As the days grow longer and the promise of spring fills the air, there’s no better time to refresh your skincare routine and bring a healthy, radiant glow back to your complexion. After the dulling effects of winter, our skin often needs a little extra care and attention to restore its natural brightness and vitality. With the right guidance and a few carefully chosen products, you can achieve beautifully luminous skin that’s not only ready for spring, but also protected and nourished from within. Whether you're looking to even out skin tone, smooth texture, or simply enhance your glow, these expert-backed tips will help you feel confident in your skin all season long.


  1. You can greatly improve your skin tone and texture by nurturing your skin with the correct medical grade skincare. Following a consultation, I will be able to assess your skin and tailor make a skincare routine just for you. This may include products to exfoliate the skin gently, a vitamin C serum such as Alumier everactive C&E peptide or a serum such as Alumier Ultimate Boost Serum to improve the skin barrier. 


  2. 80% of skin ageing is caused by damage from UV light so it is essential to find a sunscreen with spf 30 to 50 to use every single day even when it is cloudy. Depending on your skin type I will be able to recommend a sunscreen for you. Mineral sunscreen such as Alumier Sheer Hydration or Obagi Mineral sunscreen contain no chemicals are more sophisticated and popular these days leaving no white cast. 


  3. Feeding your skin from within will optimise skin health. A balanced diet low in sugar and dairy (which cause inflammation) is recommended together with foods rich in antioxidants like strawberries, kale, spinach, pomegranate, artichokes raspberries and beets. Also ensure you incorporate foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids (from fish, nuts, or seeds) to nourish your skin from within. A diet rich in these elements will help your body’s natural production of collagen, keeping your skin looking plump and youthful. 


  4. Collagen nutraceutical drinks such as Skinade have been clinically proven to increase collagen in the skin to strengthen the skin, re balance the oiliness and reduce fine lines. 


  5. The addition of a retinoid to your skincare routine to change your skin at a cellular level will increase cell turnover and help to even skin tone, reduce pigmentation and fine lines. There are many different retinoids including retinol retinyl esters and tretinoin and these will need to be selected according to your skin type and tolerance and introduced slowly. 


Consistent home skincare, along with the right skincare tips, prepares your skin for in-clinic treatments like chemical peels and Profhilo, enhancing your ultimate glow.


Your future self will thank you if you take good care of your skin now.
