Facials good/bad?

[RAWCA]

Hello all

Are facials good to get? Are there any negtive consequences from having blackheads professionally extracted etc?

I think they are great if you have problem skin - a raw food diet is going to help clear your skin up, but if you need some 'professional help' there is nothing wrong with that!

I guess it depends on what you're after and what your limits are. For example, I don't use any chemical astringents, cleaners, lotions, etc. So I probably wouldn't go to a salon and let them put that sort of stuff on my skin *At least, most stuff I've seen in salons is really chemical and toxic smelling*

You could use some bentonite clay and do your own facial for way cheaper and it'd be healthier too. Remember everything you put in your skin absorbs into your body.
