Hannah Rose - Advanced Facialist

The ‘ber’ months are here 🍂🤎… but your SPF isn’t going anywhere!

It’s easy to associate SPF with summer, holidays and sunny days, but UV exposure doesn’t disappear just because the temperature drops.

And if you’re working on pigmentation, using active skincare or investing in treatments throughout autumn and winter, keeping that daily protection in place is SO important.

Think of it as protecting all the hard work we’re putting into your skin ✨

Same SPF. Different season. 🤎

Save this as your little September reminder not to pack the SPF away just yet! 🍂

A little reminder for anyone building a business in the skin industry 🤎

It’s so easy to measure success by a full diary, followers, sales or how quickly you’re growing.

But the real foundations are built in the quieter moments — the consultation where someone finally feels listened to, the client who comes back because they trust you, the message saying their skin is improving, and the recommendation they give to a friend.

Those things might not look huge on paper, but they’re what build a sustainable business.

Trust first. The rest follows. 💙

And to every client who continues to choose me with their skin — thank you. It never goes unnoticed.

Don’t be alarmed if your facialist says no to the treatment you booked — they’re doing it because they care about your skin, not just the appointment. 🤎

Certain skin conditions can be triggered or worsened by the wrong facial techniques, ingredients or technologies — so assessing the health of your skin first is essential.

Sometimes I’ll adapt your treatment. Sometimes I’ll recommend something completely different. And occasionally, I’ll say not today.

Because protecting your skin will always come before simply performing the treatment you booked. 🤎

I’ll always review your skin before I treat it. 🤎

Because what you’ve booked isn’t always what your skin needs that day.

This client had developed melasma over the last 12 months, which wasn’t only affecting her confidence — her skin barrier had also become compromised.

With so much conflicting advice around pigmentation, she had become understandably confused about what she should (and shouldn’t!) be using.

So before we even thought about targeting the pigment, our first priority was simple: calm, strengthen and support the skin. 🤎

The home routine needed rectifying first. 🤎

So although we used some of her treatment time to educate rather than treat, it meant she left understanding exactly what her skin needed.

With the right ingredients, the right routine and less confusion, she can now support her skin every single day — and work towards long-term results, not just a temporary facial fix.

This isn’t the first time I’ve said no to a client’s treatment choice — and it certainly won’t be the last. 🤎

I care about your skin and will always prioritise what’s best for its health, while educating you along the way — but never compromising on the experience you came for.

Sometimes the best treatment deci

That tight, squeaky-clean feeling after cleansing? 🫧 It’s not necessarily a good thing.

Your cleanser should leave your skin feeling soft, comfortable & balanced — never stripped.

Healthy skin starts with getting the basics right. 🤎

Your skin barrier is your skin’s first line of defence. 🤎

It helps keep moisture in and irritants out — so when it becomes compromised, you may notice dryness, tightness, sensitivity, irritation or even breakouts.

Healthy skin starts with a healthy barrier. ✨

Cleansing is something we ask our skin to tolerate twice a day, every day 🫧

While we’re removing makeup, SPF, dirt and excess sebum, cleansing can also temporarily disrupt some of the surface lipids that help protect our skin barrier.

Healthy skin usually recovers from this little challenge just fine — but if your barrier is already struggling, you’re over-cleansing, or your cleanser is too harsh, it can become harder for your skin to bounce back.

That tight, dry feeling after cleansing? Your skin might be telling you something. 🤎

Just to be clear — I’m not saying every bit of tightness after cleansing means your skin barrier is compromised! 🫧

Sometimes, your skin simply doesn’t love the cleanser you’re using, or you may be cleansing a little too much.

And the good news? One tiny tweak to your cleanser can make a HUGE difference to how comfortable, balanced and happy your skin feels. 🤎

Not sure if your cleanser is actually right for your skin? 🫧🤎

My FREE online digital skin consultation is an easy place to start, or we can take a deeper look at your skin together during an in-person consultation.

I can help you choose a cleanser that suits your skin rather than simply following what’s trending.

☕️ SMALL BUSINESS MONDAYS | EPISODE 5: THE DISAPPEARING CLIENT

This one feels a little vulnerable to share…

Have you ever supported a small business for a while… and then life got busy, finances changed, or your priorities shifted?

If so, please know… there is absolutely no judgement. 🤍

Running a small business means you genuinely get to know the people who walk through your door. You’re not just another booking in the diary—you become part of the story of the business.

So when someone quietly disappears, our minds naturally start asking questions…

“Was everything okay?”

“Could I have done something differently?”

“Did I miss something?”

The reality is, most of the time it has nothing to do with us.

Life gets busy.

Children come along.

Money gets tighter.

Work gets hectic.

Priorities change.

And that’s all part of life.

But if there ever was something that didn’t quite meet your expectations, I’d always rather know.

Not because I expect perfection—but because feedback is one of the greatest gifts you can give a small business. It helps us grow, improve and become even better for the next person who walks through the door.

Behind every small business is a real person who cares deeply about what they do.

And if you’ve ever supported mine—whether you’ve visited once or fifty times—thank you.

It genuinely means more than you probably realise. 🤍

👇 Fellow small business owners… do you ever find yourself wondering what happened to a client who quietly disappeared?

Healthy skin isn’t perfect skin. 🤎

It has texture. It has pores. It has good days, hormonal days, stressed days and “what on earth is going on?!” days. 😂

The goal isn’t to chase perfection — it’s to support your skin so it can function at its best.

✨ Consistent skincare
✨ Treatments that actually suit your skin
✨ Protecting and respecting your skin barrier
✨ Patience (the hardest one, I know!)

Your skin is constantly working for you. Give it a little grace, stay consistent, and remember that healthy skin will always be the goal. 🤎

☕️ SMALL BUSINESS MONDAYS | EPISODE 4: THE EDUCATION HAS VALUE

This one has been on my mind for a while…

One of my favourite parts of my job isn’t actually the treatments.

It’s the education.

Sitting down with someone, understanding their skin, analysing concerns, explaining ingredients, looking through their skin scan, answering every question and building a skincare plan that actually makes sense.

There has never been, and never will be, any pressure to buy products from me.

If someone leaves feeling more confident about their skin, I’ve done my job.

But what many people don’t realise is this…

That personalised advice isn’t free to provide.

It’s built on years of study, thousands of pounds invested in education, continual professional development, clinic technology, and time dedicated to every individual consultation.

So when someone takes all of that personalised advice and then buys elsewhere to save a few pounds using a celebrity discount code, it can be a little disheartening.

Not because of the sale…

But because those purchases are what allow small independent clinics like mine to continue investing in education, technology and the personalised care that makes those consultations possible in the first place.

The big online retailers can compete on price.

Small businesses compete on expertise, service and relationships.

So if you’ve ever chosen to support an independent practitioner by purchasing through them…

Thank you.

You haven’t just bought a product.

You’ve invested in the future of a small business that genuinely cares about helping people achieve healthier skin. 🤍

Your skin deserves the results. You deserve the pause. 🤍
