Our First Skincare Member Spotlight – With Health and Wellness Coach Aurea Lara!

Q) Let’s start off with you telling us about yourself!

A. I’m an actress (film/tv) and a certified health coach. For both of my businesses it is important for me to look my best and age as slowly as possible.

Q) Has skincare always been an important aspect of your life? If yes, how so?

A. Yes, I’ve always been into beauty and skincare. I’m very much a girlie-girl in that sense. I know how important it is to have healthy, beautiful skin so I am very careful as to what I put in my body (food, supplements) and on my body (makeup, skincare).

Q) Have you struggled with your skin in the past?

A. No. I’ve always had beautiful, clear skin. It has always been one of the things I get compliments on either from photographers, makeup artists, or people in general.

Q) What made you choose Skin Bar?

A. If I’m not mistaken, I got a lifebooker voucher for a couple treatments and I just fell in love with my Esthetician,Jess. She was very knowledgeable and personable. She definitely knew what she was doing. I’m very particular about who I allow to touch my face (even my hair) and I felt very comfortable with her skill set and she’s never disappointed me since.

Q) How has Skin Bar helped? Tell us about your membership!

A. I was a Golden member and I just recently upgraded to the Forever Young. I love my membership; the staff definitely know what they are doing and the products are very good in quality. I have seen improvements in my skin is brighter, more even and so I really do appreciate the treatments Skin Bar offers.

Q) How long have you been a member?

A. Since November 2013!

Q) What made you decide to become a member?

A. The Forever Young membership made sense because of the treatment offering. Two treatments a month is a pretty good routine to get into, in my opinion.

Q) How many services on average do you have a month/year?

A. 2-3 per month

Q) What is your favorite service?

A. It was the pigment balancing peel and now it is the Image peel that performs a similar function. I love the way my skin looks and feels.

Q) How do you think these services have changed the way you look/feel?

A. I think the act of pampering oneself serves to boost our confidence levels and makes one feel good. I believe it’s important to take care of ourselves. When I’m getting a treatment it’s ‘me time’.

Q) What have you learned since becoming a member at Skin Bar?

A. I’ve learned more about products and their benefits.

Q) Do you have any tips for maintaining your skincare regime?

A. Plenty of hydration, water! Lots and lots of green veggies and plenty of berries. No refined carbs or processed foods. No fake foods. Limiting sugar (fruits don’t count). Healthy fats, nuts and seeds, avocados and lots of wild-caught fish!

Q) Is there anything else you would like to add?

A. I love Skin Bar and am happy to recommend people!
