Frequent Flyer Facial

April 01, 2019 by Marina Goldi

We absolutely love how often we’re on the go, I mean it is our job! Our skin, however, is on a completely different page. Every time we book a flight we feel our pores crying for help. We couldn’t be luckier that one of the best face fixers is just a few blocks from us. Dr. Boyd has a team of miracle workers that somehow can erase any dirty details that should’ve stayed on your vacation. The doc recommends a facial before and after a trip for the ideal results, but if you’re not able to do that, definitely make sure you book one for one afterwards. See below for some of the benefits of these ‘frequent flyer’ facials that we’ll definitely be frequenting.

An express hydrafacial consists of 4 steps:

Cleansing and exfoliating
Light peel
Extraction
Antioxidant fusion and skin protection

An oxygen facial uses the power of oxygen to deliver products more effectively with a serum of your choice. One that: rejuvenates, brightens, or clarifies.

You will work with your esthetician to determine which facial is best for your skin at that particular time, or if a combination of the two will make you shine bright like a diamond!

The most important part of facial care is the home care process. Don’t worry, we have great news to make this part easy. Dr. Boyd is the only location in Michigan that has a SkinCeuticals custom dose machine. After your custom facial, head back into the lobby to work with the team and curate your serum based on your skin’s needs. Trust us- this is the type of pop quiz you want to take! Watch the bright wheel spin and get ready to take away your liquid gold!

Dr. Boyd’s team always makes us feel so at home, and we can’t wait for everyone else to experience it, too! Make sure to mention 48HRS for $25 off of your facial and custom dose serum!

5 Warm Getaways to Escape the Cold

January 23, 2019 by Marina Goldi

If you live in a city like Detroit where the winters are long, dark, and cold, you're probably like us and itching to escape the cold for a warm getaway. Before you say "bon voyage" to the snow, here are 5 warm cities we are eyeing for this year.

NOLA
Much more than just the infamous Bourbon Street lies within this historic city. From the music scene to the architecture within the French Quarter; we can get behind why it’s on the top 10 most-visited cities in the U.S.
Mexico City
CDMX has been buzzing lately in the travel scene- and we can see why. Take a stroll through the busy downtown area to discover the capital’s storied history. This vibrant city has recently been adding intriguing museums and notable dining options as of late. Add on a boating excursion along an ancient canals and you’ve got yourself a vacation of a lifetime.
Bahamas
A string of more than 700 islands comprise this beachy getaway. Take in the immaculate views of the rose colored pink sand beach that lines the wave-washed inlets, or delve deep into the underwater cave systems along the southern coast of Grand Bahama’s Lucayan National Park. There’s plenty to do for the whole family or a self-indulgent getaway for one.
Tahiti
Surrounded by waterfalls, Tahiti is filled with much more than just ocean life. While the white sand beach is worth a day’s time, don’t miss out on the various museums and markets this destination holds.
St. Bart’s
A small, volcanic island located in the northwest Caribbean Sea; Saint Barthelemy, or more often referred to as St Barths, is fully encircled by shallow reefs. The island was greatly influenced by French culture and offers 14 different beaches. The daytime relaxation mixed with an exciting nightlife and urban core make for a perfect travel itinerary.
