It’s not too late to take care of some beauty spring cleaning! Along with de-cluttering those closets and deep cleaning your home, your beauty regimen could also use a little love. There’s no time like the present to get your beauty routing cleaned up as we head into a summer of fun!
Here are our must-do’s when it comes to spring beauty cleaning…
DEEP CLEAN YOUR SCALP
Let’s be real, everyone’s scalp could us a clean-up. Whether you have an oily scalp, dry scalp, experience product build-up, or just want a refresh - adding a scalp deep clean into the mix can do wonders for your hair and scalp! We recommend using the Solu Sea Salt Cleanser to remove any imperfections and get that super clean feeling. It’s a scrub shampoo with sea salt that has a gritty texture to it. This product refreshes the scalp and removes impurities, product residues, and imperfections large and small. It gives texture to the hair and keeps it clean and light. This deep cleanse can be done here at the salon, or at home.
To Use: Apply a quarter size finger full of product to your damp hair. Gently massage the scrub paste into the scalp. As you massage you should begin to feel a foam like texture – add more water as needed. Rinse thoroughly and then apply your conditioner! This product can be used every 3 shampoo’s (do not use every time you shampoo).
CLEAN YOUR MAKEUP BRUSHES
This one is always on our to – do list. Yet somehow, we never get to it. So now is our chance! It’s time to clean those makeup brushes. We’ve all heard it time and time again but the message still rings true. Washing your makeup brushes is IMPORTANT.
And here’s why…
· Dirty brushes can cause breakouts because they are a breading ground for bacteria and a storage unit for dirt and oils
· Brush will preform better when clean
· Washing your brushes softens the bristles helping them to be less agitating for the skin
· Brushes will last longer if cleaned regularly
It’s a pain, we totally get it, but it is worth it. Give your brushes a clean now, and tryyyyy to keep up the routine once a month at least. We can do it ladies!!!
HOW TO WASH YOUR BRUSHES…
Step One - Grab any / all of your makeup brushes and beauty blenders
Step Two - Grab your soap. We LOVE using DEDE SHAMPOO to clean our brushes because it is a delicate daily shampoo. If you don’t have DEDE Shampoo that’s okay! Try using any gentle shampoo (like a baby shampoo) that isn’t moisturizing. Using moisturizing products can change the quality of your brushes bristles.
Step Three - Wet the brush and put a nickel size of soap on your finger tips. Then gently move the brush in circles working the soap and water into the bristles.
Step Four - Continue this cleaning process until the water runs clear from the brush and all the makeup is removed.
Step Five - Lay the brush down neatly on a towel with the bristles flattened into a natural position. Let the brush completely dry out before using / placing in a standing position.
GET A HAIR TREATMENT
Hair treatments are game changing. And while your hair might not look like it needs a treatment – there is always a benefit to adding one in every now and then. After a long winter (thank goodness that is over) and lots of stress (cough cough covid) hair can get dull, dry, and in need of love. And that’s where treatments come in!

CLEAN OUT YOUR BEAUTY PRODUCTS
When is the last time you went through your beauty products? We’re talking makeup, skincare, haircare, and body care. Can’t remember? Us either! And that is no good!
Beauty products can expire just like the food in your fridge, but most of us keep them far past their “good through” date. Now is the perfect time to go through your collection. Our rule of thumb, for opened products, if you can’t remember when you purchased that item, or you can, and it’s been more than a year – its got to go! For un-opened products, anything over two years old must go.
We know what your thinking, “But I only used it once and I might want to try it again soon”. And while we hear you (and totally feel you) it’s just not good. During that amount of time a few things can happen. First, these products can loose their ability to work correctly. Hairspray just isn’t made to sit on your shelf for 2 years. Second, bacteria can begin to grow in these products making them unhealthy for you to use.
DEEP CLEAN AND TREAT YOUR SKIN
Our skin takes a lot. No matter the season it’s put through the wringer. So before all of that summer sunshine gives it even more stress - give your skin some love.
Start with a deep clean. Sure we wash our face regularly but there are some things that your everyday washing just doesn’t get. For that, we recommend the Essential Peeling. This product is a delicate peeling-mask with Bromelain that eliminates impurities, dead skin cells, and excess sebum (oil). It reawakens luminosity, and leaves the skin soft and smooth. This product can be used once to twice weekly.
Next, give your skin the ultimate dose of healing / love with the Remedy Cream! This light, soothing, and hydrating cream for delicate and sensitive skins is literally magic in a bottle. It reinforces the skin’s defense, providing a sensation of comfort and protection. Using this cream daily can do WONDERS for your skin!
