I don’t know what it was about, but the last few weeks have been
pretty full on with work and life and my face was starting to feel the effects
of late nights, lack of sleep and not the healthiest of diets.
So when I was invited to try out a facial at Anesis Spa, you
couldn’t get me in there fast enough
Based in Clapham Common, can I just pause and declare my love for
the fact that Anesis Spa is on a road called The Pavement because it literally
is the pavement, I just thought that was so cute
Moving on before you think my declarations of love for a road are a
little excessive. The spa itself is really sleek and chic with dark floors,
glass panels and shelves which hold a variety of brands that are focused on
efficacy and not just on looking nice
My facial started off with my therapist Georgia asking me what my
concerns about my face were, which I rattled off with ease (acne scarring, open
pores) but left a few out to see if she would spot them.
I love that she didn’t take my word for it, but whipped out the
scary I can see every pore on your face facial light (I honestly need to get
myself one of those, although on second thoughts it might be a little dangerous
in my hands), not the real name obviously, but that’s what I like to call it.
After careful examination of my face she mentioned the things I left
off, (dehydrated, slightly sensitive/reactive), which left me feeling that I
was in I was safe hands. There is nothing better than a therapist who can
identify what your face really needs without you having to tell them, and I
love that the facial is completely bespoke and customised to your skins
concerns and needs
