GOOD SKIN FROM WITHIN WITH LONDON’S FAVORITE FACIALIST ADA OOI

Ada Ooi’s approach to skincare has made her one of the most sought after facialists on the red carpet. Regular clients include Lily Allen, Ellie Goulding and Rooney Mara, just to name a few. Using both acupuncture and aromatherapy in her practice, Ooi believes in treating skin from within. For her, complexion is an accurate mirror of state of internal wellbeing.

Ada’s own beauty label, 001 Skincare, brings this unique experience of holistic beauty to the at-home skin regimen. During lockdown period, the 001 Skincare online shop is a great source and reference that offers: digital skin analysis as well as virtual skin consultations with Ada herself. There are also cleansers, creams, serums, formulations and other skin innovations available to address various skin concerns.

For sagging or tired looking skin, Ada Ooi’s 001 Skincare team recommends: “A facial massage bring blood to the skin’s surface giving you an instant glow. A gentle massage helps to tone the underlying muscles and promotes increased support for the top layers of our skin. This increases support serves to pull the skin tight and ultimately reduces the appearance of sagging skin.” The Microsculptor No. 1 The Pick takes inspiration from Traditional Chinese Medicine. It functions like a fashion massage tool that induces: Gua Shan and Meridian stimulation, lymphatic drainage, connective tissue manipulation, microcirculation, release of fluid retention and skin de-puffing.

For optimum results, Ada Ooi recommends application of three to five drops of New Vit-F Sebum Detox Concetrate or Vit-A Repair and Regrow Concentrate on face and neck. “Use the microSculptor to massage skin in small even strokes with firm pressure. Repeat between five to 10 times.” Those who are long time clients of Ada Ooi and 001 Skincare may have a preference for the award-wining Intensive Elixir which is a youth boost in a bottle. This serum is “crafted with three precious essential oils, four refined bio-dynamic oils and four pure plant extracts to meet the tough skincare demands of unstable environmental factors in city life.”

The 001 Skincare website makes it easy to create your own at-home derma experience as it categorizes products and technologies according to concern. This would include: skin dehydration, acne or oily skin, fine lines or wrinkles, pigmentation and skin dullness as well as skin sensitivities. Regardless of skin type or treatment available on the 001 Skincare sphere, Ada and her team stay committed to one mantra as they help to address various conditions: “Return skin to a natural state of equilibrium.”
