Skinx Beauty

Let’s get to know Heidi a little better. 🤍

Heidi is the founder and heart behind SkinX. As a qualified Aesthetician and Somatologist, she combines expertise with genuine care, creating a space where every client feels confident, comfortable, and truly looked after.

✨ What inspired you to become an aesthetician?
I’ve always been fascinated by the skin and how it works. The more I learned, the more passionate I became about helping people understand their skin and achieve their goals through the right treatments. 🤍

🌟 What’s the most common skincare mistake you see clients making?
Jumping into advanced treatments before strengthening their skin barrier. I also see people buying products because of TikTok instead of choosing what’s actually right for their skin.🙈

☕ What does a typical day outside of the salon look like?
I love spending time with family and friends, exploring new places, and being outdoors. My favourite way to unwind? A Sunday afternoon nap with my cat. 🐱🤍

💕 What’s your favourite part about helping clients achieve their skin goals?
Watching their confidence grow. Seeing someone feel happier in their own skin is the most rewarding part of what I do. ✨

🏝️ If you could have one treatment every month for free, what would it be?
Microneedling and radio frequency - without a doubt! They’re incredible for collagen stimulation and ageing gracefully. Although... I wouldn’t say no to a monthly massage either. 💆‍♀️😂

🐱 Dogs or Cats?
Cats... but honestly, all animals! 🐾

☕ Coffee or Tea?
Coffee. Every single time. 🤎

🌊⛰️Beach or Mountains?
Summer = Beach ☀️
Winter = Mountains ⛰️

Nothing beats a girls’ catch-up that turns into a little self-care moment 🤍💅

A pedicure date is the perfect excuse to slow down, laugh a little louder, and leave feeling refreshed together ✨

Tag your bestie and make it happen at SkinX - because self-care is always better when it’s shared 🤍

Get to know Jana-Mari a little better 🤍

Meet Jana-Mari, our part-time somatologist while she completes her additional year in Medical Aesthetics at ISA. She is deeply passionate about skin health and is always expanding her knowledge in advanced treatments to ensure every client receives the very best care.

We asked her a few fun questions so you can get to know the face behind the treatment room a little more:

• What made you fall in love with skincare?
Seeing how much confidence can grow when someone finally feels comfortable in their own skin, and being part of that journey.

• What is your favourite treatment to perform?
Microneedling 🤭 I could spend hours mesmerised by the movement of the pen.

• What skin concern do you love treating the most?
PIH and reactive, acne-prone skin. There’s something so rewarding about restoring the skin barrier.

• Coffee or matcha before a full day in clinic?
Coffee, definitely! Especially if it’s a Plato cappie 🥹

• Your current favourite skincare ingredient?
Niacinamide - your barrier-supporting, calming, all-round skin bestie 🤩

• Dream aesthetic treatment to master one day?
Carboxytherapy… it’s SO cool.

• One skincare tip you swear by?
“SPF every day!” but also: slow and steady wins the skin race. Don’t overwhelm your skin with too many actives at once.

• One thing clients would be surprised to know about you?
I read ingredient lists for fun… I can spend hours in Clicks or Dis-Chem reading product labels 🙃

• Favourite way to unwind after a long clinic day?
Hot shower, comfy clothes, good food, and switching my brain off with Criminal Minds 🤭

Let’s get to know Nadine a little better… 🤍

If you’ve ever sat in Nadine’s chair, you’ll know she’s more than just a nail technician - she’s your nail bestie, bringing creativity, precision, and a genuine love for helping people feel their best. 💅✨ As a qualified Somatologist, she takes a holistic approach to beauty and self-care too.

A few fun facts about Nadine:

🍷 Favourite way to relax after work?
A hot shower, comfy clothes, a good series, and a glass of wine.

🐎 Hidden talent?
She’s actually really good at horse riding!

🤍 Favourite nail colour of all time?
A classic milky white or a bold red - timeless, elegant, and always confidence-boosting.

💅 Short and classy or long and bold?
Both! It all depends on the mood. A clean, classy set is just as beautiful as a bold statement set.

✨ What inspired her to become a nail technician?
A love for beauty and creativity. She enjoys transforming something simple into something beautiful.

👀 One trend she thinks is overrated?
Super over-the-top designs... and wedding ombré nails. 🙈

🫶 What does she love most about her clients?
The conversations, the laughs, the trust, and the small part she gets to play in their lives. Because it’s always about so much more than just nails. 🤍

So, why does everyone book microneedling in winter? 👀

Because winter gives your skin the perfect opportunity to heal and regenerate while sun exposure is generally lower.

Microneedling works by stimulating your body’s natural collagen production, helping to improve skin texture, reduce the appearance of scars, soften fine lines, and reveal healthier-looking skin over time.

Think of it as giving your skin a fresh start this season. ✨

If glowing, healthy skin is on your winter wishlist, this treatment might be exactly what you’re looking for. 🤍
