One of my favorite ways to splurge on Self- care is to book a treatment. As a lady, there’s something so transformative about a pamper day which leaves you feeling totally revitalized.
This week, I opted for a facial as my skin has been feeling dull and dehydrated. I went in with the expectation of getting my skin glow back & feeling more relaxed.

I booked in with the lovely Jas who owns Jas Studio, if you are based in Dublin, I’d recommend you pop her a visit. Her studio is quaint & comfortable with an Art deco / chic vibe.

Pre-session Jas asked me to bring my skincare products that I use & to kick off we discussed my current skincare routine & favorite products. (Which is minimal I may add).

Before starting the facial, Jas asked if I’d like;

1. No talking: complete Zen & relax or,

2. Communication & information about my skin & the treatment.

I picked choice two & I found this was the perfect balance between informative & relaxing. Jas was able to tell me my skin type; explain the treatment she chose to provide & what my problem areas are. What I loved most about the treatment was that Jas also focuses on the décolletage & you get a head massage while your eye treatment is on.

Having had several facials in various salons in the past, how this session stood out for me was the attention to detail & communication.
Jas didn’t try to push the purchase of products or upsell which I loved. After our session she was able to share a recommend simple skin care routine including affordable drug store products.
