How Does The Velvet Rose Facial Work?
The Velvet Rose Facial is a highly customized facial treatment designed to meet your skin’s unique needs. It cleanses, exfoliates, hydrates, and nourishes your skin while addressing concerns like dryness, aging, and acne.
Key Steps in Our Velvet Rose Facial
Each step is tailored to your skin type, ensuring a personalized experience that enhances both health and appearance.
Key Benefits of Regular
Facials
Regular treatments can have great benefits for your skin. They keep your face hydrated, improve your skin texture, and help fight signs of aging. Facials can also prevent breakouts and give you a fresh, youthful look.
Hydration
Skin treatments assist in restoring moisture to the skin. This is especially important in Fort Collins, where the dry climate can make your skin feel tight and dry. By adding hydration back into your skin, skin care treatments leave your face feeling soft and smooth.
Anti-Aging
As we age, our skin naturally changes, and fine lines may begin to appear. Skin treatments can help reduce these signs of aging by boosting hydration and collagen production. Over time, regular treatments can make your skin look firmer and younger.
Acne Prevention
Regular facials help prevent acne by clearing clogged pores, removing excess oil, and exfoliating dead skin cells. Frequent treatments help balance oil production, reduce bacteria buildup, and calm irritation, leaving your skin clearer and healthier.

How the Dry Climate in
Fort Collins Affects Your Skin
Fort Collins and Colorado have a dry climate with low humidity and high elevation. This can greatly affect the health of your skin. The dry air pulls moisture from your skin, leading to dehydration, flakiness, and even premature aging. This makes proper skincare, including hydrating treatments, an essential part of maintaining healthy skin.
Common Skin Problems in Dry Climates
People in Fort Collins often face skin issues like dryness, dullness, and sensitivity because of the dry climate. Dehydration can cause tightness and irritation, and it can also make your skin look dull.
When your skin lacks moisture, it becomes flaky and itchy. Over time, these conditions can contribute to premature wrinkles and fine lines.
Effects of Climate on Skin Conditions
Climate significantly influences skin health. A study conducted by the American Academy of Dermatology highlights that low humidity levels can lead to increased skin dryness and irritation.Â
In areas with dry climates, such as Fort Collins, residents may experience more skin problems like eczema and psoriasis due to environmental factors.
| Skin Problem | Description |
|---|---|
| Dryness | Lack of moisture causing tightness |
| Dullness | Skin appears lackluster in color |
| Sensitive Skin | Increased irritation and redness |
What to Expect During
Your Facial
Consultation and Skin Analysis
Every treatments’ facial begins with a consultation and skin analysis. This step helps us assess your skin’s condition. We can then choose the best treatment for your concerns. This ensures you get the best results.
Treatment
Process
After analyzing your skin, we begin the facial with a deep cleanse to remove any dead skin cells. Based on your skin’s needs, we will perform extractions to clear clogged pores and apply a hydrating or refreshing mask. Finally, a facial massage helps improve blood circulation, leaving your skin glowing.
Aftercare
Tips
After your facial, it’s important to follow a few simple aftercare steps. Avoid direct sun exposure for the first 24 hours. Keep your skin hydrated with a good moisturizer, and do not use harsh exfoliants or retinol for a few days. These tips will help maintain the results of your facial and keep your skin looking radiant.

I had such a great facial experience- my skin was glowing for days afterwards!! I love the beautiful, stylish private room you are pampered in with relaxing music, skillful techniques and wonderfully smelling products. It was blissful! I had the pleasure of meeting both the owners who were very kind, warm women who are passionate about providing Fort Collins with an incredible, natural experience! I definitely recommend this beautiful business! -
Velvet files has ruined me for other nail salons. I always break out and itch after pedicures because the lotions have a lot of chemicals and the Snell of nail salons normally gives me headaches. Velvet files uses all natural ingredients so my skin is soft and healthy afterwards. The salon has a great atmosphere with awesome staff. So relaxing!

I love love love Velvet Files. VF is the best nail shop in Fort Collins. The shop is the perfect blend of modern + traditional esthetic and has a boutique at the front. My favorite services are the ‘Classy Mani’ and the ‘Velvet Rose Facial.’ The Gel Bottle Inc polish works better for me, and there’s so many options to choose from (Miami, Sahara, Vixen, Jungle are few favs.) The ‘Velvet Rose Facial’ is the best facial I’ve ever had, and I’ve also gotten my lashes done too. Every tech is so good - Chloë, Jenna, Laura. Chloë does my nails, and she is magic. And the owners, Bonnie and Liz, are the best! I feel lucky to have found such a gem.💎
