Nelson Winter Skincare Opportunties

by

So, the colder months have finally arrived. But, that doesn’t mean it’s all doom and gloom. In fact, we think the cooler temperatures and nights at home present the perfect opportunity to start ramping up your Nelson winter skincare. Don’t hide under your beanie! It’s the season to show your skin some T,L,C!

Nelson winter skincare

Three ways to amp up your Nelson winter skincare.

Firstly, winter is the perfect time to try non-invasive skin treatments. This is because of the reduced sun exposure, which can be beneficial to your healing after any treatment.

At Woman, we have two specific skincare treatments that fall into the non-invasive skin treatments category.

ELOS Skin Rejuvenation:

This is a highly effective IPL intense pulse light treatment which restores the appearance of unwanted pigmentation, redness and uneven skin tone. We can treat your face, neck, décolletage and hands, restoring your skin to its former glory.

Combined bi-polar radio frequency and light energies of ELOS technology target skin pigmentation such as freckles, sunspots and age spots. Spider vessels (or thread veins) and redness from rosacea are also lightened. The bi-polar heat also stimulates collagen production.

Prices usually start at $350 for your face, BUT we are offering a special price of $200 for full face, with pricing for other areas by consultation with one of our certified therapists.

Contact us to book your appointment.

Dermapen 4:

Dermapen Microneedling treatments promote natural collagen and elastin production from within the skin. After treatment, you’ll notice healthier, brighter, tighter skin. It will feel more even toned, with refined pores and reduced wrinkles.

We can achieve fabulous skin rejuvenation with Dermapen 4, and our launch promotion is ongoing. Buy three treatments get one free!

To treat your face and neck is typically $299 for an individual treatment. But, if you book and pay for four, the total charged will be $897 (that works out at $224.25 per treatment). If you’d like to include your décolletage with your face and neck treatment it would normally be $350 for an individual treatment. But, similarly, if you book and pay for four, it’s $1050 (which works out at $262.50 per treatment).

Contact us to book your appointment.

Omnilux LED Revive Me:

Finally, your Nelson winter skincare should include a fabulous facial. That’s why we’ve included our; always popular Omnilux LED Revive Me Facial in our seasonal specials, reduced by $50 for three months only.

Enjoy our luxury facial combined with the medical grade Omnilux to plump, brighten and tighten the skin and minimise fine lines. This will improve the look and feel of your skin.

Autumn and Winter Skincare – Your ‘To Do’ List

by

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 winter skincare nelson

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.

Gifts for Mum – 5 Ways to spoil her on Mother’s Day

by

It’s that time of year again! Sunday 12th May, Mother’s Day, is just around the corner. Which means it’s time to think about gifts for Mum. Thankfully Woman Beauty Nelson has some ‘inspo’ for you!

We thought we’d share five ways to spoil the person you think is the best Mum in the world on Mother’s Day!

gifts mum nelson

Breakfast in Bed

Start the day off right with a morning treat. But why not make it a breakfast to get Mum ‘glowing’? Check out this article from the archives on foods that nourish your skin. Avocado, blueberries and nuts are all good foods for fabulous skin. So mix up this breakfast bowl for Mum.

  • 1/2 avocado
  • One banana
  • Two good dollops of natural yoghurt
  • A handful of blueberries (frozen or fresh)

Whizz these ingredients together with a dash of water in your Nutri bullet or blender. Meanwhile, toast a handful of mixed nuts and seeds in a dry non-stick pan. Pour and scoop the blended mixture into a bowl, top with the toasted nuts and seeds, add extra chopped fruit or coconut flakes, then drizzle with a little honey!

Edible gifts for Mum, lovingly prepared, are a perfect way to show how much you care.

Happiness is Hydration

How about a Mother’s Day gift bag from Pure Fiji?

24 Hours of Hydration Bag – RRP $50 (Value $70). Each bag contains:

  • 120ml Nourishing Hand Creme
  • 90ml Coconut Hydrating Body Mist
  • 10ml Pina Colada Lip Balm
  • Palm Tree Pouch

Make your gifts for Mum extra special by adding a Woman Gift Voucher! These bags are limited, but we have lots more Pure Fiji gift ideas in the spa. Pop in to see us!

Mums deserve Massage

You might be buying for a working Mum always on the run, a Mum in waiting, or a Dad that does the job of a Mum. Whoever you need a gift for we have the perfect massage match! Check out the massage treatment list here. Gifts for Mum that involve relaxation are always appreciated!

Time Together

Sometimes the thing your Mum really wants is to spend time with you! Why not take some well-earned mother and daughter time at our brand new premises in New Street (central Nelson). We have four, beautifully decorated, treatment rooms, including a doubles room, where you could enjoy an “Ultimate Indulgence” treatment with Mum. (Many more of our spa and Pure Fiji treatments are available for two!)

Mother’s Day Grab-A-Treat

Our special Mother’s Day Grab-A-Treat goes on sale Monday 6th May (available for purchase for one week only). Find out all the details HERE, and bookmark the page to buy from 8:00 a.m. on Monday 6th May!

Woman: New Nelson Spa: Same Fab Team!

by

We can hardly believe that Woman has been at our fabulous new Nelson spa premises for over a month! Our surroundings may have changed, but our wonderfully relaxing treatments and fabulous team remain the same!

All that said, we thought it was time to reacquaint you with our crew. We think it’s important that you get to know us all, that way you can feel comfortable that you’re selecting the right Woman Beauty Nelson spa therapist when you book your next treatment.

Delene:

You all know Delene, right? She’s the boss! And while she’s in charge of the overall business, she’s still very much a ‘hands-on’ therapist. Delene practices pretty much all of the advanced treatments we offer at our Nelson spa, but especially enjoys nail treatments and waxing. When she’s not here, you’ll find her out walking with her spoodle, Roxy, or with her nose in a good book.

Bridgette:

We call Bridgette, back up Bridgette, because she’s Delene’s second in charge. Bridgette has been part of the team for a while, so she too offers all of the treatments we carry out at Woman. But, she specialises in facials and skincare prescriptions. Our Bridgette is an active gal, so when she’s not working you might find her in the gym or enjoying the great outdoors!

Holly:

If you need to take the weight off your feet, then Holly is the woman for you! She specialises in foot reflexology. But she too carries out all of our fabulous treatments, from waxing and facials to spa treatments. Holly is all about whanau, so when she’s not looking after her family of Woman clients or crew, she’s spending time with her actual family!

Hayley:

Hayley believes in a holistic approach to beauty therapy, incorporating the mind, body and soul. She’ll make sure you leave our new Nelson Spa feeling rested, relaxed and stress-free. She loves spending time among nature, so when she’s not here you’ll find her biking, tramping, kayaking or enjoying time in the Marlborough Sounds with her friends, family and dog!

Pip:

Pip is one of our receptionists, and also one of the first people that you’ll meet when you walk through the door or call us on the phone. She’s super organised! And will always do her best to fit you in when you need a little escape! We like to call her ‘chief of happiness’, and she lives up to the name! Out of work you’ll find her keeping fit, through walking, biking or pole fitness.

Stacey:

Stacey is also a receptionist, but don’t be surprised if she greets you in a treatment room, because she’s also a spa therapist. She loves helping you feel pampered and relaxed. If she’s not working, you’ll find Stacey exploring and enjoying everything our beautiful Nelson region has to offer. Golden Bay is a favourite with her and her children!

Lauren:

If you need to put your best face forward, then speak to Lauren. She loves working with makeup and knows our Jane Iredale range inside out. She can also make sure you’re super relaxed, specialising in massage, manicure, pedicures and spa facials. Our Lauren is another family girl, and when she’s not looking after you, she’ll be spending time with those close to her.

Anja:

Anja is one of our newest team members, but if you’ve been lucky enough to book an appointment with her, you’ll know that she’s fab at helping you achieve your skin goals. That said, she’s not a one trick pony, she can also help you with waxing and electrolysis, massage and nail treatments. We can thoroughly recommend having her on your team!

If you haven’t yet visited the Woman new Nelson spa premises, be sure to book your appointment. Give us a call, and we can help you find the right therapist if you don’t already know who you’d like!

Pedicures – 3 reasons to treat your feet in Autumn

by

As we head into Autumn it’s tempting to tuck your toes away for the cooler months without giving them another thought. But before you tuck your open toed sandals at the back of the wardrobe and reach for merino socks and opaque tights stop and reconsider. At Woman Beauty in Nelson we think every season is the right time of year to embrace pedicures.

Pedicures – 3 reasons to treat your feet in Autumn

You’re suffering from jandalitis

Okay, you’ve rumbled us… We just made that word up! The problem, however, is very real. You’ve sent the summer scuffing around in jandals or even worse bare feet and now you’re paying the price. Cracked heels and hard rough skin are often the result of summer footwear, (or lack of). It just doesn’t seem fair to cram your summer weary feet into closed toes until you’ve given them a little TLC. Why not show them some love with a Spa Pedicure. You’ll get a foot soak and sugar scrub, heel and foot buff with the added indulgence of a luxury massage of lower leg and foot, nail tidy and cuticle work finishing with a polish of your choice.

Beach days might come back

What a summer we’ve had! And who says it’s over? There’s always a chance you could be reaching for your beach bag at Easter time, so don’t say goodbye to pedicures just yet. If you get caught on the hop, our Mini Pedicures take just thirty minutes so you can fit one in over your lunch break.

You haven’t visited our new central city spa just yet!

If you haven’t seen our new home then make a date with a girlfriend and come and see us! Or just pop in by yourself treat your feet, they’ve taken between 8,000 and 10,000 steps every day this summer. And very soon you’ll be keeping them cooped up in tights and shoes. Let them run free once more at Woman Beauty in central Nelson.

Nutrition Month – Feed Your Face!

by

Did you know that March is Nutrition Month?

Nutrition Month aims to help people to make better food choices. The celebratory month began in the seventies, and over the years different themes have been used to highlight the importance of eating well. This year, we thought we’d celebrate nutrition month with our very own blog… Feed your face! No, we’re not talking about visiting all the wonderful restaurants near our new central city home in New Street, (although we’re parking that one for later)! Instead, we’re going to share five foods that are good for your skin, so you can quite literally feed your face!

Nutrition Month. Eat avocado for great skin

Five foods to help feed your face this nutrition month:

Start at the beginning… A is for Avocado

  • Avocados provide essential fatty acids which can act as a natural moisturiser for your skin. They’re also chock full of vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant.

A great start to the day

  • You know your Mum was right when she said breakfast was the most important meal of the day. It kick-starts your metabolism and gives you the energy you need for work or play! But you can make that breakfast count more if you get your Goldilocks on! Oatmeal is a nutritious whole grain and excellent skin food. It’s also a low GI food; in other words, it releases sugar into the bloodstream gradually. This means you’re less likely to reach for quick sugar fix snacks that certainly won’t be good for your skin!

Eat a rainbow

  • By eating a diet full of colourful, fresh fruits, berries and veggies you’ll get enough minerals, phytonutrients, and antioxidants to prevent damage from free radicals. As we head into autumn, there’s no need to lament the end of the berry season. Frozen berries will still help feed your face, and are easy to throw in your morning smoothie.

Let’s go nuts!

  • Nuts are fabulous foods for feeding your face with this nutrition month. Eat them raw and unsalted for a powerful protein-packed snack. They contain essential minerals and vitamins to keep your skin clear, smooth, and youthful. Choose walnuts to amp up collagen production because they are also high in omega-3 fatty acids. Select almonds and pecans for their high fibre content, as they’ll help to eliminate toxins and get you glowing in no time!

Don’t give up your chocolate

  • Just make it dark chocolate with at least 70% cocoa. Cacao beans are rich in antioxidants called flavonoids. These can help protect your skin from UV damage, but don’t ditch the sunscreen all together!

Once you start to feed your face this nutrition month, don’t forget to pop into our new premises at 26 New Street to find out how we can help amp up your skincare. We can’t wait to see you!

 

 

A new Nelson home for Woman!

by

We are officially on the countdown… From next Wednesday 6th March, we will be in our new central city home at 26 New Street, Nelson.

Woman Beauty Nelson

You can expect the same fabulous service, beautiful treatments and relaxing atmosphere, that you’ve come to know and love from Woman, but with a delightful new backdrop. Our new premises will have four, newly decorated, treatment rooms, including a doubles room for couples. We’ll still have our much-loved relax lounge so that you can escape your everyday stresses. We are even taking the tropical fish tank with us!

This move is exciting for us, but more importantly, it’s terrific news for you too!

  • We are going to be walking distance for most of you who come straight to us from your Nelson city workplace. So whether your appointment is at the end of your working day or during your busy lunchtime, we just saved you a few extra minutes! If you are driving to us from further afield, we have three dedicated client car parking spaces, and there’s plenty of on-street parking too.
  • Our new home is perfect for you to experience a little more of what Nelson has to offer. New Street is growing into a busy hub full of great businesses that will now be right on our doorstep. The Workshop, The New Street Steakhouse, DeVille and Rhythm and Brown are all perfect places to catch up with your friends and loved ones after you’ve had a relaxing treat at Woman. Plus with the Farmer’s Market soon to be moving into New Street as well, we think you will love our new home just as much as we will!
  • We have been working very hard to create a brand new space that is even more relaxing than the last! And we are confident we can continue to provide a wonderful escape from the every day for you in beautifully decorated surroundings.

If you want to be the first to visit us, please come along to our Woman Beauty Nelson Opening Party. Find all the details here. We can’t wait to share our new space with you and build new memories just down the road!

5 high summer beauty treatment essentials

by

Who can believe that we are almost half way through February? With summer sun and warm temperatures still here we thought we’d share five high summer beauty treatment essentials.

high summer beauty treatment

High Summer Beauty Treatment #1 – Put your fresh face forward

Has the summer taken its toll on your skin? Dehydration, air conditioning, summer sun and swimming in a chlorinated pool can all lead to dryer skin over the warmer months. One of the best ways to give your skin a much needed hydration boost is with our much-loved 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.

High Summer Beauty Treatment #2 – Move more after massage

Has the heat and humidity made your limbs feel heavy and swollen over the warmer months? A massage could be just the thing to encourage blood flow and reduce that swelling. A full body Island Massage is a perfect way to relax and drift away with the special blends of the Pacific. It can also help ease summer sluggishness. Buy yours HERE.

High Summer Beauty Treatment #3 – A summer treat for summer feet

If you’ve been living in your jandals this summer, or going bare foot in the back yard, there’s a chance that you’ve developed dry skin or rough cracked heels. The ultimate treat for feet, Soul to Sole is currently on special for summer. Buy yours HERE.

High Summer Beauty Treatment #4 – Top up your tan

So, you’re back at work, which means fewer beach days. If you want to extend your golden glow do it with a beautiful, natural looking Sunescape Spray Tan. Buy yours HERE.

High Summer Beauty Treatment #5 – Scents of a tropical island

The Pure Fiji Honey Melt is a delight for the summer senses. Enjoy a coconut and honey body treatment, this incudes a full body exfoliation and application of coconut milk and honey masque, then a neck back and shoulder massage and a heavenly head massage.
