Bloom Beauty Studio

✨ 3 months of having a plan instead of self-prescribing...

When we first started working together, her skin was feeling tight, she was concerned with ageing and uneven skin texture. She was SUPER dehydrated, her oil flow was very stagnated leading to milia and an impaired barrier function.

But rather than jumping straight into stronger actives and trying to “fix” everything at once, we started with the foundations. Working together, no guesswork...

Phase One: strengthen + restore 🫶🏼
For the past three months, she’s been following a prescribed O Cosmedics homecare routine designed to increase hydration, strengthen and rebuild her skin barrier and improve how effectively her skin can protect and support itself.
And now that we have a stronger, healthier foundation to work from, we’ve moved into…

Phase Two: correct + rebuild ✨
We can now confidently introduce more corrective, medical-strength actives alongside professional treatments to work on pigmentation, scarring, collagen loss, firmness and overall skin quality.
And the timing couldn’t be better.

Heading into summer, I want her skin strong, supported and protected - with the right home care in place to help defend against UV exposure, oxidative stress and environmental damage while we continue working towards her longer-term skin goals.
This is exactly why I’m so passionate about skin plans rather than quick fixes.

We don’t need to throw everything at the skin at once.
Strengthen first. Correct second. Protect always. 🤍
These before & afters are only the beginning...

When I’m not in the treatment room…

🚗 Mum taxi mode running between after-school and extra curricular activities

🧘🏼‍♀️ Pilates which is my favourite little bit of me-time as well as having my nails done 💅🏼

✨ LED, regularly & monthly skin treatments including peels or microneedling depending what my skin needs🧖🏽‍♀️ Yes, I practise what I preach

📖 Getting lost in a good book when I get the chance to not be disturbed

Your beauty therapist has a very life outside the treatment room too 😂 😴

🌸 So, what does your spring skincare routine actually look like?

Last week we talked about the 3 spring skincare essentials for brightening, pigment control + daily SPF.

Now let’s put that into practice with a few of my O Cosmedics favourites ✨
🍊 Vitamin C H**p Seed Oil — antioxidant protection + brightness for a healthy spring glow.
💧 O-Biotics B3 Plus Serum — supports hydration, strengthens the skin barrier and helps calm the appearance of redness. Contains 12% Vitamin B3 & acne-friendly Vitamin C
🤍 Concentrated Brightening Serum — targeted brightening support for pigmentation and uneven skin tone.

And, of course… 🌞 SPF every.single.morning!

You don’t need to overhaul your entire routine. Sometimes it’s about introducing the right targeted products for what your skin needs now.
Not sure which products are right for your skin this spring?

Send me a message — I’m always happy to help 💛

It’s one of the reasons O Cosmedics Pure Age Defiance Serum is their #1 selling serum - and one of my favourites for anyone as a multi-functional serum for wanting to target visible signs of ageing.

✨ 12% SNAP-8 Peptide — a powerful peptide designed to help soften the appearance of expression lines and wrinkles
✨ Multi-Vitamin Complex — supports healthier, more resilient-looking skin
✨ Hyaluronic Acid (L-Sodium Hyaluronate) — attracts and binds moisture for hydrated, plumper-looking skin

And the best part? You can take it right around the eye area too, making it perfect for targeting those little expression lines around the eyes.

Think hydration + plumping + smoothing + age-defying peptides all in one serum.
If fine lines, loss of firmness or dehydration are starting to creep in, this is one worth knowing about.

Looks like some of you lovely people have entered me into this 😂🥹

Never in my wildest dreams did I think I’d be writing this post after only 4 months back in business 🤎

The support I’ve received since opening Bloom Beauty Studio has been more than I could have hoped for, and I’m incredibly grateful for every appointment booked, product purchased, recommendation, message and person who has chosen to trust me with their skin and beauty treatments.

But if you’ve met me, you’ll also know that when I do something, I want to give it 110%. For me, it’s never just about the treatment you receive while you’re in the studio. It’s the consultation beforehand, the personalised homecare advice, checking in afterwards, planning your next treatment and providing that wrap-around care that I believe makes SUCH a difference.

So, for now, I’ve made the decision to CLOSE MY BOOKS to new clients.

Behind Bloom Beauty Studio, I’m not only your Beauty Therapist. I’m also the bookkeeper, receptionist, stock controller, ordering department, student doing further training, social media person, cleaner… and, most importantly, Mum. 🤍
There are only so many hours in my week, and I want to protect the time and energy I have so I can continue giving my existing clients the level of care they deserve, while still having the time to be present for my family.

This isn’t necessarily forever, just what I need to do at this stage as my little business continues to grow.
To everyone who has supported me over these first four months: thank you. I genuinely appreciate every single one of you and feel incredibly lucky to be this busy so soon. 🤎

EXISTING CLIENTS — my books are still very much open for you, and I encourage you to keep your future appointments booked ahead...

🌸 SPRING IS HERE! ... and it’s time to spring-clean your skincare routine!

With longer days and increased UV exposure, now is the perfect time to focus on brightening, protecting and preventing pigmentation.
🍊 Vitamin C for antioxidant protection + brightness
😎 Tyrosinase inhibitors to help regulate pigment production
🌞 SPF every single day to protect your results
Remember: you can’t effectively fade pigmentation if you’re not protecting your skin from the UV that triggers it.

Ready to spring-clean your skincare routine? Let’s chat about what your skin needs this season 💛

✨ A little update to my facial menu! ✨

From 1st September, I’ve really thought about how I want my facial menu to be structured, so it’s much clearer for you to know what to book, what your skin may need beforehand, and which add-ons are available.

You’ll notice some slight price changes across my treatments, which reflect my increased supplier costs coming into effect from 1st September. This menu will be on display in the studio for you all!

A little note for my microneedling clients: if you’re currently finishing a microneedling course with me, these price changes don’t apply to you. I also haven’t updated my microneedling menu just yet...

My new microneedling menu will be launching early next year, ready for the autumn/winter season, with some exciting packages included. So keep an eye out!

Even better — join my newsletter to hear about new treatments, updates and special offers before they become public.

As always, I appreciate each and every one of you who supports my little business. Thank you for being here 🤍
