DID YOUR SKIN SUDDENLY GET DRIER THIS WEEK? 🍂

It might not be your skincare… it could be your indoor heat.

As temperatures drop, we turn up the heat inside. Heated indoor air tends to have lower humidity, which can increase water loss from the skin and leave it feeling tight, flaky, dull, or dehydrated.

So what should you change?

💧 Keep your skin hydrated with water soluble skincare
🌿 Moisturize after bathing while your skin is still slightly damp
🚿 Skip overly hot showers that can strip your skin’s natural oils
✨ Gently exfoliate so dead surface buildup doesn’t interfere with your skincare routine
💦 And don’t forget to hydrate your body from the inside too!

Your skin doesn’t necessarily need more products when the seasons change…

IT NEEDS THE RIGHT PRODUCTS AND THE RIGHT ROUTINE. 🌿

Need help transitioning your skin into fall? Come see us at Bella and we’ll help you figure out exactly what your skin needs.

✨ Because at Bella, we believe a healthy body is a beautiful body. ✨

RAINY DAYS WERE MADE FOR FACIALS. 🌧️🍂

Fall has officially arrived in the Pacific Northwest… and your skin knows it too.

As the weather turns cooler and we start spending more time indoors with the heat on, our skin can begin feeling drier, tighter, duller, and more dehydrated.

This is the perfect time to transition your skincare for the season.

At Bella, every facial is customized to what your skin needs that day. We cleanse, exfoliate away dull surface buildup, replenish hydration, nourish the skin with our organic skincare, and yes… every facial includes your décolleté. 🌿

And on a cozy, rainy day like today?

There’s something pretty wonderful about climbing into a warm facial bed and letting someone else take care of you for a while. 🥰

YOUR SKIN CHANGES WITH THE SEASONS… YOUR SKINCARE SHOULD TOO. 🍂

Book your Bella Facial and let’s get your skin fall ready. 🌺

COLD SEASON IS HERE… LET’S TALK VITAMIN D. ☀️

As the seasons change and we spend less time outside, it’s a great time to think about vitamin D.

Vitamin D isn’t just about healthy bones. It also plays an important role in normal immune function, including supporting immune cells involved in your body’s natural defenses.

And here’s something many people don’t realize…

Your skin naturally produces vitamin D3 when it receives UVB light. ☀️

That’s one of the reasons we love D Light Therapy at Bella, especially as our sunny Pacific Northwest days start disappearing.

Supporting your body before you’re feeling run down is part of taking care of yourself.

DON’T WAIT UNTIL YOU FEEL DEPLETED TO START SUPPORTING YOUR BODY. 🌿

Book your D Light Therapy session today. 🌺

WHY DOES A HAIR SOMETIMES GROW BACK INTO YOUR SKIN? 👀

That little bump may actually be an ingrown hair.

After waxing, new growth has to make its way back through the opening of the follicle. Dead skin buildup, friction, or the direction the hair grows can cause it to become trapped beneath the skin or curl back into it.

The secret to smoother waxing results?

CONSISTENCY + EXFOLIATION + HYDRATION. 🌿

Between waxes, gently exfoliate to remove dead skin buildup and keep your skin moisturized and healthy.

At Bella, we carry dry brushes and our Bella Body Care products, giving you everything you need to exfoliate, cleanse, and moisturize your skin between appointments. 🌺

And please… don’t dig at ingrown hairs! This can cause inflammation, skin damage, and dark marks.

SMOOTH SKIN ISN’T JUST ABOUT REMOVING THE HAIR. IT’S ABOUT CARING FOR THE SKIN UNDERNEATH IT.

WHY DO SOME PEOPLE TAN EASILY… WHILE OTHERS BURN? ☀️

It comes down largely to melanin and how your skin responds to light.

When UV light reaches your skin, it stimulates melanocytes, the cells responsible for producing melanin. Melanin is the pigment that creates your tan, but it also plays an important role in your skin’s natural protection system.

Everyone starts with a different amount and type of melanin, which is why one person can develop color quickly while another needs much more time.

And this is exactly why more time isn’t always better.

At Bella, D Light Therapy sessions are customized to your skin and gradually increased as your skin develops more pigment.

THE BEST TAN ISN’T RUSHED.
IT’S BUILT. 🌺

Yes, when it’s done correctly.

Microblading isn’t about drawing a solid eyebrow onto your face. Individual hairlike strokes are carefully placed to work with your natural brow growth, shape, facial structure, and coloring.

At Bella, I custom mix our organic pigments for each client rather than choosing a one size fits all brow color. Your brow shape is also customized specifically for your face.

The goal is soft, natural looking brows that beautifully enhance what you already have.

We don’t want someone looking at you and thinking…

“She had her eyebrows done.”

We want them thinking…

“HER BROWS LOOK AMAZING.” 🌺

There’s a difference!

Dry skin lacks oil, while dehydrated skin lacks water. Even oily and acne prone skin can be dehydrated.

When skin is lacking water, it can feel tight, look dull, make fine lines more noticeable, and struggle to maintain a healthy skin barrier.

That’s why I love our Hydro Facial. 💦

We remove dead surface buildup, deeply cleanse, and replenish your skin with hydration and nourishing organic, water soluble skincare.

Sometimes your skin doesn’t need more oil…

IT NEEDS WATER. 💦🌿

Because shaving only cuts the hair at the surface.

Waxing removes the entire hair from the root, which means your follicle has to begin the growth process again before you ever see that hair above the skin.

With consistent waxing, regrowth can become finer, softer, and less noticeable, and some follicles can eventually stop producing hair altogether.

That’s why I recommend staying on a regular 4 to 6 week waxing schedule and leaving the razor behind. 😍

LESS STUBBLE. LONGER LASTING SMOOTHNESS. 🌺
