Spring Time is the perfect Waxing Time!

6a00d8341c81f953ef0111685d41eb970c.jpg

With Spring just around the corner and many of us lovely ladies taking vacations; now is the perfect time to get rid of any unwanted hair!
If you have never been waxed, let me give you a few reasons as to why you should start!

1. It only takes 4-6 weeks to grow the hair out to the appropriate length. And since it’s still cooler out; it’s easy to stay hidden! ;-)
2. Once waxed, you are hair free for up to 3-5 weeks. You can go on vacation for 2 weeks and never spend time shaving and spend more time on the beach! (with spf of course!)
3. The more you wax; the thinner the hair will continue to grow back. No more hard, harsh stubble like from shaving.

So now that you know you want to try it out; Halcyon Mode is offering the following: For TWO full months; March & April; we are giving a FREE eyebrow wax with any purchased facial! AND all other waxing is 35% off!! This includes: eyebrows, lips, chins, arms, underarms, legs, bikinis, brazilians and any male waxing too!!

Call or email now for your appointment and start growing out that hair ladies! ;-)

**Note: hair should be 1/4″ long for maximum results. Please visit our Treatments page and read more on waxing tips!

Ingredient Focus - Calendula

calendula.jpg

Many times in skin care when looking for calming & soothing properties, the first thing that comes to mind is Chamomile. And though Chamomile is absolutely, positively wonderful for calming nerves & soothing redness on the skin there is another herb/flower that has many similar characteristics. Calendula.

Calendula is an annual or perennial herbaceous plant that belongs to the daisy family native to the Mediterranean region. The name, Calendula, stems from the latin word, kalendae, meaning “first day of the month”. This is due to the Calendula being a *pot marigold* and marigolds are in bloom at the start of most months of the year. **It is important to note though; that not all household plants *called* marigolds are part of the Calendula family.

Calendula contains high amounts of flavonoids, plant-based antioxidants that protect the body against cell-damaging free radicals. It has been used in the past primarily for stomach upset, ulcers & menstrual cramps. Though no research has been able to show why; Calendula has many anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, & anti-microbial properties. It has also been shown to speed the healing process of wounds.
It is the dried yellow-orange petals of the plant that are used in tinctures, washes and even ointments. It is not usually taken orally.

The next time you are looking at a product label or need something to soothe that red, warm, irritated skin make sure to look for Calendula. This is an amazing ingredient that is often times overlooked.

Organic Dining in Milwaukee

dirtydozen.jpg

There is something to having a great skin care regime; but there is something to be said when you know how to care for your skin (and overall body) from the inside. Getting that radiant glow and defending against the wicked signs of aging come from WAY more than what you put ON your face. So much comes from what you put IN your body.
The less meat and the more organic fruits and vegetables; especially raw foods are so incredibly beneficial for an all around healthy body.

Living in Milwaukee; which for many years has been and still is a prominently beer, meat & potatoes type of town; it’s hard for vegetarians and even healthy organic meat eaters to find a place to dine at. But we are growing and expanding our horizons and lucky for us some really fabulous people have brought some great restaurants into the area that can truly leave you feeling satisfied without the sluggish, guilty feeling.

My heart belongs to a few key places that I would love to share with you.

~ Beans & Barley on the East Side.
~ Roots Wine Cellar in Brewers Hill.
~ Café Manna in Brookfield.

So do something good for yourself (and your skin) and go grab a bite to eat at one of these exceptional establishments!!

Bon Appétit!
