Enjoy a Nelson holiday after the holidays!

December 19, 2018 by w b

It’s that time of year again! You’ve decked your halls, wrapped your gifts and attended numerous Christmas parties. Now you’re waiting for the arrival of your many house guests. This time of year is full-on. It’s no wonder, so many of us feel frazzled by the beginning of January! This year why not plan a Nelson holiday, after the holidays to ease you into 2019.

Here are three ways you can enjoy a Nelson holiday after the holidays!

Be a tourist in your backyard.

We’re so lucky to live in beautiful Nelson. So take time out to appreciate everything that’s on offer. You could cycle the Great Taste Trail or kayak in Abel Tasman. Choose just one day to be a tourist in your backyard, relax and enjoy!
Head to the beach.

Who doesn’t love a beach holiday? And in the Nelson region, we have plenty to choose from. Don’t forget to prepare for your beach excursion with a visit to Woman Beauty. We have a full range of Ultraceuticals sun protection to fill your Nelson holiday beach bag. A Sunescape spray tan and a wax in all the right places will get you swimsuit ready. We are open until 24th December and have taken on extra staff so you can prepare for your Nelson beach holiday.
Escape to the Islands

Promise yourself a Nelson holiday staycation in the New Year at Woman Beauty. A Fiji Holiday treatment is the perfect way to recharge your batteries after the excesses of the festive season. Take half a day to pretend you are on holiday. Start with the signature Tropical Paradise Ritual, enjoy crème scrub exfoliation followed by a relaxing massage with exotic oil then be painted with body butter, wrapped up while enjoying a Fijian scalp treatment with warm oil. This pampering wouldn’t be complete without adding a spa manicure and pedicure then enjoy time out with a complimentary refreshment in the relax lounge. The perfect gift to add to your Christmas wishlist! We reopen on Monday 7th January, so book your New Year treat to yourself, today!

Happy holidays from the whole team at Woman Beauty!

Get party ready in Nelson

December 12, 2018 by w b

The festive season is almost upon us, which means it’s time to get ‘party ready’. At Woman Beauty Day Spa in Nelson we can help you do exactly that!

Five ways to get party ready in Nelson

Get your glow on

Who doesn’t want refreshed, luminous skin for party nights? We know it’s a busy time of year, but that doesn’t mean you can’t give your skin a pre-Christmas treat with a facial. The Ultra Power Facial includes a cleanse, peel and mask. It takes just thirty minutes so can be scheduled into your lunchtime. If you can spare a little more time, the Advanced Signature Facial utilises advanced serums, peels and masks to correct skin imperfections. Check out our full range of facials HERE.
Brows that WOW and luscious lashes

Professional brow and lash tinting will add depth and colour to your eyes. Say adios to light, feathery eyebrows and spindly eyelashes. Let our professional beauty therapists give you party ready peepers with an Eyelash and Eyebrow Tint and Tidy – book yours here!
Prepare for your party frock

Step into your summer party frock feeling fuzz-free and lightly tanned. For perfectly smooth party legs invest in a full-leg wax. And if you don’t want to wear tights but still want a flawless golden glow a Sunescape spray tan is just the ticket!
Meet and greet with a mani

Make a marvellous first impression when you’re shaking hands with new acquaintances. Again, a mini manicure takes just thirty-minutes so you can squeeze one in to your lunch break. Go for a Shellac finish to be sure your fingers stay flawlessly finished throughout the festive season.
Get your glam on

Parties are the ideal opportunity to step up the glamour a little (or a lot!), so why not get party ready by updating your make up look? Here at Woman Beauty in Nelson, we are proud to offer you Jane Iredale make up. This high-performing mineral cosmetics range provides effective skincare benefits with modern, wearable colour and a soft-focus, luminous effect that brings your natural beauty to light.

To ensure none of you miss out on appointments before we close for our annual break, we have called in Holly Poirier to help in the lead up to Christmas. Be sure to ask for her when making your appointment if she is the therapist you would like to see. We will be booking appointments right up to 2:00 p.m. on Monday 24th December. Contact us to arrange yours!

Your Nelson Spring Beauty Checklist

October 25, 2018 by w b

Here at Woman Beauty Nelson, we’re rather fond of a checklist… Checklists help us stay on track so we can provide you with the excellent service we’re known for. But who’d have thought that checklists have their own celebratory day? It’s true! 30th October is official ‘Checklist Day’… So, to celebrate we thought we’d publish your spring beauty checklist.

Your Nelson Spring Beauty Checklist

Face up to the new season

A change of season means it’s time for fresh, clear complexions. Our Advanced Facial Therapies will help you put your best face forward. Our much-loved O2 facial is a firm favourite and provides instant results you can see and feel.

Fight the fuzz

Those layers are coming off. So, if you’ve been leaving it a little longer between wax appointments, now is the time to recommence your regular bookings.

A golden glow

Once you’ve smoothed things out a bit, you’re ready to bare your limbs. Or are you? Why not make an entrance with a golden glow. A Sunescape spray tan will give you a feel-good boost for spring.

Treat those tootsies

It’s time to say goodbye to your winter boots and reach for your jandals. Your feet have probably been cooped up in their winter layers for a few months. So why not give them a little TLC before the big reveal! Our popular Soul to Sole is the ultimate treat for feet.

A pop of colour

Spring is the time to lighten and brighten things up. And that includes your makeup bag. So give it a spring clean and lighten it up by getting rid of all those dried up tubes and palettes. And brighten it up with a pop of colour. The new seasonal range of Jane Iredale mineral makeup is available at Woman Beauty Nelson. And if this spring beauty checklist hasn’t been enough reading, you might want to pop over and read this article for some spring makeup trends.

We can’t wait to help you complete your spring beauty checklist. Call 03 548 0030 for bookings.

Your holiday countdown beauty checklist

March 21, 2018 by w b

Easter is quite literally around the corner, and if you’ve booked an Island getaway over the holiday period this post is for you… It’s your holiday countdown beauty checklist!

holiday countdown beauty checklist

Face your Feet – You might not have placed your sandals back in the closet yet, so the chances are your feet may be in fairly good shape… But sometimes wearing jandals and bare feet over the summer months can lead to hard skin and cracked heels… So before you head away treat yourself to a spa pedicure. Be sure to choose a Shellac finish, so your painted toes stay in tip-top condition over your holiday. Soul to Sole, the ultimate treat for feet, is currently one of our Autumn specials, and a great way to relax into holiday mode!

Fight the Fuzz – Check out our range of waxing treatments HERE. If you’re heading to the Islands, we’d recommend a full leg and bikini wax, so you feel perfectly confident in your togs. Don’t be tempted to pull out the razor, as the heat and sand can irritate skin with cuts or nicks. Try to plan your wax appointment at least three days before you head away, as your skin will need to calm. We stock the Pure Fiji Dilo Rescue range that can help to soothe, settle, nourish and replenish freshly waxed skin; ask us about it at your appointment.

Holiday Hands – A few days before your holiday is also a great time to give your hands a holiday makeover. A mini manicure takes just thirty-minutes so you can book one in your lunch break. Again, go for a Shellac finish to be sure your fingers stay flawlessly finished throughout your break.

Get your Glow On – Get a head start on beach duties! A Sunescape spray tan will give you a feel-good boost as you head into holiday mode. Your spray tan should always be the last box you tick on your holiday countdown beauty checklist. You might want to think about going a shade darker pre-holiday, as the darker the tan, the longer it lasts. Don’t forget to stock up on your sun creams and lotions; we have a fabulous range at Woman.

Call us today, and we’ll book your appointments for your holiday countdown beauty checklist!

Get Summer Holiday Ready in Nelson

December 12, 2017 by w b

Christmas is just around the corner, and the sun is shining, that can mean only one thing… It’s time to get summer holiday ready; and at Woman Beauty Day Spa in Nelson, we’re here to help you do exactly that!

summer holiday ready nelson

Before you head to the beach, check out our simple three-step guide to ensure that you are summer holiday ready!

As you reach for your togs, it’s also time to tame the fuzz – Check out our range of waxing treatments HERE. We recommend a full leg and bikini wax to get you started, or add an underarm too! Ditch the razor, as the heat and sand can irritate skin with cuts or nicks. Try to plan your wax appointment, so that you’re not heading to the beach straight afterward, as your skin will need to calm. We stock the Pure Fiji Dilo Rescue range that can help to soothe, settle, nourish and replenish freshly waxed skin; ask us about it at your appointment.
Get your golden glow on with fake bake – It’s common to feel a little exposed the first time you change into your togs each year, especially if your limbs haven’t seen the light of day in a while; but a spray tan can do wonders for the confidence. That’s why we’ve added Sunescape Spray Tanning to our seasonal specials this quarter. Usually, $60 each, buddy up with your bestie and you both get a tan, but you’ll only be charged for one! These Sunescape natural colours come in light, medium or dark, so choose the one that suits you best to get summer holiday ready in one appointment!
Slip into your jandals – Treat your toes to some Shellac love. Its long-lasting properties are perfect for the holidays. Shellac can be added to any pedi for just $25 extra. Or treat your fingers too, check out our summer specials for the Mini Mani/Pedi Combo with Shellac. Buy yours HERE.

However, you’re planning to spend your Nelson summer holidays we can help you prepare!

ELOS IPL certification – Nelson

October 16, 2017 by w b

ELOS IPL certification Nelson For many of us, a permanent reduction in unwanted hair growth is a dream come true, and here at Woman Beauty Day Spa in Nelson, we are proud to offer ELOS IPL (intense pulsed light) treatments to provide an effective long term alternative to waxing or shaving for men and women. We’re also proud of our ELOS IPL certification.

Safety first!

But how can you be sure that you’re in safe hands? If badly administered by untrained therapists, laser and IPL hair reduction treatments can result in blistering, redness, swelling and even scarring. Sadly, it is possible to buy IPL or laser treatment systems and operate them with minimal or no training, which puts clients at risk. So what can you do to check?

Professional training

We are proud of the fact that every therapist at Woman Beauty who offers IPL treatment for hair reduction or skin rejuvenation is fully trained and certified. We think it’s important to attend specialist training courses which cover topics such as:

Basic hair and skin anatomy
Skin type identification
How IPL works
Practical training in the safe use of the equipment
How to recognise melanoma or skin cancer
Potential hazards and how to avoid them.

Show us your credentials!

So how can you make sure that the salon you have chosen for your treatment is reputable? Ask to see evidence of training and experience (ELOS IPL certification). Here at Woman Beauty Nelson we are proud of our high standards and we would be delighted to show you our certificates!

Consultation

Why not pop in to see us for a free consultation? Let us help you to reduce unwanted hair growth as safely and effectively as possible. We are proud of our standards and we take exceptional care of our clients – come and see for yourself!

With summer just around the corner it’s time to start fighting the fuzz!
