I hope everyone had time for heaps of fun and peace over the Easter weekend. It was quite special to have a long weekend.
The team at Skin & Sanctuary love what we do but there is something very special and refreshing about four days with friends and family - particularly with the addition of food and a bit too much chocolate.
Now, as we welcome April and feel the love and freshness of Spring, it's time to turn to the experts for guidance.
Starting with our wonderful Lead Aesthetician, Fatma Gunduz, who, in her own completely giving and caring way, whittled down that fabulous knowledge to select her top two treatments and skincare products for the season.
Starting with Fatma’s favourite Skin Treatments
Jet Set Glow: A Quick Spring Pick-Me-Up.
First up on Fatma's list of spring essentials is our Jet Set Glow, a signature facial designed to give your skin an instant freshness.
Great for any time that your skin is in need of a little perk and perfect for those busy days leading up to a holiday getaway or a weekend break. This express facial, often overlooked but oh-so-effective, is tailored to prep your skin for whatever adventure lies ahead.
Jet Set Glow is a breeze to fit into even the tightest of schedules, taking just 30 to 40 minutes and costing £75. It starts with a thorough cleanse, followed by hydradermabrasion and exfoliation using the Hydrafacial® system to reveal smoother, brighter skin. Next comes an oxygen mask to combat city pollution and dullness while you enjoy a relaxing shoulder and neck massage. Finally, your skin is treated to antioxidant protection and SPF, leaving you ready to take on the world with a radiant glow.
Price: £75
LED Therapy: Harnessing the Power of Light
For those seeking targeted skincare solutions, Fatma highly recommends our LED therapy treatments.
Whether you're battling inflamed acne, dullness, or redness, LED therapy offers a gentle yet effective way to help address a variety of skin concerns.
Our Dermalux Flex® LED Light Therapy takes LED treatment to the next level, harnessing precise wavelengths of light to stimulate the skin's natural regenerative processes. From acne to signs of ageing to rosacea, this non-invasive therapy delivers visible results without any downtime. With single sessions starting at £65 and packages available, it's a versatile and accessible option for achieving a luminous, spring fresh complexion.

Fatma’s Spring Skin-Care Favourites
No spring skincare regimen would be complete without the essential products to nourish and safeguard your skin. Though it was no easy feat, Fatma has singled out her top two favourites:
Alto Defense and Repair Serum by Skin Better Science: This antioxidant powerhouse goes beyond the basics to provide comprehensive environmental defence.With 17 additional antioxidants, it helps improve skin brightness, redness, and overall tone and texture, making it ideal for those in their mid-thirties and beyond.
Price £130
Clinisoothe Skin Purifier: A staple in Fatma's skincare arsenal, this purifying spray protects the skin barrier from pollutants and impurities while promoting rapid recovery. Perfect for helping to address acne, rosacea, eczema, and inflammation, it's the ultimate companion for freshly cleansed, spring-ready skin.
Price: £20 (Spray £15)
I must admit, it was somewhat unfair of me to task Fatma with condensing her vast skincare expertise into just two treatments and two products.I knew she would to her best to select those that would benefit almost all - regardless of age, gender, skin type or tone. Yet, as Fatma reminds us, every skin is unique. So, for personalised recommendations tailored to your specific needs, book a consultation with Fatma or any of our expert clinicians.
