For people with sensitive skin or rosacea , the idea of having a facial can be a scary one. You have to think about the products they will use a lot of ingredients can cause flare ups , how much force they will use, how warm the room will be. There are a lot of factors! HT by Sakurami London has converted me… read on for the details.
There are a few things that set HT by Sakurami London apart for me. The decor strikes you as soon as you walk in modern but warm with a lot of wood, mirrors and cute British touches ; and the opening hours 9am to 9pm.
I arrived and was greeted by Liuba who was very friendly and introduced me to my facialist, Helen. Liuba and Helen conducted a consultation with me where they asked me what I would like to get out of the facial, any concerns I may have, and asked me questions about my skin. They both seemed knowledgable about sensitive skin types and recommended some appropriate treatment options. Tiny electrical impulses lift and tone the facial muscles, whilst improving skin elasticity and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
The facial was incredibly calming, with an extensive cleanse and light facial massage, followed by the CACI treatment which was very unusual but surprisingly relaxing. The massage is quite firm which made me worry that it would trigger a flare up of my rosacea, but afterwards my skin was glowing, soft and no more red than usual.
The effects of the facial were noticeable for the week following the treatment: my make up went on smoother, my skincare seemed to work harder and I definitely noticed a difference in the fine lines around my eyes and lips.
