When a client walked into Gill’s treatment room at Studio 333 for the very first time, she’d never had a facial in her life. Her concerns? Dryness, dullness, and persistent puffiness under the eyes. Just six SkinBase Hydro Facials later, she couldn’t believe the transformation – not just in her skin, but in how she felt. We spoke to Gill, a dedicated SkinBase therapist, about this glowing journey from a first facial to total skin confidence.

SkinBase Hydro at Studio 333
For June Wilson, skincare was uncharted territory. She had never had a facial before, but when concerns about under eye puffiness and dryness became hard to ignore, she turned to someone she trusted: Gillian Banks, a therapist at Studio 333 and a passionate advocate for the SkinBase Hydro Facial.

Redefining Confidence
What followed was a six-treatment skincare journey that not only transformed June’s skin, but also redefined how she felt about herself. “After a course of 6 Hydro treatments,” she said “My skin now looks and feels amazing…”
First Steps Into Professional Skincare
After seeing videos online of the SkinBase Hydro Facial treatment, June took her first steps into the world of professional skincare. Getting started couldn’t have been easier. Gillian offered her support and expertise, conducting a thorough consultation, and soon June was looking forward to her very first facial!
From Dull to Dewy
With each session, the transformation became more visible. “Her skin was smooth and flawless as treatments progressed.” Gillian recalls. But one detail stood out more than any other: her skin was glowing, and as such, her under eye area was brighter and less puffy. This area was a particular concern for June, so she was thrilled with the transformation.
“I cannot believe the difference to my under eye area – the hydration and glow…”

Trust the Process & Take the Leap
For those who’ve never had a facial before, Gillian has a simple message: trust the process and try the Hydro Facial. “I absolutely love Hydro and encourage all clients to try this. The products are amazing and leave your skin so smooth and fresh.” As a skincare therapist, Gillian knows what happens outside the treatment room is equally important to maximising results, and emphasises this to all of her clients.

The Key to Long Lasting Results…
“It’s important to make your client aware of aftercare especially after a facial,” she warns. “So many clients are using all the wrong products.” And her number one skincare tip for maintaining the results long-term? “Definitely SPF.” You can get your hands on the SkinBase Daily Protect SPF too, just head over to the SkinBase shop.

Transformation of the Year 2025
Thanks to Gillian’s expertise and the power of the SkinBase Hydro Facial, June’s transformation was more than skin deep. It was about confidence, trust, and taking the first step toward self-care. Her skin, and outlook, have never looked brighter. Now, Gillian and June are both proud finalists for the SkinBase Transformation of the Year 2025 competition, and it’s easy to see why!
