Taking care of one’s skin is not only about looking good but feeling good as well. While the occasional skin care routine at home helps you to get your skin health back on track.

Facial consists of various steps or regimes for your skin treatment such as cleansing, exfoliation, face masks, face massage and using many other beauty lotions. These treatments are bound to target all problematic areas of your face. They help to deeply cleanse your skin by removing all the dust particles clogging your pores, help to relax your face with the massage, and initiate better blood flow all over the body. They also assist in putting in place an improved skin care routine. Severe acne, acne scars, blemishes, hyperpigmentation, dullness, wrinkles and many other skin conditions – a facial helps to heal your skin from all these issues and revive your skin’s health. 

With so many types of facials available that can be chosen according to your skin problems and skin type, and having a sensitive skin and low preference toward using products with chemicals, I recently got a fruit facial done at Tranquility Spa. Having heard a fruit facial for the first time, I was quite keen to know what it was all about, what are the ingredients, and how it would work on my skin type. Thankfully, my beautician was a very sweet lady who guided me through every step and explained its benefits along the process. 

The first step involved gently massaging my face with milk which is considered one the best natural face cleansers. It was ideal for my acne prone skin as it washes out all the impurities from clogged pores thus preventing black heads. My skin felt supple and moisturized like a baby’s skin. The next step was getting an exfoliation using the mixture of rice powder, honey and steam, all of which are rich in nutrients and vitamins. The steam aided in opening up the pores for better exfoliation and I got to learn from my beautician that rice powder acts as a scrub to remove the dead skin cells and is also a great remedy for dark circles. When mixed with honey, it is rather soft on your skin and prevents microscopic tears caused due to extreme exfoliation, thus preventing acne and ageing, unclogging pores and brightening complexion by getting rid of tans. 

Popular for its hydrating properties and richness in vitamins like A, B1, C and potassium, pieces of cucumber were gently placed on skin especially in places with dark circles to brighten my dull skin. Then the facial involved getting rid of any blackheads in my skin. Lemon juice was gently put on the areas where the blackheads had been removed to ensure that the opened pores would not be exposed to dirt and produce pimples. Lastly, a face pack of honey, bananas and apples mixed together was applied gently onto my skin as to prevent the growth of pimple causing bacteria, lighten dark spots and act as an exceptional anti-ageing natural product.

The whole experience was serene. I loved how each and every ingredient on my skin was chemical free, all natural and focused on every skin issue I had    from dry skin, wrinkles, tans, acne and its scars to clogged pores. My skin felt hydrated and rejuvenated after a long time and it is a must-have beauty routine one must experience at least once a month. With much time and money spent toward achieving a healthy skin, getting your money’s worth is a great feeling and that is exactly what I got to experience at Tranquility Spa. It is important that as our age takes the toll on our body and especially on our skin, we make it a habit to take care of our skin and prioritize getting a facial every once a month. It is not only about preventing skin conditions that result from environment effects, hormones and ageing but also how we feel brighter, younger and healthier after such treatment.
