Hi there,
Someone asked me the other day what the difference is between Obagi and Medik8 skincare, and I thought it was worth sharing the answer with you too. I sell both in clinic, but they do quite different jobs.
Obagi Skincare: This is the strong stuff. It's designed to fix bigger skin problems like pigmentation, sun damage and stubborn breakouts. Some Obagi products need a prescription, and your skin can go red and peely for a few weeks before it settles and starts looking better. Because of that, I'll always keep a close eye on you while you're using it. It also has a higher price tag.
Medik8 Skincare: This is the gentler, everyday option. The idea is really simple: vitamin C in the morning, vitamin A (retinol) at night, and sunscreen every single day. It works more slowly, but it's kinder to your skin and easy to stick to long term.
In short: Obagi is the intensive fix. Medik8 is the steady daily routine.
Not sure which one is right for you? That's exactly what a skin consultation is for. Drop me a message and I'll d point you in the right direction.

P.S. If you live near me (Bicester, Aylesbury and the villages in between), here are three ways I can help:
  • In-clinic consultation. No pressure. Tell me what's bothering you, and I'll tell you honestly what I'd do. Skin treatments. If you want results faster than home care alone. Injectable treatments that refresh, never look fake. Every treatment is carried out by me, a nurse with over 14 years' experience.

Hi there,
A quick heads up: I'm taking Medik8 facials off my menu and replacing them with Medik8 peels (end of November).
I love a facial as much as anyone, but let's face it, they're more of a treat than a treatment. They feel lovely, but they don't do a great deal for your skin long term.
My clinic is all about results, so I'm focusing on treatments that genuinely improve your skin over time, like gentle skin peels, microneedling, skincare which all enhance any injectable treatments
Microneedling & peels done as a course, work on texture, tone, pigmentation and fine lines, and you'll actually see the difference over time rather than a facial

Hi there,
Christmas skin panic? Not this year.
Leave your skin until the last minute and you end up panic-booking, going red and blotchy, and hiding under foundation all night.
Start now instead. Medik8 Crystal Retinal smooths lines, brightens dull skin and evens out tone, and right now get 25% off your first order using code WELCOME25. Shop Crystal Retinal.
MY 3 QUICK TIPS
  • Start this week. Your skin needs a few weeks to adjust to vitamin A. Start now and you'll see results by December.
  • Pick the right strength. New to retinoids? Start on Crystal Retinal 3. Super sensitive skin? Start on 1. Use it three nights a week to begin with, and wear SPF every morning, no excuses.
  • Nothing new in the last week. No new products, no new treatments. Keep your skin calm.
Don't leave it until the last minute.
