A water-based, fragrance-free formulation focused on soothing sensitive skin and providing anti-pollution protection. 

Focus Care Comfort+ Vita-Enriched Antioxidant Gel 

Key Benefits: Acts as an "anti-pollution system" to protect against environmental stressors and free radical damage. It has a cooling, moisturising effect that helps reduce inflammation.

Key Ingredients: High concentrations of Vitamins C and E, Beta-Carotene (a plant form of vitamin A), and Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5). It also includes Tea Tree Leaf Oil for its soothing and antimicrobial properties.

Usage: Apply to a cleansed and toned face and neck, morning and evening. It can be used alone or mixed with an Environ moisturiser. 

"Emergency" Relief: The Focus Care™ Comfort+ Vita-Enriched Antioxidant Gel is often used as a "rescue" product. It is highly effective for soothing sunburn, insect bites, or rashes due to its cooling and anti-inflammatory properties.

Anti-Pollution Shield: This same gel acts as a specialized anti-pollution system, protecting skin from environmental stressors (smoke, exhaust, chemicals) that cause premature ageing.

Evening routine
Repair

Similiar to AM routine, except rolling.
The aim is to roll every evening.
The main function of your skin is to protect against the outside world. Your skin is your largest organ, except its also your waterproof barrier & on the outside! Your skin tries to keep everything out, sun, pollution, viruses, bacteria etc.
One of the most important skin ingredients is Vitamin A, which plumps and keeps skin healthy. Healthy functioning skin keeps your barrier intact, and your skin cells compacted. But by doing this, which is what we want, your protuct ingredients dont pe*****te so this is where rolling comes in! Creating tiny little channels in the skin's surface, allowing the incredible ingredients to get in and do their thing!!
Some nights I'll change it up, but when im behaving myself ill..

The Environ RAD Antioxidant Sun Cream is a broad-spectrum daylight protection designed for daily face and body use. It is unique because it combines a "low-dose" of chemical (spf 4) and physical sun filters with a high concentration of antioxidants to neutralise free radicals caused by UV exposure.

Triple Protection: Uses a combination of sun reflectors (physical), absorbers (chemical), and antioxidants to defend against UVA and UVB rays.

Antioxidant Boost: Enriched with Vitamins C, E, and Beta-Carotene to enhance skin's natural defenses against photo-damage and environmental stress.

Broad-Spectrum SPF: Provides protection that is verified by the Swiss Vitamin Institute for quality and effectiveness.

Versatile Formula: Lightweight, creamy, and non-greasy texture that is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin and children over six months.

People ALWAYS argue that a high number on a suncream is more effective than a low number.
Number relates to UVB, which is the heat we feel on our skin when the sun is around. This doesn't effect us Irish between October & March (unfortunately..could be April, May..) UVA is around all year, & through clouds, windows. Broad spectrum spf is imperative, all the time. Also, you need to use a good amount of it to actually work.
3 finger lengths of product is a good idea for face, neck, chest.
Face, Apply from ni***es up!
Every 90mins to 120mins.
Swimming, towelling, sweating, sports, exercise, sun..all depletes the spf. So REAPPLY enough & often. 😘

Daily skincare

After prep, here's SOME of my absolute essentials, I add and swap depending on season, skin & mood!

*Environ Antioxidant gel.
Combats the effects of free radicals. Acts like an anti pollution system against environmental stressers. Great for sensitive, reactive skin, or if you just want to add more antioxidants to your skincare. Vitamin C & E, Beta carotene (plant form Vit A), Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5).

*Avance Elixir.
For 3 major signs of aging. Dehydration, pigmentation, wrinkles. 3 peptides, Matrixyl 3000, Trylagen, and Matrixyl Synthé 6. These smart little girls stimulate collagen and elastin production to improve skin structure and plump fine lines.
Mĕiritage: A unique blend of Chinese root extracts used in traditional medicine. It acts as a powerful antioxidant system to combat oxidative stress from UV radiation and pollution.

*Skin EssentiA avst
Vitamin A, C, E, step up system.
It does what you need it to do! If you dont use this, you need to start! Seriously, the benefits go on..
Viamin A is depleted by DAYLIGHT. So we NEED to replace it.
Anti-Ageing & Texture: Stimulates collagen and elastin production to visibly reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while improving skin firmness and elasticity.
Cellular Normalisation: Promotes healthy cell turnover, which helps "re-programme" skin cells to function more efficiently and repair environmental damage.
Tone & Pigmentation: Helps even out skin tone and reduces the appearance of sun damage and hyperpigmentation by normalising melanin production.
Blemish Control: Assists in managing acne and breakouts by regulating oil production from the sebaceous glands.
Hydration & Barrier Support: Enhances the skin's natural moisture levels and strengthens the outer barrier, leading to a radiant, healthy-looking glow.

*Retinol
Environ is Progression. As your skin needs more, we will add more! 😊

VitaPeptide eye gel
"The Goat". Again, if you use this, you know, if you dont use this, then yes, you need it! Does what it says on the tin. ❤️

*RAD spf
Low chemical, Antioxidant daily protection
Broad spectrum. Works. Use enough. Reapply regularly, every 90mins to 2hrs.

When you give yourself some extra time for skin health ✨️

Stage 1
Cleansing

*Precleanse oil
Always at night. Oil cuts through oil, so when you move onto your cleanser, you're Cleansing your skin and not the days build up of makeup, pollution, grime etc sitting on your skin.. (add in your guasha for some lymphatic drainage & massage)

*Cleanser
I change this depending on my skin, time of month etc. Some of my favourites are .ireland Hydra 4 cleanser Hydra Intense cleanser. Both can be used on sensitive, dry skins to help hydrate, nourish, and double as masks. Hydra Medic or sebuwash, when skin is breaking out, oily, congested.

Deep Cleansing/ gentle exfoliation
*Environ Clay mask
After Cleansing, apply 2 drop of pre cleanse oil, a good dollop of clay mask, and massage in until the mask 'splits', exfoliating your skin very gently without over doing it! Super healthy, soft skin follows, ready to absorb the next stage!

Stage 2
Toning / treating

I LOVE toners, maybe even have a little obsession..😉
Toners help balance and treat the skin. Soooo many to choose from, I usually have multiple ones on the go! 😁

Some of my favs..
*Environ Dermalac.
Lactic acid. Brightening. Hydrating. Exfoliating. I use at night, a few times per week. Skin is glowing in the morning.
*Environ VitaPeptide toner.
Our little besties..peptides ♥️
Messangers, chatting to your collagen, elastin, reminding them to perk up and wake up!
*Repêchage Hydra 4 & Algo mist. For mist o clock, on the go, travelling, handbag or car stash! Seaweed, hydrates, cooling, refreshing 😎 👌🏻

*Guashas, face massagers, ❤️

I change these or add other products when my skin needs something else, when travelling, trialing new bits etc.

When you need a little deeper cleansing / gentle exfoliation..
*Pre cleanse & remove (great time to guasha & massage the skin when oil is on)
*Reapply 2 drops of your precleanse oil, push into the skin, squeeze out some clay mask and massage it in, keep going until you see the clay mask splitting.
*Remove & continue with your routine ❤️
Glowing skin ✨️

Most people think self-tan dries the skin.
That’s only half the story.

Self-tan reacts with skin cells.
So when skin is dry or dehydrated, colour doesn’t just develop, it clings, darkens unevenly, and fades unpredictably.

Dry skin holds onto dead cells longer.
Those cells absorb more pigment, sit rigidly on the surface, and then shed faster.

That’s why tan looks darker on elbows, knees, and ankles, and why it fades badly there too.

This is where most self-tans go wrong.

The industry response is often aggressive exfoliation and fast-acting formulas designed for instant colour, not long-term skin health.
Quick payoff today. Compromised skin tomorrow.

At TanOrganic, we took a different approach from day one.
We formulated to hydrate, soften, and support the skin barrier while colour develops, so tan reacts with healthier, more flexible skin cells, not dry, brittle ones.

Because better tan isn’t about more pigment.
It’s about better skin to receive it.

Have you noticed your tan always looks darker and fades faster on drier areas?

(Noelle O Connor founder of Tan Organic.)

Repêchage Hyrda Dew Pure.. 💦

13/10/2025

From our mid-to-late 20s collagen production begins to slow down, with around 1% lost each year. By the time we reach our early 30s, this gradual decline becomes visible as fine lines, changes in texture. and reduced skin firmness. By 40s plus, its more. Skin changes every season, every birthday, with hormones, stress, lifestyle etc..

Microneedling is one of the most effective ways to stimulate your skin's natural repair process encouraging new collagen and elastin production from within. Over time, this rebuilds structure, smooths texture, and helps maintain a radiant, youthful glow.

Think of it as a scientifically backed way to future proof your skin, its not about erasing years overnight but about working with your body to preserve your skin intelligently and intentionally.

Book your microneedling treatment today and start your journey towards stronger, healthier, more luminous skin. ❤️
