Beauty & Kep: Sam Taroth tries Kep West's fruity facial
At the Kep West Wellness Center, the facial starts in the kitchen rather than a jar. Mango for vitamin C, pressed cucumber for the tonic, yogurt, a little lavender. Sam Taroth has already tried yoga and massage here. This time she hands her face to Mao Sophear, the center's Senior Spa Therapist.
Outside, the Kep heat is building. The treatment room stays cool. Light comes through the tall wooden louvres in thin stripes, with the green of the garden behind them.
Lana Yang does the introductions. She runs the wellness center and explains the treatment before it begins.
“Today we are introducing Sam to our fruity facial,” she says. Then: “A vitamin facial.”
Sam stands between Lana and Sophear, her hands folded, clearly curious. She knows Sophear already. Sophear gave her a massage on an earlier visit.
