Update: Cucumber slices in a facial led to a slippery situation.

During a treatment today, a client insisted on using fresh cucumber slices instead of eye gel. They kept sliding off her face and left juice all over my table. I had to stop and clean up, then finish the facial properly. It was a hilarious mess that made me think about how I prep clients.

Heard from a stylist that dried cucumber slices work better (less juice, more stick).

Okay, the dried cucumber slice tip is a game-changer for someone like me (who usually creates a slippery mess). I can never get regular slices to stay put without them sliding right off. My bathroom counter looks like a salad bar after I try this stuff.

Salad bar bathroom is too real. I tried regular slices once and spent more time wiping the floor than on my skin.
