Best Beauty Products for Summer – Staff Picks!

November 11, 2021 by w b

Things are heating up in Nelson, so we thought it was time to share our summer must-haves! Read on for the best beauty products for summer as recommended by the Woman Beauty team! You’re going to want to fill your beach bag with some of these!

Best Beauty Products for Summer – Staff Picks!

Delene’s Choice

best beauty product for nelson summer as recommebded by Delene

Exfoliation products are my year-round must-haves, but are particularly important in summer after a dry winter. Use either a manual sugar scrub which also helps with hydration due to the oil content or Pure Fiji’s newer coconut scrub (great for tanners as it has no oil). Using a handheld Riffi Mit (machine washable) for those extra dry days or Ultra’s brand new retexturising lotion for easy chemical exfoliation. Apply this like a lotion and it is all you’ll need for flawlessly hydrated skin. Be sure to use an SPF afterwards. Finally, finish with a hydrating moisturiser for summer-ready legs.

Bridgette’s Choice

Without a doubt my summer must-have is hands down SPF! If you aren’t protecting your skin with an SPF every day you may as well throw your serums in the bin because sun damage will undo all their hard work! We have a fantastic range of lightweight daily moisturisers with complete spectrum sun protection. As well as mineral sun and body protect available. For those of you constantly on the go, we recommend over makeup SPF touch-ups. Jane Iredale has an amazing mineral powder sunscreen too, a must for the beach bag as it can be applied over makeup and on the scalp for protection!

Lauren’s Choice

My favourite summer must-have product is the Pure Fiji Body Lotion and butter. Great as an all-over body lotion and the butter helps keep your feet hydrated especially in summer when we are wearing open shoes all day, every day. All of the infusions smell amazing too which makes it hard to pick a favourite! Because of this, I have three of the lotions at home (Oops).

Aimiee’s Choice

As quick as the water warms up in Nelson, my family and I are out in and on it. With that comes a lot of environmental changes to our skin and the Pure Fiji Dilo Rescue Gel, straight out of the fridge, becomes our best friend and must-have for the summer. It soothes, nourishes and repairs the damaged skin. It’s the perfect all-rounder for sunburn, windburn, insect bites, dermatitis and all things summer!

Micki’s Choice

With summer coming up it’s very easy to get a little too much sun especially our face, Juvenate’s phyto renew mask is very cooling and rehydrating perfect after getting burnt or kissed by the sun! It has Aloe Vera which reduces the pain of sunburn and helps to reduce the redness as well. It also has hyaluronic acid which rehydrates the skin and plumps fine lines and wrinkles. Personally, I put mine in the fridge for a while before using it, it feels so refreshing perfect after a bit much sun.

Payton’s Choice

With summer right around the corner, I always make sure I stock up on some Sunescape’s tanning range to get that gorgeous glow without the damage of the sun, and always using sunscreen of course! For glowing skin, it’s important to hydrate from the inside out. 😊 I am a fruit lover so I love the summer for the variety of fresh fruit available in this region, especially watermelon, strawberries, or cherries!

Observ Skin Diagnostics Event

February 25, 2021 by w b

On 16th March we’ll be holding another Observ Skin Diagnostics event at Woman Beauty, Nelson, in conjunction with our visiting Ultraceuticals expert, Tracy Benporth. If you haven’t attended before we thought we’d use this post to explain how it works and the benefits you’ll see from booking an appointment.

Observ Skin Diagnostics Event with Ultraceuticals:

How the Observ machine works:

Some skin concerns begin in the deep layers of your skin and are difficult to see with the human eye. These issues are often related to sun damage, and they eventually begin to show themselves as you age. The Observ Skin Diagnostics machine can expose these conditions earlier. Meaning you get a head start on resolving any issues. The machine uses a patented skin fluorescence and polarized light illumination technology.

The machine takes images of your skin using different lighting levels, revealing blemishes or underlying skin issues in incredible detail. The whole process is fast, non-invasive and pain-free.

The images reveal a detailed analysis for each different light filter and our visiting Ultraceuticals expert, Tracy Benporth, goes through these with you.

What happens next?

This diagnostic consult allows our Tracy to prescribe the correct products for your skin. We include the cost of a prescribed peel in the price of your appointment. And one of our expert therapists carries out this relaxing treatment resulting in a significant improvement of skin texture, colour and consistency.

Your total appointment time for both diagnosis and treatment is sixty minutes. This consultation costs $95 (saving $150 on the regular price).

Finally, you’ll be able to book a follow-up appointment when our visiting expert returns, to see the improvements to your skin and make any adjustments to your future treatments and skincare.

But there’s more!

At this special Observ Skin Diagnostics event we offer a couple of bonuses with your booking.

You receive a complimentary entry into our prize draw for an Ultraceuticals package worth $250.
PLUS you can also take advantage of a 15% ‘on the day’ discount on all Ultraceuticals full-sized products.

If you’re ready to book your sixty-minute appointment on 16th March at our Nelson Day Spa, please do get in touch HERE. We do request payment at time of booking to reserve your space.

Autumn and Winter Skincare – Your ‘To Do’ List

May 22, 2019 by w b

As the seasons roll around once again, it’s time to start thinking about the changes you might need to make to your autumn and winter skincare. To help you prepare for the colder months, we decided to publish a handy ‘to do’ list. Read on to discover how you can save your skin during the Nelson winter season!

Autumn and Winter Skincare – The Woman Beauty Nelson ‘To Do’ List:

Start the new season with a facial

If you only manage to fit in a facial a few times a year, then the change of season is the perfect time to squeeze one in. Firstly, it will help prepare your skin for the harsh environmental factors it’s sure to encounter as the temperature changes. Secondly, it’s an excellent opportunity for one of our therapists to review your skin. We can advise you on any products we think will benefit your autumn and winter skincare routine. View our list of facials HERE.

Clear out the cupboard

Your skin will start to dry out in the colder months so you’ll rightly be tempted to slip some extra serums into your routine. But if you’re reaching to the back of the bathroom cupboard for products you’ve only used seasonally, do be sure to check when you initially opened them. Remember, all skincare products have a shelf life. They will lose their effectiveness beyond this point. So, the start of the new season is a good time to have a clear out. We know skincare products can be expensive, so do talk to us about getting the best bang for your buck during your seasonal switchover.

Get beautiful skin from within

Hydration is vital through the cooler months, but we know how tricky it is to keep up your water intake when it’s freezing outside, and you just want to wrap your hands around a warm coffee cup! Choose herbal teas for warming goodness. Or make a broth-based soup with delicious winter veggies.

Don’t ditch the SPF

Your skin receives no let-up from the harsh UV rays over winter, especially in beautiful Nelson, where we still have bright sunny days during the cooler months. So don’t ditch the sunscreen!

Mix up your makeup

Just as you update your wardrobe in summer, you might want to review your makeup bag. Swap your summer nudes for deeper, warmer lip and cheek colours over the autumn and winter seasons. Talk to us about the beautiful range of Jane Iredale mineral makeup. We can help you select the perfect shades for your new season look.

Need more autumn or winter skin care advice? Call in and see us. Our professional team of therapists are trained to meet exacting international standards. Their continual development and training mean that we can be sure they will always offer you the best service and advice.

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.

Happy holidays from the whole team at Woman Beauty!

Ultraceuticals at Woman Beauty Nelson

September 14, 2018 by w b

At Woman, we’re proud to be exclusive Nelson stockists of the premier range of facial cosmeceuticals, Ultraceuticals.

Ultraceuticals is one of Australia’s pre-eminent cosmeceutical brands. The range offers professional grade products formulated to address major skin concerns such as ageing, pigmentation and acne. The result is your best-ever skin!

But what are cosmeceuticals?

Cosmeceuticals contain active ingredients (10%- 25%). These ingredients make actual changes in the second layer of the skin and work by getting the skin to function and perform as it should. The ingredients in cosmeceuticals also help to look after and protect the important lipid barrier of the skin, allowing for better penetration of the active ingredients. These products need to come via the recommendation of a qualified skin therapist, after a thorough consultation and assessment of your skin.

As we head into spring and summer it’s time to give your cosmetic bag and bathroom cabinet an overhaul, and add some extra protection! As well as the fabulous range of cleansers, serums and moisturisers on offer, Ultraceuticals can also help protect you from the sun’s harmful UV rays.

Designed to protect against both UVA (antiaging) and UVB (burn) rays. A conventional sunscreen that has a ‘SPF’ rating only and does not mention the term ‘Broad Spectrum’ may block very little UVA radiation to the nominal SPF. These cost $89, and come in four different varieties.

SPF 50+ For all skin types – Non greasy
SPF 30+ Sheer tint – For all skin types
SPF 30+ Hydrating – For dry to normal skin
SPF 30+ Mattifying – For oily to normal skin, no chalky residue, non greasy

Advanced protection from Ultraceuticals

Ultraceuticals Sun Active SPF50+ Range has a Complete Spectrum, which means that the ingredients included protect to a deeper level of nanometers. (The wavelength UV is measured in nanometers (or billionths of a meter). The benefits of this

range include:

Highest UV protection containing complete spectrum UVA & UVB sunscreens
Antioxidant protection (ghts DNA damage)
4 hour water resistance
Touch dry technology
Low chemical load
Skin barrier support
Designed for active lifestyle
No benzophenone, parabens, propylene, synthetic dyes or fragrance
