It’s true what they say. You really do need your Beauty Sleep.
Getting enough sleep every night is so important when it comes to looking after Yourself. Sleep allows your body and mind to recharge, which means that you are refreshed and ready when you wake up. It contributes to so much. Sleep can affect your brain power, your health, your skin, hair and nails, your mental state, and just your general everyday life.
But, are you getting enough sleep every night?
How Much Sleep Do You Need?
On average, the amount of hours adults need, per night, is 7-9 hours. The amount of sleep you need depends on your age. After doing some research, I found this.
Our skin is made up of 2 main layers. The epidermis the dermis. Talking very basically, the epidermis is at the top, where we can see and touch, and underneath is the dermis at the bottom. The skin cells are created and made in the dermis, over time they travel upwards, and become dead skin cells at the top of the epidermis, and the new cells underneath become the new dead skin cells (this is called cell turnover.)
When we apply creams topically, especially ones that contain Vitamin A – they are feeding the epidermis and making it healthier, so it looks and feels good. But the cells being created in the dermis are the same cells that we may have concerns with – e.g. dehydration, aging, etc. BUT when we take supplements, we are feeding the cells at the dermis. The cells at the dermis become healthier, and as they move to the top surface, they are healthier, and look better, without the concerns!
When is the best time to start a Skin Care Regime?
The answer is simple. - the sooner, the better.
You simply can’t put a number on it. You should be using products on your skin everyday. Whether that’s a soft moisturiser when you’re younger. Or when turning double figures, you might even be using a gentle cleanser, as well as a moisturiser.
Becoming a teenager can be hard. Your hormones start kicking in and your emotions can sometimes seem like you’re on a rollercoaster. However, one thing that doesn’t have to be difficult is your skin. Yes, we all know that when becoming a teenager, our hormonal imbalance can sometimes have negative effects on our skin and quite often, we become more oily-prone. But, with the right skincare products, and a simple, yet effective routine, you can get your skin under control.
One of the most important things you need to do is have a structured routine. Having a simple, yet effective skin care regime is key when wanting to achieve healthy skin. An easy go-to-guide that you can follow morning and night will help you reach your skin care goals.
So, where do you start?
If you are a complete newbie when it comes to treating your skin, we’d recommend visiting the salon for a Skin Consultation Analysis. When coming in for a consultation, one of our highly trained Skin Experts can help you, whilst recommending the best solution for your skin. This way, you’ll have everything you need to know when it comes to treating your skin, the right way.

This amazing product is the perfect all-rounder! Suitable for all “skin/eye” concerns and creates transformational results. This clever eye gel contains essential vitamins, antioxidants and peptides. All of which, have been scientifically researched and specifically chosen for the use around our delicate and sensitive eye area.
The health of your hair makes a big difference to the way your hair will look and feel. When you’re with us in the salon, it can also play a part in what service we offer, how your hair will behave and the result.
4 out of the 5 types of damage occur outside of the salon, meaning even the most virgin hair (hair untreated by colour or bleach) can be damaged or can break from the most mundane lifestyle choices.
Being aware of how damage generally occurs on a day-to-day basis is the best way of preventing unnecessary stress to your hair AND along with the use of Olaplex products, we can work together to fix any current damage and prevent more.
Are you adding Skin Care Supplements into your everyday skincare regime? - If not, why?!
Taking supplements daily is one of the most efficient and effective ways of achieving your skincare goals. At Pure Emporium, we are OBSESSED with the supplements from the Advanced Nutrition Programme. There is a whole range of skin and wellbeing supplements that can support you in your skin journey. The supplements supply your body with the vitamins and minerals you need to help boost your skin’s health, as well as working alongside your topical skin care routine, to help improve the results of your current products.
During your Skin Analysis visit, your Skin Expert Therapist will talk you through various Skin Solutions on the day. Whether that’s about what treatment’s will suit your skin best, or what products you should be using on your skin at home, your therapist will talk you through everything. Even lifestyle factors are something we like to go through. Little changes here and there can make such a difference when it comes to improving your Skin’s Health.
The next bit is down to you.
We’ve shared our knowledge, and given you the guidance needed to improve any skin concerns. You need to choose what solution you’d like to go ahead with to make these changes.
Are you ready to achieve photo-ready, flawless skin?
At Pure Emporium, we’ve got every product you could possibly need to achieve that perfect, smooth and radiant finish. We use the Jane Iredale Skincare Make Up.
About Jane Iredale:
Jane, the brand creator, was tired of seeing make up products being used that were no good for our skin. So she wanted to created a change and find something that wouldn’t undermine our Skin’s Health.
Are there any rules about what colour your hair should be? Absolutely not!
We love interjecting your personality into your hair, and if you’re happy, so are we.
Have you had your hair colour done countless times over the years, or is it your first time?
Maybe you want multi-tonal hair colour with shades and tones running through, perhaps you want an all over colour, perhaps you want the latest season and fashion favourites, or you want to go all out and try something different.
Whatever you’d like to achieve, getting to the core of what you want is critical before letting anyone, including yourself, make those changes to your hair. Some things need to be considered first.
What are the real reasons behind a hair consultation?
When coming into the salon for a facial treatment, you probably enter with expectations of great changes and complete skin clarity. And yes, of course. All of our facials will create positive changes in the skin and will help to reduce your skin concerns. BUT… you can’t expect 1 facial to change your skin forever. You have to be consistent. You must be using skincare products at home, every morning and night.
At Pure Emporium, we’ve got a team of highly educated Skin Experts that will help you on your skin journey. Ultimately, we will help you reach your skin goal. This is done with hard work, determination and facial treatments over a period of time. Are you wanting to see results quicker? DO YOUR HOMECARE.

This clever machine was scientifically developed on the principle of skin fluorescence. Allowing us to examine your skin’s health at a deeper level.
Just like many other areas of our body, our hair goes through changes. When we notice changes in our hair, we sometimes have no idea why it’s happening.
Our health and how we choose to treat our hair can have big impacts on our hair, but what about our age?
Your hair changes all the way through your life, regardless of any other factor, and it’s all quite interesting!
Let’s have a look at what the foundations are through the ages and how your hair changes….
An Environ face mask should be a staple in your at-home skincare routine. Not only will it add luxury and a feel of “pamper” to your routine, but it will also be VERY beneficial for your skin.
