BEFORE: This was the start of my facial
AFTER: Read below for more photos and details
I had such a great time at Hand & Stone getting my Image Skincare Clinical Organic facial last weekend. Ava and Meg were there to greet me and take me through the process of getting the Image Skincare clinical facial for the first time. For me, my last facial was in 2019 before the pandemic and I have just been taking care of my skin at home so I really needed one!
I was welcomed into a serene dimly lit room where all of the Image Skincare products were waiting for me along with a warmed bed, blankets, and a wrap towel dress. There are some great things I would like to mention here: the products are gluten free and Hand and Stone has really great hours 9am to 9pm so you can come in for your self care before or after work easily.
The clinical facials that are offered by Image Skincare are as follows:
OXYGENATING FACIAL
This deluxe, nourishing treatment with nurturing botanicals, brightening antioxidants, and soothing aloe vera helps skin look restored, balanced and healthy - the natural way.
ORGANIC LIFT
This luxurious treatment infuses oxygen, plant-derived stem cell extracts, peptides and enzymatic botanicals into the skin - leaving it luminous, glowing and refreshed.
MD® POWER-C PEEL
This high-performance treatment combines powerful vitamin C with exfoliating AHAs and fruit enzymes to nourish, firm and visibly brighten the skin.

From what I was told Hand & Stone is a franchise and not all of them offer the clinical Image Skincare facials so you will want to call and check before making an appointment.
My Opinion: My skin looks amazing and better than it has looked in the last two years and I am so happy about that. My skin feels so soft, it's clean, it looks bright and I look like I actually have foundation on when it is just my bare skin. I would not only return again, but I would highly recommend it to my friends and family (and subscribers). My skin feels very smooth and even in texture and I had no irritation after the facial. I waited a few days to resume wearing makeup as recommended by Meg the Esthetician who provided the awesome service I received.
PHOTOS ARE IN ORDER AS THE FACIAL PROCEEDS: We started out with an exfoliant and I explained any skin issues I have which was lack of moisture retention and I have some rosacea that is triggered by my autoimmune diseases. Meg examined my skin under a light and determined what treatment was best for me.
This is the cooling mask which felt so good! I know it looks funny, but you won't know how it looks because no one will be taking photos of you when you visit.
What I found to be great is that this facial does include a lymphatic drainage massage to the face, neck, decollate and upper chest; This was so relaxing and rejuvenating to me. I felt that it was beneficial to my overall well-being and left my skin glowing and my muscles relaxed in my face, neck, and chest where I hold so much tension!
We wrapped up with a Vitamin C booster, Daily Defense moisturizer SPF 50, Restoring Youth Serum, eye serum, peptide creme, a balancing antioxidant serum and a balancing lip complex. Look at the glow on my skin!!!!!
