Spring Beauty Maintenance Must-Haves

October 20, 2021 by w b

We’re now well into spring, and with the Nelson days getting longer and warmer, we thought it was time to take a look at your Spring Beauty Maintenance routine. Read on to discover all the treatments you need to book now!

Spring Beauty Maintenance Must-Haves:

Time to bare:

The time has come to reach to the back of your closet for skirts, shorts and crop pants. But that doesn’t mean reaching for the razor too. Sure, you’ll want to ensure your legs are fuzz-free, but there’s a better way of doing this… We know that it’s common practice to shave your legs at home, but it becomes an all too frequent event. Can you really be bothered to shave in the shower every two-three days? If you would like longer-lasting results, a leg wax is by far the best choice. A professional wax treatment at our Nelson Spa will generally mean smooth legs for two to three weeks. And if you want permanent hair removal, talk to us about IPL treatment.

Get your glow on:

So, your pins are all perfectly smooth, but you’re still not quite ready to go bare-legged. If your limbs are looking a little pale, why not treat yourself to a Sunescape spray tan? It’s guaranteed to give you a feel-good boost!

Dive into spring feet-first:

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

Don’t forget to book regular appointments to keep your toes in tip-top shape. We have a fantastic range of shellac or standard polish in lovely spring and summer hues!

To help you prepare for the new season, we’re excited to launch our seasonal giveaway competition. We’re giving away a Mini Mani/Mini Pedi Combo and a Sunescape Self-Tanning Kit to one lucky winner. It could be you… Enter HERE!

Summer Sun Ready – Your Summer Checklist

December 9, 2020 by w b

With Christmas just a couple of weeks away we’re all preparing for the holidays. This year, staycations are very much on the cards. So, you, like us, are probably looking forward to visiting Tahunanui or Kaiteriteri beach. Or maybe you’re heading over the hill to Golden Bay. Wherever you’re spending your holidays, it’s time to get summer sun ready… So, we’re sharing our Woman Beauty Summer Checklist. Read on for all the details…

Summer Sun Ready – Your Summer Checklist:

Treatments:

Time to bare:

You’ve probably started shedding layers of clothing already… But have you reached for your togs yet? If not, now is the time to prepare… Book your waxing appointment now. And if you need more information on how to prepare for your appointment, you might like to check out this article from the archives.

Subtly sun-kissed:

Thankfully, we are all a little more sun safety aware these days. That said, we also all feel a little more confident in our swimwear with bronzed limbs. Thankfully we have a sun-safe solution! A Sunescape spray tan will give you a feel-good boost and get you summer sun ready.

Treat those tootsies:

If your brand-new ‘Havaianas’ are beside your beach bag ready for their first outing, then sport them in style. We offer a range of pedicures to treat your toes. Plus, don’t forget to invest in a shellac add-on for longer-lasting polish. View ‘Nail Treatments’ HERE.

And now for some Essential Products:

Your tote needs more than a good book and water bottle to ensure you’re prepared for a day at the beach and summer sun ready. So, we thought we’d share three essential products you need on your summer checklist.

Sunscreen is an absolute beach bag essential. We recommend the Ultraceuticals SunActive SPF 50+ range. The products in this range contain a powerful antioxidant complex. They also have four hours of water resistance when used as directed.
Pure Fiji Dilo Rescue Body Spray is a fabulous all-rounder. Refresh, revive and replenish skin instantly with this soothing natural spray. Made with dilo, aloe and ngi grass extracts to soothe and hydrate skin for 24 hours. This product will soothe, moisturise and nourish irritated skin affected by sunburn, dehydration, insect bites, rashes or shaving.
Don’t forget to throw in a Jane Iredale Hydration Spray. We have several to choose from. A quick spritz will cool you down when you get hot and bothered. Perfect if you’re stopping at the top of Trafalgar for a cocktail on your way home from the beach!

There’s still time to book your appointment at Woman. Call 03 548 0030, or call in to buy your products.

Three Ways to get a Party-Ready Look!

November 10, 2020 by w b

How lovely that the days are longer and the sun is shining. December is not far away and luckily for us (unlike much of the world), we can look forward to seasonal get-togethers this year. So, it’s time to think about your party-ready look.

In this blog, we thought we’d share three ways to help you get your social glow on… Read on to discover more!

Three Ways to get a Party-Ready Look:

Give your Skin a Festive Facial:

The key to your party-ready look lies in the preparation. So, what better way to give your skin a seasonal glow than with a festive facial. Take a look at this article from the archives to discover some of our most-loved facials. Of course, it goes without saying that you shouldn’t leave your facial until the day of your party. Instead, book this relaxing treat about a week before you want to get your glam on.

Remember all our facials include a complimentary eyebrow tidy.

Handbag Essentials:

Go from daytime to party-ready look with a few handbag essentials from Jane Iredale.

Tantasia^® Self Tanner & Bronzer will give you a sun-kissed glow, without the exposure.
Be sure your makeup stays put all night with a Jane Iredale Hydration Spray. We stock a range of these refreshing spritzers, so talk to us about the best choice for you.
Get the perfect party pout with the Sugar&Butter Lip Exfoliator/Plumper.
Don’t forget your peepers… The Longest Lash Thickening and Lengthening Mascara will help you build volume for a dramatic evening look.

Prepare to Bare:

Strapless or strappy… If your party frock reveals your shoulders, back or legs then a beautiful, natural looking tan will certainly enhance your party-ready look. The Sunescape Spray Tan at Woman comes in three natural colours light, medium or dark.

Are you ready to get party-ready? Call us to book your appointment, we can’t wait to help you celebrate the season!

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!

Summer Skin Tips – It’s on the way Nelson!

November 22, 2018 by w b

Despite the recent, (shall we say changeable?), Nelson weather. Summer is on its way! So with that in mind we thought we’d share our summer skin tips to help you survive the season!

Sunscreen should never be far away

Quality sun protection is so important in our Nelson summer. Ultraceuticals UV Protective Daily Moisturiser Range are a perfect way to stay protected every day.

Choose from:

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 dry to normal skin, no chalky residue, non greasy

The Ultraceuticals Sun Active SPF50+ Range has a great range of products to slip into your beach bag.

Choose from:

130 ml Face & Body lotion Airless Pump – $59
60 ml Face Cream – $59
180 ml Clear Body Spray – $59

Get fresh with a facial

We couldn’t write an article on summer skin tips without including a facial recommendation. A facial is a great way to prepare your skin for any change of season. For a hydration boost try the Sothys Hydra 3Ha Facial. It’s The crème de la crème of facials creating a unique triple Hyaluronic acid approach to restore, reactivate and rejuvenate all the key elements of skin hydration. 71% increased skin moisture levels after just one treatment. Buy yours HERE.

Stay cool as a cucumber

Keep your shower cool in summer, especially after sun exposure, as hot showers dry out your skin further. Call in and talk to us about the Jane Iredale hydrating face sprays. They’re perfect products to throw in your handbag. A quick spritz will cool you down when you get hot and bothered. They also set your makeup for a long-lasting, smooth finish.

Don’t get in a rash

No summer skin tips post would be complete without this hero product! Pure Fiji Dilo Rescue Body Spray is a summer handbag essential. Refresh, Revive and Replenish skin instantly with this soothing natural spray. Made with dilo, aloe and ngi grass extracts to soothe and hydrate skin for 24 hours, discover a gentle yet highly effective way to soothe, moisturize and nourish irritated skin affected by sunburn, dehydration, insect bites, rashes or shaving.

Fake it don’t bake it

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. The Sunescape natural colours come in light, medium or dark, so choose the one that suits you best to get Nelson summer ready in one appointment!

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.

Beauty treatments in Nelson – Winter’s most wanted!

May 30, 2018 by w b

Winter is here and with that comes the desire to rug up and enter hibernation mode. For some, that means an excuse to ease up on essential body maintenance, although that’s not a course we’d recommend… If you let that fuzz run free as temperatures freeze, you’ll find it harder to take back control in springtime. In honour of cooler temperatures, we thought we’d share some of winter’s most wanted beauty treatments.

Let’s get warmed up – A massage is a perfect way to warm up in winter. For extra toastiness try the Aromastone Massage, this blissful head to toe spa treatment uses hot stones and essential oils. Buy yours here.
Saving face – 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. Add to this the drying effect of wind and the lack of humidity, and your skin can become dry, red, irritated, and lacklustre. Facials are popular beauty treatments all year round, but if you want to feel like you’ve managed a winter escape, try the Pure Fiji Island Facial. We’ll take you on a journey with an ancient blend of powerful plant actives and exotic drift nut oils combined with the latest in dermatological revelations, producing phenomenal targeted facial care solutions. Buy yours here.
Get your glow on – Heading to a special mid-winter event in your cocktail frock? Then make sure your skin shimmers with a Sunescape Spray Tan. This beautiful natural looking tan has no harmful chemicals and is available in light, medium and dark. Spray tans are great winter beauty treatments for a quick pick me up! Buy yours here.
Who’s looking at you baby – If you’re wrapped in merino from torso to toes… Make your peepers work for you! Our eyebrow and eyelash tinting and taming services are a great way to help frame your face. These beauty treatments are a must all year round! Buy yours here. Ask us to help you select your new Jane Iredale mineral makeup for eyes. The autumn and winter range is stunning, we can make your eyes pop with beautiful colours, or we can show you how to create sultry smoky eyes.

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!

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!
