Hi Girls,

Let’s admit it, all of us have had days when we have looked in the mirror and we wish those lines and wrinkles would just disappear! With the advent of innovations such as Botox, it has been easier for people to get their desired looks.

But if you’re like me the thought of having painful injections makes my skin crawl, and of course puts a huge hole in your pocket. On the brighter side, Dr LeWinn’s Line Smoothing Complex Snap 8 Range of products promises to wipe away your lines and wrinkles; let me show you how to take years off your age.

Twice a day apply Dr LeWinn’s Line Smoothing Complex Snap8 Super Hydrator under your moisturiser, this magical formula not only ensures your skin stays super hydrated thanks to nature’s moisture magnet Sodium Hyaluronate, it also contains Snap8, this amazing Botox alternative ingredient will smooth away your unwanted lines and wrinkles.

Using an eye cream twice a day is so important girls, the area around your eyes is very delicate and needs a little extra care, you will absolutely  love Dr. LeWinn’s Line Smoothing Complex Snap 8 Eye Recovery Complex, it’s is specially designed to reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles. It has so many  good anti-ageing ingredients, Snap 8, Coenzyme Q10, Liquorice and Vitamin C to name a few!!! Many women apply too much eye cream and too close to the eyes, a tip from me; you only need about a rice grain for both eyes and only apply on the bone area (orbital bone) just under your eyes.

An anti-oxidant rich formula is essential for during the day when free radicals are abundant, these are the bad guys that contribute to premature ageing. Trust me girls Dr. LeWinn’s Line Smoothing Complex Snap 8 Triple Action Day Defence ticks all the boxes, not only does it contain millicapsules of pure free radical busting ingredients such as Caviar Extract, Black Current Oil and Vitamin E, it also has Snap 8 the super Botox alternative ingredient. This potent formula will ensure your skin stays protected from the harmful effects of free radical damage whilst boosting your collagen and making those dreaded lines and wrinkles disappear!!

Night Creams are essential especially now that winter is just around the corner. You may have heard the expression feed the skin at night; well that’s exactly what Dr. LeWinn’s Snap 8 Double Intensity Night Cream will do!! This rich overnight treatment cream has a cocktail of potent anti-ageing ingredients such as Snap 8 Vitamin C which not only addresses the very real concern of lines and wrinkles it also provides intense nourishment and moisturisation to your skin, absolutely essential for anyone with the concern of dry skin. Apply this delicious cream at night over Dr LeWinn’s Line Smoothing Complex Snap8 Super Hydrator and you will wake up with luminous, younger looking skin!

Emily from the UK had this to say about the Dr Lewinn's Revitalising Hand Polish.

'Really nice product - To begin with I was not sure about this product as I never thought of using a hand polish but I love this product. It smells really refreshing of citrus fruits. After you have used the polish you can see your hands look brighter and especially noticeable round the fingernails, as that is where I often get dry skin. Would definatly recommend this product as an important part of you nail care routine."

Hi Girls,

What are your skin concerns? Do you have very dry skin, dehydrated skin, sun damage, lines and wrinkles or sagging skin? We all want glowing, healthy skin. I have the answers and some great solutions to treat your skin concerns so you can enjoy smooth, radiant skin!!

At Dr. LeWinn’s we pride ourselves in knowing skin and combining our current research and our plastic surgery heritage we understand your skincare issues, and have solutions to solve them.

Did you know? Dehydrated Skin is prone to premature ageing and inflammation
Keep your skin hydrated by drinking plenty of water and use a hydrating serum such as Dr. Le Winn’s Line Smoothing Complex Snap 8 Super Hydrator twice daily after cleansing and toning. While serums are lightweight, it’s one part of your skin care routine that has a lasting effect. This lovely oil free formula locks in the moisture maintains skin hydration and improves the absorption of all moisturisers and treatments. A must for everyone!

Did you know you shed 30,000 – 40,000 dead skin cells every minute of every day? Dead skin can build up on your face resulting in a dull, dry complexion. |

Exfoliation is the magic bullet in skin care to perk up the overall texture and clarity of your skin. To improve the penetration of all moisturisers and treatments invest in a good “at home” exfoliator. Dr. Le Winn’s Skin Renewal with Fruit Extracts is a leave on overnight exfoliation treatment used 3 nights a week it will assist in removing dead skin cell build up resulting in a smoother more radiant complexion!

Did you know the sun is the biggest contributing factor to premature ageing?
Wearing a broad spectrum protection daily is essential. Dr. Le Winn’s Ultra R4 Rejuvenation Fluid SPF 15 or Dr. Le Winn’s Ultra R4 Restorative Cream SPF 15 is the answer. Both moisturisers contain potent anti-ageing peptides to boost the skin’s collagen and anti-oxidants to repair and protect your skin. Remember to reapply your sunscreen at regular intervals.

Did you know as we grow old, cells within the epidermal layer of our skin becomes thinner and collagen production is reduced, as a result our skin losses firmness elasticity and tone.
Look at using a good anti-ageing skin care to enhance your skin’s firmness and natural radiance. Dr. Le Winn’s Ultra R4 Range is absolutely perfect; this divine collagen boosting range is fantastic for stimulating collagen production dramatically reducing the visible signs ageing keeping your complexion smooth, supple and radiant. Choose from the Ultra R4 Restorative Cream, Regenerative Night Cream, Eye Repair Cream or the Recovery Mask. Now new to the range is the Dr. Le Winn’s Ultra R4 Rejuvenation Fluid SPF 15 and Dr. Le Winn’s Ultra R4 Restorative Cream SPF 15.

If you have any specific questions on your skin, drop me a line.

Until Next time,
