At Stillwater Spa at Hyatt Regency Lake Tahoe Resort, Spa & Casino (Incline Village, NV), the Alpine Pure ($140, 50 minutes; $195, 80 minutes) facial works to decongest clogged pores, according to spa director Julia Chang.
After extractions and masks containing ingredients like clay, sage, salicylic acid, and willow, the treatment ends with an application of a mattifying serum with avocado oil.
"Many of our clients who complain of congested or oily skin and breakouts are suffering as much from dehydration as from a predisposition to oily skin," says Chang, who believes the resort's environment and weather conditions may be to blame.
