For this week’s #WeeklyWellness2021 experience, I treated myself to a luxe at-home facial thanks to The Beauty Cloud.  I love facials, but gathering up all the different products and tools needed for an at-home job can be a cumbersome chore.

Week 25 of Weekly Wellness: Permanent Brows - A Touch-Up

The Beauty Cloud has everything you need from step-by-step, numbered products, applicators, and detailed instructions to set you up for glowing success. No detail is  left out of this at-home spa experience; in addition to facial necessities, boxes also contain ambiance essentials like candles and chocolate.

What it is:

Developed by salon owner and beauty industry veteran Shelly Malizola, The Beauty Cloud was launched last year in a time where spa/esthetician access was largely unavailable. With a vision of being a “digital fountain of youth,” The Beauty Cloud focuses on education, proven products, and bringing the spa to you. Various beauty boxes can be purchased through their site along with quarterly or annual memberships and a selection of skin care products including The Beauty Cloud’s own line.

The site also offers a skin care quiz to help determine the right pick for customers, as well as virtual consultations with highly-trained Beauty Trainers to answer any questions and assist in the process. Special occasions and parties can also be booked including special pricing and digital assistance for a Beauty Trainer.

My experience:

I scored a Shiny and Bright Beauty Cloud Box and saved it to use for the perfect night in. After a busy week, it was an easy way to practice self-care that didn’t require any extra brain power or time. The contents and instructions were beautifully packaged in quality, reusable containers and numbered for extra ease.

Step 1 was the Amandola Milk Cleanser by Circadia by Dr. Pugliese followed by a leave-on Cocoa Enzyme that smelled good enough to eat. Next, I used the provided fan brush to apply Sparkling Bubbly Mask, an oxygenating antioxidant blend that bubbled upon application.

After about 10 minutes, I rinsed off the mask and applied a hydrating moisturizer on my face and neck, and the Luxurious Body Soufflé on my body. The entire facial was enjoyed by candlelight thanks to the Sparkling Evergreen Mini Candle included in the kit and finished off with a chocolate truffle!

There was enough product to enjoy 2+ facials, so I have continued use after the initial run.  My skin felt refreshed for days on end and I really enjoyed the entire experience. The Beauty Cloud would make a great gift for a friend in need of a pick me up, an easy regular facial option or a fun spa party event.
