Winter skin is not about adding more products, it is about protecting the barrier and using each step well.
Cold air, indoor heating and hard Brussels water slowly dehydrate the surface of the skin, this routine is here to rebalance that.
1. Gentle cleansing with massage movements, so you remove the day, micro exfoliate and still keep the barrier intact.
2. Treatment mist, used after cleansing to correct the effects of hard water, it adds surface hydration with a light formula that prepares the skin for the rest of the routine.
3. Glycolic in winter, this is the safe season to use it correctly, it is great for smoother texture, anti ageing work and pigment spots.
4. Barrier cream, this is the real winter ally, it helps to shield the skin from cold, wind and dryness, but it needs to be used correctly, I will explain this in a separate video.
5. Conditioner for the hair, used before shampooing and after, to keep fragile cuticles from drying out further and to reduce frizz.
If your skin feels tight, itchy or looks dull, starting with these small corrections usually makes a visible difference within a few weeks.

Winter doesn’t “damage” skin.
It changes the conditions your skin has to work in.
Dry heated air.
Temperature contrast.
Hot water.
Less movement.
More screen time.
Small habits, repeated daily.
When the skin barrier struggles, everything feels tighter, duller, more reactive.
This isn’t a failure of your skin.
It’s a sign it needs support, not aggression.
Winter skin asks for: less stripping, more protection, and a little patience.
At Alchimie, we work with the skin barrier first.
Because when it functions well, everything else follows.

“When skill meets intuition, even niche techniques become crowd favorites.”
Michaela blends Gestalt-inspired massage with flowing Thai stretches, a style that’s traditionally quite niche. But in her hands, it’s become one of our most requested experiences.
Her approach is intuitive, deeply relaxing, and beautifully technical.
She has a way of helping you release not just tension, but that disconnection from your body.
And now, she’s teaching it.
In our Massage Workshops, Michaela guides you to develop a calm, confident touch.

Skin suddenly sagging? Dull? Low energy for no reason?
It’s not just age, it’s your hormones.
As we hit our 40s, many of us wake up one day and feel… off. Our skin feels older. We’re more tired. Nothing seems to work the same.
But this isn’t inevitable, and it’s absolutely fixable.
Join us for a transformational workshop with Marieke Steen, Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner & Restorative Wellness Expert.
She’ll help you uncover what’s really behind the changes, from hormone shifts and nervous system dysregulation to nutrient imbalances, and what to do about it.
You’ll learn how to:
• Decode the symptoms your body’s been whispering
• Support your hormones naturally
• Reclaim your glow, energy, and strength
Because better aging isn’t about giving up, it’s about getting smarter. And more resilient.

18:30 – 20:00

Only 3 spots left! This Wednesday at 16h!
Our Alchimie team had an absolute blast discovering our color palettes during the Color Analysis Workshop, and we highly recommend it.
Erika finally unlocked the colors that highlight her features best.
Kevin? Chic and baronesque in salmon (who knew!).
Soumaya? Turns out deep tones flatter her way more than she thought.
And Lory recently received a sweater, the exact tone from her palette, and we were all shocked at how perfect it looked.
As for Anda… she’s slowly trying to be more jolly and less “all-black-everything” (not easy 😅).
So yes, it’s fun, it’s revealing, and it’s honestly kind of addictive once you see the difference the right colors can make.
You’ll go home with your own personalized color book
Plus: pro photos in your most flattering tones
Skincare & style tips
Light snacks, warm drinks & Alchimie vibes included
🎟️ Only 3 spots left, book via link in bio.
Trust us: you’ll never look at your wardrobe the same way again.

Color changed more than I expected…
I’ve always worn a lot of black, not because it feels “safe,” but because many of the clothes I love, especially the more edgy, minimalist styles, rarely come in bright or warm tones. Or maybe… I just never really looked for them.
But during our last Colour Analysis Workshop at Alchimie, I found out that terracotta and warm tones actually suit my skin so much better than I imagined.
I went shopping right after. And funny enough, in one of my recent videos, I’m wearing this new tone, and I didn’t need to add a filter.
My skin looked naturally smoother and brighter. Just from wearing the right colour.
This workshop is such an eye-opener. It’s not about changing your identity, it’s about discovering how colour can support your skin, energy, and presence with very minimal effort.
You’ll walk away with your seasonal colour palette, and even get some beautiful portraits taken during the session.
If you’re curious, or just want to explore something new for yourself! I highly recommend it 💛

Here at Alchimie we aim to give you the best possible holistic treatment, supporting your ‘feel-good’ and beauty goals step by step. We believe that beauty comes from within. Thanks to the (magical) power of heavenly composed rituals and our selection of natural products, we make it surface.
We look beyond marketing strategies. We don’t use branded protocols. Our skin care treatments start with you. The products that you use, skin care rituals that you are doing, your daily routine, your work and leisure environment, the water and the air of your city. We take all of this into consideration. We build an individualized treatment plan and help you all along the way. We care about the ingredients in our products and not their commercial name; we analyse your skin care needs and decide the best course of action for you as a unique individual with a unique skin type.
We take the time to discover what you need: the massage technique, the type of oil, the essential oils that are being infused in the room, the hot or cold teas that help you to reach the perfect balance, music and lights… the entire ritual is based on the attention to details.
