Welcome to The Sims Twins Skin School
Welcome to The Sims Twins Skin School — your trusted destination for evidence-based skin education, expert advice and everything you need to make informed decisions about your skin.
We’re Natalie and Laura Sims, twin sisters, founders of Gisborne Skin Clinic, and award-winning facialists with over 15 years of experience dedicated exclusively to skin health.
Throughout our careers, we’ve had the privilege of treating thousands of clients, working alongside leading global skincare brands, attending advanced education around the world and being recognised within the industry for our commitment to clinical excellence and results-driven care. Our work has also been featured across leading media publications, allowing us to share our philosophy on skin health with a wider audience.
But one thing has remained constant: education is the foundation of great skin.
In an industry filled with trends, conflicting advice and endless product recommendations, we wanted to create a place where you could access trusted, professional guidance backed by clinical experience.
That’s why we created The Sims Twins Skin School.
This is more than a blog—it’s an educational resource designed to help you understand your skin, rather than simply treat it.
Here, we’ll share our knowledge on:
- Skin health and how skin functions
- Evidence-based skincare ingredients
- Product recommendations and how to use them correctly
- Professional treatment advice
- The latest innovations in Skin Health
- Skin concerns including ageing, pigmentation, acne, rosacea and sensitivity
- Treatment preparation, recovery and aftercare
- Seasonal skincare advice
- Lifestyle factors that influence skin health
- Common skincare myths—and what the science actually says
Our philosophy has always been simple: healthy skin is built through consistency, education and personalised care—not quick fixes.
Whether you’re beginning your skincare journey or looking to deepen your understanding of professional skin treatments, our goal is to empower you with knowledge you can trust.
We believe that when you understand why you’re using a product or investing in a treatment, you’re far more likely to achieve lasting, meaningful results.
Thank you for being here and for joining our growing community.
We’re excited to share everything we’ve learnt over the past 15 years and hope this becomes your go-to destination for trusted skin health advice.
Welcome to The Sims Twins Skin School.
