KNESKO is a luxury skincare brand that is constantly on the forefront of innovation. When their products first came onto the spa scene, they were the first of their kind featuring revolutionary GEMCLINICAL® skincare technology that bridged science and spirituality, combining Eastern and Western medicine with ancient healing practices and modern technology.
The brand recently started offering a transformative guided meditation with every product purchase—one for each of their signature collections. The new offering deepens the brand’s mission to nurture mind, body, and spirit through an immersive ritual that seamlessly blends clinically backed skincare with crystal energy and the healing power of sound.
Beauty Boss: Lejla Cas, Founder of KNESKO
Each meditation is personally written and narrated by KNESKO founded and Reiki Master Lejla Cas, and every session is carefully infused with Reiki energy and scientifically tuned audio technologies using Alpha and Theta brainwave frequencies, binaural beats, and the 528 Hz “love frequency” to deliver profound relaxation, emotional balance, and a true mind-skin transformation.
“The KNESKO Meditation Experience is our way of guiding our clients toward a deeper emotional connection with themselves and our brand,” says Founder Lejla Cas. “Each meditation is a personal invitation to slow down, reconnect, and elevate a simple skincare ritual into a moment of healing and self-love.”
Each guided meditation can be accessed with a unique link included with every purchase and invites clients to pause, breathe, and receive the healing that KNESKO has infused in every product since day one.
KNESKO’s Gold Repair Body Care Collection nourishes skin while providing a powerful anti-gravity lift using active ingredients typically reserved for facial care.
In June 2024, KNESKO also debuted its first-ever body products—the Gold Repair Body Collection, which includes a Body Serum, Body Cream, Hand Mask, and Foot Mask. Cas shared the inspiration behind the collection, their benefits, her favorite application tips, and more.
What inspired the creation of the Gold Repair Body Collection?
I’ve always believed that the skin on our bodies deserves the same level of loving care and attention as the skin on our faces. Our original Gold Repair face masks truly transformed countless complexions and touched the hearts of our community—so extending this luxurious experience to the entire body felt like a natural evolution. By blending holistic self-care practices with science-backed ingredients, I wanted to craft a body collection that doesn’t just hydrate and firm, but also offers a deeply nurturing ritual of self-love and rejuvenation.
Tell us more about the products and their benefits.
The Gold Repair Body Collection embodies our ethos of merging efficacy with indulgence. Our Body Serum is a radiant daily treatment powered by a cutting-edge peptide complex to visibly firm and lift the skin, vitamin C to brighten and even tone, and lactic acid to gently resurface. The silky, cooling texture delivers immediate hydration and helps reverse the signs of aging over time. I’m beyond thrilled it’s already garnering awards and press accolades for innovation! Most recently, LA Magazine for Best in Beauty and ISPA 2024 Innovate award for best body product.
Following the Serum, the Body Cream seals in all that goodness while immersing the skin in a cashmere-soft finish. Its formula is enriched with peptides, ceramides, and shea butter, ensuring deep, long-lasting moisture and a truly luxurious feel. And since our hands and feet are often overlooked yet work so hard for us, I created Peptide Infused Collagen Masks for hands and feet—these are little self-care treasures that elevate your everyday ritual, head to toe.
Favorite application tips?
I love to apply each product right after a warm shower, when my skin is still slightly damp and receptive to active ingredients. First comes the Body Serum—applied in sweeping, upward motions to support circulation and absorption—then I follow with the Body Cream to lock in all the beneficial actives.
On Sunday nights, I indulge in a mini “hand and foot spa moment” by slipping on the Peptide-Infused Collagen Masks. I like to relax, breathe deeply, and let these formulas work their magic before bed. It’s such a beautiful way to reset for the week ahead.

What made you decide to expand into the body care category?
Extending the Gold Repair range to body care was a heartfelt decision. KNESKO is built on the principle of complete self-care—mind, body, and spirit. Over the years, as I watched people experience genuine transformations with our face masks, I knew it was time to bring that same combination of clinical results and mindful beauty to the rest of the body. Everyone deserves a daily moment of healing, from head to toe, and our new Body Collection delivers exactly that.
How do you recommend incorporating the Gold Repair Body Collection into one’s daily routine?
At KNESKO, we’re all about intention and mindfulness. My advice is to create a self-care ritual instead of treating it like a routine “task.” After stepping out of the shower, take a mindful moment to honor your body. As you smooth on the Body Serum and follow with the Body Cream, repeat our Gold Repair mantra: “I Honor My Intuition.”
This simple affirmation reminds you to check in with your body and honor its innate wisdom throughout the day. Turning your daily skincare practice into a mindful ritual can have such a profound ripple effect on your mindset and overall wellness.
How can these products enhance a spa’s retail offerings/treatment menu?
We crafted the Gold Repair Body Collection not only for at-home self-care but also to elevate the spa experience. Our professional spa partners have introduced Age-Defying Massages and deeply Hydrating Body Rituals using these products, creating an opulent yet spiritually uplifting journey for guests.
By incorporating the KNESKO ethos—where skincare meets soul care—spas can offer memorable treatments that encourage clients to continue their wellness journey at home.
It’s such a joy to see our premier spa partners, like the Four Seasons Los Angeles in Beverly Hills, The Ritz-Carlton Bacara in Santa Barbara, and The Bellagio Spa in Las Vegas, feature these transformative services on their menus.
KNESKO’s collagen masks for hands and feet revitalize by addressing signs of aging as well as visibly plumping, softening, and brightening skin.
What’s on the horizon for KNESKO next?
I feel like this is only the beginning for KNESKO. We’re expanding our global reach, introducing new spa collaborations, and gearing up for an exciting launch next year that I can’t wait to unveil. It’s exhilarating to keep innovating and exploring new ways to marry powerful skincare technology with intentional, uplifting rituals that inspire people to love and honor themselves.
Please share anything else you’d like us to know.
