Le Bon Marché Rive Gauche opens a new space dedicated to well-being and beauty

Le Bon Marché is opening"L'Institut du Bon Marché Rive Gauche" entirely dedicated to well-being, to be discovered on Monday, September 5, 2022. A 100m2 space to relax and pamper yourself in a luxurious setting with a refined aesthetic, in the heart of the oldest department store. Flooded with natural light, the Institute takes on the curves of a Parisian apartment, and is designed as an extension of the Salons Particuliers, hosting private styling appointments.

The crème de la crème of skincare treatments and protocols is provided. Highly specialized and personalized services, expert advice, and cutting-edge technologies, for tailor-made beauty and well-being experiences. As soon as you enter the wellness area, a feeling of comfort and serenity emanates from the elegant and cosy design of the reception area. A voluptuous and couture room, where the furniture is all curves in soft and warm colors.

Six cabins ranging from 13 to 20 m2 are nestled in the Institut du Bon Marché Rive Gauche. Each wellness cocoon has a refined color identity (blush pink, water green, topaz blue ...), mixed with light oak, creating an intimate and soothing atmosphere. Equipped with heated beds and adjustable lighting, the space houses :
- three multi-brand cabins where exceptional skincare brands alternate according to a constantly changing schedule (check it out here), with an exclusive treatment menu designed for Le Bon Marché Rive Gauche
- three permanent booths for Dior, Guerlain and Biologique Recherche, in which the most prestigious protocols are offered

In addition, three of them have a shower.

I tested the Dior micro peeling treatment...

This technique aims to exfoliate the skin and restore its radiance. The experience begins with a diagnosis of your skin quality (sensitive, oily, combination), then the beautician removes makeup with Dior lotions. Then comes the time for the micro peeling, and more precisely the Micro-Abrasion with Sapphire Crystals, a technique emblematic of Dior's beauty expertise. The vibrating and oscillating head of the device, covered with fine sapphire particles, exfoliates the skin and stimulates cell regeneration.

In addition to the thirty minutes of absolute relaxation, from this first session I noticed the undeniable radiance of my face, the pores tightened and the features smoothed. La Maison promises a healthy glow beyond the institute treatment, as the skin becomes more receptive to the application of treatments, it becomes firmer and fine lines are as if erased. To be seen later, but as soon as I left the Dior cabin I was already convinced... Micro peeling treatment 30min 95€.
