Firefly Focus: May Edition
Welcome to the May edition of Firefly Focus, your monthly guide to what’s new, nourishing, and noteworthy at Firefly Spa in Mission Hills, San Diego. As the days get sunnier and spring is in full bloom, we’re here to help you protect your glow, elevate your skincare, and celebrate the season with intention. Here’s what’s happening at Firefly this month:
🌞 PCA Product of the Month: Weightless Protection SPF 45
Sun protection is the most important step in any skincare routine, and May is the perfect time to refresh your daily SPF. This month, we’re featuring PCA Skin’s Weightless Protection Broad Spectrum SPF 45.
This lightweight, fast-absorbing sunscreen delivers broad-spectrum UVA and UVB protection without a greasy finish. It wears beautifully under makeup or on bare skin and includes antioxidants to support your skin barrier throughout the day.
I like that the consistency is soft and light. It blends and integrates very organically into the skin without leaving an oily layer. Sun damage can result in wrinkles, age spots, loss of skin elasticity, and even increased risk of skin cancer. For me, the use of sunscreen is essential for health and beauty! – Miriam, Licensed Esthetician at Firefly Spa
🌟 May Special: Enjoy 10% off Weightless Protection SPF 45 all month long with code MAYPRODUCT (available online and in-person).
Enhancement of the Month: Collagen-Infused Treatments
This May, we’re shining a spotlight on one of the most powerful ingredients in skincare: collagen.
Collagen is a naturally occurring protein in the body that provides structure, strength, and elasticity to the skin. As we age, our natural collagen production begins to slow down, often leading to dryness, fine lines, and a loss of firmness. That’s where collagen-infused treatments come in.
The collagen masks are a luxurious add-on that feels great on the skin, leaving the client feeling instantly brighter and more hydrated. – Deb, Licensed Esthetician at Firefly Spa
Our collagen masks are designed to deliver targeted hydration and plumping effects directly to the skin. By deeply nourishing and locking in moisture, these masks help:
- Reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
- Firm and tone areas prone to sagging
- Boost elasticity for a smoother, more youthful look
- Soothe and calm irritated or sensitive skin
- Improve overall skin texture and radiance
You can choose collagen masks for the face, eyes, lips, neck, and décolleté. Each mask is infused with skin-loving ingredients to replenish and revive, making them the perfect add-on to any facial service. Whether you’re prepping for an event or just want to give your skin a boost, collagen enhancements are a simple yet effective way to elevate your glow.
During the entire month of May, everyone can enjoy member pricing on all our collagen enhancements.
Mother’s Day 3-Packs and 5-Packs
Treat yourself or Mom to more than just a single spa day. During the month of May, we’re offering our Mother’s Day 3-pack and 5-pack. The packages include three or five hours of services that can be used toward a Signature or Extended Facials and a 60 or 90-minute Massages.
The packages are available to be added to your account or purchased as a gift card, making it easy to give the gift of self-care all year long.
