Home care advice from a spa:  Incorporate on a regular basis a gentle cleanser and an exfoliation scrub, which easily can be used in the shower to remove dehydrated skin cells. Recommend twice a day application of a specific neck and décolleté moisturizer applying it with gentle upward movements to ensure long-lasting youthful looking skin.  Also let your client know, that good posture and alternating cold/hot showers will help strengthen the connective tissue contributing to a beautiful neck and bust line.  (Related article:  Spa treatments at home)
