Arabica Coffee: Wake up to whole body benefits

Coffee may be a mainstay of our morning (and afternoon) routine, but it has to more to offer than just a dose of much-needed caffeine. Coffee has benefits for the whole body, starting with the largest, most exposed organ–your skin.

Wake up tired skin with Arabica coffee.

Firecracker Beauty Spa uses only the best products including Arabica Coffee in our scrubs and spa treatments. Arabica coffee is famed for it’s smooth, sweet taste with flavor and fragrance notes of chocolate and berries–perfect for a rejuvenating and scrumptious body treatment. In addition to its incredible olfactory and taste properties, Arabica coffee has benefits you can see and feel on your skin.

Reduces Inflammation and The Appearance of Cellulite

Polyphenols such as hydrocinnamic and chlorogenic acids, reduce oxidative stress from free radicals, which helps protect the body from inflammation. The massage process also stimulates blood flow, which further reduces inflammation, and improves lymphatic circulation. All these benefits, combined with the caffeine in coffee that tightens skin, making it appear more tone and smooth for several hours post-treatment, our coffee scrubs help reduce the appearance of cellulite.

A Naturally Gentle Exfoliant that Increases Circulation

By removing dead skin cells and increasing surface oxygenation, our coffee scrub spa treatments improve skin’s glow and helps it fully absorb moisturizers for a soft, hydrated feel. The massage process of exfoliation improves circulation throughout the body, leaving your skin glowing well beyond your day at the spa!

Antioxidants Prevent Premature Aging

Arabica coffee is rich in antioxidants, which prevent premature aging, reduces oxidative stress from free radicals, and helps repair damage from UV exposure, stretch marks, surface scarring, and fine lines and wrinkles. The exfoliation also improves skin tone and hydration–waking your complexion with a dewy, youthful glow

Clears Acne

The antioxidants, polyphenols, and antimicrobial properties in coffee, combined with the mechanical process of exfoliation unclogs pores, sloughs dead skin cells and bacteria away, and reduces redness and irritation. This is especially beneficial for body acne.

Seaweed Savior: Repêchage Skin Care

Along with Dermalogica, Firecracker Beauty Spa carries and uses Repêchage skin care products because of their premium quality and incredible results! Known for their ingredient innovation, Repêchage is the “original seaweed authority” utilizing their exclusive filtrate they add seaweed phyto-nutrients in its most potent form to their products.

Based on extensive research, seaweed increases hydration (crucial for high-desert dwellers) and improves the complexion. In nature, seaweed feeds itself through osmosis, absorbing vitamins and minerals from the seawater. Through their exclusive filtrate process, Repêchage scientists are able to extract these nutrients and create a fluid that can be delivered and eagerly absorbed by your skin.

By an exclusive proprietary method, Repêchage chemists expel the intercellular fluid from the fibrous seaweed tissue while retaining the activity of the vitamins, minerals, trace elements, and amino acids.

In addition to being incredible for the skin, seaweed is a renewable resource and Repêchage takes pride in their commitment to sustainability. Repêchage has worked with scientists and aquaculturists to sustainably harvest nutrient-rich seaweed off the pristine coast of Down East Maine. In addition to wild harvesting, Repêchage seaweed is grown through aquaculture–ropes suspended in seawater and harvested by boat along floating lines. The harvested seaweed is stored in wet chambers, then dried in a way that minimizes the degradation and loss of bio reactive compounds–compounds crucial to the potency of the skin care products.

Packed with vitamins, minerals, and naturally derived photo-nutrients, Repêchage products are professional-grade and dermatologists approved with results backed by science. Whether you’re in the market for a new skin care regimen or need to target a specific concern, Leticia can advise you on the best Repêchage skin care product for you!
