French skincare brand L’Occitane has opened its first Petit Spa in One Utama Shopping Mall in Malaysia.
Spanning a cosy 700sq ft (65sq m), the Petit Spa has a reception lounge with a private consultation area, as well as three private facial cabins. The spa incorporates L’Occitane’s signature back-to-nature concept, combining natural materials with warm tones of beige to create a relaxing environment.
Prior to facial treatments, guests receive a Welcome Ritual relaxing footbath, and then choose between a range of anti-ageing facials, drainage facials and face enhancers.
