The serene studio of Anouk Biard has become a landing place for in-the-know Parisians who seek out the holistic facialist’s transformative touch.
may remain in decidedly high spirits, but our complexions tell a different story: Following the nearly monthlong marathon of runway shows, parties , and press appointments—on both sides of the Atlantic, no less—even the most disciplined self-care devotees among us are in need of a helping hand. Enter Anouk Biard, whose bespoke facial massages—rooted in the ancient Japanese art of kobido—balance bodies and minds alike, as I soon find out.
When I arrive at the holistic practitioner’s 9th arrondissement studio on a recent afternoon, there’s nary a machine in sight; instead, a handful of time-honored treasures—an Art Deco vitrine; a Josef Hoffmann chair; and carved, wooden lights from the 1940s—accent the serene setting, which has become a landing place for in-the-know Parisians who seek out her singular holistic treatment.
“The approach is always different,” Biard stresses, noting that she will emphasize light, rapid strokes to energize the complexion or deep, slow movements to decrease bloating —but the effect is invariably transformative. Upon glancing in the studio’s vintage, bow-adorned mirror just 60 minutes after I collapsed onto her table, my eyes are bright; my face is lifted—sculpted, even; and despite the fact that I’ve been battling a particularly bad bout of jet lag, I feel rested.
