Do you actually know what the UV index means?

Here is what those numbers actually mean for your skin:

• 0-2 (Low): Minimal risk for most, but if you have melasma or PIH, even this can trigger pigment.
• 3-5 (Moderate): Still enough UV to worsen dark spots and stimulate melanin. SPF is not optional here.
• 6-7 (High): Most summer days live here. Burns happen in 20-30 minutes. This is where cumulative damage builds.
• 8-10 (Very High): Unprotected skin burns in 15-25 minutes. SPF degrades fast. Reapply every 60-90 min.
• 11+ (Extreme): Burns in under 10 minutes. Avoid midday sun entirely.

The UV index is not just a number. It is your skin's daily risk assessment.

Save this so you know what to look for before you step outside.

That jar? That's what was sitting in your pores before your Hydrofacial even got to the good part💧
And that's exactly why your results don't come from just one step or one product. They come from how each part of the treatment is chosen, adjusted, and layered based on what your skin actually needs, that day, in that moment.
Because your skin isn't the same every month. Stress, seasons, hormones, travel, your current routine, they all change how your skin shows up.

Some things just belong together 💛

Creating a space where people can finally exhale

Every treatment brought in, every product brought in, every protocol built come back to one question:

“would I leave feeling better than I walked in?“

Because healthy skin is important but so is how you feel when you’re here

Auroras Esthetics

Your summer skincare products should feel like they belong in your beach bag, carry-on, pool tote, and everyday routine. ✈️☀️

I’m always thinking about how products fit into real life for my clients. Lightweight hydration for hot weather. SPF that layers well under makeup. Barrier support after sun exposure. Products that travel easily and still support your skin goals while you enjoy your summer.

July is UV Safety Month!☀️

A quick reminder to all my clients and followers: remember to wear sunscreen every day! Regardless of the season, it is crucial to apply sunscreen daily to shield your skin from the sun's harmful UV rays🕶️🧴
