Welcome you beautiful being to the September edition of the Finchwood blog. Can you believe September is upon us which means the official start of Autumn is here and it’s the season of renewal and rejuvenation?!
I love Autumn, the change of colours in nature is stunning, lovely candle-lit evenings, cosy nights in front of the fire with the pup and a hot chocolate, I love it all. However, it can make taking care of your skin a little more challenging with things like a drop in temperature and, the air becomes dryer because inevitably, the central heating gets switched on. So how can you give your skin a glow-up in this season of renewal?
Well, wonderful reader, Autumn is absolutely the season for peels. Let’s get your skin glowing with my favourite Autumnal treatment – an Alumier Chemical Peel. The best bit about Alumier Chemical Peels is there isn’t just one, there are multiple options depending on your skin type and the outcome you want to achieve.
What is a chemical peel?
Let’s begin by understanding what a peel is. It is a treatment that works to remove your dead skin cells. The treatment removes your damaged and weakened skin cells (completely normal for everyone) and reveals your younger brighter skin cells underneath, giving you that radiant glow (after around 7 days).
The benefits of a chemical peel are;
✨Brighter looking skin
✨Improves appearance of scars
✨Improves appearance of acne
✨Fine lines and wrinkles are reduced
✨Appearance of blemishes are reduced
Alumier Chemical Peels can have amazing effects on your skin and they are suitable for almost everyone, you just need the advice of an expert like me and together we can choose the right peel for your skin.
Why is Autumn the perfect time to have a peel?
With summer coming to a close you will likely have made the most of the sunshine and absorbed it’s gorgeous rays and vitamin D, however in the process you may also have neglected the SPF or been a little relaxed with it and therefore the sun’s influence (damage) may now be showing on your skin in the form of discolouration, pigmentation, sun spots, or an uneven skin tone. It may even be feeling a little dry and dull due to too much sun exposure.
Of course summer is a time to be enjoyed, we often indulge more, travel more and fit in fun-filled activities and therefore can be a little lax with our skincare regime. This is why Autumn is the season of renewal and rejuvenation and is the perfect time to kick start that skincare regime and there is no better way to do it than with an Alumier Chemical Peel. A peel can help battle the damage of summer and our somewhat relaxed skincare regime and help improve your skin’s overall appearance.
It is also important to note that after a chemical peel, your skin can become more sensitive to UV rays and because Autumn means the suns rays are a little less powerful, it is the perfect time to book your peel.
What peels are on offer?
As I said at the start, I offer several different options when it comes to Alumier peels, which are dependant upon what you would like to achieve. The options I currently have on offer are;

With lactic and salicylic acid, this treatment contains a powerful combination of both which improves skin tone and texture by exfoliating dead skin cells and speeding up cell turnover. This multipurpose resurfacing peel reduces acne and pimples and minimizes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, large pores, hyperpigmentation and sun damage.
