What touches your skin

The products I use

I read every label before it enters my kit. What you'll find is clean, botanical, cruelty-free skincare — and what you won't find matters just as much.

Botanical serums, clay masks and a jade roller laid out on linen

Plant-first formulas

Cold-pressed oils, botanical extracts and fruit enzymes over harsh synthetics.

Never on my shelf

No synthetic fragrance, drying alcohols, sulfates, parabens or mineral oil.

Barrier-safe strength

Actives used at effective but respectful levels, layered rather than stacked.

Cruelty-free & small batch

Sourced from independent, ethical makers in recyclable glass wherever possible.

In my kit

Step by step through a facial

01

Cleansers

A double cleanse that removes SPF and makeup without stripping the barrier. The milky option is my go-to for reactive skin.

  • Camellia & oat cleansing balm
  • Green tea gel cleanser
  • Milky calendula cleanser

02

Exfoliation

Fruit enzymes do most of the work here. Acids only appear where the skin has told me it can handle them.

  • Pumpkin & papaya enzyme peel
  • Rice powder polish
  • 5% lactic acid gel

03

Masks

Chosen per zone — often clay across the T-zone and honey through the cheeks in the same facial.

  • French green clay detox
  • Honey & oat calming mask
  • Hydro-jelly cooling mask

04

Serums & actives

Layered from thinnest to richest, always sealed with an oil so the hydration actually stays put.

  • Stabilised vitamin C (THD ascorbate)
  • Multi-weight hyaluronic acid
  • Niacinamide 5%
  • Bakuchiol elixir

05

Massage & oils

The medium for gua sha and lymphatic work. Non-comedogenic, fast-absorbing, and beautifully quiet in scent.

  • Jojoba & rosehip facial oil
  • Squalane slip oil
  • Arnica neck & jaw balm

06

Finish & protect

Every facial ends with barrier support and, for daytime appointments, a mineral SPF that sits well under makeup.

  • Ceramide barrier cream
  • Mineral SPF 30 fluid
  • Peptide eye gel

Have an allergy or a product you love?

Tell me before your appointment and I'll build the facial around it — or work with your own products if you prefer.
