The summer is coming to an end and to be honest: I am really looking forward to it. This is truly a luxury problem, but I was so fed up with that heat. My house was more of a Finnish sauna than an Amsterdam apartment and I couldn't find any coolness anywhere. My rain dances seem to finally be working, because it is now even weather where you can put on a jacket.
The end of summer always means me-time for me, because I never get around to it during the summer months. Busy with work, busy with friends, busy with weekend drinks, festivals, fun outings... Absolutely lovely, of course, but not the best for my skin. With that heat, I dutifully applied sunscreen every day, but my face hasn't really improved (but thankfully not burned). So yes: September also means a nice facial treatment for me again.
I already tipped you earlier BLOY Institute, where I did The Hollywood Buccal Facial for the first time. Such a lovely treatment that I swear by since then, but I wondered: are there also certain treatments that are really ideal for after summer? I asked them and of course they had an answer: you want to book these five late summer treatments for yourself.
1. Venus Viva
This is the perfect treatment if you have more pigmentation spots after summer; they are well treated with this treatment. Your pores, redness, and wrinkles will also be significantly reduced.
2. The Pascaud fruit acid peel
Handy: with this treatment you have zero downtime, so you walk out the door glowing right away. This treatment helps with the renewal of your cells and is very good for tackling dry and/or sun-damaged skin. You are absolutely after summer proof afterwards.
3. IPL Full Face Photo Rejuvenation
A mouthful, but then you have something; one of my favorites, this. The treatment is also called Photo Facial because your skin is so even after this treatment that it looks like you used a filter. Loooove it.
4. Medical skin pen micro-needling treatment
Also one of my favorites by the way. The fine lines become less, just like pigmentation spots and acne scars. Your skin is beautifully even afterwards and it works based on collagen induction therapy: really good for taking care of your skin from the inside out.
5. ME Line treatment
If you have pigmentation that hardly responds to other treatments, this could be the solution, even if you have the pigmentation disorder melasma. This is a four-month course in which you receive two mask treatments and a home package. So you will be busy with it for a while, but with results: the pigmentation spots become so much less.
