Premium hotel and spa destination Halekulani in Honolulu, Hawaii, has launched a poolside facemask service for its guests, powered by luxury skincare and spa brand Knesko.

While guests lounge by the pool, a Knesko cart is wheeled around containing collagen facemasks and eyemasks kept on ice to offer a refreshing pick-me-up.

The masks are made with crushed gemstones, all Reiki charged and each formulated for a different skincare need Diamond for brightening, NanoGold for firming and Amethyst for nourishing.

Guests can choose their favourite mask, sign a voucher, and the masks will automatically be charged to their room, with prices ranging from US$25 (€23, £19) for an eye mask to US$55 (€50, £43) for a facemask (excluding tax).

Halekulani's director of spa and wellness, Kamala Nayeli, explained: “The main objective for launching the cart is to enhance the guest’s poolside experience. This is one of many amenities and activities we plan to introduce this year – each one adds value to their stay with us.

“These iced facemasks not only feel amazing while guests are seated in the heat but also boost collagen levels while hydrating, detoxing and balancing the skin.”

Knesko says each of the masks should be worn for 10-40 minutes, and the cart is available daily from 6:30 am to sunset during pool hours.

Knesko has already launched the cart at other luxury properties in the US including the Bellagio in Las Vegas, Montage Palmetto Bluff in South Carolina and Four Seasons Maui in Hawaii.
