The Skin Shed

🩵June is acne awareness month

🩵I was an Acne sufferer until the age of 30 so this is a real passion of mine

🩵So I just wanted to share with you an adorable teenage client of mine who came to me with quite severe acne back in November … as you can see we have very quickly got fantastic results using some PRO advanced exfoliation and LED light therapy

🩵But not only have we been doing regular pro advanced treatments in house , my client has really listened to the home advice I have given her and has been using nothing but Dermalogica at home in between treatments .

🩵Sadly there is no quick fix for breakouts but as you can see it IS possible to get rid of those pesky breakouts but only quickly when working together in a partnership of pro advise, treatments and products combined

🩵My client is over the moon and now happy to be makeup free and skin confident . She is beautiful and im so happy for her and more importantly we managed to avoid harsh medication too!

🩵We are continuing with our programme but lessening the strength as the skin improves and more as a preventative going forward

🩵If you or your teen is struggling with breakouts and need advise then pls get in touch as teen acne is very different to adult acne and it takes a real 360 approach to tackle it but i will educate you too in fully understanding your skin , what’s happening , why , and how together we get you results !

🩵I also offer masterclasses on the subject if you have a bunch of teens keen to learn more on acne and how best to treat it or if you want to come along with your teens

🩵Pls dm to arrange an appointment or contact via the link in my bio👆🏻👆🏻👆🏻

Acne Awareness Month - Adult acne and teenage acne are based on the same issues; genetics and blocked pores. However, the main difference lies in the triggers. Read about this and more in my June newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/41c8e2f2a2a2/skin-shed-news-june-2024

The good news is that 90% of skin cancers are avoidable, so just like you make healthy choices for the rest of your body, we should include an SPF (sun protection factor aka daylight protection) in our daily skin routine.

Invisible Physical Defence SPF30 is ideal for sensitive skin and those who don’t tolerate chemical sunscreens. Invisible, weightless defence with ultra-sheer Zinc Oxide. Also defends against blue light.

Light therapy works on different levels of the skin working on different skin concerns like acne, ageing and sensitivity so works much lower into the dermis than we can work during a hands-on treatment. LED when used regularly can really tackle pigmentation and stimulates collagen and cell renewal, tackling those stubborn hard to treat sun induced skin concerns.
You can hire my machine to use daily in the comfort of your own home - it’s easy to use and super relaxing, to really achieve results and you’ll have the freedom to use the LED in your own time as often as you like during the rented period.
£100 per week when booked and paid for in May (normally £140 per week)
If you have stubborn skin concerns and think this is something you may be interested in then please let me know, contact me: 07778 490 890 or [email protected]

To support Skin Cancer Awareness for May I have an OFFER on Pro BRIGHT skin treatments to really tackle sun damage, lines, wrinkles, dullness, pigmentation, and all the accumulative negative effects from UV.
Pro Bright treatment 75 mins x1 £75 (normally £90)
Fade dark spots and reveal brighter skin. A high-intensity treatment to boost absorption of Vitamin C effectively giving an immediate brightening boost addressing dull, uneven skin tone and pigmentation, revealing brighter smoother skin.
A course of x3 when booked and paid for in May includes a FREE SPF to use at home for £270 (worth £360)
To book this offer, contact me: 07778 490 890 or [email protected]

In fact, I recommend everyone include an SPF30 or SPF50 in their DAILY regimen, no matter your skin type, skin tone or age not only to protect against skin cancer but also from the other damaging effects UV can cause like ageing in the form of lines and wrinkles and pigmentation.

Professional Skin Therapists are uniquely placed to observe any abnormalities or changes to their client’s skin - often in areas clients can’t see themselves. This puts therapists in a powerful position to spot the early signs and advise their client(s) to act, which could drastically improve prognosis.

Dynamic Skin Recovery SPF50 is a medium-weight moisturiser for ageing skin. Antioxidant White Tea and a unique Peptide protect the skin whilst minimising the appearance of skin ageing.

In case you didn’t know May is skin cancer awareness month
It is so important to use daylight protection in the form of an SPF (sun protection factor) as this is the only way to best protect our skin against skin cancer.

Dermalogica has a wide selection of SPF moisturisers, designed for daily use that not only offers broad spectrum UV defence but are also formulated to treat the skin condition and offer additional skin defending antioxidants, all in wearable, non-clogging formulas.

Prisma Protect SPF30 is a light-activated moisturiser with intelligent drone technology to boost skin luminosity plus antioxidant technology to protect against pollution. Suitable for all skins.

Stress and pigmentation.
Chronic stress can trigger a hormone that can increase pigment production which often tends to start on the outer periphery of the face and spread inwards. All forms of pigmentation are made worse by UV exposure so always apply daily a high level (spf50) sunscreen.

Stress and sensitivity.
The brain chemicals change during stress, which involves the nervous system and an inflammatory cascade of events which can lead to inflammation on the skin showing as redness, welts, itchiness and if you suffer with an inflammatory skin condition such as eczema, psoriasis, or rosacea you’ll likely experience flare ups during periods of stress. You may also find the skin less tolerant during stressful times. It’s important to simplify you’re at home routine sticking to just basics and using products to soothe and calm.
For stress induced skin sensitivity try ultra-calming serum concentrate

Stress and breakouts.
The primary factor of adult acne is chronic stress! Stress increases cortisol and increases oil production which mixes with dead skin cells and bacteria to clog the pores and cause breakouts. Not only that, but psychological stress can also slow wound healing by up to 40% which may contribute to the slow healing of acne breakouts as adults.
Try age bright clearing serum for stress induced breakouts.

What most people don’t realise is that the hours we spend asleep are among the most constructive and the skin is far from being nocturnal.
Whilst we sleep the brain recharges and cellular repair ramps UP.
Just a few nights of missed sleep can lead to dull skin and fine lines and continued sleep insufficiency can result in hypertension, diabetes, and a host of other issues.
So, whilst it’s not always easy to get the full recommended 7 hours of sleep nightly we can maximise the sleep we DO get with Dermalogica’s Sound Sleep Cocoon. It is a revitalizing night-time moisturising gel cream that transforms skin overnight by optimizing night-time skin recovery, soothes and calms to promote deep restful sleep with motion-activated essential oils for healthier skin and better sleep visibly improving radiance and skin fatigue.
