Hello everybody!
I've been crazy busy the past few weeks that i only got the chance to sit down and share this Heart of the Ocean Facial Experience now. So on August 24th, i was one of the lucky ladies who were invited to an exclusive experience to try out Thalgo Indonesia's signature facial.

Have you ever heard about Thalgo before? I was not very familiar with the brand yet so i was very glad for this experience, not only i get to try out their wonderful facial (which i LOVE), i also got to learn about them more.
So Thalgo is actually been around for quite sometime, it was founded in 1964 by pharmacist, André Bouclet. What started as an algae-based products for the medical field, the company has grown and expand expotentially to become the leading Marine Cosmetology brand that is now a world leader in Marine Spa. They both supplies products for spas that can only be used and performed by professionals and also over the counter premium products. In Indonesia, their sole distributor is PT Auraluxe Indonesia.
In Surabaya, Thalgo counter can be found in Sogo Pakuwon Mall and there are also a few spas in Surabaya that uses Thalgo's products in their treatments.

| Before we started the treatment, a spokesperson from Thalgo give me an introduction to Thalgo and their products. Thalgo believes that the ocean is the source of beauty and health without worry. All of their products are free parabens, mineral oil, GMO and Propylene Glycol, without animal testing and since all the ingredients are derived from the sea, they are totally HALAL |

I was so relaxed i almost fell asleep (this is very rare, only the best treatments can make me feel this way). Not only that, but my insomnia was gone after this and i can fall asleep very easily! |
