Getting Steamy Backstage

SWINDLE

Spa maven Cygalle Dias treated the models backstage at Charlotte Ronson to a luxe mini facial inspired by a popular treatment she offers at her Cygalle Healing Spa in the Dominican Republic. It goes a little something like this:

Step 1: Take off makeup with Cygalle’s organic chamomile remover (with a purified spring water pH balanced to avoid irritation or stinging).

Step 2: Wash with honey oatmeal cleanser (which moisturizes and promotes elasticity).

Step 3: Polish skin with cranberry antioxidant toner (the biocomplex vitamin C enhances texture and appearance).

Step 4: Slather on raspberry moisturizer (with Amazonian butter, omega 3 and 6, and vitamins C and E — which revitalizes skin and deters free radicals).

Step 5: The Gold Leaf Intensive Eye Treatment will hydrate and smooth fine lines around the eyes and lips.

You can pretty much duplicate the regimen at home, since all the products are available at cygallehealingspastore.com. 

Or, try to win the mini facial kit by correctly answering this question: Why do facialists use steam?
