Coming to LONDON VICTORIA
London Makeup Artiste and Beauty finalist, Cheryl Huggins will be collaborating with some of the best Entrepreneurs in the UK
WHERE: at the I Do HandMadePop Up Shop at the Iconic London Victoria Train Station SW1 where they will be selling their brands products, on the station concourse in this iconic location from 8th - 21st July.
I am really looking forward to sharing my beauty and makeup tips, with you, as well as demonstrating the popular items from my 'natural holistic beauty', as well as The Home SPA Facial kits.
Why did I create the FaceClays skincare brand?
Having sensitive skin, hayfever allergies always left me itching with irritated skin, especially in the Summer months. My skincare routine had to be easy, soothing and contain no perfume or toxic additives, my mother and I blended a few creams and potions that contains few ingredients and uses simple formulas that are as pure and without lots of hidden ingredients and additives. The routine I have been using was of a holistic nature and adapted plant based history, and included the use of basic oils and mixtures of creams. A Caribbean mantra handed down from my mother and many grandmothers.
The main thing I learnt was to keep the routine SIMPLE, and don't pick at your blemishes, my mum is now 90 years old with the most amazing skin, she still has her weekly manicure, with a Rosemist spritz to complete the ritual.
All the products in the capsule range are hand-crafted, organically derived, cruelty free, and housed in sustainable and recyclable packaging. I created my essential spa kit to give yourself time to enjoy those special moments of relaxation. We must take time to indulge in a weekly clay mask, a rejuvenating foot or bath - soak, or a moment of spa bliss to uplift and inspire your holistic journey.Once you have experienced a deep treatment cleanse with clay masks, refreshed and rehydrated the skin with a pure Rose mist to calm soothe your complexion you will understand the power of botanicals. Listen to your skin, start with the basics and use your rituals to balance and define your skin health.
What is FACECLAYS ?
It is a combination of using natural earth clays that have kept their healing ions, harvested from the purest mountain quarries in a eco-friendly system to cleanse, detox and heal the body. I created them to use with the gentlest organic oils that are sourced for their concentrations of vitamins and minerals.
The pureness, of natural elements, smooth, balance and improve skin texture, it is perfect for those who wish to begin a cruelty free, vegan friendly, skin health journey. Using essences, natural vitamins, anti-oxidants, and nourishing ingredients you can begin to repair the skin's microbiome, skin barrier with minimal additional chemicals or toxic additives.
I am so proud to use products and ingredients that are aligned with the ecocert, leaping bunny and vegan friendly suppliers, this makes the product suitable for most skin types, all ages, men, even those with beards and teenagers.
NO ADDITIVES JUST PURE
If you are prone to breakouts and blemishes we GOT you...dryness, flaky or sensitive skin types, menopause, mix the green detox clay or the white radiant clay, apply and leave for 10 minutes....it will control the oil content, take down the irritation and soothe the skin gently, no dry skin with these 100% natural clays.

In the pursuit of radiant healthy skin, a facial detox is a recommended ritual to revitalize your complexion, by enhancing the skin's natural glow and protecting the microbiome from external damage.
This holistic approach to gaining skin confidence, includes using natural and botanical methods to eliminate toxins, dead skin removal, and sheds the active chemicals that accumulate over time from environmental pollution and makeup. The buildup of skin debris comprises of natural sweat, sebum, urea, ammonia and other compounds. These compounds protect the skin barrier, regulate the temperature, and balance the oil production on the skin surface.
Working with cosmetic brands that contain, organic and natural ingredients, allows you to cleanse and exfoliate without skin irritation , assessments would be recommended.
Micro-organisms are always present, with a balanced skin ritual, the build up of chemical actives, makeup and suncare residue will be minimal. Many people over-cleanse the skin daily, with harsh chemicals and actives. To ensure that the microbiome is not compromised,we need to maintain a value of around 5.5. A slightly acidic surface aids skin renewal and leads to a soft and smooth skin. This is easily achieved by using dual action cleansers, gentle purification, and makeup removers.
Using balanced products to clear impurities, and excess oils, neutralises the skin surface without stripping its natural oils, revealing a fresher, more vibrant, healthy balanced complexion.
We must minimise bacterial pollution and refine the skin's surface, a great skincare routine usually starts with a great cleanser, a balancing skin toner and nourishing moisturisers.To avoid skin damage, and scarring, refrain from touching your face, avoiding picking skin, generally understanding your health, diet, sleep. Keep mental stress reduced to a minimum so that your body system promotes a much healthier skin texture.
Clearing away accumulated toxins through detoxification, aids regulation of oil and sebum production, which in turn balances the natural PH, whilst protecting the skins surface from the harsh elements. For great skin during the harsh winter months, use active gentle exfoliation, extra nourishnent and topical hydration that may include a sun protection factor.
A seasonal update with a skincare professional, regular skin assessments to upgrade products for your skin, home spa treatments and regular rituals will deliver a smoother more radiant skin. Do you know your skin type and skin condition? With additional massage techniques, daily consistency and knowledge of your basics is key to flawless skin.
Double cleansing, is a cornerstone ritual of skincare, this ritual will leave the skin with a smoother and brighter complexion. Use natural, clays or hydration masks to exfoliate and deep cleanse. The constitution of clay delivers safe absorption of excess oils, cleansing the skin dirt, removing impurities, softening pore congestion, removing excessive inflammation, and breaking down bacteria on acneic skin.
Suitable for all skin types the resurgance of clay powders in beauty cleansing, has been one of the growing trends on social media in 2024. Clay has properties that enhance the skin's ability to remove skin dirt, oil-build up, gently removes damaging toxins. The most popular being Kaolin, Bentonite, and Rhassoul.
Throughout history many African and Eastern cultures have been using clay masks for generations to improve skin, hair and digestive ailments. Commercial clay masks still contain added fragrances, or colourings which can have a negative impact on the skin, some may contain hormone disruptors, carcinogens and toxic ingredients. Consider using naturally organically derived clays as a mask, to reset and balance the complexion, naturally.
Environmental protection
Free radicals are scavengers in the environment that can cause additional damage when the levels of antioxidants are low. Use the best protection to protect the skin from the most harmful damage that causes skin ageing and cancers. Air pollution has been seen, in research to stimulate skin inflammation and impairs collage again leading to the breakdown of collagen and elastin that supports the structure of the skin.
Nourishment from within
Vitamin A, Retinols, Anti-oxidants, Niacinamide or Ferulic acids willgreatly improve and elevate your skincare and beauty routine, also enjoy a nutrient rich diet. Food and health supplements that include magnesium, potassium and calcium, combined with proper hydration and sufficient sleep, may deliver healthy immune support. A balanced diet, excercise regime, and reduction in mental stress will improve the quality skin, hair and nails, working wonders to reduce fine lines, wrinkles and the initial signs of premature ageing.
Say a huge NO to most or all synthetic sugars, frequently used will cause sensitivity and damage to the skin barrier. Reduce the use of caffeine and alcohol for a balalnced radiant complexion. Vitamins including A+ C with serums and moisturisers are beneficial in skin repair, immunity support and protection.
A balanced use of supplements, organic vegetables and scale balanced nutrition can aid positive gut health, top tips include staying hydrated. During the Winter months when the temperature is raised or becomes drier, especially when at home or work with additional air conditioning, by lowering the home or office temperature you can support the hydration of the skin. Stop using hot water when washing the face, only use cool water or products that contain nourishing and moisturising ingredients, one of the main favourites include the popular hyaluronic acid molecule is a humectant that retains moisture naturally found in the human body.
Beauty Essentials for hydration and cleansing
Drinking water is one of the most effective tool for internal detoxification, incorporate hydration into your daily routine, to flush out the toxins from your liver and kidneys. Rinse your face with cool to cold water to eliminate the beginning of broken capillaries, red veins, rosacea, when attending the Gym, wash away sweat immediately after working workouts. Cleanse your phone from bacteria on a regular basis, AVOID touching your face to minimise exposure to germs and bacteria, clogged pores can look enlarged or bumpy and blackheads or comedones may appear once the pore becomes clogged with skin dirt and natural oils.
To reduce sensitivity use naturally or organically derived botanicals, source ingredients that are fragrance free. There are many brands that contain botanicals, science with natural plant based goodness that seal in moisture, keep the skin protected with SPF, and dont add unnecessary products to your skincare ritual.
Targeted and effective skincare Rituals
Protect the skin equilibrium by incorporating nourishing serums, treatment oils and vitamin boosters. Vitamin C is recognised for its brightening properties and rich antioxidants, can protect your skin from free radicals, fine lines and loss of brightness. Tailor your skin routine with the best active ingredients for your budget, address specific concerns immediately and boost overall skin health.
