Our Beauty Beyond Time campaign is a celebration of beauty throughout all stages of life. At Face The Future, we want to channel positivity into being 100% yourself at every stage of your journey.
We always put our community at the forefront of everything we do, which is why as part of our Beauty Beyond Time campaign, we invited three of our loyal customers to share their skincare journeys with us. Keep reading to learn about Victoria, Chris and Helen’s unique skincare stories and the brands they have connected with in their own journeys!
Our Community's Skincare Stories
Chris
Chris has been a loyal Face the Future customer for around four years and proudly describes herself as a skincare lover. At 76, she is deeply committed to her routine and overall skin health. She first discovered Face the Future after having a consultation with our team while looking to buy products from her favourite skincare brand, Environ, which she has been using for 20 years. The main thing to take away from Chris’ story is that if you put consistent effort into your routine and skin care products you will reap the benefits.
A highlight from Chris’ skincare journey is a time when a 54-year-old woman mistook her for being the same age as her – not knowing she was 22 years older! Chris’ favourite Environ product is the Tri-Retinoid Complex Retinol Serum Forte. For those who are acclimatised to strong concentrations of retinol, this serum enhances skin health, resilience and minimises fine lines and wrinkles. There’s no wonder Chris loves it so much!
Helen
Throughout her life, Helen had previously struggled with both psoriasis and acne, conditions she found were largely triggered by stress. This led her to change the way she approached skincare, opting for a more mindful and simplified routine. She’s found that keeping things simple works best for her skin.
One brand that has been a revelation in her routine is Medik8, which she discovered through Face the Future. In her own words, Helen found that the products that Medik8 offer have given her confidence back, allowing her to move through life feeling empowered about her skin. Through her love for Medik8, Helen found her go-to eye cream. The Medik8 Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye 10 is the last step in Medik8’s progressive series of eye creams. When used consistently it visibly lifts, smooths and brightens the eye area with an effective concentration of retinaldehyde.
Victoria
Victoria has been dedicated to skincare since childhood and has always enjoyed trying new products. With no major skin concerns, she takes a broad approach, using and enjoying a variety of different skincare brands. Victoria discovered Face The Future at our On The Road pop-up in Leeds and is especially fond of our 365 Days Of SPF campaign as it highlights the critical issue of helping people understand how essential day SPF use is.
Skincare is a constant in her life, and she always makes sure to have her essentials on hand. Recently, Vichy has become a particular focus in her routine. Her favourite Vichy product is the Vichy Mineral 89 72 Hr Hyaluronic Acid & Squalane Moisture Boosting Cream. The cream formula melts into the skin, hydrates and plumps with a combination of vitamin B3, vitamin E, hyaluronic acid and squalene.
