What: Deep Cleansing Collagen Facial with Nataliya Robinson
The lowdown: Chelsea’s favourite facialist has a new toy: and Nataliya Robinson’s face and scalp rollers are a non-invasive route to perking up lacklustre skin. The treatment begins with a thorough deep-cleanse (she uses a solution derived from herbs and bio-available coral, which gently refines and resurfaces) and extractions. Next, the ‘needling’: Nataliya rolls the golden, spiky balls across the contours of the face and lips, down the neck and décolleté and even up into the hairline, gently stimulating collagen production while draining accumulated fluid (the magnetic charge of the devices helps to move stagnant fluid towards the lymph nodes, eliminating puffy faces). Unlike medical-grade micro-needling there’s no blood or bruising – just a mild flush which looks rather becoming. A final pass of her icy cryotherapy wand across the skin leaves the visage tighter and brighter (she’ll even send you away with balls, to maintain the effects at home).
