Antonia Burrell Express Facials at The Private Clinic in Cheapside

It’s called the ‘15 minute express power facial’ but it surely left me feeling like I had been pampered for over an hour.

Antonia Burrell, is one of the UK’s best-loved skincare experts with a holistic skincare product line that is 100% natural and ethical.

Her wealth of natural plant and aromatherapy knowledge, coupled with her extensive experience as a therapist, has made her one of the most sought after and renowned skincare experts in the UK today.

She understands the importance of well-being internally and externally and the time constraints the professional world has put on us.

With that in mind, Antonia was inspired and led to create her new line of tailor-made trio of 15 minute power facials made specifically for the busy individual.

The trio of facials are:

Lift & Plump
Perfect for ageing skin, the lift & pump express facial is designed to literally massage years away. The firming 15 minute treatment incorporates complex acupressure and lymphatic drainage techniques to leave skin plump and smooth; cheeks appear lifted, the jawline is sculpted and the eye area is relieved of puffiness and sagging.

Nourish & Repair
The city can take its toll on our skin, leaving it dry and dull. Antonia’s Nourish & Repair facial harnesses innovative Oleosome technology and natural ingredients to hydrate, refresh and nourish. Complete with Mango Butter and Meadowfoam Seed Oil, the treatment can help repair cellular skin damage and leave you with a replenished glow.

Polish & Glow
Looking for a little bit of VIP treatment on your skin in time for a party, holiday or just an average day at work? Antonia’s Polish & Glow facial is the ultimate in skin resurfacing, brightening your skin to relieve the appearance of wrinkles and leave you looking healthy and fresh. The treatment clears the skin of dead cells and dullness, leaving a perfectly smooth base for make-up, or a radiant glow for those days you’d rather leave your skin bare.

The Private Clinic, Cheapside is perfectly located in The City where it meets with busy professionals daily.

I was met by the lovely Antonia herself. A friendly woman that is full of positive energy that is infectious. We briefly chatted about my day as she led me into the treatment room that had a dimmed and calming ambiance. As I lay there, Antonia told me to relax and forget about everything and enjoy being pampered as the relaxing music played in the background.

As I closed my eyes the worries of the world left me as Antonia cleaned my face and began my Lift & Plump facial, firstly using steam to open my pores. I was in heaven.
She gently scrubbed my skin and used a hot towel in between each step.

She then applied plenty of her Radiant Light Serum from her own product line which is a skin brightening blend of 18 pure plant extracts including Frankincense, Rosewood and Sea Buckthorn, formulated to correct pigmentation, stimulate skin cell renewal and restore radiance and translucency.

But it was Antonia’s massage techniques that worked every muscle in my face that had me in awe. I had never had a facial like this before!

The 15 minutes were indescribable. A combination of feeling like a regular 1 hour facial yet done in enough time for me to grab lunch and head back to the office to eat it.

I felt powerful and my skin felt rejuvenated and softer than ever before. I was relaxed and ready to take on the world again. My face looked contoured and perked-up almost as if I just had a nip and tuck!

All in all the treatment took 20 minutes with 15 minutes being hands-on time and I can’t recommend this enough.

You can be treated with one of her expertly trained therapists for £25 or with Antonia herself for only £35.

This is now my newest monthly ritual that’s the simplest no-brainer ever! A brilliant creation.
