The Skin Edit
With our Founder Ashleigh Scott
Welcome to a new series where we delve into the beauty routines of the women we admire. These are the rituals they rely on every day to bring out their best selves.
As the curator of The Facialist, which offers a range of natural beauty products from both local and international brands, Ashleigh Scott knows a thing or two about skincare. So, we thought we’d share her tried-and-tested routine with you.

Morning:
My morning routine is all about hydration and getting my skin plump and glowing. I start by soaking my skin with water before spritzing my favorite hydrating mist – Josh Rosebrook Hydrating Accelerator. I follow straight away with Janesce Perfecting Gel and moisturise with Nourishing Skin Reviver. I finish with Uberzinc for my daily SPF protection.
"ÜberZinc is a hydrating moisturizer with over 20% pure Zinc Oxide that provides broad-spectrum UVA and UVB sun protection. It also contains green tea extract and vitamin E for their potent antioxidant properties. The formula is non-comedogenic, doesn't clog pores, and is recommended for light to moderate sun exposure. It can be used as a daily environmental protective moisturizer or as an evening moisturizer for sensitive or acne-prone skin." |
Evening:
My evening routine changes slightly. I start by double cleansing and two or three nights a week I will use retinol. I have been loving Synergie Vitamin A for this step. On the nights I’m not using this, I will use either Perfecting Gel again if I need the hydration or Synergie Vitamin B. Followed by Emma Lewisham Supernatural Crème and The Facialist Glow Oil to top it off.
"Supernatural Face Creme is a game-changer for those looking for deeply hydrated, youthful and plumped skin. This amazing formula uses 72-hour moisture lock technology that instantly replenishes moisture and delivers a radiant, luminous glow. It also boasts age-defying ingredients that help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles." |
Supplements:
I start my day with a smoothie every day. It’s my chance to cram as much goodness into my diet as possible. I usually include the Bestow Beauty Oil, The Gut Co Repair and Feed and Two Islands Skin Hydration Elixir. Mixed with berries, banana, spinach and chocolate protein powder. It's super yummy!
Hair and Body
I will moisturise my body as soon as I get out of the shower with Sans Activator 7. I am obsessed with Chloe Zara Hair Crème, either in damp hair after washing, or in dry hair to revive day-2 hair. I also use the Hair Perfume Oil lightly through the ends of my hair and across my décolleté and upper arms because it has the most beautiful scent which layers perfectly with perfume.
