Gorgeous Ellie for BAFTA- such a pleasure to treat Ellie’s skin pre awards and get to know her. I focused on dewy luminosity with a super gentle exfoliation, LED and my signature sculpt and glow. Thanks for trusting me with your skin Ellie 🤍

The lovely Katie Leung for the BATFA nominees party… on Katie I focused on calming and hydrating the skin with massage and masks and also did some gentle exfoliation to help with glow and to smooth to skin. So lovely to meet you Katie!

So wonderful to meet Gugu and give her a moment of calm and prep her skin before the BAFTA awards. 

I focused on glow and nourishment for Gugu’s skin- we did a very gentle exfoliation to even out skin and some energy giving LED before finishing skin with Armani skincare. Thank you for trusting me with your gorgeous face Gugu. 🤍

❤️‍🔥 @folaevansakingbola ❤️‍🔥 

Such a pleasure to prep Fola’s beautiful skin pre glam for the BAFTA nominees party. 

Fola had literally just got a long haul flight, so I focused on reviving and hydrating the skin, lymphatic massage to aid skin detoxification and any residual water retention and my signature KMP sculpt and glow…. as you can see here - not a difficult job, Fola exudes radiance and joy! ✨

‘The old school facial is back. Here’s where to book in 2026’ 

A HUGE HUGE thank you to the wonderful @phoebejmcd for including me in the Sunday Times Style spring skincare special for her piece on good old hands on facials… but also…. the opening paragraph of the article, like… what?!?! I’m stunned! 
Thank you for always supporting me Phoebe. 🩷

I guess this is also a great time to pay tribute to something that has become my sidekick…

The Sid to my Nancy, the Richard to my Elizabeth, the Shane to my Ilya … ❤️‍🔥THE BED OF DREAMS❤️‍🔥 Whom without, so many of these mentions clearly wouldn’t be possible. 😂
There’s no other piece of equipment I would rather do work life with. 🫶🏼 ☁️ 🛌 taken in KMP Skin by @kmp_skin

Last week I was invited by @carolinehirons to @claridgeshotel for the inaugural ‘Annual Facialist Dinner’. 

Caroline decided to host this dinner for us to celebrate the community in our part of the industry, which so often can be overlooked compared to other sectors of the industry. 

It was such a special evening, and I was so honoured to be there, sat in a room with all of my INCREDIBLE industry colleagues- some of whom I felt like I’d known all my professional career, but never had the chance to meet in person. 
Delicious food, fabulous company and so much love, gratitude, respect and laughs for and from everyone in the room that night. 
I’m still pinching myself for ‘being in the room’ to be honest. 

Thank you Caroline for having me , thank you to @blanketlondon & @skinrocks for all your hard work into organising such a beautiful event. 

✨🎄✨🫶🏼🤍

“The most nourishing expert treatments to book in for if you’re a new mum in London”

Thank you so much to @omalley_katie for including me in your piece about your favourite treatments for new mums ✨

As Katie mentioned, I don’t really do a specific postpartum facial - KMP Skin facials are all bespoke, so we’ll sit down initially and throughly discuss how your skin is, how it’s been throughout your pregnancy and focus on any prominent concerns you have. 
I can help to rebuild a skincare routine that might serve you better through the postpartum wave and support that with treatments at KMP too. 
Everyone’s skin is different after having a baby, so there’s no ‘one size fits all’, but building a regime and some me time again can be just the ticket for supporting you and your skin post pregnancy 🩷

Thank you Katie! by @kmp_skin

Two dreamy days were spent last week with @tatcha at KMP Skin, offering bespoke facials with the full Tatcha line up, but with a KMP twist ☁️ ✨ 

Tatcha is a gorgeous brand ~ carefully considered, rooted in rituals honouring eastern beauty and with gentle formulas but not compromising on efficacy. It’s been such a treat to work with such a loved brand. 

Personal favourites include the Indigo Overnight Repair Cream, which is a winter skincare staple for me, the iconic dewy skin cream and mist and of course Kissu lip mask, which also comes as a limited edition 23 carat gold leaf for Christmas kisses💋 

Thank you to Zoe, Jodie, Julia and Ismini for trusting me with the brand 💜💜💜 taken in KMP Skin by @kmp_skin

Well hello there lovely people 👋🏼

Not groundbreaking, but new for me - I’ve decided to launch a substack, and it’s called KMP SkinSpace ✨ 

This substack has been born out of a few things, my love for writing, the need (I think) for there to be a space where the information is coming from someone who is qualified and an expert in the beauty and skincare space to try and quell some of the absolute nonsense that I see on a daily basis (😵‍💫) and a way for me to collate information for people to read in an easy and accessible way in a space where people can also ask questions and share. 

I’m still finding my feet with the platform, and I’m sure the logistics will change as my time evolves on it, but if you’re a substack user and you’re interested in reading more about beauty and skincare then of course I would love to join and subscribe! Your support would mean the 🌍🫶🏼

My username is ‘KMPSkin’ and the Sub is called KMP SkinSpace …. Enjoy!💋 taken in KMP Skin by @kmp_skin
