Which type of facial can best tackle combination skin?
A complex condition marked by dry cheeks and an oily T-zone, combination skin is a skincare challenge many of us face. This skin type brings the struggle of dealing with both oily and dry patches; you’d have to tackle blackheads and acne outbreaks in the oily zones, as well as dull, flaky skin in the dry areas. As confusing as this may sound already, that’s not the hardest part yet: finding the right skincare products that address both extremes is in itself a big challenge, where you have to ensure that the products you use to tackle one condition don’t compromise the other.
As such, I’ve spent years experimenting with different products off-the-shelf, only for it to not work out well. Rather than to continue throwing money down the drain, I decided to seek professional help once and for all, hoping for a breakthrough. That’s when I came across My Cozy Room; a renowned spa known for its many accolades and glowing reviews, I decided that this place could be the place for me. After all, what do I have to lose?
Ultimate Pore Extraction Facial for Combination Skin
Upon arriving at the spa, which has a cosy all-white European interior, I was greeted by Celine, who’s the boss behind My Cozy Room. At a glance, she could already tell what laid beneath my makeup – a combination of dullness, dark spots, and clogged pores. As such, she recommended me to opt for the spa’s award-winning Ultimate Pore Extraction Facial, a comprehensive 22-step treatment designed to tackle precisely the kinds of issues plaguing my skin.
The session began with a relaxing Guasha head massage, which sets the tone for the relaxing experience that was to come. Afterwhich, the beautician applied a generous amount of their Miracle Cleansing Oil all over my face, as well as their homemade natural Renewal Peel, paving the way for a facial steaming process helped to expand my pores – it was the perfect way to slowly prep my skin for the extraction process later.
The heart of the treatment was the thorough manual extraction process, and is My Cozy Room’s key expertise. While many spas opt for digital methods to carry out extraction, My Cozy Room has chosen to remain faithful to their roots manual extraction – such natural methods are known to be more effective in the long run, and beauticians can better cater the extraction to suit the nuances of the customer’s skin. Plus, their beauticians are exceptionally skilled at manual extraction, making it all the more the right choice to preserve the practice.
Using an Ultrasonic Skin Scrubber and a Pore Refine Solution Mask, the beautician prepared my skin before meticulously clearing out every clogged pore, while ensuring any pain and discomfort I faced was minimised. To soothe any irritation, a special cream was applied post-extraction.
But the pampering didn’t end there. A lymphatic drainage massage with a high-frequency device was followed by the application of an Elixir serum and a session under a cooling light device to help reduce any redness, ensuring my skin felt as good as it looked.
While I thoroughly enjoyed the treatment thus far, it was only at this moment when I experienced my favourite part: I was pampered with a Crystal Eye massage, as well as a Hotstone Neck and Shoulder massage. These two massages are a delightful contrast between hot and cold, and helped to melt away the tension and stress locked within my muscles effectively. Afterwards, the beautician applied a refreshing layer of Premium Alginate Mask to let my skin rest once more, leaving my skin incredibly soothed.
Just by placing my before and after pictures together, you could easily say that the final outcome was nothing short of miraculous. The visible improvements were immediate; not only did my skin look much cleaner, smoother and radiant, it also felt significantly healthier. The combination of deep pore cleansing, unique one-of-a-kind massages, and premium skincare products used was a game-changer for my stubborn combination skin.
