How LUXE Aesthetics Reduces Your Exposure to Toxic Chemicals and Microplastics

At LUXE Aesthetics, we’re committed to providing not only luxurious but also safe and eco-friendly treatments. We understand that the beauty industry can sometimes expose clients to harmful chemicals and plastics. That's why we've made it our mission to minimize toxic exposure in every way possible, from the skincare products we use to the materials in our spa environment.


Why You Should Care About Microplastic Exposure


Microplastics are tiny plastic particles less than 5 millimeters in size that can be found in everything from skincare products to the environment around us. They can easily enter the human body through the skin, water, food, and even the air we breathe. Studies have shown that microplastics can accumulate in our bodies and cause a variety of health issues, including inflammation, hormone disruption, and potential long-term effects on the immune and reproductive systems.

At LUXE Aesthetics, we recognize the growing concern over microplastic exposure and make it a priority to minimize it in our spa. By using eco-friendly products, materials, and practices, we aim to reduce the presence of microplastics in our environment and offer a healthier, safer experience for our clients.


Here is How We Are Actively Reducing Your Exposure to Toxic Chemicals and Microplastics


Organic Cotton Sheets, Towels, and Blankets: We use organic cotton sheets, towels, and blankets in all of our treatments. Organic cotton is grown without harmful pesticides and chemicals, ensuring that your skin stays free from exposure to synthetic toxins. It's a natural choice that also supports sustainability, as organic farming methods are gentler on the planet.


Toxic-Free Skincare Products: Our skincare products are carefully selected to avoid harmful chemicals such as parabens, sulfates, and artificial fragrances. We focus on using only high-quality, non-toxic skincare options that nourish and protect your skin. By choosing products that are free from harsh chemicals, we help ensure that your skin remains healthy and balanced during every treatment.


Bamboo-Derived Toilet Paper and Tissues: Even in the most unexpected places, we're making conscious choices to reduce toxic exposure. Our bamboo-derived toilet paper and tissues are free of toxic chemicals, making them a cleaner and more sustainable option compared to traditional paper products. They are gentle on both your skin and the environment, providing a soft yet eco-friendly experience.


Reverse Osmosis Water in Treatments: Water is an essential part of our treatments, and we use only the purest form available—reverse osmosis water. This filtration method removes impurities and toxins, ensuring that your skin receives only the cleanest hydration during your session. It's an extra step we take to ensure that you are not exposed to harmful chemicals or contaminants.


Stainless Steel, Precious Stone, and Wood Utensils: We prioritize the use of sustainable and safe materials in all aspects of your treatment. For this reason, we use stainless steel, precious stone, and wood utensils instead of plastic. These materials not only reduce your exposure to potentially harmful chemicals but also contribute to a more eco-friendly experience. Whether it’s a facial tool or an applicator, we believe in using only the highest quality and safest materials for your treatments.


Live Plants and Air Purification: To ensure that the air you breathe is as pure as the treatments we provide, we have live plants throughout our spa. These plants help naturally purify the air and promote a calm, peaceful atmosphere. Additionally, we use a Sans air filter to further purify the air, removing toxins, dust, and other pollutants to create a clean and fresh environment for your treatment. Together, our plants and air filtration system contribute to a healthier, more serene space for you to relax in.


Non-Toxic Cleaning Products: We are committed to maintaining a clean and safe environment by using non-toxic but highly effective cleaning products, such as 7th Generation Wipes and EPA Registered Force of Nature Cleaner, whenever necessary. These products ensure that your surroundings are spotless and free of harmful chemicals. The only time we use toxic cleaning supplies is after permanent makeup procedures, as required by the Texas Health Department, ensuring compliance while still prioritizing health and safety.


Toxic-Free Linen Care:

We also take great care in washing our linens to ensure they are free from harmful chemicals. Our linens are washed in toxic-free detergents and ozonated water, which helps to kill bacteria and viruses while keeping them fresh and clean for each client. This extra step ensures that your treatments are not only relaxing but also hygienic and safe.


Organic Non-Toxic Essential Oils for Relaxing Scents: Instead of using products with phthalates, we enhance the ambiance of our spa with organic non-toxic essential oils that add soothing and relaxing scents to the environment. These essential oils not only provide a calming atmosphere but also ensure that you’re exposed to nothing but the purest, healthiest fragrances during your visit.



At LUXE Aesthetics, we believe that luxury should be about more than just relaxation – it should also be about health and well-being. By incorporating non-toxic, eco-friendly products and materials into every part of your experience, we’re committed to reducing your exposure to harmful chemicals and microplastics while providing you with the highest-quality service.
