What Are Facial Suites? Know All About Met Gala’s Luxury Skin Treatments
This is how top celebs attending the Met Gala get their skin prepped for the red carpet!
Skincare might not be the main Met Gala attraction like fashion, but it’s definitely not something that can not be overlooked. Skincare and beauty brands from all around the world fly into New York and turn luxury hotel suites into high-end beauty clinics. High-end hotels like The Carlyle and The Mark turn into glam headquarters, where celebrities rush in for their last-minute skin fix and treatments before hitting the carpet.

For many skincare brands, facial suites are promotional strategies. Luxury names like Dior create exclusive suites for their sponsored guests. Smaller brands like Monastery offer free facials in hopes of landing that perfect red carpet shot or Instagram mention.
These treatments are intense. We’re talking about microcurrents, fascial massages, oxygen therapy, and $6,000 laser tools that lift and firm the skin in record time. The best time slot to get these done is Monday morning, just before the red carpet. Some facialists charge a full rate, others offer freebies for the chance to go viral.
These facial suites also allow a moment of peace and calm amidst all the chaos to the celebrities with their calming treatments. And while they often stay behind the scenes, these skincare pros are slowly becoming stars in their own right with brand deals, product lines, and Met Gala regular status.
