Hello there, welcome to my first Onyx blog.  My name is Krystyna and I have been a licensed Esthetician for over 6 years.  I have worked for two of the biggest Day Spa chains in America. I have seen and treated many different skin types in my career.  After being offered a lead position, I decided to branch out and do my own thing with the help of my best friend.  That is how Onyx began.  Onyx is my baby, and I have poured all of my heart and energy into our customized facial treatments. I really hope you enjoy them!

Today, I’d like to write about our exclusive Onyx membership facial and its benefits.  At Onyx, we pride ourselves in providing a quality experience and customer satisfaction.  Our exclusive membership facial consists of a skin consultation. This is a vital step in identifying your skin type and its' needs.  Then, we can provide a customized treatment that will leave your skin feeling clean, hydrated, softer, and most importantly, rejuvenated. 

We focus on cleaning your pores with a Sanitas facial cleanser.  Sanitas is my personal favorite esthetician brand, and I am thrilled to have them as our Onyx gold supplier.  After we get all of the makeup, oils and dirt out of your beautiful face, we take a good look at your bare skin to determinate what facial would be best for you. 

Then we exfoliate any dead skin cells, which encourages the skin’s renewal process.  As we age, layers of dead skin cells pile up so it is highly recommended to book once every 3-4 weeks because it takes your skin 28 days to turnover each cycle.  Another purpose of the exfoliation process is to remove any excess oils and dirt that build up and cause blackheads and pimples.  Extraction time! Yes, this is my favorite step, I love digging and removing all of the dirt and built up oils.  I promise we are gentle and use the best in class tools to make sure we do not irritate your skin.

Once the exfoliation and extractions are done, we focus on hydrating and soothing the skin through a customized face mask and a décolleté massage.  So, while the face mask is working on hydrating and giving you that je ne sais quoi glow, we pivot our attention to provide a relaxed experience by massaging one of the most tense areas of your body - your neck. 

As the facial comes to an end, we apply a Sanitas toner to close and refresh your pores. A serum is applied to target you skin's specific needs, serums are light weight but penetrate the surface deeply to correct any problem areas.  The eye cream is used to moisturize any crows feet and other concerns. Finally, a specific moisturizer is used alongside a lip balm to bring out your best self!  Open your eyes and see your outer beauty while feeling your inner peace.

We hope to see you soon!
