Why Your Skin Might Not Be Glowing – And What To Do About It

Have you ever looked in the mirror and thought, "Why does my skin look so dull, even though I’m doing all the right things?" You’re not alone – and I promise, it’s not about doing more, it’s about doing what’s right for your skin.

As a skin therapist, one of the most common things I hear from new clients is:

"I’ve tried so many products but nothing seems to work."

✨ Here’s the truth:
Glowing skin isn’t about having a 10-step routine. It’s about understanding your skin type, using the right active ingredients, and getting regular treatments that support your skin’s natural rhythm.

So if your glow feels a little meh right now, here are 3 common reasons why:

1. You’re not exfoliating the right way
Too much exfoliation? Your barrier’s irritated. Not enough? Dead skin builds up, making your face look tired. I recommend gentle exfoliation 1–2 times a week with ingredients like lactic acid or enzymes – and monthly facials to really clear the way.

2. Dehydration (inside and out!)
When skin lacks water, it looks flat and fine lines show more. Hyaluronic acid serums, hydrating sheet masks, and upping your water intake can make a massive difference. I also love using skin boosters like Seventy Hyal for that deep-down drink your skin’s been craving.

3. You need a pro to help guide you
Sometimes a 1:1 skin consultation can save you months (and £££) trying to figure it all out alone. Whether it’s a bespoke facial, a tweak to your routine, or a little aesthetic boost, it’s about choosing what works for you.
