Self-care should always be a priority, as the past few months of staying home as we deal with the ongoing health crisis has revealed. After the long, cold months of winter followed by the inability for regular facial and body care treatments, everyone is seeing the effects stress and neglect on their skin. While many have attempted to provide themselves with at home treatments—Nielsen reported an increase in cotton ball sales of 57% in April, as well as a 50% increase in the sale of nail polish remover—nothing can replace the benefits of a full spa pedicure.
As clients slowly return the spa and salon, it’s important to recognize the need for more intensive treatments to alleviate many of the additional skin concerns manifesting the feet, including dry, cracked and compromised skin. To do this, I have created a foot peel protocol especially for this area, utilizing the same type of peel used on the face, to help rejuvenate and slough off dead skin.
Combining an invigorating foot and leg dry brush massage with a professional peel followed by a soothing, moisturizing foot massage with nutrient rich Repêchage® Seaweed Body Cream with Seaweed, Aloe and Vitamin E, the Repêchage® Peel the Heel Foot Treatment is the perfect upgrade to your spa or salon’s pedicure to restore feel to sandal-worthy softness.
Here is all the information you need to add this spectacular upgrade to your pedicure salon or spa menu with great results.
