Despite its ominous name, the Zombie facial isn’t about the walking dead but rather reviving your skin and bringing it back to life. If you're looking to enhance your skincare offerings or want to indulge in a deeply transformative experience, the Zombie Facial could be just what you need.
Let’s dive into everything you need to know about the Zombie Facial protocol, from what it involves to the benefits you can expect. Uncover the secrets behind this spooky-sounding but sensational treatment.
What is a Zombie Facial?
The Zombie Facial, also known as the Resurrection Facial, is a powerful skin treatment designed to target a wide range of skin concerns. This treatment gets its name from the temporary tight, crackly effect the mask creates on the skin, giving the appearance of a "zombie" face for a short period. But don’t be fooled by the temporary ghoulish look—this facial is packed with rejuvenating benefits.
How Does It Work?
At the heart of the Zombie Facial is a unique combination of enzymes and tightening agents that work to exfoliate, detoxify, and rejuvenate the skin. Here’s how the protocol typically unfolds:
-
PRE-CLEANSE Apply ½ pump Vitamin Veil Cleanser to dry skin. Massage in circular motions and remove makeup if applicable. Feel for areas of textural irregularity and microcongestion prior to removing with sponges or a warm towel.
-
CLEANSE Using 1 pump of Lipid Replacing Cleansing Gel, cleanse the face in circular motions. Remove thoroughly with sponges or a warm towel. Pat skin dry.
-
EXFOLIATE AND STEAM Mix 1 part of Enzyme Powder with 3 parts of matching Enzyme Activator into a portion cup. Apply with a fan brush to the face & neck. Apply a damp 4X4 compress over the entire face followed by either steam or a hot towel for 5-10 minutes. Remove the towel and 4x4 compress from the face. Thoroughly remove with a warm towel or 4X4 gauze. Pat skin dry.
Mask Removal:
- After the mask has fully dried and done its job, it’s gently removed, leaving behind smooth, glowing, and rejuvenated skin. This process also helps clear out toxins and dead skin cells that were trapped in the pores.
- INFUSE Spray 3-5 sprays of Blueberry and White Tea Hydrating Mist and press gently into the skin. Apply 2 pumps of Vitamin C Reversal Serum to the face and neck in an even application. Press gently into the skin.
- MASK Combine 1 tbsp. Firming Peptide Enzyme Powder and 1 tbsp. Firming Peptide Activator into a portion cup. Mix vigorously with a metal whisk and apply with a fan brush. Leave on for 20-30 mins.
Mask Removal:
Combine ¼ tsp. Lipid Replacing Cleansing Gel with ¼ tsp Snow Algae & Spirulina Cooling Mask into a portion cup. Whip with a fan brush and apply the foamy mixture with a fan brush on top of the Firming Peptide Mask to dissolve. Apply a warm towel compress over the top for 1-2 Minutes. Thoroughly remove all product with a warm towel or 4X4 gauze. Pat skin dry.
HYDRATE & PROTECT Spray 3-5 sprays of Blueberry and White Tea Hydrating Mist onto the face and neck and press gently into the skin. Apply ½ pump of Emergency Eye Lift to the eye area, and stipple into the skin. Apply 1 pump of Vitamin C Reversal Serum to the face and neck. Apply a small amount of Post Peel Balm to the face and neck. Apply 1 pump of Light Day Broad Spectrum SPF 37 to the entire face and neck.
Benefits of the Zombie Facial
The Zombie Facial offers a wide range of benefits that make it a highly sought-after treatment:
- Deep Pore Cleansing: The combination of enzyme exfoliation and the tightening mask effectively clears out clogged pores, preventing breakouts and leaving skin feeling fresh.
- Firmer, Tighter Skin: The mask’s toning effect helps lift and firm sagging skin, giving you a more youthful appearance.
- Smooth Texture: With dead skin cells sloughed off and pores cleared, the skin’s texture becomes smoother and softer to the touch.
- Increased Circulation: The tightening action of the mask promotes blood flow to the surface of the skin, enhancing cell turnover and overall skin health.
- Reduction of Fine Lines and Wrinkles: With regular treatments, the Zombie Facial can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, making it a favorite for those seeking anti-aging benefits.
Who is the Zombie Facial For?
The Zombie Facial is ideal for those with dull, tired skin that’s in need of a deep refresh. It’s also great for people dealing with:
- Acne-prone skin or clogged pores
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Sagging or loose skin
- Uneven texture and dullness
Because the treatment is gentle yet effective, it’s suitable for most skin types, including sensitive skin.
What to Expect Post-Treatment
After a Zombie Facial, skin will look radiant, firm, and glowing. Some people experience slight redness immediately after the treatment, but this usually subsides within a few hours. To maintain the benefits of the facial, it’s recommended to follow up with a hydrating skincare routine and protect skin from the sun.
For best results, a series of treatments spaced a few weeks apart may be recommended, depending on skincare goals.
Wrapping It Up
The Zombie Facial may sound eerie, but the results are nothing short of magical. With its unique blend of exfoliating, detoxifying, and firming ingredients, this treatment brings new life to tired, lackluster skin. If you’re looking for a facial that goes beyond the surface to deliver long-lasting rejuvenation, the Zombie Facial protocol is one you won’t want to miss.
