Hydrate hydrate hydrate!

As the temperature rises, and especially if you are planning a trip abroad to bask in the sun, it’s super important to keep your body and skin hydrated to avoid scaly, flaky skin and to decrease the appearance of lines and wrinkles.

Drink water and eat hydrating foods

Increasing your intake of hydrating foods during the summer months can work wonders for the skin and some foods are even better at hydrating the body than water alone – the combination of rehydration salts potassium, sodium, calcium and magnesium in watermelon, combined with the high water content, means that it packs a powerful hydrating punch. Cucumber, leafy green vegetables and all those juicy tropical fruits like pineapple, mango and berries all help to raise our hydration levels whilst delivering essential vitamins and minerals in one go.

Be prepared

Get skin super plumped before you travel to boost hydration levels. Try our ever popular Hydrafacial which delivers skin hydrating products directly into the skin, including hyaluronic acid, the fundamental skin hydrating and plumping ingredient to soften lines and wrinkles and give you that youthful glow.

The Retinol Wow Peel is the ideal way to sweep away clogging, drying old skin to reveal fresher, healthier skin, whilst delivering skin plumping ingredients such as retinol and peptides to help soften lines and wrinkles.

Topical Hyaluronic Acids

Thanks to ever-improving technology and skin care science, we are now able to offer effective topical creams and serums that are able to deliver Hyaluronic Acid into the skin without going near a needle. Ideal for long term use, these Hyaluronic Acid super chargers help maintain the right amount of water and plumpness in the skin and help to boost a skin that is dehydrated.
