Beauty Review: This 3-Step Oxygen Facial Gives You Clear, Smooth Skin Instantly
TaraBliss' Oxygen Med Renewal facial treats dull, uneven skin and helps your complexion become brighter and clearer immediately after.
By ISABEL ONG,
The treatment
The 120-minute facial begins with a relaxing head and shoulder massage, as well as cleansing and exfoliating (extraction included). Next, the therapist applies a clarifying toner on face and starts the first oxygen infusion treatment using a handheld device that pushes oxygen into skin (which reportedly helps rejuvenate skin) for 10 minutes. An oxygen-infused mist is then sprayed over the face for the next 10 minutes. Thereafter, the therapist gives me a face and shoulder massage, and after the products are washed off, a cooling mask is applied onto skin, along with an oxygen mask strapped over my nose and mouth (so I breathe in clean, pure air throughout this 15-minute segment). After the masks are taken off, it ends with the therapist applying skincare - a hydrating toner, eye cream and sunblock - all over face and neck.
The verdict
My skin appeared clearer and brighter post-treatment and also felt smoother. My dark circles also appeared slightly less obvious. I particularly enjoyed filling my lungs with pure oxygenated air (after all, it's an experience that doesn't happen often in our polluted environment).
