Top 5 Skin Prep Tips Before Your Summer Vacation
☀️ Summer Glow Starts Before Takeoff
Whether you’re headed to the beach, poolside with your crew, or flying out for a summer wedding — your glow should be packed before your suitcase. Here are my top 5 pre-vacation skin prep tips to help you feel smooth, refreshed, and radiant from head to toe.
💆🏽♀️ 1. Book Your Facial 3–5 Days Before Travel
Treat your skin to a hydration-rich facial or brightening treatment ahead of time. Options like The Glass Skin Experience or The Beauty Nap plump, smooth, and refresh your skin without the post-treatment downtime.
Esthi Tip: Avoid strong exfoliants or peels right before travel. Give your skin time to breathe and bounce.
✨ 2. Wax Early — Not the Day Before
For a smooth vacation glow, plan your waxing at least 48 hours before sun exposure. Whether you're booking a Brazilian, brow sculpt, or underarm wax, early scheduling helps avoid irritation.
💡 Pro tip: Add a vajacial or underarm detox to reduce bumps, calm inflammation, and brighten the area pre-travel.
🍑 3. Don’t Skip the Body Glow
Back breakouts? Textured skin? Discoloration?
Your back, glutes, and intimate areas need love too. Treatments like the Back Facial, Gluteus Facial, or Mons Facial help refine texture, clear congestion, and even skin tone so you feel confident in every look.
💧 4. Hydrate Inside & Out
Bring your mist. Layer that moisturizer. SPF every. single. day.
And drink your water. Flights, sun, and salty air dehydrate your skin fast — start hydrating now and keep it consistent before, during, and after your trip.
💎 5. Don’t Skip the Extras
Want extra glow without extra time? Add-ons like LED Therapy, Nano Infusion, and Hydrojelly Masques supercharge your facial results — and they’re now included in Signature Enhancements on upgraded treatments at BTE Luxe.
