HydraFacial is everywhere. It’s on your feed, your aesthetician recommends it, and half the skincare accounts you follow have posted a glowing selfie right after one. None of that answers the question you came here with: is HydraFacial worth it for your skin and your money? We’re not going to give you a sales pitch….
Careful shaving does not always stop the bumps. If you deal with small, tender bumps along your jaw or neck within a day of shaving, it is not because you are doing something wrong. Razor bumps on dark skin are among the most common and misunderstood skin concerns we see at Skintisfaction. There is a…
You are in your 30s, you eat reasonably well, you wash your face, and you are still breaking out. Not the occasional spot before your period, but persistent, frustrating breakouts along your jaw and chin that feel like they belong to a teenager, not a professional woman managing a career and a household in Lagos….
If you’re a man in Lagos who’s never given skincare much thought beyond soap and water, you’re not alone. Most skincare advice online is written for women, and the little that does mention men usually feels like an afterthought tacked onto the end of a beauty article. That leaves a lot of professional men either…
When a baby arrives, the conversation shifts entirely to the child. The feeds, the sleep, the milestones. What is happening to the mother’s body (particularly the changes below the waist that no one prepared her for) rarely gets discussed.

You do everything right for most of the month. Your skin is relatively clear, your routine is consistent, and things feel manageable. Then, like clockwork, the breakouts arrive. Same time, same location, same frustration. If this pattern sounds familiar, you are not imagining it. Hormonal acne in Nigeria is one of the most common skin…
You are eating regularly, not skipping meals, and your skin still is not cooperating. Understanding how diet affects your skin goes beyond whether you are eating enough. It is about what you are eating, how often, and what that is doing to your skin over time. This is not a clean-eating article. It is a…
The morning after a night out, your skin usually tells the story before you do. Puffiness, dullness, and that slightly tight feeling even after cleansing. You do not look sick exactly, but you do not look your best either. Most people drink some water, get on with their day, and assume it will sort itself…
You’ve sorted your skincare routine. You’re drinking water, getting some sleep, using decent products. And yet your skin keeps doing things you can’t explain: breaking out on a schedule, going dull during your worst weeks at work, or shifting in texture for no obvious reason. If this sounds familiar, hormones are probably involved. And they’re…
There are conversations women in Lagos have privately that rarely make it to a doctor’s appointment. Changes that happen after childbirth. Symptoms that feel too personal to raise. Questions about a treatment category that sounds either intimidating or vague, depending on where you read about it. Searches for non-surgical vaginal rejuvenation in Lagos have been…
