Skin Shed Newport

Sometimes the smallest shifts in perspective can change the way we care for ourselves completely.

It’s not just “having” to wear SPF but getting to protect our skin. It’s not “I need to fight ageing” but “I want to preserve my skin health for as long as I can.”

So much of skincare is marketed through fear, pressure, or the idea that we constantly need correcting, but caring for your skin can also come from a place of gratitude and love.

One of the the healthiest things we can change isn’t our skin, but also the way we speak to ourselves about it ☀️

Would you try this new treatment? 😍

I’ve loved testing this new Bio-Meso PDRN treatment on both myself and my client Ali, and I’ve already seen beautiful results on my own skin.

The treatment uses microscopic “spicules” to create channels in the skin, helping to:

🤎 Improve skin texture & promote collagen synthesis
🤎 Even out skin tone & improve blemishes
🤎 Promote skin renewal
🤎 Enhance ceramide production
🤎 Deeply hydrate & repair
🤎 Restore a healthy, natural glow
🤎 Support our skin’s natural microbial defenec

It’s also a safe, pain-free alternative to microneedling (equivalent to the depth of 1mm microneedling), and triggers a controlled inflammatory response without the pain and needles.

It’s so much quicker to apply too, along with reduced down-time — a win-win all round.

If you’re curious about this treatment, drop any questions below or book a consultation with me (link in bio) to see if this is the right treatment for your skin ✨

Thinking about booking in a skin consultation? ✨

This is the perfect place to start your skin journey: a 45-minute chat about you, your skin, the products that you’re using, and the concerns or problems you’ve been facing.

We’ll work together to develop a plan — whether that’s introducing new treatments or home-use products — that work for you and your skin, and actually make sense for your lifestyle. ☺️

Consultations are the perfect starting point before booking in for Environ treatments, dermaplaning, Korean skincare, or just general enquiries to start your skincare journey.

They’re £30 and the cost can be redeemed against any future treatment or product. 🤎

Just comment “SKIN JOURNEY” and I’ll send the booking link straight to your DMs to get started.

I’ve been in the skin health and beauty industry for over 20 years, and the things that *really* matter haven’t changed much.

Trends come and go, but the principles of how we care for our skin stay very much the same — things like hydration, consistency, realistic routines, and patience.

It’s easy to think that results are achieved overnight with the “right product”, but understanding what’s actually right for your skin can take time, especially when you’re truly focused on repairing, protecting, and preserving.

If you’d like a personalised plan to improve your skin or you’re interested in targeted treatments, pop me a DM or click the link in my bio and let’s work out a plan that works for YOU. 🤍

THE 10-STEP ROUTINE — EXPLAINED PROPERLY 🤎

There’s a lot of value in this Korean skincare philosophy, and while there’s value in it, it’s often misunderstood.

The idea isn’t *just* to use more products — it’s to layer hydration, support the skin barrier, and target concerns properly.

For most people, a smaller number of well-chosen steps will always do more than 10 random ones.

This is also the philosophy behind the range I use in the Skin Shed — rooted in Korean skincare principles that focus on layering, skin health, and long-term results rather than quick fixes.

Skin health doesn’t come from doing everything, but from doing the right things consistently.

And if you’re not sure what your skin actually needs, that’s where personalised guidance makes all the difference ✨

Just drop me a DM if a skincare or skin treatment consultation sounds like the right next step for you. 🤍

If your morning skincare routine looks identical to your nighttime routine... you might want to swipe through! ✨

Although some things always stay the same, like cleansing, toning, moisturising and peptide serums, the way we care for our skin between morning and night should be intrinsically different.

In the day, we’re looking to protect the skin as much as possible from things like UV rays and other elements, but at night we have time to really nourish and repair the skin, using products like hydrating oil capsules or collagen-boosting face masks — and that’s where we start to see real results. 🙏🏼

If you’ve got any questions about building a routine that really works for your skin or the range of products I stock in the Skin Shed, comment ROUTINE and I’ll drop you a DM. 🥰

6 skincare myths I see all the time in the Skin Shed… and why they’re holding your skin back 🫶🏼

Skincare isn’t about quick fixes, stronger products, or copying someone else’s routine. It’s about understanding YOUR skin and what it actually needs.

From internal factors like gut health and hormones, to external changes like seasons and sun exposure, your skin is constantly responding and adapting.

If you’ve been feeling confused, overwhelmed, or like nothing is quite working, you’re not alone. Most people have just been given the wrong information.

If you’d like help understanding your skin properly, pop me a DM to chat or book a consultation via the link in my bio. 🤍

We’re only 5 WEEKS away from warmer days, longer hours, and a sense of excitement in the air — finally spring!! 🌸✨🌼

But if your skin is really struggling with the British winter weather, these tips should help you keep going in simple, accessible ways, setting the groundwork before the seasons change.

From a routine of daily SPF, to adding humidity into your home, or using your face moisturiser on dry lips, I hope these tips show that caring from your skin doesn’t have to be complicated.

And if you’re needing personalised guidance, product recommendations, or some extra TLC, comment “SPRING” and we’ll chat about what the right next step for you might be. 🥰

A little introduction 👋🏼

I’m Marian — skin specialist and the face behind the Skin Shed.

I’ve spent over 20 years working with skin, and what I care about most is helping people feel comfortable and confident in theirs — without trends, pressure, or quick fixes.

Everything I do comes back to skin health: protecting it, repairing it when needed, and preserving it for the long term.

If you’re feeling confused by skincare, overwhelmed by choice, or just want a more guided, honest approach — you’re very welcome here 🤍

Every winter, I see the same skin concerns come up — dryness, sensitivity, flare-ups, premature ageing.

And almost always, it’s not because someone’s skin is “problematic”.

It’s because their routine hasn’t shifted with the season.

Cold air, indoor heating, poor hydration and reduced daylight all change how your skin behaves — which means your skincare needs to adapt too.

This breaks down the most common winter skincare mistakes I see every year, and the simple swaps that genuinely protect skin long-term.

If you’d like a more guided, personalised approach this winter, you’re very welcome to get in touch to book a consultation — or comment WINTER and I’ll pop you a DM to start chatting. 🥰
