Q. I have read about ‘DIY’ facial kits that you can buy. Are they any good and will they replace a facial?

Q. I have read about ‘DIY’ facial kits that you can buy. Are they any good and will they replace a facial?

A. Even I as a skin therapist, have to remind myself of the virtues of having a professional facial treatment.
I thought, therefore, I would remind you too and over the next 5 weeks give you 5 reasons to have a facial.

I do get quite cross by the suggestions that an over the counter cosmetic range can be a substitute for my, soon to be, 14 years of skin treating experience so reason no 1has to be:

1. To find out your correct skin type and condition.

Any skin therapist worth their weight should always start with a full and detailed consultation. This is to a) determine your medical history and to ensure that you can have the treatment, b) to determine your true skin type and condition and c) to allow a treatment and homecare plan to be devised. These are amongst other important fact finding issues.

For those of you that read my previous blogs, you will know that it is virtually impossible to have your skin type determined without a thorough consult and skin analysis minus your make up.

You certainly won’t get this from buying a DIY facial kit and you maybe using products that could be aggravating your skins condition.

This was one of the reasons I developed the U andyourskin tm facial. This bespoke skin treatment takes a 3 dimensional approach to treating your skin by working with science, nutrition and holistic therapies.

It pulls on all of my ever growing skin related knowledge which you certainly can’t find on the side of a product box.
