Le Reve "The Dream" Signature Facial

Experience the Le Reve "The Dream" Signature Facial at Le Reve Spa Santa Barbara

Picture this, as you come into Le Reve Spa Santa Barbara you feel instant relaxation. It becomes Pavlovian upon visiting. When you lay on a Le Reve Spa table, you take a slow deep breath in... 1... , 2 ... , 3 ... and then out 3 ... , 2 ... , ... 1. Your stresses begin to escape with each inhale and exhale moving from this point on. While you are slowly zoning off into your happy place, we massage your head and scalp. We lay down two warm floral water eye pads on your eyelids. The sweet floral fragrance assists you in drifting off to a blissful state. Once the eye pads are placed, we start applying a stimulating exfoliating polish onto your hands and lower arms as well as your lower legs and feet. This vigorous body polish not only feels amazing, but it also physically removes a lot of build up of dead skin and impurities utilizing ground walnut shell. 

"Aside from the benefits of the physical polish application walnut shell has to offer you have an additional exfoliating benefit. This is because walnut shell is a great source of lactic acid. Lactic acid works to eat away at dead skin over time with or without utilizing a physical exfoliating method added. This is great news for your hands, lower arms and legs, and feet which are left "baby soft" following this treatment."_Le Reve Skincare Specialist and Chemist, Bridgette

Take another deep breath in ... 1... , 2 ... , 3 ... and out 3 ... , 2 ... , 1 ... Feel the pressure of our hands onto your temples, and feel the warm brush on your skin as we cleanse your face. Feel the brush glide onto your skin in a synchronize almost hypnotic motion. Using warm sponges to remove the cleanser, we then analyze your skin to identify your skin type and condition. After our skin analysis we do our second cleanse. This helps penetrate deeper into your pores to continue to remove any impurities your skin may have.

Afterward, we exfoliate your face, neck, and décolleté to help soften and remove any dead skin. As you lay there relaxing, we provide you a soothing head, neck and shoulder massage. You continue to drift while listening to the calming spa music coupled with the relaxing white noise provided by our fountains and our historic maple floors . Upon removing your exfoliant, our esthetician will begin to prep your skin for treatment. During this time a calming facial massage is applied to help the skin continue to break down impurities and prepare the skin for what comes next. 

Quick side note; "A great facial massage helps to increase circulation of red oxygenated blood flow which helps in the refortification process of any skincare regimen. Increased red oxygenated blood flow works like a phenomenal delivery system to transport to our cells vital nutrients that benefit skin's health and overall appearance. Specific massage techniques like lymphatic and acupressure also assists in detoxifying the skin, decreasing inflammation, and increasing collagen production. "_Le Reve Spa Skincare Specialist and Chemist, Bridgette

During this time, if you are like most of our guests, you may have nodded off. While you are in a state of cloud nine your skin is treated with a series of masks designed to meet your specific skin care needs. 

Once the appropriate time has passed per treatment application, we remove it using a hot compress treated with hydrating essence to help groom the skin. Your skin is then rehydrated and conditioned with the proper serums and moisturizers.  We gently wake you up before we step out by having you breath in 1 ... , 2 ... , 3 ... , and out 3 ... , 2 ... , 1 ... While welcoming you back to the day you are offered cool fresh water to help further rehydrate you. 


     All of our facials are great, but the Le Reve "The Dream" Signature Facial has to be one of my favorites to give. One big reason is, you get pampered on not only your face, neck, and décolleté, but you are also tackles of on your hands and feet which at times get neglected. You come out of this service rehydrated feeling like a brand new person and feeling ready to take on the day.

Thank you for joining us on this virtual experience of our Le Reve "The Dream" Signature Facial. We hope to see you in person soon in person!
