In an effort to go beyond its retail offerings and expand its beauty treatments, Sephora has begun offering an in-store treatment called the PERK Hydrating Facial. This means that consumers can now pamper their skin while picking up their favorite makeup.
The PERK Hydrating Facial is a unique treatment that helps to cleanse the skin by clearing out clogged pores. To begin, a consultant evaluates the moisture levels in your skin, before exfoliating with a cleaning solution, and then brightening the skin with a nutrient-rich serum. Perhaps the best part (or worst, depending on how squeamish you are), is that all of the oil and dirt sucked out of your pores is emptied into nearby a jar for your viewing pleasure.
