I Went to Machine Gun Kelly's Facialist — Here's What Happened

Spoiler alert: It was every bit as luxurious as you'd expect

The High Frequency/Microcurrent Machines

From there, the expert used a high frequency device (that kind of looked like a dildo, TBH) to oxygenate my pores and kill bacteria, post-extractions. This next part (a big hit with her celeb clientele) is the microcurrent machine. "It's basically a workout for your face, it stimulates your muscles with current technology for immediately lifted skin," she said. It adds 15 to 30 minutes to the clock and is a great add-on for right before red carpets or big events.

The Jelly Mask

After the tightening comes an algae-based jelly mask. If you're like me, you're thinking this is an excellent time to capture some Instagram content (true), but the colorful, gooey mask also has a purpose. It comes in a variety of shades that address different concerns, but for me Celeste went with a baby pink one for inflammation.

The LED Light Treatment

15 minutes later she peeled that puppy right off, spread some Is Clinical Active Serum, $138, over my skin and put me under a blue LED light for 15 minutes of acne-fighting therapy. The last step was a peptide eye cream, which she ever-so-softly massaged in with a tiny wand she pulled out of her handy mini fridge. "Once that's done I always make sure my clients are moisturized with an SPF before they head back outside," noted the pro.

The Goodie Bag

After all that, she sent me packing with a curated at-home skin care regimen, something she routinely does for A-list clients. "Whatever we do in the treatment room is great, but it's really about what you do consistently at home that's going to make a difference." Lengthy? Yes. Thorough? You betcha. But anyone that's complaining about a luxurious 90-minute Machine Gun Kelly-approved self-care ritual is not anyone I want to chill with. You feel me?
