Professional Spa Treatments at Home

Video Transcript

Stewart: Hi, I'm J.R. Stewart, and I am a life coach-stylist and I have with with me celebrity esthetician, Christopher Watt. Hey, Christopher. Watt: Hey, how are you doing? Stewart: Alright, so, I have home spa secrets that we use on television, with TV, and also with film, and then you have spa secrets that you created for the American Hunting Association, and then also for some of your celebrity clients, correct? Watt: That is correct. Stewart: Ok, so we are going to show you how to make at home products that all the celebrities are using, and some of my TV people and film people, that you too can recreate. Ok, so, first of all let's talk about the difference between going to a spa, and spa treatments at home. Watt: Well J.R. when you go to a spa, you're looking for professional treatment. You're looking for someone to give you a deep cleanse, you're looking for the experience, you're looking for someone to give you the extractions, which is the real cleansing process. Stewart: Extraction, you should not do extractions at home. So if you see a pimple and you have to fight the urge to pop it. Bring the hand back. Watt: Don't do it at home unless you know what you're doing, and your hands are clean, and you wrap your fingers with tissues, and then you and gently squeeze. You can do it that way. Stewart: So can you show us the way like if you were going to do an at home extraction? What would you do? Watt: Want to pass me a tissue and I'll show you how to do this the proper way. Stewart: I'm going to do it with you. Watt: What you want to do is you want to take a tissue, a normal tissue. You want to tear that in half. Then you want to fold those halves in half... Stewart: I kind of failed when it was with like arts and crafts. Mine is not as good as yours. Watt: and you want to do this on clean skin. It's best to do this right after you shower so that the pours are already open, and the skin has softened. You don't want to attack your skin before you have prepared it, nor do you want to do it while the skin is dirty. You want to just take your tissues, you want to wrap them around your fingers. Stewart: Wait, my tissue is super sized, there we go. Watt: Your's are much thicker than mine. Ok? and then you just want to go to the blemish, wherever that might be, and you want to just gently squeeze, sort of rolling back and forth. Ok? That way what you're doing is you're pushing the black head, or the white head, from down underneath and out. Stewart: Ok, so rolling technique. Watt: Yeah, a rolling technique is great, ok? You just have to get your technique down. It's sort of like your rolling in toward your fingers. Ok? And you want to make sure that after you get it cleaned out, that you then put some sort of an astringent on there like a toner, preferably something thats alcohol free, that's going to help to kill any bacteria, and then you want to moisturize that area. If the skin is "acneic," or if it does produce acne, or have acne flair ups, you can still use a moisturizer, you just want to use a moisturizer that's oil free, and one that contains ingredients that are good for fighting bacteria. Like Tea Tree Oil is a really good ingredient, Salicylic Acid is great, even Aloe-vera is a really good ingredient. Stewart: And can you do that for the nose as well? Watt: Sure, you can do it on the nose, you can do it on the forehead, you can do it on the chin, wherever you have breakouts. But one thing, if it's inflamed, that means if it's a red bump, Ok? You want to leave that alone, because what could happen is where you squeeze that, it could basically... Stewart: Cause a nasty scar Watt: Explode or implode. Right. Stewart: Nasty scar. Watt: It could cause a scar, and it can also spread underneath the skin, and then what you have is, you'll have acne in other places that you didn't have it before. Stewart: Ok, we'll be right back.
