You know how fairies and celebrities have that other-worldly glow about them?  As if Tinkerbell herself has showered them from the heavens with a star cluster of her magical pixie dust?  Well, that’s exactly what mineral make-up is like, fairy dust!  It may not make you fly, but your skin will have an ethereal luminescence like the goddess moon herself!  The J-Lo glow is largely due to the tiny bits of gleaming minerals that glisten under the starlight and gleam in the sunlight. The secret is in the micronized, light reflective minerals that shine with a radiance all their own.

Mineral make-up is nothing new, but it’s quality has become better and better over the years.  What has consistently attracted people to mineral make-up is that the formulas contain no harsh chemicals, no dyes, no talc, no alcohol, no mineral oil and no fragrance.  This pure mineral formula is rich with zinc, titanium, peptides, antioxidants and sun protection.  The benefits of this type of formula is that it doesn’t clog pores, cause breakouts or allergic reactions nor exacerbate existing skin concerns.  As a plus, many brands are totally earth conscious!  They’re vegan, paraben-free and cruelty free (no animal testing).

You might think you would have to sacrifice something, like style, for all these amazing benefits, but thankfully that’s not the case.  Mineral make-up comes in colorful palettes in all the latest shades and colors, so it’s not function over form.  The form is luxurious, healthy and stylish!  All of the make-up tools are represented from slick primers and gorgeous foundations to shimmery eye shadows and shiny happy lip colors.

Jill Valestrino, the lead esthetician at The G Spa here in Santa Barbara loves the Colorescience line she uses with her clients and remarks, “We are so excited to now be carrying the Color Science line. It has proven to not only be a leading mineral makeup but a skin care line as well, gentle enough to use post procedure. Our clients love the convenience of the dual brush/sunscreen as a go-to product, easy to keep in your purse and re-apply throughout the day”.

So make your entrance like the glitterati!  Scintillate and illuminate the vast expanse with your secret potion, the pixie dust from the woodland sprites themselves!

The Fountain of Youth: The Triniti Laser Treatment

What’s the secret to eternal youth? Unfortunately, the answer is not to just drink from a magical spring that keeps us young and immortal forever. However, the next closest option is the FDA-approved Triniti laser treatment, which is one of the hottest treatments available at The G Spa.

The Triniti comes with numerous benefits to attain a more youthful and reinvigorating appearance with minimal downtime. Just one of the positive effects of the Triniti is that it restores the skin’s natural collagen and elastin, while rebuilding its underlying tissue. This essentially results in less wrinkles and smoother skin from the newfound elasticity in the skin, especially in the target areas such as around the mouth, crows feet, and under the eyes. The non-surgical and non-invasive treatment allows you to return to your normal activities immediately after treatment and its precise advanced technology enables a safe, effective and essentially painless treatment.

Furthermore, the Triniti facial renewal is very cost-effective as it combines three treatments in one session. Experience our Skin Rejuvenation color correction, ReFirm Skin Tightening Treatment, and Matrix IR Wrinkle Treatment that will give you a complete skin and facial rejuvenation! Don’t put up with spider veins, sun-damaged skin, saggy brow lines, or wrinkles any longer. You can depend on the Triniti and the professional expertise of Dr. Griffin at the staff at The G Spa to take care of all your skin care needs.
