Our clients just love using this serum. We sell out quickly 😉

✨ Not All Vitamin C Serums Are Created Equal ✨

If you’ve ever used a Vitamin C serum that stings, turns yellow quickly, or just doesn’t seem to work — the type of Vitamin C might be the reason.

💡 We use Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate (THDA) — an oil-soluble form of Vitamin C — while many brands still rely on water-soluble Vitamin C.

Here’s why that matters 👇

🌿 Why THDA is different (and better):
✔️ Far more stable – resists oxidation, so it stays effective for longer
✔️ Gentler on skin – no low pH, no burning or redness
✔️ Deeper pe*******on – works with your skin’s natural lipid barrier
✔️ Suitable for sensitive skin – even for daily use

💧 Water-soluble Vitamin C (commonly used by other brands):
⚠️ Breaks down faster when exposed to air, light & water
⚠️ Often requires low pH, which can cause irritation

🔍 How to identify the type of Vitamin C on the ingredient list:

👉 Water-soluble Vitamin C usually appears as:
• Ascorbic Acid
• Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate
• Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate
• Ascorbyl Glucoside

👉 Oil-soluble Vitamin C (what we use):
• Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate (THDA)

💬 Pro tip: Ingredient lists are written in order of concentration — if Vitamin C appears near the top, it’s doing real work.

Your skin deserves effective Vitamin C without irritation or instability — that’s why we chose THDA. ✨

✨ Wisdom Wednesday: Know Your Skin with the Fitzpatrick Scale!

Ever wonder how we personalize your Healthy Skin journey at Meraki Health? It starts with the Fitzpatrick Scale!

💡 What is the Fitzpatrick Scale?
It's a quick, simple way to classify your skin's response to UV light (the sun!). It ranges from Type I (very fair, always burns) to Type VI (very dark, rarely burns).

📌Type I & II: Very sensitive, high burn risk.
📌Type III & IV: Moderate sensitivity, can tan but still burns.
📌Type V & VI: Least sensitive, tans easily, low burn risk (but still needs sun protection!).

How We Apply It to Your Personal Skin Journey at Meraki Health, the Fitzpatrick score is a crucial piece of your personal skin map! It dictates:

⚫Treatment Safety: It helps us safely select the right lasers, peels, and light therapies for your skin tone, minimizing the risk of pigmentation issues or burns.
⚫Product Efficacy: It guides the selection of ingredients and formulations that will work best and gentlest for your unique skin type.
⚫Sun Protection: It informs your personalized recommendations for SPF and sun-safe practices, ensuring you're protected against premature aging and skin damage.

Your skin is unique! We don't believe in one-size-fits-all. The Fitzpatrick Scale ensures every step on your journey is safe, effective, and perfectly tailored to achieve your best Personal Healthy Skin!

Dermaplaning & Microneedling Timing

​Maximize serum and peptide absorption! You can dermaplane a few days before or on the same day as your microneedling session. Serums soak in better with dead skin cells and peach fuzz out of the way.

​Crucial rule: Wait TWO WEEKS after microneedling before dermaplaning again.

​Book your enhanced treatment: 0828741653.
