The Next Big Things in Skin With Sydney’s ‘If You Know, You Know’ Facialist, Carina Gross

It’s not every day we get to spend time with Sydney’s best-kept skin secret. That’s why Amy Clark took over the You Beauty studio this week to bring you an interview with facialist of 30 years, Carina Gross.

Long-time You Beauty listeners may know Carina as the owner of Belaméres skin clinic and the creator of the ‘fairy Dust’ skin treatment. She’s worked with thousands of women on their skin goals (including You Beauty’s own Leigh Campbell!), and specialises in a non-invasive, no bullsh*t approach to achieving healthy skin.

On this episode of The Formula, Carina reveals the under-the-radar technologies and treatments no one else is really talking about, and the one thing that can make a major difference in your skin, starting tomorrow. She also unpacks the most common skin concerns she sees in clinic and why we see our skin change after 40, and shares the skincare analogies that settle the debate of whether consistent skincare or consistent skin treatments will deliver better results.

Plus, Carina takes us inside her bathroom and breaks down her simple skincare routine (hint: it includes some little-known brands she reckons deserve more hype), along with her current spendy and savey product recommendations that shocked Amy to the core.
