JANE'S ADDICTION

Alexandra Soveral Angel Balm

This London facialist is known for her radiance-boosting massages. It makes sense, then, that her geranium-oil cleanser is meant to be applied with invigorating circular movements. My favorite part of her at-home routine: draping a steamy-hot washcloth over my face and letting the unctuous potion melt away—it really feels like a facial.
