My skin was smoother than ever after having a brand-new facial treatment at a luxury Sussex spa

And not only that, my skin felt silky smooth and looked healthier than it had done in ages.

It was thanks to the OSKIA Revitalising Super C Facial, which launched last month as part of the treatment menu at the Ashdown Park Hotel Country Club and Forest Spa.

It was part of the venue’s new partnership with the British-based OSKIA and Ishga brands – and I was invited along to try one of the new offerings last week.

It was a joy to arrive at the beautiful forest mansion house on a stunning sunny morning.

Treatments take place just up from the main hotel in the country club, which also houses the pool area and a brasserie restaurant.

I was given a robe and flip flops on checking in, meaning I could be completely comfortable for my treatment.

The Super C Facial I chose was billed as being an ultra-hydrating, nutrient-rich facial delivering instant lifting and anti-ageing benefits.

And that’s exactly what I got – skin that felt completely hydrated, refreshed and was visibly brighter and tighter.

The experience itself was deeply relaxing. My therapist Sharlene used a range of OSKIA’s products to best suit my combination skin.

From the perfect cleanser, to the floral water toner, to the renaissance mask, super-C capsules, isotonic hydra-serum and nutri-active day cream – every product felt luxurious, smelled great and helped restore the glow to my face.

And unlike most facials I’ve had before, Sharlene spent more time massaging them into my face and using the pressure points to fully work them into my skin.

She explained she did this because the products contain active ingredients which work best when really worked into your face.

OSKIA describes this by saying it ‘develops advanced, targeted formulas designed to improve skin health from within’.

Their products often contain up to 40 active ingredients, including vitamins, minerals, proteins, and omegas.

Some of their key ingredients include MSM, various peptides, and other bioavailable nutrients, like the natural compound from chamomile known for its soothing properties.

Days later my skin still feels super soft and looks nice and dewy. I’m really happy with the results.

Other treatments available include OSKIA Thermal Harmony – exclusive to Elite Hotels, this indulgent experience includes a warm basalt stone foot ritual, detoxifying peel-off mask, rose-scented oil massage and scalp massage.

And the ISHGA Aromatherapy Body Massage – a personalised full-body massage designed to relax and rebalance.
