Stress + pollution + after hour excesses = a very poor complexion down the road. It’s as simple as that. So unless you have a miracle remedy up your sleeve that allows you to be perfect from dawn to dusk, 24/7, we’d like to suggest a joker card. Something to re-boost your skin and your mood! Treat yourself to an Aesop facial. We entered into the Lyndhurst Terrace shop, the only one that has treatment rooms. From then on, we pressed the pause button. For 60 minutes (or 90 for the lucky ones!) you get to let yourself go and indulge! The therapist will examine your skin and choose the most appropriate products. You can close your eyes and let yourself be lulled by the classical music that is playing in the background. Make way for the pampering! Your skin will be gently cleansed and scrubbed. The products’ soft scents will tickle your nose and entice you to escape. A difficult moment: the blackheads! But you do have to do it once in a while don’t you? Then it’s time for the arm and shoulder massage. 20 minutes, long enough to feel really relaxed. That’s it, you’re all zen! Perfect because it’s time for the mask and you’ll need to leave it on a little while. It’s impossible to resist a small snooze at this stage. The treatment ends with a skin moisturizer. To finish it off, a delicate mist is sprinkled over your face. It’s over. Time to go back to reality. But it’s not the end of the world: you feel great and your face is radiant! Who said you had to suffer to be beautiful?
