The best accessory for your summer wardrobe? Soft, smooth skin from head-to-toe. Here, three easy ways to flaunt your beach bod!

Brush up
Dry brushing is one of the easiest things to incorporate into your beauty routine. A long brush like our Ritual Brush allows you to sweep away dead skin cells in those hard-to-reach spots. To do it yourself, start at the feet and brush upwards towards your heart using firm, small strokes or move in a circular motion. Dry brushing should always be gentle and never break the skin. Spend three to five minutes exfoliating your body before hopping in the shower.
Have a foam party in the shower
You spent a couple of minutes brushing your bod now it's time to give your skin a deep cleanse with our Miracle Bar. This two-in-one bar soap contains charcoal, shea butter, and olive oil all of which help to smooth, hydrate and nourish. Suds your face and body up by working the soap into a lather with tepid water to detox skin, clear blemishes and reduce the size of your pores. It's non-drying, super moisturizing and soothes irritated skin for even the most sensitive.

Get your bronze on
The final step into scoring a beach body is perfecting your sun-kissed complexion with an all-natural sunless tan application. Both of our NYC + LA salons offer a sunless spray tan service which is customizable to go as light or dark as you'd like. Our solution is organic, vegan, cruelty-free, paraben-free and made with all-natural ingredients to craft a beautiful bronze with no sun damage required!

Can You Combine XERF with Botox, Filler, or Lasers?
Yes, XERF may be incorporated into a treatment plan with Botox or other neuromodulators, dermal fillers, biostimulatory injectables, lasers and selected ultrasound procedures. XERF uses noninvasive radiofrequency energy to heat tissue and support skin tightening, while neuromodulators address expression lines, fillers restore volume, and lasers may target pigmentation or texture. However, these treatments are not automatically safe to perform together or on the same day. Radiofrequency heating may affect certain existing fillers, and sequencing depends on the product, treatment area, settings and medical history. At Joanna Vargas in New York City, medically guided consultations help determine whether XERF belongs in a personalized approach to skin rejuvenation.

XERF vs. Thermage vs. Ultherapy: How They Compare
XERF and Thermage use monopolar radiofrequency energy to heat tissue and support collagen remodeling, while Ultherapy uses microfocused ultrasound with visualization to target selected tissue depths. XERF uses dual-frequency RF technology (6.78 MHz and 2 MHz), while Thermage FLX uses a single RF frequency of approximately 6.78 MHz. Ultherapy can target specific depths, including 1.5, 3.0 and 4.5 mm, depending on the treatment area and protocol. All three are non-surgical options for selected skin-laxity concerns, but they differ in energy delivery, comfort, clinical evidence and treatment planning. No device is universally best; the right choice depends on your anatomy, skin laxity, goals and medical evaluation.

Why the DEJ Holds the Secret to Younger Skin
The dermal-epidermal junction (DEJ) is the structural foundation where the epidermis meets the dermis, and its deterioration drives visible aging. Clinical biopsy data from a 63-year-old male patient treated with E-50 Skin Booster after microneedling showed a 17% increase in rete ridge density, 52% increase in epidermal thickness, and 61% increase in basal keratinocyte density, demonstrating that targeted exosome delivery can restore the DEJ architecture that gives skin its density and firmness.
