Hum2n Bone Strong Therapy, from £1,000

Developed in line with Wolff’s Law — the scientific principle that bone tissue adapts to the stress placed upon it — Hum2n’s Bone Strong therapy uses brief, high-intensity mechanical loading that is said to trigger the body’s natural bone-building response. Each 20–30 minute session applies controlled resistance to key skeletal areas such as the hips and spine, aiming to promote improved bone density, posture, and muscular strength. The therapy offers a low-impact, science-led approach to maintaining skeletal health, supported by research in osteogenic adaptation and bone physiology. www.hum2n.com

NAD⁺ Anti-Fatigue IV Infusion, £449

At The NAD Clinic, an intravenous infusion delivers Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD⁺) — a coenzyme essential for cellular energy production and DNA repair — directly into the bloodstream for optimal absorption. According to the clinic’s medical team, NAD⁺ levels naturally decline with age and stress, which may contribute to fatigue, cognitive fog, and slower recovery. The 60–90 minute infusion aims to restore cellular energy and vitality, with clients typically completing a short course of treatments for cumulative results. www.nadclinic.com

Justine Masters The Alternative Facialist, £350

Renowned among her patients for her results-driven, non-invasive approach, facialist Justine Masters will create a bespoke facial which combines Radiofrequency (RF), Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS), and Cryotherapy by Gelida, a non-invasive device which is reportedly capable of freezing unwanted and stubborn fat, tightening skin and improving the appearance of cellulite. Each session uses these techniques to stimulate collagen production, improve muscle tone, and enhance circulation to deliver a firmer, more radiant complexion without injectables. www.justinemasters.london

Test results are available within one to two weeks and are believed to provide insight into underlying imbalances before they become chronic conditions. Their goal?

Nejati Dental Clinic Mahsa x Sarah Bradden Combines Body Cleansing & Oral Detox Treatment, £595

A collaboration between cosmetic dentist Dr Mahsa Nejati and holistic practitioner Sarah Bradden, this 90-minute treatment combines oral health optimisation with facial rejuvenation. The session begins with Guided Biofilm Therapy and Airflow Technology to deeply cleanse the mouth, remove bacteria, and target gum inflammation, which may be a factor linked to cardiovascular and metabolic health; according to research. Next, an herbal antiseptic gel infused with rosemary and thyme is applied, activated by red LED light to help boost circulation and cellular repair, before the second phase, led by Bradden, integrates acupuncture, acupressure, and LED light therapy, said to help sculpt the face, stimulate collagen, and restore energy flow. www.nejaticlinic.com

The post Luxury Skincare Creams You’ll Want To Treat Yourself To appeared first on Best of Living.

Why do you think people often get their skincare routine wrong?

“There’s many different reasons for this, starting with a lack of proper knowledge. Mismatching products, too, can be detrimental, as well as using products that are not suited to your skin type or concerns, such as heavy creams on oily skin which are more suitable for dry. Many of us are guilty of overcomplicating routines: step after step after step may look appealing, but too many products can disrupt your skin’s barrier. There’s also inconsistent use to factor in, as jumping from product to product often backfires; and you shouldn’t ignore ingredients, either: strong actives like retinol and acids together can lead to irritation or damage.”

What are the most common skincare mistakes we do without realising?

“Over-exfoliation, as using scrubs too often damages the skin barrier. Skipping sunscreen is a huge no-no, as UV damage is a major cause of aging and hyperpigmentation. Not moisturising oily skin is also a mistake – people who have this skin type think they don’t need moisturisers, but dehydration can actually cause more oil production.”

What products could actually be damaging your skin?

“Harsh physical exfoliants, as these can cause microtears and skin irritation. Again, the overuse of strong actives such as retinoids, acids, and benzoyl peroxide, which can damage the skin barrier and lead to peeling or redness. High-foaming or alcohol-heavy cleansers can strip the skin’s natural oils, while fragrance-heavy products – especially for sensitive skin– can trigger irritation. And don’t forget about keeping products that have expired: while you may well think there’s nothing wrong with them, they can actually harbour bacteria or lose efficacy.”

Why should we cut a skincare product out?

“If there’s immediate signs of irritation: think redness, stinging, burning, peeling, or breakouts after introducing a product. A prolonged lack of improvement also indicates it’s time to stop: if it hasn’t helped after six to eight weeks it’s likely it won’t be working – unless it’s a slow-acting product like retinoids. If your skin type changes; for example due to weather, pregnancy or medications; then your products may no longer be suitable; and if there’s a bad smell or texture change it could indicate it’s expired or become contaminated.”

How can we ensure we’re using the best skincare products?

“Know your type: dry, oily, combination, sensitive, or acne-prone – this is the foundation when choosing. For oily skin look for non-comedogenic, gel-based, or mattifying products, whereas dry skin should be cream-based and hydrating. Skin on the sensitive side? Opt for fragrance-free, minimal-ingredient formulas. Just be sure to listen to your skin, as if something causes dryness, tightness, or breakouts it may not be right – even if it’s a popular brand.”

What else should do so we know we’re not using the wrong products?

“Consult a doctor: they’re trained to recommend medical grade skincare products to treat skin conditions such as acne, pigmentation, eczema or rosacea.”
