Beauty Alert: Dr. Q Cosmetics Giveaway!

Via

Madonna’s anti-aging secret is out of the bag, and it’s available right here in Decatur at Dr. Q Cosmetics. My fave aesthetician Heather Schardan has just added it to her treatment offerings, and I was one of her first clients to try it.

What is it you ask? An oxygen facial. Developed in Australia by Intraceuticals, the super facial is known as hydraulic layering—a three-step process to get the best vitamins possible deep into your skin.

Here’s how it works:

1. Using what looks like an airbrush, a therapist uses cooling, pressurized oxygen to deliver a vitamin-rich serum.
2. Next, a hydration gel is applied that prevents moisture loss.
3. Finally, a binding cream is applied that provides a layer of intense hydration.

Unlike other facials and laser treatments like photorejuvination, Heather says clients see instant results. Your skin looks plumper, more refreshed and refined, and tighter. So it’s a great to do before a big event, like a special holiday party or a stroll down the red carpet. Other benefits based on my personal experience: it’s relaxing and pain free, there is no need for numbing aids, and you don’t experience flaky peeling skin that can accompany some chemical peels.

Dr. Q Cosmetics offers an extensive menu of services. I have tried almost all of them, and endorse them wholeheartedly. Heather offers monthly specials and open houses. I just scored a free Skin Bella facial – one of my faves – at her holiday open house. Shoot her an email to get on her distribution list.

Not only is Heather awesome at her job, she is a very giving person. She spends some of here time working with cancer patients for the Look Good Feel Better program. She rocks!

And, because she is so nice, she’s giving away a one-hour oxygen facial – a $150 value – to one of my lucky readers. If you too want to hydrate, lift and tighten your skin follow these simple giveaway guidelines:
