Your Skin is Worth It's Weight in Gold

And you thought gold was only for wearing jewelry. Not anymore. Because gold is readily absorbed by the skin and is the softest of all metals, it accelerates cell growth and reverses skin oxidation. These gold facials are becoming more popular all the time among the rich and famous.

The main ingredients of this particular facial are gold cream and gold gel. These contain 24-carat gold, Aloe Vera, wheat germ oil and sandalwood. Moreover, it benefits both dry and oily skin types. Once again, gold facial has given the researchers an opportunity to explore the medicinal properties of the multifaceted metal Gold.

Both Men and Women

Facials for men are being booked along with facials for women. Especially among the younger and middle age groups. Along with stars like Tom Cruise and Tom Hanks, appointments for men's facials are showing a waiting list. All that stage and movie make-up begins to take it's toll, causing extreme dryness and skin problems. And then theres the weather that film stars are exposed to which causes another whole set of problems.

So, just exactly what is a facial?

A "facial" is a generic term for a variety of procedures for the face. Massage, oils and creams, steam are used to accomplish certain skin needs. Black heads are removed, skin problems addressed and even ex-foliation is available. Facial masks, peels and moisturizers are also offered. And of course, a good, gentle face cleansing is the first step in your facial.

Now, let's take a virtual trip and visit a few different types of facial spas. As you view the photos, sit back and relax, releasing all body and facial tension. Breathe through the nose and out through the mouth to begin the relaxation process.

Diamond Facials

This particular facial was a surprise to me. Using my imagination, I proceeded to visualize how this might work. First the diamonds would be cleaned. Then they would have to be grinded down to a fine power which would be applied to my face. The dermabrasion would begin and ouch! Well...something like that.

Actually, in using crushed diamons this is one ofthe latest breakthroughs in dermatology. The diamond peel treatment is much like a microdermabrasion, but is a less invasive and more comfortable process because there is no chance of stray crystals damaging the skin.

  • Use left over oatmeal to soften dry skin.
  • Before pouring milk on the oatmeal, measure out about 1/2 cp and sponge on to face.
  • Use favorite wine or vadka for astringent. (pour a little for yourself)
  • Sit back, put your feet up, and indulge in a box of chocolates (anti-oxident).

I have heard of gold and diamond facials. A salon nearby offers these kind of treatments for brides. Works wonders on your skin I've heard.

Well then! I have been deprived. Usually I just give myself a facial with items found in the kitchen. I do have a jade roller though that I use. I purchased it in China Town in NYC and it is a great face massager. Supposedly Chinese women have used them for centuries.

It was fun to see how the elite live. Thanks vocalcoach for a mental vacation. I look fabulous Dah-ling!

Gold facial, unbelievable!! The oatmeal is really a good one. The hospitals used to give oatmeal baths, so i've read. I must say that i like your idea the best, esp. the chocolates. I have exfoliated my face, but i'm too busy now that i joined Hubpages. Hee. Thank you for sharing. GREAT article.

always exploring - Well, youre my kind of girl, ruby. Even if I were in a position to afford a gold facial, I would prefer to donate that much money to helping close down "puppy mills". Thanks for dropping by.

Movie Master - So glad that you read this. I found this topic quite educational. I wonder what else the "other half" endulges in that would fascinate me? I'll stick to the oatmeal facial and especially the chocolate. Thank you.

JT Walters - It's always a pleasure to see you my friend.

I am so pleased that you liked my hub and enjoyed the videos. Hope you are doing well. Thank you so much.

Green Lotus - I'm with you on the oatmeal facial. And as for the gold - too many places for that to go instead of on my face:) Thank you, wonderful one!

Sharyn's Slant - I know just what you mean. And finances (or lack thereof) is just one more reason for keeping the "frugal facial." Thanks for taking time to comment Sharyn.

The gold facial really grabbed me. I think it's a bit of a gimmick--for me, the regular facial at the spa works well enough, when I have the money and can afford the time. It's a lovely treat.

vocalcoach profile image

vocalcoach Hub Author 9 months ago

Hyphenbird - Great comments. This was fun to research and put together. Now that I know how the other half lives, I'll just stick to my oatmeal :)

divacratus - So glad to see you here. Thanks for having a look at my hub...I do so appreciate it :)

Lyn - I'm so glad you enjoyed the videos. And it really means a lot to be thanked for all the details. A big thanks!!!

Since I just had my second facial, this was interesting. How much does the gold facial cost??? I was so relaxed that I fell asleep. I also loved the hot towel over my face & neck.

It was all wonderful.

I've never heard of a gold facial before. Interesting hub for sure. Thanks for all of the info-very useful. I'm going to a spa this week as a matter of facct.

Pamela99 Level 7 Commenter 9 months ago

This is very interesting and the videos were helpful also. I can't imagine affording a facial using gold with its high price. I've always done my own facials due to the expense. Rated up, interesting and awesome.

If you haven't voted in the tug of war contest I would very much appreciate your vote if you think my hub is worthy. Thanks either way. I think this hub might be picked this week as it is very good.

So now we are all Melting down our Gold Jewelry...Wow, I never heard of a Gold Facial before Vocalcoach. This Hub was such an Interesting and Informative read...But after all is said and done, and all the different methods for Beauty... I like your method the Best, especially the Chocolates!

vocalcoach profile image

vocalcoach Hub Author 9 months ago

b. Malin - Evidently there are those who think that if gold is used in a facial it must be worth the price. Just for fun I tried booking an appointment for one and the waiting list was 6-12 wks out. Hard to imagine. Of course I had no intention of making an appointment:)

Thanks for dropping by, my friend and...pass the chocolates, please:)

Pamela - Me, too. I do my own and not so sure mine aren't just as good as gold. As for your hub in the tug of war contest, you have my vote which I will take care of immediately. And...congratulations!

Denise - Lucky girl! And you didn't even invite me along:) Oh well - I will be having oatmeal for breakfast, so at least I can do a facial.

The top of my bucket list is a visit to a full spa with the works! Enjoy yours and think of me (without the gold please). Hugs

agaglia - Falling asleep during a relaxing massage is accomplishing the main goal. Good for you. As for the cost of a Gold Facial, it depends on the quality of gold and whether you do it yourself or visit a spa.

The best home facial using gold is the one listed in this hub (the first one) at amazon. Thanks for your comments.

Thank you, Audrey, for bringing this important and essential information to my atention. Cannot believe I've lived this long with no knowledge whatsoever of either diamond or gold facials. Who knew?

Do love your personal suggestions about wine as an astringent - internally that is. Reminds me of my favorite tee shirt: "I love cooking with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food!"

Rated up, m'dear.

So great! Thank you.

Hello, hello - Thank you for reading my hub. Like you, I will not be doing this anytime soon. ")

acaetnna - I enjoyed researching this topic. Certainly learned alot. Something a little different from my usual hubs. Knowing that you took time to visit and comment just made my day :)

Denise Handlon - What a fantastic gift from your daughter, cardelean! My son did the same thing for me last year. What a treat...and you have raised her well :)

blaise25 - Oh, thank you! I second your motion...would love to try this if someone else would treat :)

It's been too long since I've had a facial and I would love to go gold. There are two Korean spas here in NY and NJ - and they have gold hot rooms where you can go and relax. Amazing.

Great hub and rated up!

Hi Vocalcoach. Well written and informative hub. I can hardly image that someone can crash few diamonds to make a mask but I am not surprise that probably someone out there is in the position to afford it!I would probably prefer the oatmeal mask still

vocalcoach Hub Author 9 months ago

laral - This is exactly my reaction to these gold and silver facials. And even if I had money to spend on such a luxury, I would choose to feed the poor instead. Thank you for your visit. Hope to see you soon.
