Facial
What is a facial?
Facials are one of the most popular and widespread types of treatments. A facial usually involves cleansing the skin before applying a nourishing face mask, followed by moisturising, although the treatment varies and can often include exfoliation and use of tech. But the overall result stays consistent, with the treatments aiming to brighten the complexion, draw out toxins, tighten and make your skin more radiant.
A treatment usually takes 30 minutes – 2 hours.
