    Luxury Swiss skincare brand Valmont has launched three skin-sorting signature rituals into Harrods' Urban Retreat

    With award season well under-way, we're coming over all green here on the Marie Claire beauty desk with a serious case of celeb skin-envy.

    Yes, we know they didn't wake up like that. And no, we don't pressume that their daily regime is minimal. But compare, we will, and rest we shan't 'til we've busted their red-carpet secret.

    Which, actually, we might just have done. Because any facial that keeps our stressed-out skin plumped and glowy for two days on the trot is a winner in our books. Enter Valmont.

    If you're yet to be acquainted, Valmont is the latest uber luxe Swiss export to hit our shores. And they've just launched three facial rituals into the suitably plush Harrods' Urban Retreat.

    The facial is - naturally - super swish. Think glacial spring water, bespoke massage techniques, and a pure (we know this because it's chilly and it tingled) collagen mask. But, refreshingly, it's also results-driven. Of course, the efficacy is all but proven by the brand's Swiss heritage alone. But the real proof is in the pudding. Your face. Post-treatment. It's plump in all the right ways.

    The three rituals available are Hydration, Energy, and Anti-wrinkle (each £140 for 60minutes), and they're available for one week per month until November. Visit www.urbanretreat.co.uk to book.
