AESTHETICS & BEAUTY ROUND UP FROM SDS REJUVENATE WIRRAL LIFE'S ANNABEL REVIEWS SDS PRODUCTS With summer over, we must now stop relying on the natural sunshine and UV rays to perfect our skin. With only the promise of colder nights ahead of us we must reward ourselves with a new skin care routine to maintain our hard- earned summer glows. This month, I am bringing you a review on four products from local business, SDS Rejuvenate. MEET DR JAYNE ROBINSON Dr Jayne Robinson was born in Liverpool and attended Belvedere School GDST. Jayne continued her studies, attending Liverpool University where she obtained a degree in Genetics – graduating top of the class!! She soon realised her career aspirations and moved to Warwick University where she studied Medicine, graduating in 2010. Jayne was drawn back up North and returned to Liverpool and Wirral where she joined the North West Deanery and commenced her surgical training. She has enjoyed her surgical positions, which have included General Surgery, Paediatric and ear, nose and throat surgery. Jayne has always had a passion for aesthetics with a special interest in skin care and for this reason she underwent extensive aesthetic training, not only locally but also in London. Presently with a very young family she has looked at her work life balance and has decided to dedicate her work time to aesthetics. Doctors Sally & Ian were fortunate to meet Jayne at a training conference and an immediate relationship developed and Sally & Ian were delighted to hear of her plans and knowing her level of expertise and bubbly personality they realised she would be an asset to the team. Jayne confesses she takes her work home in that she loves trialling products and confesses her favourites are any retinol based treatments, including retinol eye cream which she uses regularly. Her favourite aesthetic therapist treatment is microneedling and Dermalux LED facial and her favourite aesthetic treatment is Botox®. Jayne does not sit still and her enthusiasm to learn still continues – she has recently completed training in the latest non-surgical treatment for removing localised fat deposits using sodium deoxycholic acid, a brand new minimally invasive treatment for cellulite which offers permanent results and completely erase dimples. This treatment can also treat depressed surgical scars and improve the contours of caesarean scars. Jayne is currently the only doctor in Wirral/Liverpool to offer this treatment. Certainly Jayne has found her vocation and the SDS Team look forward to working closely with her. Jayne is now available in both West Kirby and Heswall clinics and offers free consultations for all clients. THE AGE OF THE ‘LIP JOB’ The full, shapely lip trend is more popular than ever! This is why lip augmentation procedures, such as filler injections, are on the rise. However, if lip injections are not for you, there is a new option for those looking for a short term and more subtle lip plump. The Laser Lip Pump treatment is an exciting new treatment from SDS Rejuvenate. The treatment is quick and virtually pain free. It is ideal for those with thin or ageing lips who want to regain colour and volume into the lip tissue as well as those who just want to enhance their pout. 72 wirrallife.com To bring you a varied and accurate review for skin types of all ages, both my mum and I tested them, and we loved it! Hydrate – Your skin’s daily drink of water £45 30m Containing pure hyaluronic acid, SDS’s Hydrate active serum is the perfect start to your day. We used Hydrate once a day as part of our morning skin care and as the first week went on we noticed how our complexion evened out and how our skin remained hydrated throughout the day despite the brisk air. My mum agreed that the natural humectants within Hydrate that are there to help your skin to maximise water retention, worked well in reducing the appearance of fine lines across her face. This product worked well for us both and is one we will continue to use. Glow – Exfoliator (No micro-beads) Premium Range £45 50ml One of only two products within SDS’s range that is fragranced, Glow, does just that. The mellow mango scent really dances across your face when used, almost allowing you to breathe in the calming feels of anti-aging. The exfoliation of glycolic acid and quartz stimulates your skin into looking younger with a beautiful glow. We used Glow the recommended twice weekly for these results. For myself, Glow provides that needed sparkle and smoothness for the autumnal air. For my mum, she found benefits from the condition of Glow leaving her skin looking and feeling younger. Again, a perfect product for skin types of all ages. Reveal – Foaming Glycolic Wash £26 100ml The big one. Reveal is a glycolic wash designed to increase cell turnover to reveal new and younger looking cells. We used Reveal once every other day, as part of our night care routine which helped to remove the build up of impurities and excess oil we had acquired throughout the day. As someone who suffers from oily skin, I really enjoyed the benefits of Reveal as it cleansed my skin without drying it out which is a problem I have found so often in other skincare products. Reveal should be used as a continuous wash to allow the salicylic acid to work effectively in a routine, this way dead skin cells won’t have the opportunity to build up again. Recover – Healing Active Night Cream 0.5% Retinol £48 30ml As a full circle of my SDS review it would only be right to conclude with Recover night cream. Used once daily at night SDS’s signature night cream rehydrates skin to allow an overnight recovery from the harsh elements of the day. Packaged in an easy to use pump application, Recover claims to have been specifically developed to rejuvenate through its antioxidant activity. For both me and my mum, the night cream left our skin waking up smooth and fresh – ready for the full day ahead. Overall, SDS Rejuvenates products are a working miracle suitable for skin of all types and all ages. Me and my mum both thoroughly enjoyed testing out each product and it is warming to see a local business becoming a well established and respected brand throughout the industry. We will in no doubt be continuing to use SDS as part of our normal skin care routine and both appreciated the easy application packaging and simplistic but effective outer design.
