What is Herbal Peeling?
Herbal peeling is a natural facial treatment that uses finely ground medicinal herbs mixed with a special liquid. This herbal blend is gently infused into your skin through rhythmic hand movements, helping to improve circulation, clear congestion, and stimulate skin renewal—without any peeling or downtime.
The treatment includes traditional botanicals such as horsetail, poria mushroom, silkworm extract, dokudami, pinellia, and sulfur, all known for their detoxifying, soothing, and balancing properties. Because there is no harsh abrasion or acid involved, it is safe for sensitive skin and can be enjoyed even while traveling.
Treatment Flow
Your 60-minute herbal peeling session is designed to be both effective and relaxing. Here’s what to expect:
- 1. Skin Consultation: We begin with a short consultation to assess your skin condition and concerns.
- 2. Cleansing: The face is gently cleansed to remove surface impurities.
- 3. Herbal Infusion: A blend of finely powdered herbs is mixed with a custom liquid and gently pressed into the skin using the palms of the hands. This pressing motion is repeated 3 to 4 times, alternating with sprays of a hydrating herbal lotion to aid absorption and keep the skin moisturized. This process feels like a gentle facial massage and enhances skin hydration and calming effects.
- 4. Herbal Mask: A soothing herbal mask is applied to seal in moisture and allow the herbs to work more deeply.
- 5. Finishing Care: After removing the mask, we apply toner and moisturizing cream to balance and protect the skin.
No redness, no peeling, and no downtime—just smooth, refreshed, and radiant skin.
