Thursday 14th May – Our Nelson Day Spa will open!

May 12, 2020 by w b

We can’t wait to see you… When our Nelson Day Spa opens on Thursday!

A big thank you to everybody who has continued to support our business during the lockdown.

We’ve done a little happy dance every time you’ve purchased a voucher, filled out a survey form,  given us a thumbs up on Facebook or a ❤️ on Insta. Just knowing that you’ve been there for us has always made our day. And now it’s our turn to make yours…

It is with much excitement that we announce that we are re-opening the doors to Woman Beauty Day Spa this Thursday 14th May. Access will be strictly limited to those of you who have appointments. We regret that we are unable to accept walk-ins at this time.

Nelson Day Spa Open

A few changes to be aware of when our Nelson Day Spa opens on Thursday:

Things may be a little different for a while. We need to introduce a few new practices to keep you and our team safe. Read on to find out everything you need to know.

Arriving for your appointment:

  1. Please don’t arrive early for your appointment. Arrive at your scheduled appointment time and phone (03 548 0030) or text (using the mobile number in your appointment reminder) to let us know you have arrived. Your therapist will come outside to meet you.
  2. We will ask you to sanitise your hands before you enter the Spa. It is always normal procedure for our staff to wash or sanitise their hands before and after every appointment.
  3. Your name will be added to our ‘Contact Register’ upon arrival. It’s important that you come alone, please don’t bring children with you. We will be adopting a ‘no children’ policy as a long-term measure at Woman.

During your appointment:

  1. Both our Relax Lounge and Changing Area will remain closed for the time being. We will offer you the privacy you need to change for your appointment in your treatment room, and we’ll provide you with a safe and hygienic way to store your clothing and belongings while you have your treatment.
  2. Your therapist will wear a face-mask and gloves during your treatment. We have no plans to supply face-masks for our clients, but if you would feel more comfortable wearing a mask, we are happy for you to bring and wear your own.
  3. We are unable to serve water or beverages in the Spa, so please bring your own water, especially if you are having a massage.
  4. Testing products will only be handled by our team, please ask if you’d like to try anything.
  5. We offer contactless payment using ‘payWave’. But, if you would prefer to pre-pay for your treatment we can take payment over the phone or send you our bank details to pay by bank transfer (payment must be received at least 24 hours ahead of your treatment, should you wish to pay by bank transfer).
  6. Our building, including the bathroom, waiting area and working spaces, is always cleaned to the highest of standards. But we will continue to implement additional rotas for the cleaning of door handles and surfaces as an extra precaution.
  7. As usual, all of our equipment and tools are sanitised and cleaned after every use to maintain the highest levels of hygiene.

And Finally:

Finally, and most importantly, if you are feeling unwell, please do not visit us. Do call at your earliest convenience and we will be happy to reschedule your appointment, in line with our cancellation policy.


Delene & Bridgette will be in the Day Spa on Tuesday and Wednesday this week to ensure everything is ready for your appointments from Thursday 14th May.

The phone lines will be manned on both Tuesday (12th) and Wednesday (13th) between 11:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. Call 03 548 0030 to make your appointment, or contact us HERE.

Teenage Skin and How We Help

February 27, 2020 by w b

At Woman Beauty in Nelson, our experienced therapists can help your skin look its best, no matter what your age. In this week’s article we thought we’d focus on teenage skin and how we help.

teenage skin

Teenage Skin & How We Help:

The teenage years are full of hormonal changes, and these can have an adverse effect on teenage skin. Characteristically, teenage skin sees an increase in sebum production, resulting in oily skin and sometimes, acne.

Skincare for teenage skin:

Firstly, when it comes to teenage skin issues, prevention is always better than cure. 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, including acne. So, the result is your best-ever skin, no matter what your age!

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.

It’s never too soon to encourage your teenager to adopt a healthy skincare regime. Do call into the spa, we are always happy to discuss any teenage skin concerns and recommend suitable products.

First Facial:

Here at Woman we specialise and are trained in advanced skincare facials. We will give you honest advice and outstanding service with successful results. A facial isn’t just an anti-ageing treatment, the right facial can also be beneficial for teenagers.

If you know a teenager who suffers from red or sensitive teenage skin the Sothys Soothing Facial could be just the ticket.

Additionally, if you are in your latter teenage years and would like to address acne scarring, talk to us about Dermapen 4 treatment.

Once again, we are happy to offer advice on the right facial for your skin concerns, just call into the spa for advice or contact us HERE.

A vegan diet and glowing skin

February 6, 2020 by w b

February is vegan cuisine month. It’s no secret that you are what you eat… And some claim a vegan diet is the secret to glowing skin. At Woman Beauty we believe that you should enjoy life, including the food and drinks you love. Just remember everything in moderation!

Nevertheless, because there is a school of thought that plant-based eating is good for your skin… In this article, we thought we’d share three reasons why going vegan could have a positive effect on your complexion.

vegan diet glowing skin

A vegan diet and glowing skin:

Dairy… Not always a delight:

For anybody that suffers from acne, it may come as no surprise that serious breakouts come after an overload of ice cream! Dairy can be a major culprit when it comes to skin congestion. As dairy is eliminated in a vegan diet it can improve the complexion of those prone to acne.

If you have suffered from acne historically and need to address any associated scarring, talk to us about Dermapen 4.

Root vegetables and radiant skin:

Carrots and beetroot are rich in beta-carotene. But this red-orange pigment is not exclusive to root vegetables. You’ll also find it in pumpkin, squash, citrus and even greens like kale and spinach. Beta-carotene’s antioxidant properties can give you a healthy glow. But before you start munching on raw carrots with gay abandon, remember that too much beta-carotene can have adverse effects, giving your skin a yellowish tinge.

Banish fine lines with fruit and vegetables:

A plant-based diet is chock full of antioxidants. These are the critters that chase away the free radicals that can cause premature ageing.

Additionally, soy foods (a staple part of vegan diets) including tofu, edamame, and tempeh increase levels of hyaluronic acid. It’s hyaluronic acid that helps your skin retain water and stay plump and youthful!


Whether you’ve decided to eat a vegan diet or not, we can still help you achieve glowing skin. Check out our range of facials, or call in to talk to us about the best product for your skin types.

Develop a coconut crush this Valentine’s Day!

January 30, 2020 by w b

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. We believe that you can celebrate this romantic day whether you’re part of a contented couple or satisfyingly single! If you’re looking for romance we know where you should be focusing your attentions… It’s time to develop a coconut crush!

Coconut crush

In this week’s blog we thought we’d share three reasons to fall head over heels in ❤️ with coconuts!

Develop a coconut crush this Valentine’s Day:

Amorous Antioxidants:

Coconuts are chock full of powerful antioxidants. They contain phenolic compounds, which are antioxidants that may help protect cells from oxidative damage. These same phenolic compounds also have anti-ageing properties!

Healthy fats to light your fire:

No, we’re not talking cooking fats… We’re talking fats that make your skin glow! Healthy fats are an essential part of any diet. They reduce inflammation and help to keep your joints, hair, skin and nails in tip-top condition.

Romantic rehydration:

Dehydrated skin is sad skin… While a good skincare regime is essential for healthy skin, it’s also important to rehydrate from the inside out. So, be sure to drink your coconut water for an extra hit of hydration.


To help you develop your coconut crush we’re giving away a Pure Fiji Coconut Crush Body Scrub ritual, and all you have to do to enter is fill out a form. Enter HERE.

Additionally, stay tuned for details of our Valentine’s Day Grab-A-Treat. The very same Coconut Crush Body Scrub Ritual will be available for sale at a swooningly special price from 10th February for a limited period. A perfect treat for your loved one or yourself. PLUS buy two for extra special pricing! But this deal isn’t just for couples, bring your friend, daughter, sister or whomever you think needs to take time out for themselves and escape from the every day.

You can view more details here, but this treat won’t go on sale until 10th February.

Why you need a summer facial

January 22, 2020 by w b

In the middle of summer, we understand that it’s tempting to let your regular facials slip. Your skin feels like it has a radiant summer glow. It doesn’t necessarily feel tight and dry like it does over the winter months. Plus, you enjoy the warming relaxation of facials in winter, but don’t feel you need that rejuvenating comfort as much in the summertime. But you do! In this week’s blog article, we thought we’d share three reasons why you need a summer facial!

Why you need a summer facial:

Repair your skin:

A weekend spent at the beach, camping or hiking can take its toll on your skin. Gritty dust and sand, combined with layers of sunscreen can clog your pores and leave you glowing for all the wrong reasons. But that doesn’t mean you should stop enjoying fun summer weekends! Just be sure to book in a facial to repair any skin damage.

Our popular 02 Facial rejuvenates your skin with hyperbaric oxygen technology. A beautiful calming treatment incorporating anti-oxidants and vitamins; it provides instant results you can see and feel.

Protect your skin:

Even with sunscreen, sun exposure will lead to dehydrated skin. While dryness might not seem as obvious in the summertime your skin will still be parched. When your skin is dehydrated, it creates oil to make up for the missing water. This, in turn, can lead to breakouts and pimples. So, the best way to avoid this is to ensure your skin is suitably hydrated.

The Sothys Hydra 3Ha Facial is the perfect solution. As the crème de la crème of facials, it creates a unique triple Hyaluronic acid approach to restore, reactivate and rejuvenate all the key elements of skin hydration. It offers 70% increased skin moisture levels after just one treatment.

It’s always time to relax:

At Woman Beauty Day Spa every facial comes with a healthy dose of relaxation, and that includes our summer facials. We keep our rooms at the perfect temperature for you to be able to lie back and drift off.

IPL – IPL Hair Removal & Skin Rejuvenation

December 4, 2019 by w b

At Woman Beauty in Nelson, we have been offering IPL hair removal and skin rejuvenation with our ELOS IPL machine for many years. We have achieved excellent results for many of our clients. However, we found we could no longer get replacement parts for our old machine. So, we recently upgraded and in this article, we’d like to introduce you to Sirius, our brand new IPL machine by Candela. Just landed to help you with your hair removal and skin rejuvenation goals!

IPL Hair-Removal and Skin Rejuvenation Nelson

IPL for Hair Removal & Skin Rejuvenation:

We use Sirius, our new IPL machine for permanent hair reduction and skin rejuvenation.

In Nelson, we’re lucky that we have such high sunshine hours. The downside is that many people end up with unwanted sun damage. Delene and Bridgette have been helping many of our clients with their skin rejuvenation goals over the winter months.

Sirius the Best in the Business:

Our new machine has extremely intelligent technology. This includes patented narrow band Ellipse IPL technology with dual filters. These state of the art systems allow us to safely and successfully treat a huge range of concerns. We use the machine’s customisable pulse duration to determine each client’s safest treatment parameters based on their Fitzpatrick skin type.

Sirius & Specific Skin Concerns:

With our smart new IPL machine, we can safely and successfully treat a huge range of concerns. These concerns include Rosacea, sun damage, broken capillaries and diffused redness.

Why Certified Training is Important:

Although IPL is a widely used modality and growing in popularity, not all machines are created equal. Some machines are not self-calibrating. This means that their energy output can vary hugely between each shot, which in turn, can lead to burns.

If a practitioner has not undergone the necessary training to help them understand the treatment they are performing or the machine they are using, then they do not have the knowledge to correctly select a client’s treatment parameters for a successful treatment plan. Additionally, they are unlikely to be fully informed to guarantee client safety, or how to troubleshoot if things did go wrong.

Badly administered IPL can lead to burns, permanent pigmentation and scarring.

If you are considering IPL, it’s important to do your homework on your practitioner as the industry is unfortunately unregulated. This means that anybody can purchase a machine and begin offering IPL or laser services.

You can rest assured that you are safe with Woman Beauty in Nelson. Delene and Bridgette are both certified by NZ Laser Training, and Hayley will join them in early December.

This training means firstly that your safety is paramount. Additionally, it arms us with in-depth knowledge of how to tailor treatment plans to give you optimal results. When you undertake a treatment plan we use everything we learned in training to keep assessing your progress. We can also judge when it is appropriate to make changes to your treatment plan.

Ready to get started with hair removal or skin rejuvenation?

Initial consultations for IPL hair removal and skin rejuvenation are free. We recommend a test patch at least 24 to 48 hours before your first treatment. The number of treatments can differ and we determine this on a case by case basis. We recommend making an initial appointment to fill out the consultation form and perform a test patch.

We have a special running on IPL hair removal. Buy five treatments on one area and receive your sixth free. Please contact us to book your consultation time.
