Fragrance-free vs Unscented

This is one of those label distinctions that genuinely matters and once you know it you will never look at a product the same way again.

Fragrance-free means exactly what it says. No fragrant ingredients have been added to the formulation at all. If something smells faintly of its base ingredients, eg clinical smell - that’s just what the raw materials smell like. Nothing has been added to create or alter that scent.

Unscented sounds like the same thing. It is not the same thing. Unscented means the product has no detectable scent but the way brands achieve that is often by adding masking fragrances. Ingredients specifically designed to neutralise the natural smell of the formula. So you can’t smell anything, but there are still fragrant compounds in there.

Why does this matter? Because fragrance, including those masking agents, is one of the most common causes of skin sensitivity and contact dermatitis. It’s not that fragrance is completely awful, plenty of people use fragranced products with no issue. But if you have reactive, sensitive, or compromised skin and you’re trying to eliminate potential irritants, unscented does not protect you the way fragrance-free does.

So if your skin is sensitive and you’re specifically looking to avoid fragrance, you need to look for fragrance-free on the label - not unscented. And ideally check the ingredient list as well because marketing language and formulation reality are not always the same thing.

Alternatively, ask an expert 🙋🏻‍♀️

I’m forcing myself to post this…
If you’ve been following the last few weeks you’ll know that I am taking part in the Higher Up Wellness Challenge where I film and post a 60 second video and post the first attempt, try to limit any filler words and the aim is to become more confident talking to the camera and articulating what I want to say.

Now this video would usually be a first attempt FAIL. I would have stopped half way when I knew it wasn’t going well and re-recorded. In an ideal world I would have packed way more facts and information into a video like this, as getting a clear message and educating is always my main focus.

However I am committed to the challenge, I had no prep, no script and I just talked about something off the top of my head for just over 60 seconds. It’s not a very informative video, I go off on a bit of a tangent and I pause for what, at the time felt like 5 years 😂
And I’m posting it anyway, I’m showing up despite feeling uncomfortable and vulnerable.

So, perhaps you didn’t learn anything about peptides watching this but hopefully if you’ve got this far down reading my caption, then you’ve learnt it’s ok to step outside of your comfort zone and show up anyway. The perfectionist in me is realising that growth can happen when you allow yourself to ‘fail’ and self reflect. 🤍

For JUNE & JULY ✨
I am running something this June and July that I genuinely think is worth your attention.
A virtual skin consultation with me - where we look at what your skin actually needs, cut through the noise of what you’ve been sold, and build a plan that makes sense for you specifically.
And to make it even easier to commit to, I’m offering fifty pounds off your product recommendations when you book. So you get the consultation, you get a personalised plan, and then fifty pounds comes straight off the products I recommend to go with it.
No guesswork. No wasted money on things that aren’t right for your skin. Just a clear plan, with real support behind it.
This is available throughout June and July only and to claim it, all you need to do is DM me the word SKIN. That’s it. I’ll take it from there.
Your skin deserves more than trial and error. Let’s actually sort it. 🤍

T’s & C’s apply.

Let’s talk about things non-skincare enthusiasts say that make me twitch!

“I wash my face with soap and water”
“I don’t need SPF, I don’t really go outside.”
“I tried a retinol once and my skin freaked out so I’ll never use it again.”

Look, I am not here to tell anyone how to live. But if you’re coming to me for advice, just know that my eye twitch has a trigger and these phrases are it 😂

If you say any of these…we need to talk!!

I only listed a few but there are loads! I’d love to hear yours…? 🤍

Why confidence and skincare are more connected than people admit..

People sometimes frame skincare as vanity but the truth is, I have watched people’s entire energy shift when their skin improves. Not because they suddenly looked dramatically different to everyone else in the room. But because they stopped thinking about their skin. That mental space that was taken up by self-consciousness, checking reflections, avoiding certain lighting, dreading certain situations - that space freed up. And what filled it was just…Confidence. Being in a conversation instead of half inside their own head.

Skin conditions can be genuinely isolating. Acne, rosacea, hyperpigmentation- these things affect how people show up in their lives. In job interviews, on dates, with friends.
So when I help someone’s skin, I’m not just changing how they look. I’m sometimes changing how much of themselves they’re willing to bring into a room.
That’s not vanity. That’s quality of life. And I think it deserves to be talked about with a lot more seriousness than the beauty industry sometimes gives it. 🤍

Part 4: The Chapter That Changed Everything

Last year, I was at risk of redundancy from my teaching role at college. It was a really stressful time, and if I’m honest, I struggled with the uncertainty of it all.

Around that time, I’d been watching what Katie was doing in the industry. We already knew each other, and I was fascinated by how she was building something that allowed her to stay connected to an industry she loved whilst creating more flexibility around family life.

We had a conversation, and that conversation changed everything. It gave me the confidence to take a leap and start building something of my own.
That’s when Skin Tuition was born.
My vision was simple: to help people feel happier and more confident in their skin through education, whilst also helping beauty and aesthetics professionals create additional income streams, grow their businesses, and ultimately gain more freedom and flexibility.

Thankfully, I wasn’t made redundant. But something had shifted in me.

Instead of putting my plans on hold, I carried on building my business alongside my teaching role.

Then, during all the uncertainty, another opportunity came my way.

I joined an incredible not-for-profit education company a few days a week, and I’ve absolutely loved being part of an organisation whose mission is to empower young people and help them realise their potential.

So in the space of a year, I went from working one job and worrying about redundancy…

…to working two jobs and launching my own business.

To say it’s been hard work would be an understatement.

There have been long days, late nights, and plenty of moments where I’ve questioned myself.

But every step has been worth it. And the truth is…

This is only the beginning.

There are some exciting changes coming over the next few months, and I can’t wait to share them with you.

So if you’ve been following my journey so far…thank you 🫶🏻 and watch this space.
🤍

Part 3 of my story - The chapter that shaped who I am today ❤️

From a multi-award winning aesthetics clinic to teaching the next generation of therapists, this part of my journey taught me that sometimes the hardest decisions lead to the most rewarding opportunities.

If you’ve followed along with my story so far, thank you 🫶

Part 2 of my journey to where I am today -

I qualified as a beauty therapist, packed my bags and joined a cruise ship!

Before I could step on board, I spent several intense weeks training in London. At the end of the training, I was handed my ship assignment and flown out to Florida, where I met the ship that would become my home for the next nine months.

Over those nine months, I travelled throughout the Caribbean, along the West Coast of the USA, and all the way up to Alaska.

It was without a doubt the hardest but also the best experience of my life.

Looking back, I realise it taught me so much more than beauty therapy. It taught me resilience, adaptability, confidence, and how to communicate with people from all different backgrounds and cultures. It helped me build meaningful relationships with clients, understand individual needs, and deliver exceptional service under pressure.

Most importantly, it taught me that I can put myself completely out of my comfort zone, learn to adapt and still thrive despite hesitation, fear and doubt. Something that I have carried on throughout my career and personal life🤍

I thought I may as well use this challenge to tell you all a bit more about me and my background, in short snippets. So here’s part 1 😊

Day 6/100

Teenagers using actives in skincare is a hot topic at the moment!

For the Higher Up Wellness Challenge, I am talking for approx 60 seconds everyday and I want to try and keep these videos informative and add value where I can. I’ve tried to do that in a short snippet today but I’d love to expand on this specific topic at some point and go into a bit more detail.

Feedback to myself is I get so distracted seeing myself on the camera so end up looking here, there and everywhere 😂 something to work on!
