ZIIP Halo Device

Use the code RACHELZIIP you can save 20%

The ZIIP HALO Microcurrent Facial Device is one of my favourite devices, and it uses Dual Waveform Technology which is designed to give both immediate and long-lasting effects, it does this through the use of varying frequencies of both nanocurrent and microcurrent waves.

Microcurrent stimulates the muscles to contract and relax, causing an immediate lift and instant skin tightening, think more facial definition, blurred fine lines and that lifted appearance, delivering instant results that can be seen up to 72 hours.  Then with the Nanocurrent, it uses tiny electrical wavelengths to sync with the body’s natural current on a cellular level, resulting in younger-looking skin. Blur fine lines and wrinkles, fade scarring and even out your skin tone for long-term rejuvenation. 

The app is fantastic and an excellent companion to your HALO. It offers a wide range of treatment options, from quick touch-ups to more intensive facials, all demonstrated by ZIIP founder Melanie Simon. You can tailor your routine by mixing and matching treatments to get the most out of your device or follow the structured treatment plans provided for extra guidance.

Alongside the included Electric Complex Gel, there are three additional gels available: 
  • Silver for deep hydration, 
  • Crystal for radiance, and 
  • Golden for a collagen boost. 
I am currently using the Silver Gel —it’s packed with hydrating ingredients like low molecular weight hyaluronic acid, which deeply nourishes the skin while ensuring optimal conductivity for the device. It also contains soothing botanical extracts like aloe and cucumber, making it perfect for calming the skin during treatments. ZIIP's Silver Gel serves as both a conductive medium for microcurrent and nanocurrent facial treatments and as a potent skincare product that delivers multiple benefits. Its formulation is designed to enhance the efficacy of ZIIP devices while nourishing and revitalizing the skin.

A standout feature of the Silver Gel is its intense hydrating capability, primarily due to the inclusion of a sophisticated, low molecular weight hyaluronic acid sourced from Japan. This form of hyaluronic acid penetrates deeply into the skin, providing immediate and sustained hydration, resulting in a firmer and more supple complexion.

To soothe and calm the skin, the gel incorporates natural extracts such as cucumber and aloe. These ingredients are known for their anti-inflammatory and cooling properties, making the Silver Gel particularly suitable for individuals with sensitive or reactive skin.

Additionally, the gel contains finely crushed pearl, which promotes collagen production and enhances skin luminosity. This ingredient contributes to a brighter and more radiant complexion, addressing concerns related to dullness and uneven skin tone.

When used in conjunction with ZIIP's electrical currents, the Silver Gel facilitates up to 120% better absorption of these active ingredients, maximizing their effectiveness. This synergy not only optimizes the device's performance but also ensures that the skin receives comprehensive care, resulting in a hydrated, soothed, and radiant appearance.

So why the Halo Effect? Well as with all devices, you need to use them frequently and as best as you can, stick to the guidance given to get these named effects. In the case of this ZIIP Halo Device, that Halo Effect is what you can expect to see after 6 weeks of consistently using your device.

Priced at £379 but if you use the code RACHELZIIP you can save 20%

Planning a Last-Minute Spa Getaway

Do you often feel like you need a significant break, but finding the time for elaborate travel plans seems impossible? That feeling of overwhelming stress can be a clear sign your body and mind are crying out for a reset.

Last-minute spa getaways in the UK offer an ideal solution, combining luxurious pampering with minimal planning fuss.

In this article, we’ll explore how you can swiftly secure the perfect retreat, choose the right treatments and pack your bags for instant relaxation.

Choosing the right UK destination

You first need to narrow down your options by deciding on an area that works best for you.

If a long drive feels counterproductive to your relaxing mission, look at reputable spas within a short distance of home. This simple check will save you valuable time. If you decide to drive further afield to reach a top destination spa, you should absolutely factor in reliable transport.

If you plan to borrow a car for the journey, for instance, you must arrange comprehensive cheap temporary car insurance before you set off. This ensures you comply with legal requirements and travel with complete peace of mind.

Treatments and beauty options

Spa treatment choices can sometimes feel overwhelming, but you should simplify your choice by thinking about what you need most.

Do you feel tense muscles from a week of work? Then you should prioritise a deep-tissue or hot stone massage. If you want a rejuvenating glow, you must look into targeted facial packages.

Many resorts offer specific half-day or evening packages designed for short visits, often bundling facility access with one key treatment like a full-body scrub or an express facial.

What to pack for your spa getaway

Comfort is your main priority, and you should pack a minimal but effective selection of clothing.

Even though the spa will provide a fluffy robe and slippers for general use, you will want to bring two swimsuits. This simple step guarantees you never have to put on a soggy costume between the various water facilities.

A pair of your own comfortable flip-flops is also a great addition, offering better grip and personal hygiene than the disposable ones sometimes provided.

Finally, a small, waterproof bag keeps your book or magazine dry when you move between the thermal suites and the relaxation lounge.

Last-minute bookings

To secure a last-minute spot, you must look for late spa deals on mid-week dates or check for cancellations within 48 hours.

Spas often release unsold slots at discounted rates or offer special late-availability packages to fill gaps. You should check the offers pages of major spa booking websites, as they often aggregate last-minute deals.

Making the most of your stay

Once you arrive, switch your phone to silent and truly disconnect from all outside distractions. People often worry about their schedules, but you should commit to fully embracing the spa's timetable.

Take the opportunity to explore the facilities beyond your treatment time, such as the sauna, steam room, and hydrotherapy pools are integral to the detox and relaxation process.

Allow yourself to lounge peacefully, slow down and simply exist in the moment.
