As owner of an international chain of spa salons, skin expert, and Australia’s CHANEL facialist, Melanie Grant exudes a healthy enviable glow. The kind that stops you in your tracks and makes you want to, ‘have what she’s having’ – which of course you can, if you live near one of her eponymous spa locations. Yet the summer season when many of us travel and indulge in Hotel and Resort spa treatments – pampering experiences that offer an escape from the rigours of ‘real life’ – are all but a distant memory for the time being. We spoke with Melanie Grant and persuaded her to share the secrets she uses herself, to create a ‘Spa Space’ at home.
“I’m constantly inspired by interiors – detail is key. I love sourcing unique pieces and watching them transform a space.”
Raphael Navot (designer, Hotel National des Arts et Metiers Paris). Pierre Augustin Rose for indulgent furniture.
I love the CHANEL spa at The Ritz in Paris. The interiors are so incredibly decadent, the space transports you to another world!
It’s no secret that I love my bath – I find it the ultimate cure all. Nothing elevates you to ‘spa relaxation’ quite like a scented bath (or shower), add magnesium salts to soothe tired muscles, and a few drops of pure rose essential oil if you are feeling decadent.
Los Angeles, I’m desperate to visit my Studio on Melrose Place, and my wonderful team and clients.
