Choosing the Right Facial for You: A Comprehensive Guide
At Shear Excellence, we understand that every individual’s skin is unique. That’s why we offer a range of facial treatments that are customizable to meet your specific needs. Whether you’re dealing with oily, dry, combination, sensitive, or normal skin, our facials are designed to help you achieve a healthy, glowing complexion.
Understanding Your Skin Type
Before diving into the various types of facials, it’s crucial to understand your skin type. Identifying whether your skin is oily, dry, combination, sensitive, or normal will help you and your Service Provider select the most effective treatment.
-
- Oily Skin: Characterized by excess skin oil production, oily skin often leads to enlarged pores and a shiny complexion.
- Dry Skin: Lacking in moisture, dry skin can feel tight, rough, and is prone to flaking.
- Combination Skin: A mix of oily and dry areas, typically with an oily T-zone (forehead, nose, and chin) and dry cheeks.
- Sensitive Skin: Easily irritated by environmental factors or certain products, sensitive skin can become red, itchy, or inflamed.
- Normal Skin: Well-balanced, normal skin is neither too oily nor too dry and is generally less prone to blemishes.

2. Platinum HydraFacial ($206 – $226)
Looking for an elevated experience? Upgrade to the Platinum HydraFacial™, which includes all the benefits of the Deluxe version plus a detoxifying lymphatic drainage process for ultimate rejuvenation.
3. Diamond HydraFacial™ ($230 – $250)
For those wanting a “medical meets luxury” experience, the Diamond HydraFacial™ is the perfect choice. This treatment enhances your skin’s natural radiance by exfoliating dead skin cells and infusing it with a blend of vitamins and antioxidants. It’s ideal for addressing both oily and dry areas, ensuring a more even and radiant complexion.
Classic Facial: Perfect for Sensitive Skin
Sensitive skin requires gentle care, and our Classic Facial is designed to provide just that. Priced between $67 – $87, this facial uses soothing, hypoallergenic products that calm irritation and reduce redness. It’s the perfect way to maintain a healthy, balanced skin tone without causing any discomfort.
Glacial™ Gloss: Refreshing Normal Skin
If you have normal skin and want to maintain its natural glow, the Glacial™ Gloss ($230 – $250) is an exceptional choice. This treatment includes the application of a cooling mask that soothes and revitalizes your skin, leaving it with a healthy, dewy glow. For those on a tighter schedule, the Glacial Glide ($119 – $135) offers similar benefits in a shorter session.
Specialty Treatments for Enhanced Results
In addition to our standard facials, Shear Excellence offers a range of specialty treatments to further enhance your skincare routine.
-
- Dermaplaning ($35): This treatment exfoliates the skin, removing dirt, debris, and vellus hair (peach fuzz), resulting in a smoother, brighter complexion. Dermaplaning can be added to any facial, like our HydraFacial, for a truly luxurious experience—often referred to as the “Cadillac Experience.”
- Seasonal Facial ($111 – $131+): Tailored to the changing needs of your skin throughout the year, our Seasonal Facial addresses specific concerns such as anti-aging, acne, or brightening. This customizable treatment ensures you leave feeling relaxed and rejuvenated, no matter the season.
- Shaved Ice Add-On ($134): For the ultimate indulgence, add the Shaved Ice treatment to your facial. This option combines dermaplaning with the Glacial Glide treatment for an extra boost of exfoliation and hydration.
