Advice for the Summer

Skin analysis booked for June or July - SPECIAL HALF PRICE OFFER AT ONLY £25.  Discover the health of your skin.  There is lots of advice in the media but from a medical specialist my advice  is factor 30 as a minimum that protects you againg UVA and UVB.  SPF 20 is fine if and only if you use an antioxidant which fights free radicals in the environment and also offers some UV protection.  This advice is all year round, UVA, which are the aging, damaging rays go through glass, so even when you are driving you are exposed!  Got any age spots on your hands or arms.  We stock products for the face and the body.  Also, please remember putting products on once a day is not always enough - it does depend on your activities.  For further advice do give me a call or email.

Peels - buy one and get one half price

Offer of the Month

Purchase any Skinceuticals antioxidant serum and  you will get a free sunblock for the face.

Antioxidants neutralize free radicals, help prevent damage to the skin's support structure and help prevent visible signs of aging by stimulating collagen.

External factors account for approximately 90% of peceived skin aging - including wrinkles, roughness, mottled pigmentation and loss of elasticity.  These external factors include, but are not limited to, smoking, UV light, stress, environment and pollution.  These external factors are called free radicals.

Skin Advice

When purchasing sunblock for your face please make sure the product protects you against UVA and UVB.  Both these harmful rays are around all year round, UVA is responsible for aging the skin prematurely and UVB are the burning rays.

Terms and conditions:- All the Easter specials need to be booked and paid for by the 30th April.

Please do not forget if you are ever stuck for presents, we do gift vouchers from £10 for any occasion.
