BEAUTY~WELLNESS~FOMO~FIELD NOTES
Everyone is always asking me for recommendations on beauty, wellness and travel so I decided to start a list of all of my favorites, all the places I want to try, all of my instagram FOMO moments and where I hangout frequently
Currently crushing on~.TESS ADAMS HOLISTIC WELLNESS
FACIALS~ Do you ever feel like FOMO when looking at all of the wellness & beauty posts on IG? Well I do..so I have started a search for the Fountain of Youth. My first stop was Take Care in Venice. I heard about Tess and Sadie on the Podcast-To be Magnetic. So far I have been two times but since we are on lockdown, my Fountain of Youth quest came to a screeching halt. I am now doing beauty treatments at home and having lots of time to write about travels & daydream of future beauty treatments. For now I'll share a little about Micro current and Micro needling.
Tess is an expert at both. Upon meeting her I knew I was in good hands. The studio matches her vibe...very laid back, calm, nurturing and inviting.
MICRO CURRENT FACIAL~They had me at "Natural Facelift" Micro current is a safe and painless facial that firms, softens fine lines, reduces puffiness, tightens pores and increases circulation. Micro current is a low level electric current that mirrors the body's own natural waves. This treatment not only energizes the skin and muscle cells but also helps in lymphatic drainage, regeneration, re-educating all while creating healthier skin. You can see the difference after one treatment especially the brow lift and jaw line. The whole experience is quite relaxing. You are surrounded by crystals to help balance and clear energies and calmed by a warm biomat, which is really a treatment on it's own. Next time I will try the body patches which slim, tone and break up cellulite.
You will definitely leave feeling relaxed and glowing.
MICRO NEEDLING~
Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment in which tiny punctures are created in the skin using micro-fine needles. This triggers the body's wound healing process, stimulating collagen and elastin production. During the process they use a topical application of antioxidants, amino acids, essential fatty acids, organic vitamins and minerals to enhance the experience.
I was a little nervous with this one because I wasn't sure how my skin would react or if it would hurt or how I would look on Monday morning at work. Tess has a way of calming you and I had the utmost trust in her hands. It didn't hurt. I figured I had survived a series of Fraxel treatments so I would be ok. I didn't look crazy, in fact no one even noticed. Can't wait to try it again.
Take Care offers an array of skincare and other delights including Stem Cell, Microdermabrasion, LED light therapy, Meditation, Oxygen, Human Design & so much more. Info below~
Located in Venice at 1733 Abbot Kinney Blvd.
