Welcome to The Skin Wizard by David Horne PgCert

I’m David Horne, also known as The Skin Wizard. My journey through the global beauty industry has taught me one thing: true beauty and confidence come from a positive mood, mindset, and healthy, radiant skin. 

My mission is simple—everything that brings you joy, I support.

The Skin Wizard Difference: Fresh, Clean, and Natural

As The Skin Wizard, I believe that the secret to glowing skin lies in fresh, natural formulations. That’s why I personally blend and create each skin [F]ormulation daily, dispatching it within 48 hours to ensure your skincare is as fresh as possible. By minimising harsh chemicals and embracing clean ingredients, I help you restore your natural glow and embrace your authentic self.

A Global Perspective on stealth Skin Health

With over 25 years as a Global Professional Makeup Artist and product designer, I’ve encountered countless complexions and skin concerns. This experience has given me unique insights into how to maintain and create a naturally glowing complexion. My philosophy? ...‘Skin realism’ - It’s about embracing the best version of ourselves and achieving a stealthy, revealing beauty that boosts confidence and diminishes insecurities.

The Gut-Skin-Brain Axis: Wellness from Within

Glowing skin starts from within. There’s a proven connection between what you eat and your skin’s health. By making small changes to your daily diet, you can significantly improve your complexion. Here’s how:

1. Eat the rainbow: Fill your plate with colourful, nutrient-rich foods.

2. Prioritise gut health: Add prebiotics and probiotics to your diet.

3. Hydrate wisely: Consider hydrogen water for enhanced hydration.

Simplify Your Routine: Skin + Wellness

My approach to skincare is about simplicity and purity. By reducing the number of harsh chemicals and opting for freshly made, natural skincare, we help you repair your skin barrier and eliminate the irritation caused by layering conflicting products. The result? Healthy, vibrant skin that reflects your inner well-being.

Psychodermatology: Mind, Mood, and Skin

There’s an undeniable link between psychology and dermatology. Reducing stress and enhancing your mood can reinstate your skin’s natural glow. I know this firsthand—like many, I struggled with my skin as a teenager and found that my confidence soared when my skin was at its best. 

Expertise Rooted in Experience

My career in the beauty industry has been a unique journey through roles as a Professional Makeup Artist, Fashion Week Makeup Designer, Brand Training Director, Academic Educator and Product Development Director. I’ve launched brand collections, trained international clientele at my Professional Make up Artistry studio The House of GlamDolls, and worked at a prestigious London skin clinic on Harley Street. Now, I bring all these experiences together to offer you products and advice that are grounded in real expertise. 

Mindful Indulgences: Joy in Every Moment

Beyond my skin [F]ormulations, I’ve also created a collection of positive mood enhancing mindful moment chocolates and relaxation emotive votive candles. These mindful indulgences are designed to bring moments of joy and calm into your daily life—because beauty is more than skin deep.

The Back Story: A Journey of Recalibration

In 2020, during the COVID-19 lockdown, I, like many others, found myself reflecting on life’s pace and quality. It was a pivotal moment—an epiphany that led me to recalibrate my life choices. I shifted focus to my passions, simplified my skincare routine, and embraced a more mindful lifestyle. From this journey, The Skin Wizard brand was born.
