Now you too can talk like an editor, lol) with Susan Harmsworth, a former Vogue UK beauty editor turned entrepreneur/genius! She's the brain behind a gorgeous brand called ESPA, which provides products to the world's top spas! Considering some of you might be gearing up for graduation/formals by getting a facial, here are her tips: a) if you have broken capillaries, senstive, or rosacea-prone skin (or if like me, you just hate the claustrophobic feeling), ask the aesthetician to forgo steam. B) do now allow extractions with someone's bare hands (or at all, unless you really, really want/need it)&amp;amp;#xE2;&amp;amp;#xBF;&amp;amp;#xBF;it's super unhygenic. And done poorly, extractions can cause scars. Eek! C) speak up in the beginning of facial about specific concerns you may have. That way you can get a custom-tailored experience! I'm personally hooked on ESPA's ultra-gentle Hydrating Cleansing Milk. It smells like roses&amp;amp;#xE2;&amp;amp;#xBF;&amp;amp;#xBF;so sweet!
