Lumina Deep Renewal & Balance Manual Facial

Lumina Deep Renewal & Balance Facial (90 Minutes — $145)

The 90-minute treatment transitions the experience from standard maintenance into a deeply restorative therapeutic ritual. The expanded timeframe allows the esthetician to address persistent skin concerns with greater precision. It is ideal for clients dealing with moderate follicular congestion, deeper dehydration, or elevated muscle tension in the face, neck, and shoulders.

To provide a deeply restorative, results-driven therapeutic experience, this 90-minute journey is structured as an advanced, multi-phase manual ritual that targets deeper layers of muscle tension and cellular repair:

• Phase 1: Welcome Consultation & Sensory Awakening (Minutes 1–5): The client's nervous system is gently calmed using a warm herbal pillow placed under the neck, accompanied by a soothing, manual inhalation ritual. A fine mist of organic, distilled rosemary or orange blossom hydrosol is swept over the face to open the senses.
• Phase 2: The Double Cleanse Ceremony (Minutes 5–15): The skin is prepared with a lipid-rich cleansing balm containing chamomile and avocado oils, manually massaged over dry skin to melt away stubborn sebum, impurities, and sunscreen. This is emulsified with warm water and gently removed using heated cotton compresses. A second, water-soluble milky cleanser containing green tea polyphenols is then applied to clarify the skin surface without depleting the natural lipid barrier.
• Phase 3: Enzymatic Resurfacing under Warm Steam (Minutes 15–30): A professional fruit enzyme mask (utilizing pumpkin, papaya, or raspberry enzymes) is painted onto the face and neck using a soft fan brush. A warm, fine mist of chamomile-infused steam is directed over the treatment area. The thermal action softens the stratum corneum, allowing the enzymes to dissolve dead skin cell bonds.
• Phase 4: Precise Manual Extractions & Calming (Minutes 30–45): Using cotton-wrapped fingers, the esthetician systematically clears blackheads, whiteheads, and follicular blockages. This meticulous, device-free process minimizes tissue trauma. Once extractions are complete, an alcohol-free, lavender-infused calming toner is swept over the skin to soothe dilated capillaries and restore proper pH balance.
• Phase 5: Sculpting Gua Sha or Cool Ice Globe Therapy (Minutes 45–65): The classic facial massage is significantly elevated. The esthetician utilizes smooth, chilled rose quartz Gua Sha stones or cooling ice globes to gently glide along the facial meridians and lymphatic pathways. This step relieves deep-seated jaw tension, promotes manual lymphatic drainage to eliminate puffiness, and visibly sculpts and contours the jawline, cheekbones, and brow arches.
• Phase 6: Multi-Masking & Warm Hand Cocoon (Minutes 65–80): A highly customized dual-masking protocol is executed. A purifying, mineral-rich clay mask is applied to areas prone to congestion, while a deep, lipid-replenishing botanical cream mask is applied to the neck, cheeks, and décolleté. While these formulas cure, the client's hands are treated to a warming hydration ritual: hands are massaged with warm sunflower oil and wrapped in cotton gloves and cozy flaxseed mitts.
• Phase 7: Spearmint Scalp Melt & Protective Closing (Minutes 80–90): The masks are removed using a sequence of warm, steamed compresses. The client receives a slow, slow-rhythm scalp massage using a cooling, spearmint-infused botanical balm to melt away mental stress. The treatment concludes with the layer-by-layer application of a firming peptide-rich serum, a nourishing eye and lip contour gel, a barrier-repairing lipid cream, and a broad-spectrum mineral sunscreen.
