So much of self-care lies in taking time for yourself, but it’s really much easier said than done — it takes conscious effort to step away from the screen and those ever-pinging Slack threads. As well-being becomes a more central theme in our lives, and the way we approach work and labour changes, taking a day off — just to do nothing! – can be a great way to take stock and catch your breath.
With that being said, one of the best ways to pamper yourself is with a restorative beauty experience — and I’m not talking about the purely functional ones designed to clear skin impurities or clarify the complexion. Those have a role in the regular upkeep of the skin, but these three experiences are the ones that are truly special, with beautiful interiors, innovative products and sensorial treatments that will have you feeling lighter than air.
DIOR PRESTIGE LA SUITE
ION Orchard
The experience within Dior Beauty’s revamped Prestige La Suite is the very essence of happiness. There are two new services to indulge in Dior Beauty’s revamped Prestige La Suite — the Lucibel light machine, which uses red LED to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, and the Sapphire Crystal MicroAbrasion tool. Coated with ultra-fine sapphire particles, the head of the tool vibrates gently on the skin, providing a stimulating massage that exfoliates and promotes cellular regeneration.
