According to you, that blemish wasn’t so red. In fact, barely noticeable. And it was never going to erupt.
Yeah, neither was Mount Vesuvius.
You pore thing. When it comes to acne, aging, and the finickiest skin conditions, facialist April Walden will tell it to you straight.
Her approach is simple: Do whatever it takes. Count on budget-friendly custom treatments that start with a thorough cleansing and skin analysis, followed by any number of personalized peels and rehydrating masques applied all over or swabbed on just so, gentle extractions, relaxing massage, and possibly even nutritional tricks that’ll get your skin to glow.
A note to vapor lovers: Walden skips the steam in most treatments.
She’s not full of hot air.
