Ask an Esthetician: Mobile Spa Owner Lisa Dominguez Shares Advice for Beautiful Skin

There’s nothing like visiting the spa for a relaxing facial treatment, but we all know that sometimes we wish the spa could just come to us! Fulfilling this need and bringing the spa to the comfort of your home was the concept that CEO, Founder and Esthetician, Lisa Dominguez envisioned when she launched her mobile spa company Spa O on the Go. Spa O on the Go services the tri-state area with Repêchage products and treatments, offering on location spa parties for adults and children, facials, waxing, massage therapy, in-office massage events, corporate spa days, yoga and hair and nail services. As a result of the tremendous success that Spa O has achieved, Spa O will soon have a place to call home! Lisa and her team will continue to offer on-site spa services, but will also offer spa services at their brand new location in Secaucus, NJ, opening March 29, 2018. What has helped Lisa achieve success is her incredible passion for skin care, esthetics, and doing what she loves.  Lisa shares her passion with others, working as Telemundo TV’s leading skin care and makeup specialist, and has been featured as a trend setter in in Skin Inc. Magazine. For this reason, we wanted to chat with Lisa and learn more about what has helped her spa business be successful, her daily skin care routine, and what advice she has for those on the quest to achieving beautiful skin. To learn more about Lisa and Spa O on the Go, follow her on Instagram and on Facebook What is your personal daily skin care routine? After I cleanse with T-Zone Balance Cleanser, I will exfoliate with Honey and Almond Scrub. Exfoliating is so important to remove dead skin cell build-up! This is done two times a week.  Next, I mask with the Hydra Medic Sea Mud Perfecting Mask or the Biolight Brightening Miracle Mask.  After mask removal, I apply the Biolight Toner, followed by C-Serum Seaweed Filtrate. Once it’s tacking on the skin, I apply the T-Zone Balance Moisturizer, and Biolight Frost Bright Eye Contour Gel around my eye area. In the evening I cleanse with T-Zone Balance Cleaner and Toner, and apply C-Serum and Biolight Frost Bright Eye Contour Gel again.   Why do you use these products? These products leave me looking young and glowing throughout the whole day! I’ve been using them for over 10 years and they’ve really improved my skin. In fact, I don’t need to wear any makeup! (The Four Layer Facial, Spa O’s most popular treatment) What are the top 3 most popular at-home products and spa treatments amongst your clients? For at-home use my clients love the Honey & Almond Scrub, C-Serum, and Hydra Medic Face Wash.  The most popular spa treatments are our Four Layer Facial, Vita Cura 5 Phase Firming Facial, and Seaweed Body Wrap. What are the most common skin concerns you see amongst clients, and how do you help with these concerns. The most common concerns many of my clients face are concerns with skin aging, uneven skin tone/hyperpigmentation and problem skin.   For anti-aging the Repêchage Vita Cura 5 Phase Firming Facial produces wonderful results and helps to lift and firm the skin’s appearance. For uneven skin tone, the Repêchage Biolight Miracle Facial is a natural way to help reduce the appearance of uneven skin tone and dark spots. The Repêchage Hydra Medic Facial has been a wonderful solution for clients dealing with problem skin.  (Photo Credit: Lisa Dominguez, Spa O on the Go) What have the results been for clients since using these products/treatments?  The results have been amazing. Clients definitely see a difference in their skin, and many do the right thing – purchase the retail products to follow up the facials so they can continue the benefits at home. Many of my clients love the products so much that they recommend them to family and friends. What do you tell your clients is the MOST important step in their skin care routine and why? The MOST important is to use the products I recommend for home use. It is also important complete ALL the skin care steps recommended because that is how the change will begin.  I also always remind clients to drink a lot of water and stick to a healthy diet. For clients who just can’t commit to a full skin care routine, I always recommend they at least _____. Use a moisturizer! What are your top 3 skin care tips for clients? 1) Wash your face with cool water. 2) Wear a hat at the beach. 3) Frequently change your pillow case. (Read more on why this so important here). What health and wellness advice do you offer to clients? Last month we hosted a Steps Challenge.  This was done to encourage clients to walk more and move their bodies.  The winner received a FREE Four Layer Facial and massage!  Also, I always share with my clients how important it is to love ourselves and truly be present.   Spa O on the Go: Xchange at Secaucus Junction 4000 Riverside Station Blvd Secaucus, NJ 07094 (201) 994-9596 www.spaoonthego.com
