If you are getting married and want your skin to look as though you have been drinking collagen for breakfast, this high performance Korean facial should be top of your list. A favourite among brides who want to walk down the aisle with skin that is plump, polished and practically incandescent, the Korean Bespoke Facial is as luxurious as it is results driven. Each treatment is entirely customised on the day and begins with a meticulous double cleanse followed by gentle enzymatic exfoliation to remove dead skin and prepare the canvas. A slow, sculpting lymphatic massage comes next, designed to relieve facial tension and visibly lift the jawline and cheekbones. Then comes a tailored acid peel, chosen based on how the skin is presenting that day. It is expertly formulated to treat dullness, fine lines or congestion while remaining suitable for even the most sensitive bridal complexions.
What follows is a generous layering of active Korean cosmeceuticals, with silk proteins to smooth, marine collagen to hydrate and peptides to brighten and restore glow. A hydrating blue mask is applied towards the end to calm and plump, leaving the skin balanced and glassy. India, who delivers the treatment with a level of intuition and precision that is hard to find, adapts each facial to exactly what the skin needs in that moment. Brides emerge with skin that is instantly fresher, firmer and more luminous, and report that results continue to improve in the days that follow. Whether booked as a one off or as part of a longer skin journey, this facial delivers exactly what you want in the lead up to a wedding: calm, clear and beautifully balanced skin that photographs like a dream.

Best for: Manual sculpting and deep relaxation
By Cally Squires
Once deep inside the HVN wellness hub, it’s easy to forget you’re in the heart of bustling Knightsbridge. Spa visitors are greeted by the sound of gentle birdsong and the HVN signature scent, which you can bottle up and take home thanks to the brand’s own room fragrance and candle.
The Ayurvedic Kansa wand facial is designed to stimulate lymphatic drainage, enhance circulation, plump the skin, and crucially align the three doshas to relieve stress. The magic begins with a gentle cleanse followed by an exfoliating scrub, and then attention turns to the feet, where a similar ritual is performed, including the use of the Kansa wand.
As with all good treatments, you can bespoke the facial to your personal needs and preferences. My therapist, Sonia, expertly focused on manual sculpting and lifting to ensure I left glowing and with the highest cheekbones known to woman.
My dewy skin was courtesy of not one but two masks—first a sheet mask and then a nutrient-filled seaweed mask which, if you’re not claustrophobic, can completely cover your eyes and mouth thanks to the rubber-like texture formed when the seaweed sets. During both mask applications, the facial was complemented by divine scalp and shoulder massages, made all the more blissful thanks to HVN’s signature waterbeds, which give the sensation of floating on cloud nine.
Gentle lighting in the relaxation room slowly coaxes you back to the real world, but not before a cup of the HVN signature (and highly Instagrammable) blue herbal tea.

By Rosalyn Wikeley
It’s not often that Piccadilly Circus and serenity share the same sentence. But just behind its headache-inducing screens and swarms of tourists lies a heavy, unassuming door with Narnia-like quality. Welcome to Akasha Spa, the high-gloss, marvellously marbled Hotel Café Royal’s very own oasis, and perhaps central London’s best kept secret. As well as a subterranean 60 ft pool that would make a country hotel spa blush and the delightful sauna-steam-room-hot tub sequence, the spa is renowned for its holistic approach to treatments, making for a forward-thinking menu rather than your classic pummelling list. It follows then that facials are not the classic scrub, squeeze and plump sort, but channel informed approaches to stress, pollution and the toxic nature of modern life. Hens and brides-to-be should opt for the Valmont Vitality of the Glaciers facial where a nimble-fingered therapist massages super-charged nutrients deep into the skin’s layers, improving circulation and triggering cellular renewal. The best part? A cool collagen mask finale leaves skin looking plump and luminous, so you’re set to head out for supper (without needing to wait for marks or redness to go down in the changing rooms)!

Talented facialist Katie England’s new wellness residency at NoMad London specialises in holistic skincare, providing the perfect antidote to all the wedding preparation stress. Her treatments are all individually tailored and results-driven and we would recommend booking a series in the run-up to the D-Day. One of her unique signature treatments is The Immersive 360° – a 90-minute treatment that aims to regenerate your skin and lymphatic system.
Through scent, sound, pressure therapy massage for the lower half of the body and boosted oxygen intake, this bespoke full-body treatment promotes reactivation of the lymphatic system, which detoxifies, stimulates blood flow to your skin, and supports metabolism. Katie starts by popping your lower half of the body in the SLIMYONIK® AIR Bodystyler which gently activates your lymph system, boosts your metabolism, and increases the flow of blood to your skin and fatty tissue – it feels like a big comforting hug with just enough pressure. The treatment then starts with a skin cleanse with gorgeous smelling Wild Source Baobab, Calendula, Sweet orange oil followed by a pink clay mask, and a massage to open the lymph system – with part of the treatment time dedicated to Katie’s renowned facial and buccal massage techniques. I was a little apprehensive ahead of the buccal part but it was surprisingly relaxing and released all the tension from the jaw area as well as creating lymphatic drainage. This was followed by facial cupping which is designed to stimulate blood flow and as a result natural collagen production and was weirdly enjoyable.
You will leave NoMad rosy cheeked and glowing just wishing you can do it all again soon. My skin felt plump and completely rehydrated and my tired eyes’ dark circles had even disappeared.
Katie’s bespoke facials are elevated into the ultimate holistic experience: a 90-minute health retreat for skin, body and mind – The Immersive 360° is £320 for a 90-minute treatment

In the hectic months leading up to a wedding, self- care can drop down the list of priorities for most brides-to-be. Cue Sarah Bradden, the globally renowned acupuncture facialist who’s made- to -measure holistic methods and healing hands have garnered her a cult following. Entirely bespoke to your personal physiological makeup, the method is best described in Sarah’s own words as ‘a spiritual reset and a facelift’. Drawing on Ancient Eastern wisdom and modern western technology, it all begins with a consultation around lifestyle, diet and health which gives Sarah all the information she needs about your overall well being and enables her to tailor your facial. The treatment that ensues is a delicious and heady concoction of acupuncture, activated oxygen, LED light therapy, and acupressure ear seeds to stimulate acupressure points during the treatment and also for days following treatment. The ritual is rounded off with an invigorating, sculpting facial massage and delivers all the the things you’d expect from a traditional facial: it defines, sculpts, renews and re-energises. But it also goes the extra mile; balancing hormones, aiding digestion, de-stressing and so much more. Even the most tightly wound bride will drift into a state of relaxation and emerge with a supercharged pre wedding glow. Considering this 45 min boost is a truncated version of the signature treatment, it packs a glowy punch and one can only imagine the levels of relaxation and luminosity that the full treatment would deliver.
