Empress Secret: protocol for radiant beauty
The face
A two-phase ritual — physical and facial — inspired by imperial rituals to sculpt, smooth and illuminate the face.
Recommended tools
Double-delight sphere
Energy and release to prepare the ground through the body
with the Double-delight sphere nº410.
The secret of a visible lifting effect begins, paradoxically, in the back. For three minutes, massage all the musculature of the shoulder girdle with the Double-delight sphere in firm and regular movements.
Microcirculation awakens, energy flows, deep tension begins to release.
This is the principle of opposite sides, one of the great secrets of Dien Chan. By releasing the back and shoulder musculature, the face area relaxes naturally in mirror fashion, preparing the face to fully receive the lifting effects of the facial phase that follows.
A physical step that changes everything about the quality of the result.
Bamboo ova sticks
Drainage and flexibility to release cervical tension
with the Bamboo Ova bar.
Time for the second physical phase, the one that prepares the neck and jaw to reveal their full potential.
Start by tracing around one hundred enveloping circles around the nape of the neck.
This regular and soothing gesture gradually dissolves accumulated cervical tension and stimulates lymph nodes to activate natural drainage.
Then massage under the chin for one minute to open the lymphatic chains and tone the neck skin (this discreet but decisive gesture already contributes to the visible lifting effect that will emerge in the facial phase).
Finish by moving up along the jaw from the chin towards the ears to perfect the drainage and prepare the facial area with all the refinement the protocol requires.
Made of bamboo, light and perfectly balanced in hand, the Bamboo Ova bar glides with remarkable fluidity and makes each gesture as pleasant as effective.
Yin-yang roller
Time for the facial phase, the one where the face reveals all its radiance.
Begin by rolling the small yang sphere of genuine horn on the cheeks, from the ear towards the nose in regular back-and-forth movements.
Microcirculation awakens, tissues warm, skin comes alive.
Flip the tool. The yin roller of soft minitwigs takes over the eye contour and forehead to soothe, hydrate and let the skin breathe after the yang impulse.
Finish with soft circles around the eyebrows and temples, an almost meditative gesture that closes the facial phase with all the delicacy it deserves.
Yang then yin, stimulation then fulfilment. The skin emerges bouncy, luminous and deeply relaxed.
Drainage and light to enhance the face with the Yin-yang roller.

Additional tips
Always begin with the physical phase with the client seated to relax the neck and shoulders before the facial treatment.
Use a light massage oil scented with rose or jasmine to enrich the sensory experience.
For pregnant clients, skip steps 4, 5 and 6 of the facial phase.
Propose this treatment as a monthly programme for visible and lasting lifting effect.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between this treatment and a classic facial treatment?
The Empress Secret is a bi-directional treatment: each step acts simultaneously on a physical anatomical area and on its reflex projection on the face. This allows for much deeper results than a classic facial treatment, as the brain receives two coherent signals that mutually strengthen the self-regulation process.
How often should this protocol be practised?
This treatment is ideally offered once a week in the salon for regular maintenance. Clients can complement it with a simplified daily self-care using the Yin-yang roller nº206 on the face contour and cheeks. Lifting and firming results are visible from the 3rd monthly session.
