Question - I have deep wrinkles on my forehead, what serum is best for me? @skinceuticals.

Answer - A combination of skin care will help this skin condition combined with in clinic treatments. Botox is an option to reduce the wrinkles quickly.

Retinol would be a good treatment. Retinol is a powerhouse anti-ageing ingredient. Incorporating retinol into your skin care routine in your early 20s is a great way to begin prevention. Its never too late to experience the benefits of retinol. It is the most researched antiaging ingredient, and recognised as the gold standard.

But don’t forget the major key pillars of anti-ageing ingredients. In addition to retinol look for ferulic acid (we always include both as standard), vitamin c, hyaluronic acid, alpha and beta hydroxy acids (Glycolic wash by SkinCeuticals) Always use a sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher.

We appreciate that it is not possible to be able to do a clinic facial, at home. Be assured that if you are using the right products with the correct levels of active ingredients you can achieve really nice results. Important to note that what you do every day can have a big impact on your skin long-term again if you are using the right skincare.

Spend time cleaning your skin.

Your skin tissues are made up of water, proteins, and fats. When your skin losses water or fats, it becomes rough, itchy, and dry.

The vagus nerve (also known as the 10th cranial nerve or CN X) is a very long nerve that originates in the brain stem and extends down through the neck and into the chest and abdomen. It carries both motor and sensory information, and it supplies innervation to the heart, major blood vessels, airways, lungs, esophagus, stomach, and intestines.

While there are actually two vagus nerves (the left and the right), doctors usually refer to them together as “the vagus nerve.”

The vagus nerve helps control several muscles of the throat and of the voicebox. It plays a major role in regulating the heart rate and keeping the gastrointestinal tract in working order. The vagus nerves also carry sensory information from the internal organs back to the brain

Cold water therapies stimulate the vagus nerve as does singing and gargling . 

Pregnant women often wonder about which skincare products are ok to use and which ones are not —here is some  help!

Because some ingredients — both from prescription drugs and some skincare products — are absorbed into the body when applied to skin, it's important to know what's safe for use during pregnancy and what to avoid.

For many, anxiety is high and you may have slipped out of your old, healthy routines and self care habits.

Being truly healthy and happy is not just about eating all the right things and spending half your life exercising.


Emotional, mental and social health is a vital part of true wellness too.

Atmospheric aggressors surround us on a daily basis, posing a constant threat to healthy-looking skin, because they induce free radical formation that may damage cells.

Superficially, this damage visibly manifests as premature lines, wrinkles, sagging, and unwanted discolouration.
