Samantha asks about your skin, your routine and what you would like to change, then looks closely at your skin.
Skin Rocks facial, 75 minutes, £75
The Hydration Facial in Lincoln
The Hydration Facial is the Skin Rocks treatment for dry, tight and dehydrated skin, carried out in Lincoln by advanced facialist Samantha Kate.
Dry skin
Who it is for
Choose the Hydration Facial if your skin feels tight after cleansing, looks dull or flaky, or drinks up moisturiser and still wants more. Central heating, cold weather, travel and a busy life can all leave skin short of water.
This facial is about putting moisture back and helping your skin hold on to it, so it feels soft, plump and comfortable for longer.
What happens, step by step
A thorough cleanse removes make-up, SPF and the day, so the rest of the facial works on clean skin.
A gentle exfoliation smooths away dry, flaky patches so that hydrating products can do their work.
A lifting massage for the face, neck and shoulders.
Layers of hydrating and nourishing Skin Rocks skincare, chosen to replace water and lock it in.
You leave with clear, personal guidance on looking after your skin between appointments.
The massage and your aftercare
A lifting massage uses firm, upward strokes to work the muscles of the face. It eases the tension we all hold in the jaw and brow and leaves the face looking fresher and more awake.
Afterwards, keep all of the products on your skin and avoid putting on make-up for the rest of the day. Drink plenty of water, and wear an SPF if your appointment is in the daytime. In the evening, follow the gentle routine Samantha advises for you.

How do I book it?
Book the Skin Rocks Facial online and let Samantha know you would like The Hydration Facial. She will confirm it is the right choice once she has seen your skin.
What if another facial would suit me better?
