For Nordstrom, if you want to do something, doing it right the first time is its main priority. Which can explain why they teamed up with Sisley Paris to host several modifying and beauty treatments in their tiny oasis. Sisley Paris is better known all over the world for its plant-based skincare, including a famous black rose face mask that is a standing symbol on the average it-girl's vanity. Before getting a facial, I was assured I would be in good hands from the nail tech a walk away at Base Coat, as the esthetician spearheading Sisley Paris' services has been working there since the opening of the Beauty Haven.
Past the mini kiosks lied rooms in a secluded and closed-off area where they buried the studios for facials, massages, and more invasive treatments. Without education, it was understood that there are facials and then there are facials. Whether you’re after one that uses invasive hi-tech extracting tools to rid of your blackheads and perfect your pores, or if you're looking for an esthetician with the most loving hands to bring the glow back into your face after a weeks worth of work's depletion, Sisley provides that for you, education and product knowledge included. The fixed opportunities that lie within Sisley Paris is that it leaves so much room for you to choose from that will cater best to your individual needs.
From the 12 curated options, the Phyto-aromatic skin Perfecting Facial that lasted an all-inclusive 50 minutes of pampering and education stood out. This particular treatment is a luxurious journey of softness and pleasure, that softens expression lines and refines the skin, revealing its radiance and freshness. A skin-perfecting treatment targeting all marvels accountable for dilated pores, exposing flawless-looking skin, in all lighting. And, the esthetician works with your individual needs because skin isn't a monolith. In this personal experience, the skin therapist focused on brightening and ridding of blackheads because that's what my skin called for. The 50-minute treatment leaves exposed flawless-looking skin that rejuvenates the surface and retains its natural bounce and radiance.

“The agriculture that produces our Biodynamic ingredients actually benefits the land and soil upon which they are grown (our farm included) so the more successful our company can be, so too can our Biodynamic farmers be successful, and together we can promote a method of agriculture that can help heal our planet,” Prioglio and Bontin explained.
Because of Prioglio and de Bontin’s combined passion for environmentalism, they wanted this project to be a labor of love dedicated to our world’s natural magnificence. After years of studying the local soil and different agricultural methods, they finally settled on a system of closed-loop agriculture, which incorporates regenerative farming techniques.
These innovative practices do not allow extraneous materials to penetrate the soil, but instead, they emphasize the utility of materials that are already present on the farm. GMO’s are prohibited, plant waste is always recycled, and extra care is given to each and every crop that is grown. This excessive commitment to sustainability did not go unrecognized either, as Maison/Made is now the creator of the first certified biodynamic face oil.
To be Demeter-certified as biodynamic means that the product was crafted to the highest of standards with the most esteemable ingredients. As Maison/Made’s silky and hydrating facial oil includes ingredients such as lemon balm, sunflower, and sea buckthorn — all harvested at their prime — it is not surprising that the brand achieved this prestigious certification.
Enhance your natural glow and infuse your skincare routine with a little extra dose of freshness by shopping the Maison Collection at maisonmade.co.
Enth began tattooing while in medical school, and now has designed perfect combination of his coveted tattoo style and the skin-care brand’s simplistic and angelic aesthetic. And this time, the mask has a new-and-improved design that allows your skin to peer through the patch.
For each purchase of the medical-grade silicone eye masks (that will leave your skin dewy and refreshed), Dieux is also donating 10% to In The Making, an organization that means a great deal to Enth. “In the Making is a non-profit that supports communities that I identify with,” he tells office. “They are a resource center that provides essentials and education to underprivileged communities. They work with the homeless epidemic in LA and also provide workshops that help the youth with real life situations, like filing their taxes. I chose In the Making to receive the proceeds because Dieux Skin can provide not only financial support, but also provide products to people in these communities that don't have the luxury of prioritizing their skincare.”
Enth, who grew up in a big family, is heavily inspired by his family and his tattoo-artist big brother and cares greatly about the community he grew up in: East Los Angeles. When you can consume products from a brand like Dieux that cares so much about transparency, raising skincare standards, sustainability, and responsibility, and support such a worthwhile cause, what’s not to like?
When asked about his design creative process for this collab, David explained, “I gathered a bunch of ideas that related to Dieux Skin’s angelic energy. We agreed on cherubs and a custom font for the Forever Eye Masks. The cherubs were perfect for design since they are also a popular tattoo. “Forever” was the perfect name since tattoos are also forever!”
You can find these limited edition Forever Eye Masks exclusively on Dieux Skin. Make sure you kick back and relax with these so you can do good and look good while treating yourself!
