Aftercare is a concept you will have experienced no matter what beauty, holistic or aesthetic treatment you have had. Part of your journey, it helps in optimising every treatment to get the best out of it, individual to you!
As an industry standard, 99% of treatments the aftercare advice includes drinking lots of water, avoid caffeine and alcohol for 24 hours post treatment, minimise strenuous activity and keep any products on the skin as long as possible. BUT… what else can you do to optimise this £100 facial or million-dollar manicure! The short but simple answer is the aftercare at home to maintain your glowing skin!
It is tale telling sign for your therapist when you return for your next appointment if you have followed aftercare or simply used a baby wipe and water!
BASIC SKINCARE
In terms of every basic skin routine, our therapists recommend a cleanser, toner, exfoliator and moisturiser. Each of these should then be specifically tailored to your skin type to avoid negative effects on your skin such as breakouts, redness, dryness or even physical discomfort. It is important to get the advice of a professional when it comes to looking after your skin and choosing skin care individual to you!
ADVANCED SKINCARE
Once you have nailed down the basics of skincare, why not step into the world of advanced skincare? This can feel overwhelming when you start looking at all the products on the market these days, but it doesn’t need to be, our typical advanced products recommendations are:
⁃ Facial oils

Let’s see what our therapists recommend…
“ I personally love to have the Hyaluronic advanced facial as I have had a lot of facial aesthetics that include hyaluronic acid (the main ingredient in the facial) and I always leave the treatment room after one looking super glowy and my skin feels super hydrated and firm, almost like I’ve had more Botox! 😉. I would recommend the Hyaluronic facial.” – Lauren, therapist experience 10 years.
“ I like the vitamin C advanced facial, it’s a very invigorating but relaxing facial to have, it gives you such a glow! My favourite part of the treatment is the massage, where we use a specifically designed massage ball to increase blood flow and lymphatic drainage, I’ve never known a facial like it, it’s also the part of the facial I like to the most do on clients☺️.” – Victoria, therapist experience 18 years.
