each peel please be aware that you may peel and flake (can take up to 10 days). During this time it's important to let your skin be, meaning no pulling or scratching peeling skin. If we interfere with the peeling process we may experience hyper/hypo pigmentation and possibly scarring. No makeup should be worn during the healing stage, and please stay away from direct sunlight. Once your peeling is complete you will reveal smooth and more even skin.
* Not suitable for pregnant or breastfeeding clients
What is Fire & Ice?

What is Micro-current?
Perfect add-on before that big event to give you a lift like no other! Think of micro-current as your face's personal trainer, it can help tighten and sculpt your face's muscles and skin. It's referred to as the natural facelift. It's safe and painless. This type of technology has been around since the 1800's as a treatment for compromised muscles and tissue (Bell's Palsy), and has of course improved since.

Who should get a customized facial?
At Art of Lash, we ONLY schedule our clients for customized facials.

All of our in-house products are safe and of the highest quality. We even carry products safe for our pregnant and nursing facial lovers.
