The facial treatments that make you walk out the door so radiant

My New Year's resolution for 2022 was to do more self-care, because I often neglected that. So I've been busy figuring out which facial treatment really works for me. Fortunately, I found it, and it's one where I really notice a difference. I make sure that I don't have to appear anywhere else for the rest of the day, because I always leave the house looking nicely red.

Not a good time for that? Then choose one of the treatments below, after which you'll walk out feeling fresh and fruity. No downtime at all, but very good for your skin. A win-win situation, if you ask me.

The Icoone® 
This treatment is ideal if your skin has become a bit looser over the years. That's not strange at all: your skin becomes less elastic as you age, resulting in sagging, wrinkles, and fine lines. This treatment counters that, through a mechanical connective tissue massage that stimulates blood circulation and helps to drain excess moisture. I often have that under my eyes, so this treatment is great for me.

In addition, the contours of your face are also enhanced by this treatment. I always find that quite bizarre, because you can see it immediately. Result: a rested face that looks beautiful right away.

The Oxygen Power Facial 
Seriously: I would want this treatment every week. Every day. My skin looks so beautiful afterwards every time, so that result can stay forever as far as I'm concerned. It's an oxygen treatment that keeps your skin young. They use six techniques, of which the needle-free oxygen injection is the very first. I found that incredibly fascinating: this device knows how to reach the skin layer where your skin cells are within a minute.

This treatment also lifts your contours (hence why I wish the effect would last forever) and detoxifies your skin (which I really needed). And you don't have a red face afterwards. I'm going again this week, looking forward to it.

I do these treatments at BLOY Institute in Amsterdam, which I knew because it's just a stone's throw from my house. Highly recommended if you also need some me-time.
