10Years

7) What is your daily skin ritual?
I start with the ‘Bestow Cleansing Ritual’: in the morning, taking 3 deep breathes whilst soaking your skin with a warm muslin cloth. It hydrates my stratum corneum ready to hold that moisture in. I think about things I am grateful for and tell myself I will have an amazing day! Plump Start follows and then sometimes Crucial Moisture if I need a little extra moisture. In the evening I cleanse with Ultra cleanse from Synergie. Cleans my skin perfectly without leaving it feeling tight. Vitamin A serum then our sleepwear! I love the sleepwear! The smell, the feel, the active ingredients just make my skin glow.
8) What is your favourite product?
Plump Start – The radiance it gives you sets you up for the day.

Favourite treatment would be our Radiance Rescue using the the peel to the Firm and Lift with the tight Flaxx C mask it instantly firms and boosts the skin.
