To complement its customisable skincare range, My Blend has developed the My Skin Diag skin analysis procedure. The two-step 20-minute analysis is part of a treatment, which costs E250 (US$321, £215) and lasts 90 minutes. It starts with questions on lifestyle then a SkinLab My Skin Diag machine takes photographs of the skin and measures it with skin probes. The aim is to add credibility and show scientifically what the needs of the client's skin are. The diagnosis determines which My Blend facial treatment is suitable and, with therapist input, My Blend products can also be customised accordingly. My Blend was developed over five years by Dr Olivier Courtin, son of Clarins founder Jacques Courtin. The range features eight anti-ageing Essential Formula day and night creams; seven Boosters, concentrates of active ingredients; and seven cleansers and eye creams. In total, there are more than 350 possible combinations. Customers can't buy My Blend products without having a diagnosis beforehand, either through a questionnaire on My-Blend.com, or a My Skin Diag diagnosis. The analysis and Spa My Blend by Clarins treatments are currently available at Royal Monceau-Raffles, Paris; Ritz Carlton, Toronto and Majestic Barrière, Cannes. Spa-kit.net keywords: My Blend
