BEST CLARIFYING FACIAL
AQUA PEEL FACIAL EDITORS’ CHOICE
Every now and then, you may notice that your skin looks dull, and makeup doesn’t go on as smoothly as it once did. Before you throw out your skincare products, thinking they no longer work for you, try a clarifying face treatment. A clarifying facial gets deep into skin to cleanse the pores, removing the debris and dead cells clogging and dulling your skin.
Astute Medical Aesthetics & Laser Clinic’s Aqua Peel Facial ($150 for 60min) is designed to effectively reduce skin breakouts by cleansing and exfoliating the superfi cial layers of the skin. It uses different acids to help revive a lacklustre complexion. It incorporates the use of lactic acid, a type of alpha-hydroxy acid which exfoliates, brightens and hydrates skin. Salicylic acid is also used – this betahydroxy acid dissolves skin debris inside your pores with the aim of preventing breakouts. Hyaluronic acid keeps skin well hydrated, while pure distilled water cleanses.
After each skincare product is applied, the therapist uses a special delivery handpiece to massage the skin for better product absorption. Another bonus: The clarifying face treatment helps to balance skin. So if your complexion is overly dry or oily, it ends up looking healthy, fresh and normalised.
