Holiday Specials All December Long!

December 3, 2013 By patkaspian

Bonjour, Mes Amis!

Miss out on our fabulous Black Friday Weekend Specials?  Still want to give the gift of beautiful, healthy skin this season?  Ne vous inquiétez pas!  Here is a list of the specials at A French Touch that will be available (while supplies last!) for the rest of the Holiday Season:

~ Three Very Merry Sothys Gift Boxes!

hydradvance

The Anti-Aging Gift Box includes Sothys’ Noctuelle and Micro-Gel Peeling Exfoliator.  A Sothys classic, Noctuelle is a divinely-scented night cream designed for all skin types. It offers a resurfacing action that rejuvenates the skin and diminishes the signs of aging through the activity of AHAs, while Vitamins C & E  stimulate cell renewal to reveal a smooth skin with a more uniform and radiant complexion.  The Micro-Gel Peeling Exfoliator  is a newer exfoliant by Sothys, which uses gentle exfoliating grains with camellia leaf to remove the dull top layer. It transforms from a particulate gel into a smoothing oil as you massage it in—perfectly luxurious, in typical Sothys fashion!  This product is paraben-free, and contains white tea extract to calm your skin.  This duo works to resurface and revive the skin, and will leave you (or un ami of yours!) looking your best for time with the family this season.

The Hydration Gift Box combines Sothys’ Hydradvance Comfort Cream and Serum incorporate intensive hydration into a long-lasting formula that’s designed to provide “incomparable moisturizing power with immediate and long lasting results”; read more about the hydrating formulas here!

The Secrets Prestige Gift Box includes Sothys’ most highly recommended anti-aging formula  and a complimentary Secrets Global Serum ($138 value).  Both of these products work together to mitigate the drying and stressing effects of peri- and post-menopause on the skin, specifically the inflammation that results from hot flashes, by de-stressing and fighting free radical activity with  super-anti-oxidant prickly pear extract. Feeling is believing. Pamper yourself or a loved one this season; read more about this duo here!

sunforgettable~ Spend over $100 on our selection of Colorescience products, and receive a complimentary lip or eye product of your choice.  Colorescience offers an all-natural selection of mineral makeup, including foundations, primers, lip and eye makeup, that are gentle on the skin, blend flawlessly, and don’t clog or damage your pores.  Check out this post for more reasons why you’ll love Colorescience, and this postto read about the perfect way to stay beautiful and protected with Colorescience’s Sunforgettable Starter Kit!

One winner will be selected for our Day of Beauty Raffle, which includes a Classic Sothys facial, massage, Colorescience Pro Mineral Makeup application, and lunch on our lovely patio overlooking the creek. C’est formidable!

5 Ways to Add a Little Shimmer to Your Holiday

December 1, 2010 By patkaspian

The holidays are times for family, friends, and joy…in theory! We all know how stressful the holidays can get with all the cooking, cleaning, shopping, and traveling. The list never seems to end! It’s important to set some time aside for yourself to do the things you love most. Whether you want to enjoy time with friends and family, give back to others, or spend some much needed time alone, make sure to add a little shimmer during your holidays!

5 Ways to Add a Little Shimmer

1. Give To Local Charities: One that we suggest is the Food Bank Coalition of San Luis Obispo County, which helps organizations all over the County: soup kitchens, after school programs, senior centers, recovery centers, food pantries, residential centers, as well as homeless shelters. For every $1 donated to the SLO Food Bank, they can distribute the equivalent of 7 meals to hungry children, families, and seniors on the Central Coast. So whether you donate your money, food, or time, you’ll add a little shimmer to your life by helping those less fortunate.

2. Make Time for You: By making time for yourself this holiday, you’ll be able to give more back to those around you. So do what you love, or try out some of these ideas: read a good page-turner, relax in a bubble bath, or take a walk every day. Of course, make time for your facial regime as it’s important to stay consistent with your skincare, even when you’re busy.

3. Wear a little shimmer: It’s amazing what a little change in makeup routine can do for your complexion and for your spirit. Shimmer doesn’t have to be overwhelming but the right amount can give your cheek bones a glow, make your beautiful eyes stand out, or draw attention to your lovely lips. If you’re a little timid, stop by the salon and we’d love to give you some tips. Also, make sure to stop by this Thursday, Dec. 2 for our open house Add A Little Shimmer to Your Holiday event from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m!

4. Enjoy A Parisian Getaway: Step into our salon at any time to slip away into your own Parisian Getaway. Our sitting room is always open to guests. In December, we’ll be entering all of our guests into a raffle to win a le Pere Noel (Father Christmas) Facial to enjoy on the day before Christmas Eve.

5. Treat yourself to a peel: Finish off the end of the year by peeling away any rough layers of skin and debri, revealing fresh, shimmering skin for the holidays.

If you want a little more shimmer, we’d love to see you at our upcoming events!
