Best Facials Near Me for Different Skin Types: Oily, Dry, Sensitive, and Mature – Boardman OH skincare blog by Royal Glow

Not all skin is the same. What works amazing for your friend might not be right for you when searching for facials near you.

Understanding your skin type is the first step to getting the best facial results near you. As a Licensed Advanced Esthetician at Royal Glow Beauty and Esthetics in Boardman, Ohio, I’ll help you choose the perfect facial for your unique skin when you’re searching for quality treatments in your area.

Let’s explore the best treatments for each skin type.

The best facial for your skin type depends on whether you have oily, dry, sensitive, mature, or combination skin. Oily skin benefits from deep cleansing facials, dry skin needs hydrating treatments, sensitive skin requires gentle customized approaches, and mature skin responds well to anti-aging facials with advanced technology. Professional skin analysis ensures you get the right treatment for your specific needs.

How to Identify Your Skin Type

Before we dive into treatments, let’s figure out your skin type.

The Simple Test

Wash your face with a gentle cleanser. Wait one hour without applying any products. Now look in the mirror:

  • Oily skin: Shiny all over, especially T-zone
  • Dry skin: Feels tight, may look flaky
  • Combination skin: Oily T-zone, normal or dry cheeks
  • Sensitive skin: Red, irritated, or stinging
  • Normal skin: Balanced, comfortable, not oily or dry

What’s the Best Facial for Oily Skin?

The best facial for oily skin in Boardman is the Acne & Deep Cleansing Facial, which includes deep pore cleansing, extractions, and oil-controlling treatments. This facial specifically targets excess oil production, clogged pores, and breakouts that commonly affect oily skin types. Regular treatments every 3-4 weeks help maintain oil control and prevent future breakouts.

For oily skin, you want treatments that:

  • Remove excess oil without over-drying your skin
  • Deep clean pores to prevent clogs and blackheads
  • Control shine throughout the day
  • Reduce breakout frequency through professional extractions
  • Balance oil production rather than stripping it completely

Facials for Oily Skin

Oily skin produces too much sebum (natural oil). This can lead to shine, large pores, and breakouts.

Best Facial Options:

Acne & Deep Cleansing Facial

Perfect for oily, breakout-prone skin:

  • Deep pore cleansing
  • Steam/hot towel treatment to soften buildup
  • Extractions to remove clogs
  • High frequency treatment to kill bacteria
  • Oil-controlling masks

What to expect: Your skin will feel deeply clean and less oily. Pores appear smaller.

Brightening Facial

Great for oily skin with dark spots:

  • Gentle chemical exfoliation
  • Removes excess oil and dead skin
  • Evens out skin tone
  • Controls future breakouts

What Oily Skin Needs:

  • Deep cleansing to remove excess oil
  • Regular exfoliation to prevent clogged pores
  • Oil-free moisturizing to balance hydration
  • Pore-minimizing treatments to refine texture

How Often:

Oily skin benefits from facials every 3-4 weeks. This prevents oil buildup and keeps breakouts under control.

Avoid:

  • Over-drying treatments that strip natural oils
  • Heavy, creamy products that clog pores
  • Skipping moisturizer (this makes oil worse!)

Facials for Dry Skin

Dry skin lacks oil and water. It may feel tight, look flaky, or show fine lines more easily.

Best Facial Options:

Hydrating Facial

Specifically designed for moisture-starved skin:

  • Gentle, creamy cleansers
  • Hydrating masks and serums
  • Rich moisturizers
  • Protective treatments

What to expect: Your skin will feel soft, plump, and comfortable. Fine lines appear less noticeable.

Floral Awakening Facial

Uses natural botanicals to hydrate and firm:

  • Hibiscus and rose extracts
  • Deep hydration treatments
  • Gentle, nourishing ingredients
  • Firming benefits

What Dry Skin Needs:

  • Gentle cleansing that doesn’t strip natural oils
  • Deep hydration with hyaluronic acid and ceramides
  • Rich moisturizers to lock in water
  • Protective treatments to strengthen skin barrier

How Often:

Dry skin responds well to facials every 4-6 weeks. This maintains moisture levels and prevents flaking.

Avoid:

  • Harsh scrubs or strong acids
  • Alcohol-based products
  • Over-cleansing that strips skin
  • Hot water that dehydrates further

Can Sensitive Skin Get Facials?

Yes, sensitive skin can definitely get facials in Boardman, but they require special care and customized treatments. The key is choosing gentle, hypoallergenic products and working with a Licensed Advanced Esthetician who understands sensitive skin needs. Customized facials and patch testing help ensure a safe, comfortable experience without irritation or reactions.

Sensitive skin benefits from professional facials because:

  • Professional assessment identifies specific triggers and sensitivities
  • Gentle, clinical-grade products are safer than trying random drugstore options
  • Customized approach allows treatment modification during the session
  • Proper techniques reduce risk of irritation or inflammation
  • Gradual introduction builds tolerance over time
  • Expert guidance helps avoid ingredients that cause reactions

The key is starting with conservative treatments and building up your skin’s tolerance gradually.

Facials for Sensitive Skin

Sensitive skin reacts easily to products, weather, or stress. It may get red, sting, or break out from new ingredients.

Best Facial Options:

Customized Facial

Perfect for sensitive skin because:

  • Completely tailored to your tolerance
  • Uses gentlest products available
  • Avoids known irritants
  • Can be adjusted during treatment

What to expect: A soothing, calming experience with no irritation or redness.

New Client Facial

Great for testing your skin’s reaction:

  • Conservative approach for first-timers
  • Patch testing of products
  • Gentle introduction to professional treatments
  • Lower risk of reactions

What Sensitive Skin Needs:

  • Fragrance-free products to avoid reactions
  • Gentle ingredients like oatmeal and chamomile
  • Minimal product layers to reduce irritation risk
  • Careful temperature control - nothing too hot or cold

How Often:

Sensitive skin should start with facials every 6-8 weeks. Once your skin adjusts, you can increase frequency if desired.

Avoid:

  • Strong acids or harsh chemicals
  • Excessive scrubbing or manipulation
  • Very hot steam/towel treatments
  • New products without patch testing

Facials for Mature Skin

Mature skin shows signs of aging like fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, and loss of firmness.

Best Facial Options:

Our most advanced anti-aging treatment:

  • Nanotechnology pushes nutrients deep into skin
  • Stimulates collagen production
  • Improves fine lines and wrinkles
  • Adds firmness and elasticity

  • Your skincare goals

What’s the Best Facial for Acne-Prone Skin?

The best facial for acne-prone skin is our Acne & Deep Cleansing Facial, which includes professional extractions, high frequency treatment, and oil-controlling products. This treatment specifically targets clogged pores, excess oil, and bacteria that cause breakouts while using gentle techniques that won’t irritate sensitive acne-prone skin.

Regular treatments every 3-4 weeks help maintain clear skin and prevent future breakouts through professional deep pore cleansing you can’t achieve at home.

Do Dry Skin Types Need Special Facial Care?

Yes, dry skin types need special facial care focused on hydration and gentle techniques. Our Hydrating Facial uses moisture-rich products, gentle cleansing methods, and protective treatments to restore your skin’s natural barrier without causing irritation or further dryness.

Dry skin should avoid harsh exfoliation and over-cleansing. Professional treatments can safely add moisture while removing dead skin buildup that prevents your skin from absorbing products effectively.

Professional Assessment

The best way to determine your ideal facial treatment is through professional skin analysis. I can:

  • Accurately identify your skin type
  • Spot concerns you might miss
  • Recommend the perfect treatment plan
