Nomad Beauty & Skin Care — Korean Skin Care for KLCC
For skin that spends fifty hours a week in air conditioning. A quiet room on Jalan Cheras, close enough to the city centre to reach in a lunch hour if the day allows it.
- Built for office-dry skin
- Sessions that fit a working day
How do I get to NOMAD from KLCC?
By rail it is one change. Take the LRT Kelana Jaya Line from KLCC toward the city centre, change onto the Ampang Line — Masjid Jamek is the usual interchange — and stay on to Maluri. The station there opens onto Jalan Cheras, which is the road the studio is on, at number 290 in Maluri.
By car it is a short hop east across Jalan Tun Razak and down toward Cheras, which is genuinely quick outside peak hours and genuinely slow inside them. If you work in one of the towers, the useful thing to know is that a midday appointment is usually faster in both directions than anything after five — and the studio is quiet at that hour, which is rather the point.
FROM KLCC
Getting to the studio from KLCC
- 01
By rail, with one change
Kelana Jaya Line from KLCC, change onto the Ampang Line at Masjid Jamek, then on to Maluri. Simple enough to do in work clothes without arriving flustered.
- Maluri is also on the MRT Kajang Line if you are coming from elsewhere first
- 02
Or straight across by car
East across Jalan Tun Razak and down toward Cheras. Quick at midday, considerably less so at six — which is the argument for a lunchtime slot.
- 03
Tell us your window
If you have ninety minutes and not two hours, say so when you book. We will choose a session that finishes properly inside your window rather than rushing the end of a longer one.
- A rushed finish is the part of a session worth protecting most
- 04
Parking
Street parking on the roads around the studio, with the mall car parks at the Maluri interchange as the dependable alternative. Message us before you set off if you would rather know in advance.
- 05
Back to the office
If you are going straight back to a desk or a meeting, tell us. It rules some sessions out and moves others up the list — there is no point choosing something that leaves you flushed before a two o'clock call.

Why does office air make such a difference to skin?
Because air conditioning takes moisture out of the air, and skin sitting in it for eight or nine hours a day loses water steadily without ever feeling dry in the way a cold climate makes it feel dry. The result is the pattern we see most often in guests from the towers: skin that reads as oily by mid-afternoon and yet feels tight, with make-up sitting badly over it. The instinct is to reach for something stronger and more mattifying, which almost always makes the following week worse.
The Korean answer is layered hydration rather than heavier cream, which is why the Hydration Protocol and the Glass Skin Ritual are the two sessions KLCC guests book most. Alongside that, the scalp and shoulder session earns its place for anyone who spends the day at a screen. A device session with no recovery time is the third common choice, usually the day before something that matters.
BEFORE YOU BOOK
Questions from guests near KLCC
The shorter sessions can, provided you tell us the window when you book so we choose accordingly. What we will not do is compress a ninety-minute session into an hour — the unhurried finish is the part that makes it work, and cutting it is the first thing that spoils a session.
One change on the LRT: Kelana Jaya Line from KLCC, across to the Ampang Line at Masjid Jamek, then on to Maluri. Maluri also sits on the MRT Kajang Line, so there is more than one way in.
Usually dehydration rather than oiliness, and it is the most common pattern we see in office workers. Air conditioning pulls water out steadily all day. The answer is layered hydration, not a stronger mattifying product — which tends to make the next week worse rather than better.
After a device session or a massage, yes. After anything with manual work or resurfacing, you may have a flush for a few hours — so tell us what is in your afternoon and we will choose accordingly rather than surprise you.
Message us on WhatsApp with the times that work for you and we will tell you what is available that week. Bear in mind the trip across is slowest right at the end of the working day, so a slightly later slot is often easier than the earliest one after five.
No. There is one NOMAD, at 290 Jalan Cheras in Maluri. One room, one standard, and the same two people behind it — which is the whole reason we have not opened a second.
