We know great skin doesn't just 'happen', (though there are a few anomalies) and with the COVID-19 (coronavirus) lockdown, all this time indoors is no doubt having an impact on your skin. Whether you're over indulging on chocolate or Chardonnay wine (aren't we all?), spending more time in the sun (while we can!), or finding the stress of it all getting to you, it's likely to be showing in your face. So if it's summer skin care, blemish clearing products or something for a little R&R, a virtual beauty appointment may be just the thing.
Various clinics and specialists are hosting virtual beauty consultations and various other services designed to do just that. Here's our pick of some worth looking into, and while you're here be sure to read our piece on the best beauty and spa treatments for 2020.
