In-the-know Silicon Valley spa savants are already familiar with Sense Spa, the tranquil, on-premise refuge of luxury hotel Rosewood Sand Hill. In addition to the 5-star property’s sweeping views of the surrounding Santa Cruz Mountains, olive tree-lined outdoor swimming pool (that happens to be heated year-round) and 121 plush guest rooms and suites, there’s now an even greater reason to visit this Northern California retreat: the launch of a masterfully curated facial menu, including a 2 hour anti-aging face & body treatment, from European medical-grade skincare leader QMS Medicosmetics. An exclusive high-tech hideaway boasting a new series of high-performance skincare treatments? Consider us intrigued.
The collaboration between Rosewood Sand Hill and QMS further establishes the German brand’s growing presence in U.S. luxury spas, and for good reason. The pioneering skincare brand believes in science, not miracles, firmly rooted in clinically proven results overseen by a panel of experts ranging from scientists to pharmaceutical pros to QMS Founder & Aesthetic Surgeon, Dr. Erich Schulte. Specializing in anti-aging collagen innovation, QMS skincare routines are underscored by powerful, 97% skin-identical collagens – the critical building blocks your skin needs in order to maintain, and restore, elasticity and firmness. Combined with the skin-smoothing sorcery of hyaluronic acid, it’s no wonder QMS has not only developed a cult following in Europe, but is already generating serious buzz Stateside. In addition to Rosewood Sand Hill, QMS skincare treatments can be found at the Four Seasons Philadelphia, Four Seasons Fort Lauderdale and Teton Mountain Lodge & Spa. Glenn Close, Renée Zellweger and Hollywood makeup artist Donald Mowat are all fans of the brand’s science-backed product line.
