PLUMP THE SKIN

Fillers are often administered to the skin to deliver a plumper and more volumized appearance. Made with hyaluronic acid, fillers, once injected into the skin will lift, smooth and also help to soften fine lines.

At-Home Alternative:

The Hyaluronic Acid Aqua Booster increases the moisture levels in the skin topically, by delivering a burst of concentrated hydrating ingredients to the skin that will overcome both dryness and dehydration. Due to the low-molecular weight of Hyaluronic Acid, the ingredient is able told up to 1000x its weight in water, meaning your complexion will be met with both moisturising and hydrating properties. Applied in clean the booster will target the surface layers but also work deep into the dermis to instantly volumize and plump the skin.

MESOTHERAPY

A minimally invasive treatment that involves the use of superfine needles being injected into the skin to deliver a cocktail of vitamins, minerals and amino acids to instantly improve dull, tired and lacklustre skin.

At-Home Alternative:

Whilst our treatment range is inspired by Mesotherapy, both the Meso Infusion Leave on Hydration Mask and Meso Infusion Leave on Overnight Mask work in conjunction with one another as a day and night mask offering 24 hours of concentrated hydration. Providing a unique amino acid complex that not only fights aggressors but both plumps, hydrates, brightens and protects the skin in a one-step application.

BOTOX

With a toxin that is injected into the natural lines formed by facial expressions, Botox relaxes the muscles in the face to smooth out any lines and wrinkles (especially crow’s feet and fine lines).

 

At-Home Alternative:

Mimicking the effects of Botox, our Celestial Black Diamond Contour Gel is used like the tip of a Botox needle. The peptide-packed treatment has been expertly formulated to focus on deep-set lines and wrinkles that can sit around the expression lines of the face. For a lift, massage the gel in an upward motion on the areas of concern and to target stubborn lines and wrinkles, work the treatment gel into the skin with concise circular motions using the applicator. Your areas of concern will be left looking smoother and feeling plumper and revived.

Similarly, our Meso Infusion Overnight Micro Mask delivers two performative and highly sought-after ingredients, Vitamin C and Hyaluronic acid. The science comes in through the innovative technology that provides each patch with 150 micro cones of pure Hyaluronic acid and Vitamin C to guarantee 100% product absorption. Gently piercing the skin’s barrier, the formula will penetrate the skin at 0.3mm and dissolve the formula under the skin. Skin will be left with diminished fine lines, wrinkles and a plumper but brighter looking complexion.

LIP FILLERS

Involving the injection of the dermal layer, silicone fillers are injected into the lips to plump, lift and alter their appearance.

At-Home Alternative:

Our Meso Infusion Lip Duo is designed to both volumize and retexturize the lips with a two-step unique system. Step one encourages the natural production of collagen and hyaluronic acid which will plump, contour and condition the lips whilst step 2 seals in the formula whilst helping to stimulate microcirculation offers a plumper and nourished finish.

FACIAL LIFT

Whether due to lacklustre or sagging the skin, the complexion can look withdrawn and essentially pre-age the skin. Combatting this, a face lift can lift the skin and immediately takes years away as a result.

At-Home Alternative:

Train, tighten and tone your facial muscles with a facial massager. The kit that has been expertly customised between 2 experts within the skincare field, Dr Yannis Alexandrides and Joanna Czech is to tighten, tone and lift the skin in a matter of moments. Leaving face lifts behind, The Facial Edit is designed to transform, treat and trigger extraordinary aesthetic results within the confinements of your own home.

If you were to advise a London guide, what would be on your list?

Well, As I grew up in Notting Hill, it will always have my heart and if I was recommending spots in London, a wander around Notting Hill would be high up on my list. From there it would be all the best shopping destinations, the iconic private members club, Annabels, Harrods and Liberty’s for any cute and unique gifts. I would always pop into 111CRYO at Harrods for the Cryo Facial and treatment for the ultimate recharge. Sometimes the city is great, but the beautiful secrets of the English countryside is something that should be experienced.

Your In-Flight Essentials?

I don’t have a routine per say and I am certainly not as thorough as Naomi Campbell but I would apply the Meso Infusion Lip Duo and I would always wipe my phone down with anti-bacterial wipes, in fact I do this every day, the bacteria build up is no good for the skin.

In terms of Industry, where do you see the hair industry going?

Well Instagram has changed so much and has impacted the way we consume and learn within the industry, especially with so many creatives, but I still find that a massive amount of people come to the professionals to share the knowledge on how to carry out or complete a desired look, more than ever there is power behind ‘how-to’ videos.

A very valid point and in terms of 2020?

In terms of what we are to see in 2020, things are going to be super creative and we will see a wider awareness for people doing their own thing and it will be expressive and artistic. People will move away from the overtly glamorous looks and will create looks they can tailor to their everyday. As it’s currently Award Season which is the busiest time of the year leading up to the Met Ball, hairstyles are certainly more elaborate, and everyone loves an up do. I would say the most timeless look has to be the blunt bob, it comes around year on year, but it is effortless and timeless.

Outside of hair, what other industries are you into?

I am hugely into Interiors and I would describe my style as 60s/70s glamour, think elaborate and dramatic but I often fantasise about 80s Dallas and Joan Collins and I have to reign myself in. I also love Baking; it is the ultimate way to relax and I find that it is my meditation and therapy. If I’m in the USA I would bake a lot of cookies as everyone is obsessed with then over here and in the UK, I would bake more traditional styles like a lemon tart or an apple tart – it allows for me to be creative outside of my job.

Finally, the best advice you have ever received?

It would have to be from my grandfather, he would often say to me “it’s not how well you’re doing but how well people think you’re doing”. I haven’t successfully implemented it however you can look to Instagram today and people see our work and are blown away by it, but we can be so hard on ourselves and not appreciate our own work ourselves.
