Why have a professional facial rather than a DIY one?

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

Why have a professional facial rather than a DIY one?

To ensure you gain the correct homecare and skin related lifestyle advice.

Drink water? Don’t drink water, some alcohol good? Avoid alcohol, scrub daily? don’t scrub daily.

We are constantly bombarded with news and opinions about what is good for our skin and sometimes take this advice from people that are not qualified in any aspect of beauty let alone had a treatment themselves.

At number 4 of why you should have a regular facial is: to improve your skin condition or eradicate a problem.

At number 4 of why you should have a regular facial is: to improve your skin condition or eradicate a problem.

I’m no magician nor do I claim to be, however I increasingly have clients coming to me to assist them with a specific skin concern.

My own fascination with and knowledge of the skin grew as a result of my own Acne related battles so I know only too well the limitations of my skills.

I have, however, successfully treated clients with Acne, Rosacea, Sun damage, Pigmentation and Psoriasis and put it down to the holistic bespoke approach of my treatments and the cosmeceutical (grade above a cosmetic) grade of products that I use and recommend.

No two cases of a skin issue are the same so I don’t use a set, for example, Acne protocol but treat the individual case as required.

The skincare market is a multi billion pound industry and is minefields of promises to clear, brighten, anti age, calm and rehydrate our skins.

If you want to dodge the mines then booking a U andyourskin tm facial is the way to clearer, brighter, younger, calmer, hydrated skin.

1. Mmmm massage....

The feedback that I gain from my clients is that aside from having their ‘blackheads’ squeezed massage is the part of a facial that they find the most worthwhile.

Let’s remind ourselves of the benefits of massage to our skin:

• It increases blood circulation. This aids in the transportation of Oxygen and nutrients to the skin cells to ensure that your skin remains in good health and has what it needs to function efficiently, which is one of the reasons that your diet plays an integral role in maintaining skin health.

• It aids in the elimination of toxins. The skin is an organ of elimination and massage will speed up this process by increasing the flow of Lymph. This fluid carries the waste around our bodies and unlike the blood circulatory system does not have the assistance of a heart to pump it round, so relies on us to move or your therapist to massage it around the body.


• Firming and toning for the skin and muscles of the face and neck. I use a fusion of massage techniques in my bespoke facial treatments one of which can help to life and tone your skin and give you that, as one of my clients said, ‘holiday glow’.

• Relaxation. An opportunity to relax and improve your wellbeing. De stressing the body.


There are no skilled massage hands in your DIY kit.
