Sun Safety, Peels & Myths ☀️🧊
July has arrived, and with it comes sunshine, social calendars, and the desire for glowing skin that doesn’t melt off by midday.
Whether you’re jetting off on holiday, dancing through festivals, or simply soaking up a British summer (fingers crossed!), now’s the time to focus on skin that’s clear, calm, and confidence-boosting, without high maintenance.
This week, we’re answering your top summer skincare questions, from what’s safe in the sun to what treatments actually work.
☀️ Can I still have peels or skin treatments in summer?
Yes, but with care. It’s a common myth that you can’t have skin treatments during summer. The truth? Many treatments, like light peels or HydraFacials, are summer-safe and perfect for maintaining glow and clarity during the warmer months.
We avoid deep, aggressive peels when UV levels are high, but gentle exfoliation, hydration, and inflammation-reducing facials are absolutely in. We’ll guide you on what’s best for your skin type and lifestyle.
🧴 Do I really need SPF every day?
In one word: YES.
Sun protection isn’t just for beach days, UVA rays are present year-round and contribute to premature ageing, pigmentation, and skin damage. Apply a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ every morning (and reapply if you’re out and about!).
Bonus: Many of our favourite summer-safe moisturisers now come with SPF built in, ask us for a recommendation at your next visit.
❄️ My skin feels inflamed and oily …. help!
Heat, sweat, and product overload can leave your skin stressed and out of balance. That’s where our “Cool Confidence” treatments come in.
Think deeply cleansing facials, anti-inflammatory serums, and ice-cold masks to soothe, hydrate, and refine your texture.
Hydrafacial is a clinic favourite this time of year, it detoxes, hydrates, and leaves your skin smooth and radiant, without any downtime.
💬 Is it true your skin gets worse before it gets better?
It can – but it’s not always a bad sign. If you’re starting a new skincare routine or having a detoxifying treatment, your skin might temporarily purge impurities. This is usually short-lived and a sign that your skin is clearing out congestion. We’ll always prep you with what to expect post-treatment.
