Our most-asked question at the front desk is not about a product. It is: what should I actually do at home? Here is the ritual Mara recommends to nearly everyone.
1. Warm cleanse
Massage a cleansing balm over dry skin for a full minute, then remove with a warm, damp cloth. Slow is the point.
2. A gentle mask
Choose something soothing rather than stripping — a clay mask diluted with a few drops of oil, or a cream mask left on while you make tea.
3. Five minutes of massage
With a few drops of facial oil, sweep from the centre of the face outward and down the neck. It drains puffiness and, frankly, it feels wonderful.
4. Seal and sleep
Finish with your usual moisturiser and go to bed early. The ritual matters less than the rest it invites.
