We are perpetually racing against the clock with increasing obstacles to attaining healthier and more youthful looking skin. The thinnin g ozone layer, stronger and more damaging sunrays, increased air pollution, fast paced lifestyles that equal more stress, diets filled with processed foods…things that negatively impact our skin and accelerate the aging process goes on. And, with the end of summer comes the need to repair and protect your skin the natural way, and get it ready for the colder months ahead.

What if you could easily repair your skin while relaxing at the same time?
Covet Spa offers over 17 fully personalized facial therapies. To repair your skin, consider a Propolis Facial or Noni Facial. To turn back the hands of time consider an Anti-aging Facial, Alpha Lipoic Facial, or Youthful Renewal Facial. Facials include Epicuren’s® patented three-step liquid gold serum application.

With all of our facial therapies, we tailor them specifically for your skin condition by adding serums and other medical grade specialty products that will have an immediate impact on your skin. We use ingredients like Propolis, from the Brazilian Rain Forest that helps to build the immunity in the skin, or Noni, used in Hawaiian healing traditions, to quickly calm and repair your skin. Other products such as Bio Peptide Complex Serum and the Hydrolyzed Placenta Serum, referred to as “Botox in a bottle”, offers a dramatic reduction of fine lines around your eyes and a softening of the deeper smile and frown lines, when used as directed.

Don’t forget the rest of your body!
As with your facial skin, the skin on your body also needs proper exfoliation and hydration. If you don’t have time to moisturize daily and exfoliate weekly, you should consider a thorough professional exfoliation and intense hydration treatment at least quarterly, with the change of each season. With each change of season brings dryer skin and additional skin breakouts and potential skin rashes, if you are prone to that. Combat them by treating your body as well as you would your face. Body exfoliators or envelopments are crucial in sloughing off the dead cells and pumping moisture into your skin. Let Covet Spa take care of it for you so you can be sure that those impossible to reach areas are addressed.

Skin Care:
Medical Grade versus Cosmetic Grade Epicuren® is one of the only medical grade product lines on the market today. Most skin care products are cosmetic grade, meaning they are only 25-35% pure product and 65-75% added fillers. Many of what you find in department stores, drug stores, and some “day spas” are cosmetic grade. Cosmetic grade products are available so the masses can use them without having a negative reaction to the potency of the product. Medical grade is 90-95% pure product, so only licensed estheticians can prescribe it to their clients, and they WILL see a difference in their skin.

Epicuren® Discovery-Exclusive to Covet Spa
Epicuren was originally created scientifically to accelerate healing and reduce scarring on burn patients. Scientist and founder, Robert B. Heiman, isolated a protein enzyme found in the inside lining of your mouth, which always stays plump, heals rapidly and never ages. Heiman was able to recreate this protein enzyme and trick the skin into believing it is a human cell-to-human cell contact, and the skin readily accepts it through all layers of the epidermis. The protein enzyme rests on the surface of the dermis and creates a domino effect of cell regeneration in the skin, and heals the skin from the inside out. (Nothing can ever penetrate into the dermis of the skin.) Epicuren activates skin cells to self-rejuvenate by stimulating the skin’s normal chemical reactions.

Testimonials:
“I’ve been going to Covet Spa for facials for about 5 months. My main purpose for getting facials is for sun and age spots that have appeared on my skin. My facials have included a series of peels and serums that have made a tremendous difference in my skin. There are two spots in particular that have bothered me for years, and they have really lightened in color. Plus, the facial is very thorough and my skin looks and feels great.”

“I just received a body envelopment, and I have to tell you, my skin feels great. It has never felt so soft and smooth. I think I’m addicted.”
