Prepare Your Skin Today: Facial Before the Holidays

The holidays are just around the corner — and that means parties, photos, and plenty of reasons to look and feel your best. But with the stress of the season, colder weather, and long to-do lists, your skin might not be as radiant as you’d like.

The good news? A professional Customized Facial at Sabai Thai Spa in Vancouver can give your complexion the perfect reset before the festivities begin. Here’s why booking your facial now will help you shine through the holidays — and how to prepare for your treatment.

Why You Need a Facial Before the Holidays

Between colder temperatures, dry indoor air, and added stress, your skin often becomes dull, dehydrated, and unbalanced during the winter months. A facial helps restore what the season takes away.

Here’s what a pre-holiday facial can do for you:

• Deeply cleanse and refresh — Removes buildup from makeup, sunscreen, and pollutants.
• Hydrate and nourish — Replenishes moisture lost from dry winter air.
• Smooth and soften — Gently exfoliates rough patches for a silky, even texture.
• Create a radiant glow — Prepares your skin to look luminous in every holiday photo.
• Relax and rejuvenate — Relieves stress while giving your skin the care it needs. 

A facial in Vancouver before the holidays ensures your complexion is glowing, healthy, and camera-ready — even when the weather isn’t.

When to Schedule Your Pre-Holiday Facial

Timing is key when planning your facial before special events.

• One to two weeks before the holidays is ideal — this gives your skin time to fully absorb the treatment’s benefits and calm any mild sensitivity.
• If you’re getting multiple treatments or trying a new facial, book earlier to allow your skin to adjust.
• For regular facial clients, a refresher 5–7 days before the holidays can boost your glow and keep your skin balanced. 

Booking early also guarantees your preferred time slot — the holiday season at Sabai Thai Spa fills up quickly!

How to Prepare Your Skin Before Your Appointment

To get the best results from your facial, follow these simple pre-treatment tips:

1. Avoid exfoliating or using retinol for at least 48 hours before your facial.
2. Stay hydrated — drink plenty of water in the days leading up to your appointment.
3. Arrive makeup-free so your esthetician can properly assess your skin.
4. Share your skin concerns — mention any sensitivities or products you’re currently using. 

These small steps help your facialist personalize your Customized Facial and ensure your skin receives exactly what it needs.

Aftercare Tips to Maintain Your Glow

Your skin will look radiant right after your facial — and with proper care, you can keep that glow all season long.

• Skip makeup for the rest of the day to let your skin breathe.
• Apply gentle moisturizer and avoid harsh exfoliants for 2–3 days.
• Use SPF daily, even in cloudy Vancouver weather.
• Stay hydrated and get enough sleep to support your skin’s recovery.
• Book a follow-up facial every 4–6 weeks to maintain results beyond the holidays.
