Are you ready to unlock your most radiant, flawless complexion? At Mariko Onishi in Roseville, CA, we take the BB Glow facial to the next level by prepping your skin with our advanced Ribeskin Carboxytherapy. This powerful combination delivers superior results, leaving you with a naturally luminous glow that lasts for weeks.
What is a BB Glow Facial?
The BB Glow facial is a cosmetic procedure that provides a light, semi-permanent foundation effect. Unlike traditional makeup, BB Glow subtly enhances your skin tone and texture, creating a naturally radiant, "no-makeup" look. The treatment involves using a specialized nano-infusion device to gently apply a tinted serum to the uppermost layer of your skin.
At Mariko Onishi, we use only premium, third-party tested BB Glow serums. These serums are formulated with a blend of skin-loving ingredients, including:
Naturally-Derived Pigments (Iron Oxides): These mineral-based pigments provide a sheer, buildable tint to even out skin tone and create a soft-focus effect.
Hyaluronic Acid: This powerful humectant attracts and retains moisture, leaving your skin feeling hydrated, plump, and supple.
Peptides: These amino acid chains can help support collagen production, contributing to firmer and smoother-looking skin over time.
Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): This versatile ingredient helps to brighten the complexion, minimize the appearance of pores, and improve overall skin texture.
BB Glow & Carboxytherapy: The Perfect Pair? (And When to Separate Them)
At Mariko Onishi, we're always exploring the most innovative and effective ways to help you achieve your most radiant skin. That's why we're excited to offer the transformative combination of our BB Glow facial and Ribeskin Carboxytherapy. While these two treatments work beautifully together for many, we also know that every individual's skin is unique.
The Power Duo: BB Glow and Ribeskin Carboxytherapy
Our BB Glow facial uses advanced nano-infusion technology to apply a sheer, tinted serum to the skin's surface, creating a natural-looking, semi-permanent foundation effect. It's a fantastic way to even out skin tone, minimize minor imperfections, and enjoy that coveted "no-makeup" glow.
But before we even begin the BB Glow process, we often recommend our signature Ribeskin Carboxytherapy treatment. This cutting-edge CO2 therapy revitalizes your skin from within by:
Boosting Circulation: Delivering a surge of oxygen and nutrients to the skin cells.
Stimulating Collagen Production: Improving skin firmness and elasticity.
Enhancing Skin Texture: Refining pores and smoothing the skin's surface.
Preparing the Skin: Creating the optimal canvas for the BB Glow serum to be absorbed, maximizing its effectiveness.
Why Choose Carboxytherapy Before BB Glow?
Maximizes Results: Carboxytherapy creates an optimal environment for the BB serum to penetrate and work its magic.
Enhanced Radiance: The increased circulation and collagen boost from Carboxytherapy amplify the glow you achieve with BB Glow.
Improved Texture: Carboxytherapy refines skin texture, making the BB Glow application even smoother and more flawless.
Longer-Lasting Coverage: By improving skin health, Carboxytherapy can help extend the longevity of your BB Glow results.
Benefits of a BB Glow Facial with Carboxy Prep:
Naturally Flawless Complexion: Achieve a smooth, even skin tone without the need for daily foundation.
Reduced Appearance of Imperfections: Minimize the look of redness, hyperpigmentation, dark circles, and enlarged pores.
Radiant, Glowing Skin: Enjoy a luminous and healthy-looking complexion.
Long-Lasting Results: Experience the benefits of BB Glow for weeks after each treatment.
Time-Saving: Simplify your makeup routine and wake up with beautiful skin every day.
Safe and Non-Invasive: BB Glow, when performed by a trained professional after a carboxy prep, is a gentle and safe treatment suitable for most skin types.
