Yes gals, you heard it here first…being “fashionable” doesn’t necessarily only mean that you have impeccable taste when you shop till you drop. It also means that you care about your overall wellness – in other words, you should always put a fresh face forward. If your skin is glowing, clothes will look even better on you, you’ll carry yourself more confidently and well let’s face it, people will notice. You’ll hear whispers – “her skin is flawless – she looks so fabulous”. And you will, I promise, especially if you visit my new favorite spa in Austin, TX – Luster Spa.

When you make an appointment for your treatment, you’ll meet Ms. Sara Berens – spa extraordinaire and one of the most rad chicks I’ve met! Sara is founder and owner of Luster Spa and she is the mastermind behind all her services – from waxing to massage, this lady is a true master of her craft! She has been in this industry for 10+ years and it shows. She is beyond knowledgeable when it comes to skin care and she is passionate about what she does – something I admire greatly about her. In short, she had me at hello! She didn’t even have to give me the facial – I was already a fan!
BUT, since I had made the trip out there, and my skin was screaming for some attention, I let her work her “Luster Magic”. She gave me a 75-minute custom facial starting with a steam treatment, followed by an amazing skin repair mask. While the mask gave my skin some love, Sara did a mini massage – AH-mazing. The facial ended with another rejuvenation treatment and, as an added bonus, Sara cleaned up my slightly crazed eyebrows. She did an amazing job – a little shaping and elimination of the blonde uni-brow was just what I needed. Needless to say, one week post facial my skin is still glowing, break-outs have been totally minimized and I’m wearing less concealor – which is a HUGE relief since I hate wearing a lot of make up in the summer. I think I’ve thanked Sara about fifty times since I left, but seriously, she’s amazing and her facial is to. die. for.
Now the reason I am raving about the power of the facial is because with summer weather rapily approaching, many of us are already planning our extensive tanning sessions on the weekends. These pool/beach/lake dates mean sunburns and dry, flaky skin. I know, for many of us, the sun may clear up the random zit-uations we hate, but your skin still needs to be given proper attention. Sara’s facial is the perfect place to start. She’ll rehydrate your dry skin and provide tips to keep you looking at your best. Plus, when she's done there is a chance you'll experience partial paralyzation because you are so totally relaxed. All women strive for a flawless complexion and I'm certain that one session at Luster Spa will give you the jumpstart you need. As fashionistas, it’s important that we not only wear the season’s top trends, but that we glow while we strut our stuff.
Are you ready for your glow? If so, today is your lucky day, Sara is giving away 2 (two) 75-minute custom facials at her salon in North Austin. So, how can you win? Comment on the post and fill in the blank:

I need flawless skin for my two fabulous celebrations!...my 30th birthday and my 1st year wedding anniversary - all between June 25th and 28th. I won't be going out of town (unfortunately - but saving up for a condo is the priority). But we hope to go to Europe in the fallwith our tax credit if everything works out. :)
ReplyDeleteThe custom facial sounds amazing - I hope to be able to try it and tell others how awesome it is! Nothing like having flawless, glowing skin to make me feel and look younger when 30 is right around te corner!
Thanks,

I need flawless skin for my fabulous summer vacation to Port Aransas, the best beach in Texas!
ReplyDeleteHi! I used to go to Sara for waxing when she worked at Avante. It's so great that now she's the master of all of her art!
ReplyDelete"I'll need flawless skin for my fabulous summer vacation to Colorado." It's so dry there so deep hydration is always good. I've also had a skin cancer on my face, so I know how important it is to take care of your skin!
Best,

ReplyDeleteFor my summer vacation, I will be whisked away to the fabulous beaches of dirty diapers. While there, I plan to relax while listening to the soothing tunes of "Wailing Baby" and the hot percussion beats of the new drum troop "Loads of Laundry". Afterwards, I will take the 2AM, 4AM and 6AM shuttles to penthouse suite at the "Must Eat Now" Regency. Hey, it's not a glamorous vacation, but it is THE MOST AWESOME one going and the only one I want to take this year! Who doesn't need flawless skin if not the new mother of another fashion-diva in the making, I ask you?
I need flawless skin for my reunion with my hubby after him being away for 2 months at OCS school. And, of course, for our mini-vacay to the beach! Not to mention, I've recently undergone Accutane treatment and my face needs serious attention!

I need flawless skin for my fabulous girls weekend in Seattle in August! It will be the first time all of us college roomies have been able to get away together in 6 years. We just found out that my amazing college roomie Kris is bravely fighting Pancreatic cancer, so this trip is so special for us. We all plan to show up with fresh pedicures w/ purple polish to show our support in the fight against pancreatic cancer and showing up with glowing, fabulous skin will be the perfect treat to start our celebration of the precious time we have together!
