Why should I get a facial treatment?

A facial is more than just getting a mask and a massage, its a chance for you to check in with a skin expert…me! Through an initial skin consultation we can examine what the skin needs, if your skincare routine is suited for your skin type and together create a plan so you can achieve your skin goals. Post treatment we can look at adjusting your skincare at home, with salon grade skincare products. During the treatment, I use a combination of holistic techniques and advanced technology in order to achieve radiant skin and a calm mind. If healthy skin is your goal, then a skincare professional can benefit you.



What is the difference in facial treatments?

No treatment will ever be exactly the same, as during the skin analysis I will assess what the skin requires and create an individual treatment for you. However for clarity, I have created a list of treatments on my bookings page. Please click here for further information.



Why have you chosen the products you use?

The skincare I use during my treatments is carefully selected and extensively researched. I also offer these brands as a skincare stockist. Anything that is not available on my website I am happy to order in for you. I use Environ, QMS Medicosmetics, Dermaviduals and my natural, probiotic option is Esse Skincare. This provides me with a line up of skincare that will suit everyone’s needs.



How should I prepare for my facial?
