About Imago Skincare

I have been formulating skincare since 2004, using ingredients which are as natural as possible, from marine and plant sources. I am passionate about making products that are solution focussed and safe! I tell it like it is - no bullshit!

Good afternoon everyone. To all of you waiting for the Heal and Purify range - we are now fully stocked! Your products can be collected from the salon or sent by post if you prefer.
I have re-formulated the Heal and Purify moisturiser to include my new favourite, Hyaluronic Acid. As well as being anti-ageing, it is excellent for acne prone skin.
I have not taken out any of the wonderful ingredients, such as the herbal extracts (Wild Pansy and Chickweed), or the special bl...end of plant extracts which has shown great results in tests.
The product has a medicated fragrance, created by Niaouli, Bergamot and Lavender.

By popular demand, introducing a handbag size of the Nourishing Hand and Body Lotion. You will also find it in our Spa at Home Gift Pack.
The coconut butter, Avocado Oil, Sweet Almond Oil and Glycerine in this product make it super moisturising. Some people have reported a dramatic improvement in eczema like conditions - in one case from a single application!
The 15ml size is perfect if you just want a trial size. Obviously, much more cost effective in the 250ml bottle.
... Only £5.00 from Imago Beauty and Holistics or by messaging me if you want some sent by post.

Good morning! This morning I am very excited about my plans for the day. I am planning on making a new batch of my Heal and Purify Wash, Toner and moisturiser. I am reformulating the moisturiser to incorporate Hyaluronic Acid as it can really help acne prone skin. I will also be making Pore Tightening Solution.
What is making me so excited is that, this morning, I received some pictures from someone who requested some samples three weeks ago. In three weeks, the differ...ence is very visible, and it will get better!
Hormonal skin issues are very difficult to treat because the hormones just keep on coming to create their own little havoc on your skin!
So, as you know, I never make extravagant claims about my skincare - they are formulated in an outcome focused way but they don't perform miracles - just work on your skin to get it to the best it can be!
The first image on the left shows the skin at the beginning of the trial - the next one on the right of that is after one week and the far right is three weeks later. The second image shows the skin with makeup at the beginning on the left and the obvious improvement on the right.

What do you think about a cleaning product that has no nasty chemicals? This one smells delightful and cleans really efficiently! I don't use anything else. It is multi purpose and contains a blend of essential oils with anti-viral, anti-septic, and anti-bacterial properties.

Just to let you know I made Seriously Citrus and Relaxing Rose Body Scrub and Soak last week. Just the product we need after all that sun we've had. What a fabulous summer!!

Good morning... Today, I would like to tell you about Vita Nail. If you have dry, brittle, peeling or damaged nails, this is the product for you. It's food for the nails! I formulated this product to help brittle, peeling or soft nails. Very moisturising for dry nails and cuticles.
Ingredients:
... Vitamin a - nourishes and protects and helps to counteract inflammation
Vitamin e - anti-oxidant and nourishing
Borage Oil - contains exceptionally high quantities of Gamma Linolenic Acid to combat dryness.
Comfrey Oil - Called Knit-bone in Folk culture as it is thought to rebuild cell tissue.
Thistle Oil - Nourishing, due to high Omega 3 and Omega 6 levels
Essential Oils - a blend of Frankincense, Lemon, Rosemary and Carrot seed adds regenerating, anti-bacterial properties. Rosemary is thought to stimulate nail growth and Carrot seed has a high carotene and Vitamin A content to encourage healthy nails.

I did this for a networking meeting last month. I'm not generally a crafty kind of person so be gentle!

I had some photographs taken at my Imago Skincare Workshop yesterday. Here's one, for now. We are getting them ready to put on the page in the near future.

I never get bored with telling people about how effective this product is so I hope you don't get bored with reading it. I developed this as an anti-ageing night treatment but it seems that it is a big hit with people with any skin type. To be honest, it's a shame not to have it on your skin all the time and it is fine to use during the day too! Use one pump in the morning, apply moisturiser (you need less than normal), then put on your make-up. This product feeds the skin ...and is an absolute synthesis of ingredients that just works! You can just believe me, or read on....
The following are just four out of fifteen ingredients used in this product. If you want more information, just let me know.
Eco Marine Algae Extract - Tests showed the capacity to stimulate cellular proliferation which significantly increased collagen synthesis by 19.3% using a 2% concentration in only 24 hours compared to an untreated control sample. Even when used at 0.5% there is a gradual increase collagen synthesis of 17% after 72 hours compared to untreated samples.
EcoCert approved ethanol is used to make an extraction of Cylindrotheca Fusiformis which is an oceanic marine algae. Because of the risk of pollution in the seas, the producer grows the micro algae in a purpose built eco facility. This not only guarantees purity of the algae but also means that the eco balance of the oceans are not disturbed by uncontrolled harvesting.
The algae give off gases that are harvested to heat the facility and it is powered by solar panels to give a low carbon footprint.
Argan Oil - alpha-tocopherols, carotene, phytosterols and Omega 6 fatty acids.
Pumpkin Seed Oil - high zinc content, an excellent lifting oil for dry, mature and damaged skin. high in vitamins A, beta-carotene, B2, B3, potassium, magnesium. It is also high in omega 9, 6 and 3. Said to contain high quantities of vitamin A, beta-carotene, and vitamins B2 and B3
Pomegranate Seed Oil - Contains Vitamins A, B D and E, also contains Punicic Acid which is known as Omega 5. This rare essential fatty acid is abundant in Pomegranate Seed Oil and this oil is the only known botanical source. Omega 5 has strong anti inflammatory properties and is a good antioxidant. It tackles free radicals so delays skin ageing making the oil very regenerative and even helps to stimulate collagen production. Studies show that it provides protection from sun damage. Do not consider this to be an oil with high SPF because it is not but studies suggest that if sun damage has already occurred pomegranate seed oil can help to diminish that damage.
Pomegranate Extract - help to regulate cell turnover and give the cell time to divide normally and form completely.
Arctic Cranberry Extract - provides Essential Fatty Acids and Tocotrienols, offering a three-in-one kit for nourishing, moisturising and protecting the skin in the most natural way.
15 ml bottle - £12

Hello lovely people! I am very happy today after receiving some fabulous feedback about my products. Today, I re-formulated my Firm and Nourish Cleanser - it is the next one in line for making palm free. I've used my new Biogreen Emulsifier and added a new Beeswax product that makes the lotion very smooth and silky. It has gone off for testing so I can't sell it yet but will be handing out free samples to get some feedback. I still have lots of the original formulation which is a popular choice!

User

Here is my pricelist. Don't forget, we have a few products with discontinued branding at 30% off!

I was extremely fortunate to receive this skin care range for my birthday. It has made my skin look younger and feels so soft I love it. Won’t be going back to Liz Earle! thank you Pauline xxx

I stumbled across my new favourite face cream by accident after having my brows & lady tashe waxed (lol) I was advised to purchase the tea tree rescue lotion to use on the waxed bits but I decided to just use it all over as it was easier.. It has cleared up the spots that seemed permenant & my mam commented how nice my skin looked �� I've also had a facial & used the face scrub & face wash... Both amazing products & very reasonable prices too

User

I love the Marine Active complex. It smells lovely and my skin feels more plump and moisturised with just a tiny amount of product. A great find. So pleased I gave it a go!

User

I have just started using the Imago skin care and the difference was visible in a matter of days. Then I had a facial using the products and I came out after an hour looking like I’d had a weeks holiday! They’re absolutely stunning and work like magic. I would highly recommend and such value for money �

User

I absolutely love Imago skin care. I find trying out new skin care hard because I normally have a bad reaction to different brands. I tried out one Imago product about 2 years ago and within 3 days I saw the results I wanted. I now don’t bother trying any other skin care products as I’m over the moon with the results that I get with the Imago products and FYI they all smell AMAZING!!... ;)Try it out ladies and gents you won’t go back!

User

Gorgeous skincare products, my skin has never felt as good x

User

Couldn’t recommend Pauline’s products enough!! I have particularly sensitive skin but have never seen anything other than brilliant results with Imago skincare.
