This Deep-Freeze Facial Was the Secret to Mandy Moore's Golden Globes Glow

Joanna Vargas [1] is the woman behind many of radiant faces on the Golden Globes red carpet this year, and her new Supernova facial gave clients their healthiest glow yet. Stars including Dakota Johnson [2], Mandy Moore [3], Elisabeth Moss [4], and Debra Messing [5] looked to the beauty guru for a little preshow pampering.

Joanna's Supernova facial begins with an Aqua Peel with oxygenating properties and glycolic acid, to smooth out the skin. Next, a microcurrent [6] is used to contour and depuff the skin, and a mask is applied. Finally, clients undergo cryotherapy [7] (exposure to freezing temperatures) "which increases circulation, oxygenation, and lymphatic drainage while providing anti-inflammatory benefits," according to Joanna. Cryotherapy can be used on the whole body and involves standing in a -160ÂșC chamber for three minutes to aid whole body anti-inflammation. Cryotherapy facials use the same technique, but are focused on the face and neck to leave the skin plumped and smooth.

For celebrities who wanted head-to-toe glow, Joanna followed the facial with a Full Body Detox Peel, which consists of microdermabrasion [8] on the whole body, then a hydrating massage with coconut to infuse the skin with coconut oil (known for its anti-inflammatory properties), leaving the skin hydrated and glowing.

We're exhausted (and feeling radiant) just looking at the lineup. Here's a look at Mandy's treatment.
