Around 70% of my clients drift off into a deep state of relaxation — some snore, many enter a meditative state, and a few even release emotions through tears. Every response is welcome. If you find it hard to switch off, I gently guide you into presence by encouraging you to tune into the music or the rhythm of my hands. You’ll soon find yourself floating.

Yes, my facials are a beautiful and safe alternative to full-body massage during pregnancy. I use gentle, plant-based skincare and nurturing techniques that ease tension and promote calm. The only adaptation I make is avoiding foot massage, due to pressure points that may trigger early labour.  The bacial (back facial) treatment is also unsuitable for pregnant women.

Absolutely. I work with Tropic Skincare, a vegan, organic, plant-derived brand that is incredibly gentle yet effective. Many of my clients have sensitive or reactive skin, and I’ve never seen an adverse reaction. I also use Forest Essentials, a luxurious Ayurvedic brand with nourishing ingredients like saffron, jasmine, and sandalwood.

​

If you have any known allergies or sensitivities, please notify me in advance so I can prepare accordingly — I’ll happily check ingredient lists and make any necessary adaptations to ensure your facial is safe, soothing, and tailored to your needs.

I use two exceptional, ethical brands.

• Tropic Skincare – vegan, cruelty-free, organic and kind to all skin types.

• Forest Essentials – a luxurious Indian Ayurvedic brand known for its deeply nourishing oils, floral waters, and grounding aromas.

Together, they create a sensorial, results-driven experience.

Your facial time is always protected. I dedicate 15–20 minutes at the start for new clients to have a full holistic consultation. Treatments themselves range from 40 to 100 minutes, and you’ll always receive your full facial time, with chatting and questions left for before or after. I never rush your time with me.

To enhance your experience, I recommend arriving without makeup or jewellery. You’ll get the most from the facial if your hair is unwashed — this allows me to massage deeper into your scalp without restriction, enhancing the relaxing flow.

As this is a deeply personal and private experience, I recommend arriving solo. The treatment room is small and designed for one-to-one care.  If you are under 16, a parent or guardian must be present during your treatment and may sit in the room.

I warmly welcome clients of all genders, backgrounds, and skin types — whether you’re experienced with facials or brand new to skincare, you’ll receive a loving, professional, and non-judgmental experience.

However, for your safety, there are some situations where I may not be able to offer a treatment, or may need to adapt it with medical clearance. If any of the following apply to you, please let me know in advance so we can discuss the best next steps:

• You are currently undergoing treatment for cancer (facials can sometimes be adapted with your consultant’s consent or after active treatment ends)

• You have open wounds, cuts, or skin infections in the facial area (e.g. cold sores, impetigo)

• You have active conjunctivitis, styes or other contagious eye conditions

• You’ve recently had injectables (Botox, fillers) and are still within the healing window (usually 2 weeks or more)

• You’ve recently had a chemical peel, laser treatment, or microneedling (wait 10+ days)

• You have untreated or active cystic acne or severe rosacea flare-ups (mild cases can often be supported with gentle facials)

• You have a fever, flu, or contagious illness

• You are in your first trimester of pregnancy (facials are safest after 12 weeks, with some adaptations)

​

If you're unsure whether your current health or skin condition may affect your treatment, you're always welcome to reach out and I’ll guide you with care and honesty. Your safety, comfort, and wellbeing come first.

It’s rare, but possible. Facials stimulate cell turnover, which can bring underlying congestion to the surface faster — this may result in a small breakout that would have occurred anyway. For most clients, their skin feels smoother, more hydrated, and beautifully radiant within days.

Facials take place at Sunkissed Tanning and Beauty, 24 Barnet Road, Potters Bar, EN6 2QS.
There is paid parking one minute away in the Clayton Centre Car Park, or you can park at Tesco Superstore, Mutton Lane, which is free for up to 3 hours and a 5-minute walk away.

Appointments can be booked online up to 3 months in advance. I offer flexible slots during the week and weekends on Sundays. If you don’t see a time that suits you, please reach out and I will do my best to help.

Skin naturally renews itself every 6 weeks, so this is the ideal rhythm for ongoing facials. Regular treatments can create long-term change — clients often see a dramatic improvement in skin tone and texture after just 3 visits. I also offer discounted packages for those committed to long-term results and self-care. See Facial Packages
