Tips For Spa Patrons

Please arrive at least fifteen minutes early for your appointment, to give yourself time to check in and this will give your Aesthetician time to fully indulge you instead of having to rush through to be on time with the next client.

Please do turn off your cell phone out of respect for the other patrons who are trying to relax besides constantly having to pause in the middle of a treatment for you to take a call impedes us the Aesthetician from being able to provide you with the service you deserve.

Please use your indoor voice so others may be able to enjoy their services!

 Please leave your children at home if at all possible since we are Aestheticians not Daycare workers.This is also very disruptive to the other clients and unsafe for children.

Please leave us a tip if you enjoyed your service we greatly appreciate it!

Please keep in mind that when we say,"Take your time getting up." it means not to get up so fast that you get woozy. You generally have five or so minutes.We do have to have the room prepared for the next client.

Are there physical issues that may prevent you from enjoying a treatment?If you are affected by any of the conditions below you should consult your physician prior to visiting any spa, and tell the Aesthetician before your treatment begins.

Please inform the receptionist at the spa when booking an appointment.

The Right Eye Make Up Colour For You

One of the most commonly asked questions that I
receive is "What is the best shade of eye shadow for
me?".My answer is go with the opposite color from your
eye color because contrasting colors intensify and make
your eye color stand out.

Blue eyes are best intensified by copper based
shades.The orange in the copper makes the blue stand
out.

Green Eyes and green/brown are best intensified by
terracotta based shades.The red in the terracotta
makes the green stand out.

Brown eyes are best intensified be plum or violet.The
purple in plum and violet makes the sometimes existing
gold flecks in brown eyes stand out.

Green/blue eyes are fun because one day you can
intensify the blue then the next you can intensify the
green (see above).

Silvers and golds are fun but should be used in
conjunction with other colours or else the effect can
be over whelming and can draw the attention away from
your already beautiful eyes.

Neutral brown shades do not intensify any eye colour
but the are safe if you are in doubt as to which colour
to go with.

No mater what your eye color you can wear any color of
eyeliner as long as it compliments the eyeshadow you
have picked.

Hopefully these tips are of some use to you!
