Hello SB family! Hope all is well. Today, we are discussing skin care!!!! Winter skincare to be specific. My skin and lips tend to become extremely dry, dull and flaky in the winter months due to freezing weather and drying indoor heating. The onset of winter makes me want to fill my bathtub with coconut oil and shea butter and drown myself in it. It may be tempting to skip your body care routine, but just because you can doesn’t mean you should! To make your winter body care routine easier, I wanted a professional to teach me and you how to hydrate, nourish, restore, and soothe winter skin!
I reached out to this brand new Spa I’ve heard so much about by word of mouth called PELLEQUR and I decided to collaborate on this blog post together. The owner/CEO is a fabulous and powerful businesswoman who wanted to put a spin on Korean spa and simultaneously keeping the authenticity of a Korean spa. Korean spas are fabulous but the nudity thing is sometimes nerve-wracking, so I was impressed when I saw that this spa allows complete privacy with the same experience. This beautiful yet quaint spa is located in the heart of Beverly Hills. Pellequr offers proprietary products that are infused with the transformative, healing powers of CBD oil. Upon entering, I was impressed by the stylish interior and the neatness of the lounge area.
I knew right away, It was going to be a place to feel good spiritually, mentally, and physically. First stop, I had a Korean body scrub and massage with CBD oil. What I love about Pellequr is that the owner hires Korean workers because well it makes sense. The lady scrubbed me with a dry brush, then soap, then oil. I was butt naked for 2 hours. She scrubbed parts of me that I never expected to be scrubbed by another human being and I didn’t mind a bit. The Korean lady who scrubbed me gave me advice that is important to invest in a full body scrub at least 2 times a year. I was traumatized as to how much dead skin came off my body. I kept saying “but I shower twice a day”. When she finished, I felt as soft as a hibiscus flower.
Then she gave me a full body massage with CBD oil. I was intrigued right away considering I have severe neck pains. She explained to me that the anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving agents of CBD reduce inflammation within muscles and joints, allowing her as a massage therapist to work more effectively. It was one of the most relaxing experiences of my life and I got to escape stress for a few hours.
As if I wasn’t pampered enough we moved on to a “CUPPING LYMPHATIC FACIAL”. Facials are an integral part of keeping my skin glowy during the winter seasons. I’m extremely particular about what goes on my face and most facials list things that my skin can’t handle but the description of this particular facial was tailored to my skin concerns. This facial is based on Refresh Facial, with manual and machine cupping, an effective way to sculpt your jawline, reduce puffiness from under the eyes and support skin health. It’s like an instant face-lift. Within days, I felt my eyebrows lifted, my forehead tightened and jawline sculpted. I also felt like a lot of the excess fluid on my face has been drained. This is a facial you can get weekly or monthly.
Remember, healthy skin is beautiful skin. I feel so relaxed and rejuvenated and ready for NYFW.
Thank you kindly to Pellequr for partnering with me on this post. Have a fabulous week loves. As always, thank you so much for reading.
