The Secret to a Red Carpet Glow? 3 Facials in 1: Danish cosmetician Ole Henriksen has been in the skin care game for decades, so it’s no surprise that stars like Charlize Theron and Katy Perry trust his Los Angeles spa with their beautiful mugs. Danish cosmetician Ole Henriksen has been in the skin care game for decades, so it’s no surprise that stars like Charlize Theron and Katy Perry trust his Los Angeles spa with their beautiful mugs. We dropped by to chat with spa president Vance Soto and learned about their signature award season facial: the Red Carpet Complexion Treatment. The treatment is three facials in one, starting with microdermabrasion. They utilize the Hydrafacial’s Vortex technology for this step, which infuses antioxidants into the skin while sloughing off dead cells. (Meaning it hydrates while resurfacing.) From there, it’s time to contour the face — no highlighter or bronzer needed. Microcurrents are used to help firm and lift the skin, working in an upward motion. The experience culminates with an oxygen infusion, allowing the skin to end with a supple, plump texture. Unable to drop by the spa? Don’t worry! You can re-create this facial at home. Start by sloughing off dead skin with a physical exfoliator. To mimic the facial contouring step, massage the skin in upward, circular motions to increase circulation. Finish with a hydrating mask and moisturizer, and be sure to slather on sunscreen if you’re going out during the day. Check out the video to see Ole Henriksen’s facial experience.
