Ask team #SkinAndSanctuary - Meet Vicki

Meet Vicki-Alana McNulty, Skin & Sanctuary’s Senior Aesthetician

Why did you choose Aesthetics?

My passion for Aesthetics came very early on in my beauty therapy career. Whilst working at The Lanesborough a large amount of the treatments i carried out were facials. I did them using a very high end cosmetic brand but became frustrated with the fact that unfortunately for so many clients with problematic skin concerns the ingredients did not deliver results which meant the treatments I carried not were not enough to really make a significant change. I am very much a results person, and with that if I’m not confident enough that the products or the treatments I use deliver the performance needed I will not recommend or carry them out. So a full education and experience in Aesthetic treatments became a necessity - and the true skincare journey began.

Your must do lockdown #skincaretip:

“Double Cleansing! Making sure your skin is clean and prepped is absolute key to allowing you to achieve any results regardless of what it is you are treating”

And must have lockdown #skincareproduct

“1000% do not forget SPF. It is THE BEST for preventative anti-ageing. Even though it’s February, grey outside and we’re stuck indoors we still need protection from those UVA rays. My personal favourite is Heliocare 360 Oil Free Gel SPF 50 (Beige). I love it because it's lightweight and the subtle tint gives me a glow, making me feel like I’m making an effort even if it’s for visiting my front room!
