Winter Skincare

As people who work in skincare on an every day basis, it was only right that we consulted our spa therapy team for winter skincare tips…

“Remember to exfoliate once a week or when needed to reduce the build-up of dead skin cells, making your skin appear brighter and radiant. Exfoliating allows your skin to breathe and aids absorption of all serums, oils and creams and promotes a glowing complexion”

“Oil based products are essential to help protect and comfort in the winter months as your body and face is adapting to temperature changes. Apply oil underneath a replenishing moisturiser to protect the skin from these harsh weather changes but also lock in the moisture”

“Make sure you’re getting a good nights sleep for your skin repairs and regenerates whilst you are sleeping. This helps especially when your skin is transiting from one season to the next”
