The Sound Effect

Finding a Perfect Musical Accompaniment for the RATIONALE Treatment Experience

What was it that made your last facial so memorable?

Was it the afterglow? The sharper features and brighter eyes?

That special sort of magic that comes from a combination of rhythmic massage, a heated bed, the warming glow of an LED lamp, and the friendly reassurance from your therapist: “don’t worry, it’s a good thing if you fall asleep”?

These are just some of the things that spring to mind when we think about those magical, counting-down-the-days moments in our calendar.

In the serene space of the treatment room, every sensory aspect has been carefully considered and fine-tuned to gently comfort the senses: the darkened room to relax the eyes, the opening inhalations using aromatic formulations, the power of touch—expertly dispensed from the hands of our therapists…

But there’s a new sensory element to our treatment offering which we’ve spent many months researching, contemplating, trialing and refining: sound.

A passion project of Founder Richard Parker for many years, it has long been Parker’s desire to curate a playlist that matched the experiential nature of our treatments. After many hours of research—a real labour of love for classically trained Parker—he discovered the work of British-German composer, Max Richter.

#5 The Serum

A potent revival of absolute clarity.

This sophisticated skin-refining serum recalibrates skin’s pH balance for a more even, smoother appearance. As skin rejuvenation is optimised and irritation calmed, skin looks and feels immediately renewed, resurfaced and deeply luminous.

The Promise

Skin tone and texture are refined, and clarity is restored.

Recalibrates skin pH to a youthful acidic level.

Clarifies skin to promote a more even appearance.

Hydration levels are augmented to visibly smooth fine lines.

Skin looks and feels softer and more radiant.

The Ritual

The Research

The pH of the skin’s outermost layer, the Stratum Corneum, is vital to complexion health, vitality and beauty.

The ideal state of the Stratum Corneum is acidic, as these conditions maintain the upregulation of enzymes critical to the synthesis of collagen and elastin (skin connective tissues that provide skin structure and firmness), as well as helping to prevent collagen breakdown, sensitivity, breakouts and infection.

Throughout life, skin becomes more alkaline as a result of intrinsic ageing and environmental damage. This leads to an upregulation of enzymes that break down skin connective tissues, leading to premature ageing, wrinkles and sagging.

Recalibrating and maintaining the acidic pH of skin is possible via a nightly regime of topically applied hydroxy acids which help to reverse the effects of facial ageing and environmental damage.

#5 The Milk Concentrate

Profound clarity and radiance.

A gently nourishing milk concentrate that resets skin’s pH to a healthy balance while promoting skin calmness. This formulation promotes skin refinement to fortify barrier function, amplifying moisture levels and enhancing skin resilience to radiant effect.

The Promise

Gently recalibrates skin pH to enhance ongoing clarity.

Supports skin resilience.

Skin feels hydrated, softer and more supple.

A more radiant tone and texture is revealed.

The Ritual

Smooth gently over face, neck, décolletage and backs of hands each evening.

The Research

A vibrant, radiant complexion is intimately connected to the pH of the skin’s outermost layer, the Stratum Corneum.

Sensitivity, barrier breakdown, pigmentation and premature ageing are all consequences of environmental damage. These occur as a result of excessive solar exposure, causing the skin’s pH to shift from a healthy acidic state to alkaline, triggering the upregulation of enzymes that break down connective tissue and erode protective barrier structures.

Signalling peptides in human skin direct all metabolic processes, including desquamation (cell turnover), cellular differentiation (cellular function), and hydration. Short-chain protein sequences and ceramides are critical in these intercellular communication processes.
