Boncilla

I was at the barbershop today having a haircut. I was right beside the price list and saw that they offered a Boncilla. I've always been curious what a Boncilla was, so I asked the barber. He said that it was some sort of facial with a mask that clears black heads and impurities. Out of curiousity and a little vanity, I decided to try it.

After the haircut, he proceeded with giving me the Boncilla treatment. Now as I was on the receiving end of everything, I can only account for what I thought he was doing. I never actually saw anything. He started with applying some sort of gel while massaging my whole face with it. Then he used what felt like a small metal stick to clear some white heads near my nose. Then he shaved my face. It didn't feel like he used a razor. I don't know what he used. After that, he applied some thick sort of cream which felt and smelled like honey. He cleaned it off then applied a sort of mask. This mask is what may be the actual Boncilla. I never bothered to ask. He let it dry until it an be peeled off. The peeled mask left a fresh feeling on my face. It felt like my face is now able to breathe after years of being trapped. Much like the first time I tried St. Ives Apricot Scrub. Then he cleaned my face again with a sort of astringent.

Around 20 minutes after my haircut, everything was finished. I looked in the mirror and my skin looked radiant. It felt clean. I'm going to need to have a Boncilla regularly.
