Facials in Pangbourne: Which One is Right for Your Skin Type?

Let’s be honest for a moment.

You look at the salon menu, and it feels like reading a different language.

Dermaplaning, Fire and Ice, Foaming Enzyme.

They all sound fancy, but how do you know which one your skin really needs?

At Beauty Box Pangbourne, we see this confusion all the time. Clients come in thinking, “I just want great skin, but I don’t know where to start.”

Here it is, a straightforward guide to facials that breaks down each treatment in simple terms so you can make the right choice.

1. Standard Dermaplaning – For Smooth, Glass-Like Skin

If you’ve ever wondered why your foundation doesn’t look right or why your skin seems dull no matter how many serums you use, pay attention.

✔ What it is: A gentle manual exfoliation that removes dead skin cells and peach fuzz. Imagine shaving off all that dullness and fuzziness to reveal bright, baby-smooth skin underneath.

💡 Best for: Normal, dry, or combination skin that wants a flawless canvas and instant glow.

 

2. Skin Peel – For Major Skin Reset

Here’s the truth. If you want to address multiple issues at once—fine lines, acne scars, pigmentation, or dullness—skin peels are your best friend.

✔ What it is:
A professional-grade exfoliating peel that removes dead cells, boosts skin renewal, and leaves you looking fresh and radiant.

💡 Best for: Aging skin, skin prone to breakouts, or anyone ready for a noticeable change.

 

3. Extraction Facial – For Stubborn Congestion

Raise your hand if clogged pores and blackheads are your enemies.

✔ What it is:
A deep cleansing facial that focuses on extractions to remove congestion and clear out built-up gunk.

💡 Best for: Oily, acne-prone, or congested skin that needs a thorough detox.

 

4. Cancer Care Harmony Facial – For Extra Sensitive Skin

If you’re undergoing cancer treatment or have extremely sensitive skin, this option is for you.

✔ What it is:
A soothing, gentle treatment designed to restore comfort, hydration, and calmness to compromised skin.

💡 Best for: Clients undergoing or recovering from cancer treatment or anyone with reactive, delicate skin.

 

5. Fire and Ice Resurfacing Treatment – For Instant Glow-Ups

Known as the “Red Carpet Facial” for a good reason.

✔ What it is:
A clinically active treatment that resurfaces, smooths, and plumps the skin, giving you that celebrity glow in less than an hour.

💡 Best for: Fine lines, uneven texture, dull skin, or prepping for a big event.

 

6. Luxury Fire and Ice – For Glow + Relaxation

Want the benefits of Fire and Ice along with deep relaxation?

✔ What it is:
Everything in the Fire and Ice facial plus a 20-minute back massage to melt away tension and improve circulation.

💡 Best for: When you want to leave feeling like a whole new person—inside and out.

 

7. Foaming Enzyme Facial – For Gentle, Effective Exfoliation

If your skin needs a quick refresh but you’re worried about harsh treatments, this is your best option.

✔ What it is:
An effervescent treatment with active foaming agents that gently exfoliate but effectively clear the skin, leaving it glowing for days.

💡 Best for: All skin types, especially if you want a gentle, effective boost.

 

8. Luxury Foaming Enzyme – For Glow + Full-Body Bliss

Take the Foaming Enzyme facial and add a soothing 20-minute back massage. Because, why not?

What it is:
Glow for your skin and calm for your body – the perfect combo.

💡 Best for: Anyone needing gentle exfoliation plus relaxation in one appointment.
