SkinScience Institute~Spa Review

Yesterday I got the opportunity to take a friend (Kris) with me to a Utah esthetician school. It was a rainy drizzly day and we were both up to an escape! We headed out a little early so we could have a nice lunch before we got to work relaxing at the spa. We went to the Skin Science Institute and it was very easy to find.

The Skin Science Institute has about 50 students that work on clients under the supervision of instructors.

We had to ring the little bell for help, but a student came right out to help us get started. We filled out a bit of paperwork, just simple questions about skin type, medications and skin care habits.

Next I was taken to a little room that looked a lot like this one. I was given a little wrap to wear (I just had to take off everything above the waist) so my clothes wouldn’t get soiled.  The student that worked on me turned on the mister which felt great on my skin, and got to work on my facial. I loved the smell of the different products that she used and the light hands she used as she applied each product was wonderful! She applied a mask to my face at one point and while it did it’s work she gave me a wonderful shoulder and neck massage. The whole time she worked there was soothing music and low light, so relaxing!

When I was done and dressed again I was led to this waiting area where I waited for another student who was going to tint my eyebrows and eyelashes and wax my eyebrows. I didn’t wait long before I was escorted to another little room. The student that worked on my this time talked to me about eyebrows and color and we decided on a nice light brown and blue black eyelashes. After she got them all dyed she applied a wax that set up hard and then she just pulled it off. I was amazed at how nice it worked with out any pain too! After she finished up she led me back down to the check in desk where I waited for Kris to finish up. My face felt wonderful and the student at the desk said my eyebrows looked great! It’s nice to know that if I don’t wear any makeup for the next month or so I won’t look so washed out. Normally you can’t even see my eyelashes or eyebrows! I think I will be finding my way back to Salt Lake to the day spa soon!
