The Skin Investment Clinic ∙ Bespoke Facial
The Skin Investment Clinic
We have all heard the saying that ‘health is wealth’ and if there is one thing we should always be investing in and looking after, it’s our skin. From our daily appearance and self-confidence to feeding our skin from the inside out and combating the signs of ageing. Those who put their skin first will always reap the benefits.
The Skin Investment Clinic does just that for us. Founded by Holly Mason this leading private dermatology centre offers expert treatments that are skin health and rejuvenation focused. From acne bootcamps to chemical peels, lasers, skin boosters and a ‘skin concierge’ membership program, (offered to loyal skin-obsessives), their team of dermatologists, doctors, nurses and aesthetic practitioners can really do it all.
Here at PIBE we love testing a facial and the Bespoke Luxury Facial at The Skin Investment Clinic is now top of our list. With each facial being non-invasive and with no downtime needed, each step is also intentionally chosen and fully tailored. Treating everything from dull and dehydrated skin, to tackling pigmentation, congested pores, redness and fine lines. This facial manages to cleverly combine being both a moment of relaxation but still leaving you with visible results that really last.
Here are the customisable facial steps used on us at PIBE:
1. First up, a gentle pre-cleanse to remove makeup and dirt, ready for the skin analysis. Under a bright light your therapist assesses your skin, looking at acne, pigmentation, texture, hydration levels and more. This will all determine the bespoke element of your facial, meaning the following steps will be suited to what your skin is craving most.
2. This is followed by a thorough double cleanse to deeply clean the skin and remove any oil buildup.
3. Up next, a creamy exfoliator, where gentle grains are slowly massaged in to break down any patches of dry skin and remove dead skin cells.
4. Now for the steam, where a powerful streamer pushes warm vapor onto your face to open pores, loosens oil and softens blackheads for easy extraction.
5. Here your newly supple skin is taken advantage of with a lymphatic massage to really reduce puffiness and fluid retention.
6. This is followed by a thick creamy mask that is applied over the face. Before clever Galvanic tools use low-voltage positive and negative electric currents to help increase circulation and tone your face.
7. Once you are left with the softest base possible, now it’s time for the layering of customised toners, serums, moisturisers and SPF’s, that are all chosen for your skin type. Whether that be sensitive, oily or dry, these light layers are gently applied to firmly lock in moisture and give you a luminous glow, instantly.
Essentially… you are left with a complexion that is radiant, hydrated, uncongested, and insanely plump to touch. Proving that you should always and we mean always…. invest in your skin.
