The use of retinol in the warmer months as we come into spring.

This powerful ingredient is known for promoting cell turnover and enhancing skin texture, but it requires some precautions in the summer.

Retinol can make your skin more sensitive to the sun, increasing the risk of sunburn.

Always apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 daily, and remember to reapply if you're outdoors!

Consider reducing the frequency of retinol application during the summer months to every other night to minimise irritation. If you notice redness or peeling, scale back until your skin feels balanced again.

Have questions about using retinol in your summer routine? Our team at Shoal Aesthetics is here to help!

As the spring months are here, the importance of incorporating SPF into your daily skincare routine cannot be overstated.

With the sun's rays becoming more intense, UV radiation levels rise, increasing the risk of skin damage, premature aging, and even skin cancer.

UVA rays, which can pe*****te deep into the skin, are present year-round and contribute to collagen breakdown and photoaging. UVB rays, responsible for sunburn, are more intense in the spring and summer.

By applying a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily, you not only protect your skin from these harmful rays but also support its overall health and resilience.

Both tinted and untinted SPF products offer excellent protection, but they serve slightly different purposes. Untinted sunscreens provide a clear finish and are ideal for those looking for a lightweight, invisible barrier against UV exposure.

On the other hand, tinted SPF products contain mineral pigments that not only shield the skin from UV rays but also provide a natural-looking coverage that evens out skin tone. This dual-action benefit makes tinted SPF an excellent choice for daily wear, giving you an added layer of protection while enhancing your complexion.

Whichever option you choose, make sure to reapply every two hours for optimal protection!

Experience the benefits of skin needling, a minimally invasive treatment that improves your skin's texture and appearance.

By creating micro-injuries, it stimulates collagen production, leading to firmer and smoother skin.

When combined with active skin care products containing potent ingredients like retinoids and hyaluronic acid, you can maximise results and enhance rejuvenation.

Incorporating both skin needling and active skin care into your routine can address concerns like fine lines, acne scars, and uneven texture.

Medical grade chemical peels are advanced skincare treatments designed to improve the appearance of the skin through the application of chemical solutions. These peels can address a variety of skin concerns, including acne, hyperpigmentation, fine lines, and sun damage. Here are five key points to understand about medical grade chemical peels:

Depth of Treatment: Medical grade peels can vary in depth, from superficial to medium to deep, allowing for tailored treatments based on individual skin needs.
Professional Supervision: These peels are performed by a cosmetic nurse of 9 years, ensuring safety and effectiveness through a thorough assessment of skin type and condition.

Recovery Time: Depending on the depth of the peel, recovery times can vary, with superficial peels requiring minimal downtime, while deeper peels may necessitate a longer healing period.

After undergoing a medical grade chemical peel, it is essential to adhere to a proper aftercare regimen to maximise results and promote optimal healing.

The skin may experience some redness, peeling, or sensitivity post-treatment, and it is crucial to avoid sun exposure and harsh skincare products during this time.

Gentle cleansing, moisturising, and the application of broad-spectrum sunscreen will help protect the skin and enhance recovery.

Additionally, staying hydrated and avoiding strenuous activities that may cause excessive sweating can further support the healing process.

At Shoal Aesthetics, we understand the importance of choosing the right cleanser for your skin type and concerns. Many people often find themselves torn between cream cleansers and gel cleansers, and today, we want to highlight the benefits of a cream cleanser.

1. Hydration Boost: Cream cleansers are formulated with moisturising ingredients that help retain the skin's natural moisture barrier. This makes them an excellent choice for those with dry or sensitive skin, as they cleanse without stripping away essential oils.

2. Gentle on the Skin: The creamy texture of these cleansers tends to be much gentler compared to gel cleansers, which can be more abrasive. This means less irritation and redness, ensuring that your skin feels calm and soothed after cleansing.

3. Effective Makeup Removal: Cream cleansers are often more efficient at breaking down makeup and impurities, particularly for waterproof formulas. This allows for a thorough cleanse without the need for excessive scrubbing.

4. Suitable for All Skin Types: While gel cleansers can sometimes be too harsh for certain skin types, cream cleansers are versatile. They can be beneficial for oily, combination, and even acne-prone skin when formulated correctly.

5. Balanced pH Levels: Many cream cleansers are designed to maintain the skin's natural pH balance, which is critical for overall skin health. This helps to prevent issues such as over-drying or excessive oiliness.
