Of course, each person has their own features and needs. What works for you cannot work on someone else. Therefore, it is important that every person seeks a treatment that adapts to their specific needs and that professionals know how to work out what the best treatment is for each specific client.

What is yours?

My perfect treatment contains active ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, vitamin C and retinol to boast a brighter, firmer, and softer skin.

You left Madrid to come and live in Ibiza 24 years ago. What brought you here?

The climate and the quality of life. Ibiza has a warm and very pleasant climate during the whole year, with over 300 days of sun. Also, the island has a very relaxed and quiet vibe, and it is exactly what I was looking for: a healthier lifestyle. The first time I set foot on the island I fell in love with its natural beauty and its landscapes with its crystal water beaches, green rolling mountains and hidden corners with breathtaking views to the sea.

Madrid had become too suffocating for me to live and coming to Ibiza was the best decision ever.

Would you recommend our readers to visit Ibiza and Formentera?

Of course. Both islands offer a unique experience that combine beautiful beaches, stunning natural landscapes, rich local culture, lively nightlife, and a wide range of activities for all ages and tastes. Besides, Ibiza and Formentera have a wide variety of places to stay, from luxury hotels to more affordable lodgings and boasts a varied local cuisine that includes fresh seafood and traditional dishes.

If people prefer the nightlife, I really recommend Ibiza but for a quieter and less crowded holidays it is better to visit Formentera.

What is your favorite spot?

One of my favorite spots on the island is Platges de Comte. The panoramic views to the sea and the nearby isles are amazing. When you are there, you feel like you are in a magical place, surrounded by stunning natural beauty. The crystal waters and white sands invite you to relax and enjoy the sun and the sea, while the bars and restaurants offer delicious options for food and drinks to complete the experience. It is a place you must visit if you come to Ibiza.

And in Formentera, Illetes beach or the lighthouse of La Mola with its beautiful views to the sparkling sea from its cliff.
