Celebrity aestheticians often hold their skin-care secrets close to their chest, but here, some of the best in the business share the products and devices they always have in their treatment rooms.

CLIENTS: Emma Stone, Kim Kardashian, Lily James, Sabrina Carpenter
Iván Pol, known to his million Instagram followers as @thebeautysandwich, has three key layers to his sandwich technique. The proprietary formulas of his products mimic the layers and elements of Pol’s signature treatments. He begins with his Amuse Bouche ($175), which he likens to “an IV drip for your face.”
The skin guru follows this with his SS01 Secret Sauce ($295), “which increases cellular turnover and circulation, and treats fine lines. It enhances the rosy look we aim for.” He seals the deal with the proprietary blend in his SS02 Snatching Sauce ($130), which is designed to shield and calm the skin, and acts like shapewear for the face.
During the facial, Pol also incorporates a proprietary combination of radio frequency and red light. “The radio-frequency technology penetrates deep into the skin, stimulating collagen production and tightening tissue,” he explains. “The red light therapy boosts circulation and reduces inflammation.”
Another highlight is Dr. Diamond’s Metacine Instafacial Plasma Bioactive Growth Factor Serum ($200). “A lot of my Hollywood clients use it, so I implement it in the treatment. Our products go hand-in-hand together.”
