Bartel looked to be her own best advertisement as she stepped out in beige slacks, a white crop top and baggy white shirt from her own fashion label Henne.
The brunette beauty accessorised only with a pair of chunky, comfortable brown sandals as she spent much of the time checking messages on her mobile phone.
Posting a number of stories to her Instagram account later that day, the mother-of-two documented her shocking reaction to the facial.

She said she had the laser treatment before but went especially hard this time for ‘max results’ which left her ‘bloody sore’.
Nevertheless, she was adamant the results would be worth the pain as she showed her skin looking visibly red and bumpy after the procedure.
‘It hurts sooo much (as we went really strong for max results) but I had this a year ago and the results are worth it,’ Bartel wrote on her story alongside a video of her getting the treatment done.

During the procedure, she is heard telling her beauty therapist: ‘I’m shaking through the pain. I’m not going to lie and say it wasn’t painful. It was super painful.’
The therapist then explained that Bartel did have an allergic reaction to the laser, but it was nothing to be concerned about.
‘It’s really normal to get a histamine response. Hers is particularly strong. You can see it’s already gone lumpy and bumpy, so we will have to get her onto anti-histamines. It’ll be a very long week,’ she said in the video.

Showing her followers her face while sitting in the car after the procedure, Bartel said: ‘This is my skin after pico laser. It looks hectic, I can admit, and it was bloody sore.
‘But the results are insane and we went harder than we did last time. So I will keep you guys posted.’
Picosure is a non-surgical laser skin treatment which can be used to address the majority of common skin imperfections, including spots caused by sun damage and acne scarring.
