Just in time for summer parties, events and the festive season!
START EARLY—Don’t leave glowing skin preparations for the last minute! To have the glowiest skin possible takes a little planning!
BOOK A SKIN CONSULTATION
Firstly, book in for a free skin consultation at 360 Skin Studio. It will be a thorough bespoke consultation to assess your skin and what it needs to look fabulous for all up-and-coming events.
After your consultation, you’ll know how to amp up your home care results by incorporating Environ Medical skincare moisturisers and booster serums morning and night.
It does take time to see these changes, so ideally, to revive and refresh your skin, allow 4-6 weeks before that major event!
Your skin prescription will most likely include some AHA’s (Alpha Hydroxy Acids) to gently remove dead and dull skin cells, allowing the fresh, dewy skin cells to be on show– avoid harsh scrubbing at all costs!
AHA’S AND SERUM RECOMMENDATIONS
AHA’s come in various forms such as Masques and Toners using combinations of Lactic, Mandelic and Glycolic Acids to reveal healthy, smooth, radiant skin.
Serums are fabulous to give the skin that extra boost, used underneath your moisturiser.
Dewy, glowing skin is guaranteed to transform dull, dehydrated skin when Environ’s moisture-boosting Hyaluronic Serum is added to your routine. It hydrates and plumps up wrinkle depth to give a softer, fuller, hydrated look and is also super important to help with cellular activity, helping to rejuvenate skin.

Peptide Serums such as Environ’s Avance Elixir are multi-functioning serums that contain 3 powerful cell messengers that can make changes in the dermis and on the skin’s surface - to strengthen and rejuvenate, as well as have resiliently younger skin for longer!

Skin that looks fatigued, shows redness, inflammation, and easily reacts to changes in temperature will love Environ’s Serience Night Serum Gel – It is so soothing, and reduces skin stress responses, redness and also improves dark circles around the eyes.
Why not create your own serene spa at home to unwind, rebalance and de-stress by lighting a candle, running a bath or making yourself a refreshing herbal tea. When applying Serience Night Serum Gel, it’s lovely to practice mindful breathing techniques. Your skin will look relaxed and calm. Focus Youth Serience Night Serum — 360 Skin Studio
DIET AND LIFESTYLE TIPS
Radiant skin needs plenty of hydration internally too! – Keep yourself well hydrated by drinking around 2 litres of water daily. Avoid excessive alcoholic drinks, coffee, tea and fizzy drinks, as they all add up to increased dehydration for your skin cells.
Eating a nutrient-dense diet rich in antioxidants from colourful fruit and vegetables, whole grains, healthy fats such as those from avocados and olive oil, and lean protein will not only benefit healthy, glowing skin by strengthening the barrier, promoting collagen and hydration, but it will also boost your energy levels and stabilise your mood.
Keep late nights in check! A great night’s sleep mustn’t be underestimated! A well-rested body reflects in skin health. Remember to reduce the use of mobile phones and computers at night too. When you’re tired, it is often too easy to make the excuse that you’re too tired to cleanse and prepare your skin at night, please don’t fall into this trap, as skin needs to be freshly washed and given all the vitamins and nutrients it requires to repair while you sleep.
DAILY APPLICATION OF SUN PROTECTION
This is an absolute non-negotiable which must be reapplied every 11/2 to 2 hours when spending time outdoors. Check that your SPF is broad-spectrum so that you have protection all year round from UVA rays (the ageing ones) and UVB rays (the burning ones most prevalent in summer).

If you’re spending a lot of your day looking at computer screens, then explore the use of a Blue Light filter too. Environ’s Complete Anti-Pollution Spritz is a very calming shield which you spritz on a couple of times a day or as often as you like. It effectively reduces damage from blue light so that skin looks less inflamed and healthy. Focus Care Comfort Complete Anti-Pollution Spritz — 360 Skin Studio
FACIALS—THERAPY FOR YOUR SKIN
Glowing skin can be achieved using Environ medical skincare twice daily. However, the icing on the cake for enhanced results and some “Me Time” is to book a series of moisture-boosting, hydrating facials.
At 360 Skin Studio, we use a variety of techniques and devices to infuse serums deeper into the skin and to activate repair, rejuvenation and hydration, such as sonophoresis, iontophoresis, Cool Peels and LED Light Therapy. They all help to boost skin health, brighten, hydrate and activate cell renewal. Beauty Therapy Treatments — 360 Skin Studio
