Client Reviews
"I've been going to Gillian for about 10 years now, and I honestly wouldn't trust anyone else with my skin. Her new clinic is stunning, and the level of care, expertise, and treatment is as amazing as ever. If you're dealing with breakouts or your skin just feels like it needs a fresh start, I highly recommend the Obagi Blue Radiance Peel. It leaves my skin looking clearer, brighter, and completely refreshed. Gillian is hands down the best in the skincare business. She really takes the time to understand your skin and recommends what will actually work for you. Whether you have specific skin concerns or just want to treat yourself, book a visit to Skin Ethos. You'll be in the best hands and leave feeling fantastic every time.’’
— Marcella“Just had my first session of skin pen with Gillian in preparation for my wedding. Her salon is beautiful and very clean. Gillian is very knowledgeable and was able to answer any questions I had, and thoroughly talked me through the treatment. Will definitely be a returning client”
— Becca“I had a skin detox facial at Skin Ethos Clinic and it was an excellent experience. Gillian was extremely professional and very knowledgeable, taking time to discuss my skin thoroughly before starting the treatment. The facial was a deep‑cleansing treatment using steam, DermaQuest products, and Dermalux LED, and also included milia removal, all carried out with great care.
The treatment left my skin feeling calmer and clearer with no downtime at all. The clinic itself is spotless, gorgeous, and very relaxing. I’ll definitely be back and highly recommend Skin Ethos Clinic”
