A few things I’ve learnt the hard way this year 🤠

Life has a really funny way of teaching you the lessons you probably weren’t ready to hear.

This year didn’t break me. Yet lol.
But it introduced me to a version of myself I wouldn’t have met otherwise. & Some lessons cost a lot to learn. 🤷🏻‍♀️

One of the most underrated parts of your skincare routine is actually cleansing properly.

I see so many people spending £££ on serums, treatments and moisturisers, but rushing through the one step that sets everything else up.

Your cleanser should remove the day without leaving your skin feeling tight, dry or uncomfortable.

And yes at night, I’m a big believer in double cleansing if you’re wearing SPF, makeup or have built up oil/product throughout the day.

But remember… more cleansing ≠ better cleansing.

Using the right cleanser for YOUR skin type is just as important. What works beautifully for your friend might be completely wrong for your skin. 🫧

You may not need ANOTHER skincare product… you probably just need to know what the hell you’re doing with the ones you already have! 🫧

I see this ALL the time.

A bathroom full of expensive skincare, products bought because TikTok/Instagram said they were amazing, 5 different serums… and absolutely no idea what goes where. 🫠

The truth is, skincare isn’t about having the most products.

It’s about having the RIGHT products for YOUR skin, using them correctly and being consistent.

More ≠ better.

Sometimes simplifying your routine is exactly what your skin needs. 🤌🏼

So before you buy another viral product, save this post & have a little skincare cupboard clear-out.

And if you’re still confused about what your skin actually needs… that’s where I come in. 💁🏻‍♀️

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT WHEN BOOKING A FACIAL WITH ME 👀🫦

I wanted to share a little insight into what you can actually expect when you book in with me.

From high-quality professional skincare, a clean & hygienic environment and a completely non-judgemental space, to honest advice, personalised treatment & homecare plans and aftercare support.

Some treatments might be super relaxing, others might be a little spicy 🌶️ — but my main focus will always be getting your skin healthier and working towards real, long-term results.

And don’t worry… there’s no pressure to spend or book your next appointment. I’ll never sell you something you don’t need lol.

Most importantly, I want you to feel comfortable, listened to, cared for & confident in the plan we create for your skin.

And ofc you’re also welcome to trauma dump or not talk while I do your facial whatever floats your boat ✌🏻 # # #

How much product do you actually need? 👀

One of the biggest mistakes I see is people applying wayyy too much of certain products, while not applying enough of others.

So here’s your visual guide ↑

→ Cleanser: 1-2 pumps
→ Serum: 2-4 drops
→ Retinol: pea sized amount
→ Eye cream: rice-grain sized amount per eye
→ Moisturiser: 1-2 pumps
→ SPF: 2-finger rule for face + neck

Hope this helps! Save this one for your future self 🫧

Still building.
Still learning.
Still figuring it out.
Still dreaming bigger.

But I’m finally learning to enjoy the life while I’m building it 🤌🏻 👄 “Happiness is not in the pursuit of happiness, but in the journey.”

If skincare ingredients had actual jobs… 😂👩🏼‍💼

Because understanding skincare doesn’t have to feel like learning another language.

Every ingredient has a different role. Some hydrate, some exfoliate, some protect, some calm inflammation and some are basically running the whole operation. 🫢

I’ve turned just some of my favourite skincare ingredients into actual employees so you can finally understand WHO is doing WHAT for your skin. 🫧

6 MONTHS. 2 TREATMENTS. A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT SKIN. 🤍

Believe it or not, Abi has only had 2 professional treatments with me.

So what made the biggest difference?

Her HOMECARE. 👏🏻

When Abi came to me, we completely stripped back her existing routine and started again. I assessed what her skin was actually presenting with and built a targeted homecare routine around acne, inflammation, congestion and post-inflammatory marks.

Because treating acne-prone skin isn’t about constantly throwing more treatments at it.

It’s about consistency, the right active ingredients, supporting the skin barrier and addressing the underlying causes of what you’re seeing.

Professional treatments can absolutely accelerate results — but what you do every single day at home is where the real transformation happens.

This is exactly why I’m always banging on about homecare. 😂

I don’t want to just give you a nice facial and send you home.

I want to understand WHY your skin is behaving the way it is, create a plan that makes sense for your skin and give you the tools to actually change it.

Less inflammation
→ Fewer active breakouts
→ More even-looking skin
→ Reduced appearance of post-acne marks
→ Healthier, stronger skin overall

If you’re stuck in the cycle of buying products, trying random routines and still not getting the results you want…

Let’s stop guessing.

Book your skin consultation and let’s create a proper plan for YOUR skin.
