There are certain times of year, or your cycle, where your skin could do with a bit of a boost.
It may be a pesky breakout or the fact that working from home under a heat pump has sucked it dry.
Skin booster treatments that target specific skin concerns have become big business for the beauty industry.
So, what’s different about these booster treatments? How do they differ from our usual skincare routine? And do they work?
Boosters explained
Targeted boosters allow us to introduce key active ingredients our skin needs at the time without needing to drastically change our skincare routine, explains Dr Gillian Worth, head chemist at Glow Lab. They enable us to customise our skincare routines in a really targeted and affordable way.
“Our skin in a complex organ and our skin needs can change often making selecting the right products tricky,” says Worth. “Targeted booster treatments can be used in addition to your existing routine to give skin a ‘boost’ depending on what your skin needs at the time.
