Pre-Waxing Tips

As the premier spot to go for Brazilian waxing in La Jolla, Solana Beach and north county San Diego, we have more than a few waxing tricks up our sleeves. When you visit Brazilia, you’re guaranteed to have a positive waxing experience, but if you’re a first-timer or you are sending your beau in for a Brazilian waxing for men treatment, follow these tips for an ouch-less experience:

1.       If you forgot to put sunscreen on before your last sunbathing session, wait to wax. A wax with a sunburn is about as fun as it sounds. Better yet, visit us for body bronzing so you can rock a tan minus the burn.

2.       Avoid caffeine the day of your wax. It can make you jittery and heighten your sensitivity.

3.       Take an aspirin before your wax to help manage any pain you might experience.

4.       Relax! Seriously, just take a deep breath and it will be over before you know it.

Preparing for the Grand Reopening of the Del Mar Highlands Town Center!

When it comes to San Diego coastal spas, it doesn’t get better than Brazilia Skincare. We have locations in La Jolla and Del Mar and are so excited about the grand reopening of the Del Mar Highlands Town Center. The premier community shopping center is located in Carmel Valley, just 20 miles north of downtown San Diego, and is hosting its grand reopening celebration Friday and Saturday, September 9^th and 10^th.

The $20 million renovation began in 2010 and includes seven new restaurants, a luxury movie theatre and more. Brazilia Skincare has remained open during the renovations, but we are thrilled to benefit from the center’s improved parking and traffic flows.

The grand reopening celebration will feature live music and more, and Brazilia Skincare is participating with beauty treatments for those in attendance! So mark your calendar and we’ll see you there!

Get Tan the Healthy Way

{Don't let this be you!}

In San Diego, it’s fashionable to be tan year-round, but everyone knows that tanning beds are not the healthy way to get glowing. Stop by our La Jolla or Del Mar locations for a body bronzing treatment and read our SPF rules below!

1.       You’re already going to be putting on makeup, lotion and other products, so why not choose products with SPF built-in? It’s a no-brainer!

2.       If you’re going to be spending the day at the beach, you’ll have to ramp up your sunscreen! Pick SPF 30 with UVA and UVB protection.

3.       Reapply and then reapply again! How often should you reapply? Every two hours. Even if the label says the coverage lasts all day, you still need to reapply!
