Skins Cosmetics opened its now store a little while ago and with it Skins Institute. Skins Institute offers a unique array of treatments, one of which I was lucky to undergo last Monday.

The official term is a hair and scalp analysis and treatment, but I will refer to this little moment of bliss as a hair facial. Paulina Moes explained in detail which products she was using and the philosophy behind this product line.

Leonor Greyl, a French company based in Paris has been a pioneer in hair care for 35 years. A personal treatment will be created for you to ensure a healthy scalp and great looking hair. Paulina Moes, a well known hairstylist has received special training to use these products and manage the treatments.

I will take you through the process step by step….
