We all want to treat our skin well, but regular spa facials can easily break your bank account. An easy at-home skincare system can be just as efficient, if used regularly, and cost only a fraction of a spa visit (while still leaving your skin glowing!)
Swiss label Qiriness has been formed with this very goal in mind, offering women a simple, at-home wellness solution. The brand’s name is derived from the Greek words ‘Kyria’ and ‘Ines,’ which mean harmony and balance, plus the letter Q, which is the symbol of femininity.
The 3-step regime begins with Le Wrap Exfolys (radiant buffing mask), which will gently cleanse and exfoliate skin. The unique formula is filled with yeast extract, which removes dead skin and clears pores while stimulating cell renewal and activating microcirculation. Leave on for just 30 seconds before rinsing with warm water.
Second, use the Sauna Visage (herbal facial steam bath), a small tablet that’s packed full of eight plant extracts and herbal essences like Siberian pine, eucalyptus, lavender, red thyme and Tunisian rosemary. Drop the tablet in a large bowl with 1 litre of boiling water. Wait until it’s completely dissolved then lean your face over the rising steam (keeping it 10 to 15 inches above). Cover your head with a towel to keep the steam in, then close eyes and hold your face for about five minutes.
The third and final step is Le Wrap D’eau (extreme moisture balm). Now that your skin is soothed, purified and detoxified, you can pamper it with this super rich, whipped moisture-packed balm. It’s available in three versions: soft and relaxing (for tired, stressed and dull skin), ultra hydrating (which works like a glass of water for your face) or nourishing (revitalizes and energizes your skin’s metabolism). The balms can be used for 10 minutes as a quick facial, or through the night as an intensive treatment for maximum benefit.
All Qiriness products are hypoallergenic and paraben-free.
Qiriness products are available exclusively at Ici ParisXL.
