Dull, dry or textured skin? Sometimes it just needs a really good reset 🤍✨

One of my favourite combinations for instantly fresher-looking skin is microdermabrasion + dermaplaning.

✨ Removes surface dead skin build-up
✨ Removes peach fuzz
✨ Smooths the appearance of texture
✨ Leaves skin looking brighter + fresher
✨ Creates a beautifully smooth base for skincare + makeup

No needles, just a really good skin MOT 😂🤍

Perfect if your skin has been feeling a bit meh and you want that clean, smooth, polished feeling again.

I’ve worked with skin for over 20 years, and I’m a big believer that you don’t always need to do MORE. Sometimes consistent, well-chosen maintenance is exactly what your skin needs.

If you’re not sure which facial is right for your skin, comment GLOW or drop me a message and I’ll happily point you in the right direction.

You know when your skin just feels a bit dull, rough, congested and your makeup isn’t sitting quite right?

Sometimes it just needs a really good reset.

For this brightening facial I combined microdermabrasion + dermaplaning to remove surface dead skin build-up and peach fuzz, smooth the appearance of texture and leave the skin looking instantly fresher and brighter ✨

The bit I LOVE?

Your skincare goes onto beautifully smooth skin afterwards and your makeup sits like an absolute DREAM 😂🤍

No needles. No changing your face.

Just clean, smooth, polished, healthy-looking skin.

This is the kind of maintenance I mean when I’m always telling you girls that consistency with your skin matters more than waiting until you’re desperate for a facial 😂

If yours is feeling a bit meh at the moment, DM me “RESET” and I’ll tell you what I’d recommend 🤍

Okay, THIS is what I mean when I say we’re working on skin quality 🤍✨

Today’s combination was all about brightening, resurfacing and rejuvenating. Targeting the appearance of pigmentation, uneven tone, fine lines and texture while bringing back that fresh, healthy-looking glow.

For the under eyes, face and around the mouth 👀 I used microdermabrasion to remove surface dead skin build-up and instantly freshen & brighten the appearance of the area, followed by Vitaran polynucleotides 🧬 to support repair, hydration and overall skin quality.

Perfect when we’re working on dullness, dehydration and that fine, crepey texture around the eyes.

When treating pigmentation, especially in melanin-rich skin, it’s really important that treatments are chosen carefully for YOUR skin rather than just going stronger.

The goal isn’t to change your face.

It’s your skin… on a REALLY good day 😂🤍

Brighter. Smoother. Fresher. More even ✨

This is exactly why I love combining treatments rather than throwing one random treatment at every concern. Your plan should make sense for YOUR skin.

If pigmentation, texture, dullness or fine lines are bothering you and you don’t know where to start, DM me “GLOW” + a photo of your skin and I’ll tell you what I’d recommend 🤍

TOP TIP from me after years of working with skin… get yourself some soft flannels!! 👀 Save this one.

Textured skin honey? I got you 😂🤍 But you’ve gotta understand this sis…

Your skin is literally renewing itself ALL the time. New skin cells are made deeper in the epidermis and gradually work their way up until the older dead cells at the surface naturally shed.

Fun fact… around a month is a good ballpark for younger adult skin, but as we get older this process can become slower. That’s one of the reasons skin can start looking duller, rougher and just not as fresh.

Use a fresh, comfortably warm flannel when you cleanse. It helps properly remove your cleanser, makeup and SPF and gives you a little gentle physical exfoliation at the same time. Use nice light sweeping movements and give yourself a little facial massage while you’re there too. Lovely when you’re feeling puffy.

Don’t scrub your face off though 😂 we’re exfoliating, not stripping wallpaper.

Then we’ve got collagen and elastin, the stuff that gives our skin that firm, strong, bouncy look. As we age, collagen production gradually declines.

This is why I LOVE microneedling. Those tiny controlled micro injuries trigger your skin’s natural repair response and get the fibroblasts involved. They’re the clever little cells involved in producing collagen and your skin’s support structure.

Basically telling your skin “come on babe, we’ve still got work to do” 😂

And when you come to me for your facial you’re getting more than skin maintenance. You’ve got 90 minutes with me. Switch off, relax, talk my ear off if you need to, have a little vent or close your eyes and say absolutely nothing. I’ll look after you 🤍

Good skin, a proper reset and a listening ear if you need one.

And don’t you DARE forget your SPF. Face, neck, chest AND hands please ☀️

These are the basics. Keep doing them consistently.

Textured skin, honey? I got you 😂🤍 But you’ve gotta understand this, sis…

Your skin is literally renewing itself all the time.

✨ FUN FACT: new skin cells are made deeper in the epidermis and gradually travel upwards, eventually becoming the dead cells at the surface that naturally shed.

When we’re younger, this renewal tends to happen more efficiently. Around a month is a useful ballpark for younger adult skin, but it isn’t a fixed 30-day clock — turnover varies and generally becomes slower with age.

That’s one reason skin can start looking duller, rougher and less fresh as we get older.

✨ MY TOP TIP: get yourself some soft flannels.

A fresh, comfortably warm flannel when you cleanse helps properly remove your cleanser, makeup and SPF while giving the surface of the skin a little gentle physical exfoliation. Use light sweeping movements and you get a lovely facial massage too especially nice when you’re puffy. Morning and eve after you’ve applied & massaged cleanser in…

No scrubbing and no boiling water though. We’re exfoliating your face, not stripping wallpaper 😂

Then we have collagen. As we age, collagen production gradually declines. 25/30/35 and so on… you literally feel and see the big drops…

Treatments such as microneedling create controlled micro-injury, triggering a wound-healing response involving fibroblasts- the cells responsible for producing collagen and other parts of your skin’s support structure.
PRESERVE YOURSELF KIDs!
