Polyglutamic Acid:  Talk about Hydration station- PA is an incredible  humectant that holds 4x more water than hyaluronic acid. Drink that up! It doesn't only draw water into the cells, flooding your skin with moisture, it also provides a protective film on the skin to prevent the water from evaporating from your skin. Say hello to visibly plumper skin and goodbye to pores. 

Squalene: As an emollient, squalene  helps moisturise and repair dry skin, improving the appearance of skin texture. A secret for super supple, smooth skin.

Niacinamide: Enter your stress free skin era. A serious overachiever that you shouldn't go a day without. Without boasting, Niacinamide minimises inflammation like redness and blotchiness, helps to retain moisture, protects against oxidative stress like pollution & toxins, builds keratin in the skin helping the skin stay firm, and regulates oil to keep acne and stressed out skin at bay. It plays nicely with other actives too, for some seriously zen skin.

Marula oil: used for centuries in Africa as a ‘cure all’, it Seals-in hydration and softens skin, offers antioxidant protection, has anti-inflammatory effects, and eve some antibacterial properties.

Jojoba oil: Rich in beauty-boosting vitamins A, E, and D, plus antioxidants and fatty acids, jojoba oil is actually a wax ester with  properties similar to our skin's own sebum. This means the oil is able to penetrate deeply, reaching below the top layer of skin for maximum nourishment.

Glycerin: A moisture magnet that will make you look like you’ve been guzzling coconut water. We all get a little dehydrated and dry sometimes, which is why we need trusty old glycerin to prevent the loss of water from the skin barrier by providing a outside layer to lock in moisture- allowing natural oils to do their thing and keep skin soft and supple.

Tips for application?

Health retreat is a serum that glides and melts into the skin- therefore you really cant f*** it up. It doesn't dry down and go patchy, it blends and buffs out easily for a seamless finish. Use our on the go brush or hands to work into the complexion. If you want more glow, add a few more drops! if you want less shine, pop some translucent powder on your t-zone to tone down the dewy-ness. 

How much do I apply? 

there is no rules but we think 3 generous drops is a good starting point to cover your complexion and work down your neck. Tailor the amount of glow you want with the amount you apply. have a play around - you can't mess this up.

Should I be using other skin care in conjunction with health retreat? 

Health retreat was made to be a one and done approach to everyday beauty. Formulated with a series of skin loving ingredients that are known to improve the appearance of skin so other skin care is not necessary but of course always optional. If you do apply other serums or sunscreen- apply these first and then pop health retreat on top as your last layer.

Does it stay all day or can I re apply ?

Every skin type is different- for some you’ll be glowing for days and others dry skin will drink it up and dry down quickly. Take a health retreat in your purse or pocket so you can glow on the go- re applying intuitively as needed, topping up at different points throughout the day so you can always arrive feeling nothing but fresh.

How do I choose my correct shade ?

The sunkissed shades are sheer, and provide a wash of colour to your complexion, so you can't really go wrong with either, it just depends on the beauty look you are wanting and what skin tone you are- if you want a reference of how a shade may look on a skintone similar to yours check out the videos of our ‘guests’ on this page or feel free to email us at hello@hotelofbeauty.com with a selfie and we will let you know what shade we think is best for you.

What kind of coverage does Health retreat have?

Health retreat is a glow serum which provides a uniform effect, evening out the complexion and adding a tint and glow to the skin- enhancing your skin rather than covering it up. If you want extra coverage you can always mix in your favourite foundation with it or pop some concealer on top of the ‘health retreat’ base. 

What is the expiration date of Health Retreat?

Each product has a PAO (Period after opening) of 12M.

Can you layer Health Retreat on top of your favourite foundation?

Sure can! Apply your foundation/concealer as you normally would, then use health retreat on top  for more hydration and glow where the light naturally hits—high points of cheeks, bridge of nose, cupid’s bow, brow bones for a targeted glow.
