It’s funny how easy it is to lose sight of the things you know when life gets overwhelming.
The last year has challenged me in ways I never expected. Somewhere between having a baby, running a business, losing that business and trying to hold everything together, I stopped prioritising myself.
And my skin is showing it.
But this isn’t just about getting my skin back.
It’s about getting back to the things I believe in, trusting my knowledge and finding my way back to myself.
So for the next 90 days, I’m taking you along as I rebuild my skin health, get back to basics and share what I know about creating genuinely healthy skin.
No quick fixes. No chasing trends. Just good skin science, consistency and a little more care for myself.
Here’s to starting again. 🤎
There are some things that are really hard to put into words.
Sol Spa has officially closed its doors.
What started as a little home clinic grew into something bigger than I ever imagined. I’m incredibly proud of what we created, the women who were part of it, and every single client who trusted us along the way.
But somewhere along the way, my definition of success changed.
Becoming a mum changed me. And eventually I had to acknowledge that the version of success I had spent years chasing was no longer the version I wanted for my life.
So this is the end of Sol Spa but it isn’t the end of me.
I’m returning to where so much of this began: working under my own name, in a much smaller private studio, doing the work I genuinely love.
Less noise. Less pressure. More intention.
And hopefully, a little more space to find myself again too.
Thank you for being part of Sol Spa.
Here’s to the next chapter.

Cortisol doesn’t just stress your mind — it can quietly show up on your skin, too. ✨
In this one, Chloe walks through how cortisol can disrupt blood sugar balance, and what that shift means for breakouts, inflammation and healing.
She also shares our favourite ways to support this from both angles — vitamin B3 and vitamin A topically, alongside zinc and omegas internally.
Because breakouts aren’t just a skin problem. They’re often a sign your body is asking for support.

There’s a trend right now of treating hormonal acne as purely internal — see a naturopath, balance your hormones, done. Hormones do drive it: they increase oil production in the skin. But that’s only half the picture.
They also affect the quality of that oil — essential fatty acids determine whether it flows smoothly or clogs. And they speed up skin cell turnover, so if your barrier isn’t working properly, those cells get trapped instead of shedding. That’s what creates the plug.
If I was 35 with hormonal acne, I wouldn’t reach for a stronger cleanser. I’d focus on gentle exfoliation, support the oil quality with essential fatty acids, and keep the barrier genuinely healthy.
I’m 41, currently going through postpartum acne myself — doing the internal work, and this, at the same time.
Save this if you’ve been told it’s “just hormonal.”

Every Sol Skin Method plan starts with a Skin Discovery Session ($189) — not a generic membership menu. We map your skin and your holistic health, then build a plan for the next six to twelve months, not just the next facial.
No two skin plans ever look the same. Some skin needs two sessions in repair. Other skin needs six months there before we even touch a targeted concern. Your session includes your first facial — a gentle enzyme and hydrating algae mask, focused on barrier repair — plus home care built only from what your skin actually needs.

A cleanser that’s stripping the skin. Skipping it altogether. Moisturiser and SPF treated as optional. Then a serum goes on top, expecting it to do the work.
Serums can’t perform on skin that isn’t prepped. Healthy skin starts with the right cleanser, moisturiser and SPF — every day, done properly. That’s what primes the skin to actually receive everything else.
Save this if you’ve been skipping the basics, and follow along for more this month.

This is the belief behind everything we at Sol Spa. Skin isn’t separate from the rest of you, your nervous system, your history, how supported you feel walking in the door. That’s why corrective treatments here still happen in a beautiful, calm space, not under fluorescent lighting and pressure.
If this is your first time here, welcome. Follow all as we shared more of how and why we do things differently.
