Alkaline Wash
Is your skin looking dull, textured, or uneven? Do you struggle with peach fuzz or find your skincare and makeup not sitting quite right?
Treatment & Results
Alkaline Wash utilises an alkaline solution to temporarily increase the skins pH causing it to soften and dissolve dead skin cells as well as the superfluous hair. The result is instantly smoother, brighter skin that absorbs skincare more effectively and provides a flawless base for makeup.
