A short interview with Melanie Grant from ELLE's US edition, dated January 2021. The writer tried one of her treatments, then met her in Los Angeles at a Chanel event for Margot Robbie and Gabrielle Chanel Essence, and asked about her own routine, including the three-step cleanse she does at night.
The piece describes her signature treatment, an hour and a half of microdermabrasion, ultrasound and light therapy combined with very firm massage. It notes the more advanced machines she uses in her Melbourne and Sydney salons, and says she once worked in the offices of plastic surgeons in Australia. Word of her treatments spread at Paris fashion week, and at the time of writing she had four international studios, more than 55,000 Instagram followers and was looking for a New York location. The writer presents her as one of Chanel's Australian hires.
The part of the Q&A shown here covers her routine on planes. She cleanses with micellar water as she boards, then applies an antioxidant serum against free radicals. Next is Chanel Huile de Jasmin, which she puts on her face, body, feet and hair. “Otherwise I arrive like a little crisp,” she says. She also massages in a cream mask during the flight, wears Chanel eye patches and mists often.
