Facial cleansing

A plant-based facial treatment. Restorative rather than clinical, and labelled as such.

A cleansing facial using plant-based preparations, delivered in a treatment room. Like Nanopore, this is restorative rather than clinical, and we would rather say so than imply otherwise.

What a session is like

Around an hour: cleansing, gentle exfoliation, extraction where appropriate, a mask and a finishing preparation. It is quiet, it is unhurried, and a fair number of guests sleep through most of it.

It is often scheduled for a guest's first day, when something undemanding is more useful than something intensive.

Tell the therapist if

You have sensitive or reactive skin, rosacea, active acne, a cold sore, any allergy to plant extracts or essential oils, or you use retinoids or acids at home. Products are adjusted accordingly, and a patch test is available.
