Exfoliators & Polishes

Exfoliators & Polishes

 Exfoliation is key to clear, glowing skin because as we age the dead skin cells become more compact and the body is slower to shed skin cells and generate new ones. When the dead skin cells pole up it can leave the skin looking dull, rough and dry. Furthermore, it can result in excess oil and clogged pores, leading to blemishes and acne. Regular exfoliation allows the removal of that build up and allows better permeability of your moisturiser to be more effective rather than simply sit on the surface.

BESTSELLER Oxygen Face Polish

200ml

Crystal Clear’s fabulous, gentle Oxygen Polish is suitable for all skin types, especially problematic and sensitive skin. Containing the active ingredient Oxylastil, which is a known oxygen carrier and has excellent anti-bacterial properties while Jojoba beads gently exfoliate. Used daily, this radiance-restoring exfoliator buffs and smooths leaving the skin polishes, revitalised and rejuvenated.

Moisturising complex softens and limits moisture loss and helps cells to retain water while Vitamin E protects the skin. Oxygen polish is an all-round super skin buffer and you will become addicted to the fabulous polished feel to the skin even after the first application.

  • Radiance-restoring.
  • Vitamin E protects the skin.
  • Suitable for all skin types.

Last but not least Crystal Clear have included Matrixyl 3000 as it is hailed the wonder ingredient for its anti-ageing affect and we believe prevention is better than cure. It’s no surprise its one of Crystal Clear’s best-selling products.

Microdermabrasion In A Bag With Ionic Sonic Super Cleanse

3 simple steps to great looking skin.

May 3, 2020 by Sarah Dandy

Matis Paris, one of our amazing luxury skincare brands which was established in 1936 in Paris, celebrates the amazing win of 3 awards at the 2020 Beauty Shortlist Awards.

Cell Expert, the brand’s signature beauty elixir, won the Best Facial Elixir Award. Cell Expert, contains Matistem CC, a Matis-Exclusive active ingredient extracted form white rose stem cells which boosts cells regeneration and protects the skin’s stem cells.

Olea-Science, a serum that has always been a consumer-favourite, brought the Best Serum (Age 50+) award to the brand.  This care is concentrated in benefits and specifically designed for devitalized skin. The formula combines an active ingredient sourced from centennial Masticha trees found in the Greek island of Chios (targeted action on youth-building proteins) with precious oils (protective and regenerating action).

Linda Meredith: Your ‘At Home’ Treatment

April 4, 2020 by Sarah Dandy

Linda Meredith: Your ‘At Home’ Treatment

With many of us now spending more time at home and unable to visit a Spa or Clinic for our regular facial, Linda has outlined her personal ‘at-home’ facial routine. Beauty Fresh hopes that this will assist you all during this difficult time. So, rest assured, your regular skin maintenance needn’t stop now.

These simple, easy to follow regimes contain everything you need to experience a world famous Linda Meredith Knightsbridge facial at home. Suitable for the most discerning of clientele, these at-home sets will last similarly to a course of 6 ‘in clinic’ facials.

 

Haute Couture Facial

The benefits of the Haute Couture Facial include deep cleansing, re-surfacing, firming, hydrating, anti-ageing and nourishing.

FACIAL STEPS

Start your at home facial with a deep, thorough cleanse using Gel Cleanser. Follow with a fine layer of Enzyme Peel over the face and neck avoiding the eye area. Leave for 30 minutes and gently remove with warm water on fine skin or use like a facial scrub on thicker skin.

Now apply a generous layer of Hydrating Gel over the face and neck. Avoid lips and top eye lid. Leave until the product dries tight and remove with a dry face cloth or warm water. Make sure the skin is dry and with eyes closed spray Hydrating Mist over the entire face and neck

Phyto 4+ is the most versatile product in the entire range and the perfect next step. Apply over the face and neck spreading a small amount of excess up to the bottom lashes.

Finally spray Hydrating Mist once more and follow with application of your favourite moisturiser

The Do’s and Don’ts of taking supplements.

January 13, 2020 by Cheryl Clay

Many of you will have made a new year’s resolution to look after your health as well as your skin. Supplements help to achieve this goal, yet although 46% of the UK take them there is still some confusion about how to maximise absorption. Dr Cheryl Clay from Beauty Fresh has put together some top tips to keep skin glowing from the inside out.

The Do’s and Don’ts of taking supplements.

DO take food supplements with a main meal to aid absorption. It will usually contain some fats, which is particularly important for the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K.

DO take your supplements every day. There are no rules about the best time, if you are taking several you can split them up if you find this easier, otherwise taking them all at once (with your meal) is fine too.

DON’T take supplements with hot drinks, especially coffee or tea, as these contain compounds that interfere with absorption. In the case of probiotics heat can destroy the live microorganisms. Try to leave an hour’s gap before and after taking supplements before enjoying your hot drink.

DO break capsules apart and mix the powder into food or a cold drink if you have trouble swallowing them, but be sure to consume it straight way. The capsule protects ingredients sensitive to light and air, once it’s broken the protective factor is gone. Tablets can be crushed or broken in half but be careful that there are no sharp edges or it might irritate your throat on the way down.

Hydration is key

June 26, 2019 by Sarah Dandy

You can not under estimate how important it is to keep skin hydrated on a daily basis. The effects of anything else we use on our skin will be dramatically reduced if the skin isn’t hydrated in the first place. The products you use won’t penetrate correctly and therefore you won’t see the impressive results you’re after or maybe other people boast. Worse, you won’t notice much change to your skin.”

Hydrate all year round

A lot of people understand this but make the mistake of only applying it when it’s hot or when they’re travelling but Beauty Fresh is certain, “You need to look after your hydration every single day, all year round – it’s not just a summer thing. If you know any keen runners or you are one yourself, you’ll know they talk about hydrating the day before big races. If you are hydrated, your body feels better and can perform better. The same is true for your skin. If you’ve got an important day ahead or glamorous night out – hydrate well the day before and you’ll notice a sparkle. Your skin will feel lighter and brighter to you. And people will notice!”

What is your secret to keeping your skin hydrated?

Liquid intake is key

Cerys from Crystal Clear: “Obviously liquid intake is the most important thing. I drink a lot of cold water, love smoothies and protein shakes but people worry a lot about caffeine. Everyone has a contradicting theory but coffee or tea are still fine for hydration, as long as they’re not the main part of your liquid intake. As always, it’s about moderation.

Tonics & spritz will add to hydration

But if you want to go a little further – Crystal Clear Revitalising Tonic is a daily must throughout the year for me. It’s permanently on my desk, in my car, in my handbag! In the summer or on holidays I keep it in the fridge and use it as a hydrating spritz. It reduces any risk of suffering with dehydrated skin.”

So there you have it. Drink lots, and perhaps invest in a hydration tonic or spritz if you want to go a little further. We hope you’ve liked this skincare tip from the top.
