Shona's Beauty is a wee Scottish treat

In my Blogs i recommend a lot of salons and spas in London as this is where i am based but while on holiday i had a chance to visit Shona's Beauty and it did not disappoint set in great location in the Heart of Glasgow. Hillside is a trendy area with bohemian feel easy to get to just hop on the subway and it is a short walk from the Glasgow Hilton see the link below.

What made it special was the fabulous Shona who gave me one to none attention as she is based from her home in a beautiful tenement block, they don't make buildings like this anymore but it was more the fact it was private your not rushed in like cattle and your not sitting with other clients so you feel like you have your very own Beauty therapist.

So if your planning a trip to Glasgow and need maybe a quick wax or relaxing facial and don't know where to go this is a handy contact for your check list

Dry Scalp

I live in London and water plays havoc with my scalp i have had extremely dry scalp lately and Eczema on the nape of my neck.

I was at work and was talking to my friend who suggested Neem oil, money is tight at the moment so she gave me her Beauty tip pour some olive oil into a small bowl doesn't matter that it is cooking olive oil then place the small bowl with the olive oil into a bigger bowl with warm water underneath so the olive oil is warmed up then add a few drops of lavender oil.

I massaged it into my scalp really working it in from roots to the end of my hair then tied my hair up in a top knot and left for 20 minutes could have been be longer but i am impatient i then washed my hair as normal and my hair felt amazing the Eczema went and i really felt my scalp could breath.

This simple cheap scalp treatment really worked for me so thank you Nectra.

Health and Beauty

It is so important to look after your feet not only to look nice but for health reasons. Every year i give my feet a M.O.T as i am on my feet a lot walking and standing in my line of work as a Beauty Therapist i do have pedicures but i must admit i do it myself even though you can't beat someone else doing them but what i want is hard skin removal not just filed and sanded, if your feet are ok this is fine and your benefit more from the relaxing element of a pedicure or even the social part.

I have been going to my chiropodist Richard Jackson for over 12 years when he use to rent out a room in a Health club when i was a Beauty manager it was a valued service and i often referred my clients to him or a chiropodist near them as Richard is London based because sometime a pedicure isn't going to fix corns etc and you want the best for your client.

I had my feet looked at last week i just had the excess hard skin taken off and my feet feel light as a feather but not too much was taken as you do need some for protection.

I also found a wonderful product on my travels last week it is called Magnesium flakes by a brand called Transdermal Zechstein inside mineral soak which is muscle relaxation and remineralisation which is excellent if you suffer from bad circulation, muscle cramps and really popular with athlete's also beneficial for psoriasis  a client told me it was good for her Mother who has diabetes 1 as they lack magnesium.

How you use it is up to you i use it as a foot soak half mug of the flakes into a bowl of warm water and soak for 20 minutes if you have the time, also can be used in the bath would be even better for your whole body it makes me feel so relaxed so wouldn't advise it if planning to go out but the next day felt fab also feet where really soft so not only was i soaking my feet for relaxing it was a health benefit too.

I bought mine in a health store called panacea or by on line at www.panaceaonline.co.uk most good Health stores, pharmacies should stock magnesium flakes also check out www.betteryou.uk.com also Richard Jackson's website for more details is www.insteptherapy.com

Hair detox

In my blogs so far i haven't talk about Hair care and these are some products i use and great for complimenting your hair care regime or other products you are using at home.

The first brand i want to talk about is Hair fix i worked with this range for about 8 years helping out the company in the early days providing training and sales support for Kevin Kelly the owner and Philip May who i mentioned in my thank Blog who helps with the distrubution.

The products i am going to talk about in Hair fix is the three step detox weekly treatment or when your hair needs help.

The Hair fix three step regime is like a facial but for your hair.

 The first product you use


RELEASE: THIS GETS RID OF ANY BUILD UP YOU MIGHT HAVE ON YOUR HAIR I.E HAIR GELS, SPRAYS AND ANY OTHER STYLING PRODUCTS.

TO USE THE RELEASE YOU JUST DAMPEN YOUR HAIR FIRST NO SHAMPOO JUST WATER THEN APPLY THE RELEASE IT WON'T FOAM UP THIS IS NORMAL THIS IS PREPARING YOUR HAIR FOR STEP TWO.

YOU NEXT USE

REVIVE: THIS IS THE SHAMPOO THIS DOES FOAMS UP USE A SMALL COINS WORTH IF YOU HAVE MORE HAIR YOU MIGHT NEED A BIT MORE THIS WILL REVIVE YOUR HAIR AND ENRICH IT WITH KERATIN TO LOCK IN THE MOISTURE AND THEN RINSE.


YOU NEXT USE

REPLENISH: THIS COME IN TWO TYPES DRY AND FINE THIS IS THE CONDITIONER WHICH CONDITIONS IN PROTEIN AND HAS A UV FILTER, I USE MY FINGERS BUT YOU COULD USE A COMB FROM THE MIDDLE OF YOUR THE HAIR TO THE TIPS AVOID THE SCALP AS YOU DON'T NEED MOISTURE THEIR THE RELEASE AND THE REVIVE HAS COVERED THAT CONCERN THEN RINSE PAT DRY AND STYLE AS NORMAL.


These products are really effective for making your hair feel it can breath again also ideal a week before you colour your hair it makes your hair colour even better as your not colouring on top off old residues that stay on the hair.


For more information go to www.hairfix.co.uk their is a helpful video which explains more and also you can see more of the range.

Waxing do's and don'ts

With the hot weather at the moment in London their is a mad rush for waxing it is easier send than done but in the long run best to try and get into a routine be less painful.

I had a really busy day of waxing on Friday with a lot of clients waxing in their lunch breaks on a limited time but still expect the good results so had to work at top speed.

IF YOUR LATE EXPECT THE THERAPIST TO DO WHAT SHE CAN WITH THE TIME IF SHE HASN'T ANYTHING AFTER YOU SHE CAN THEN DO YOUR FULL TREATMENT,

I have a new name for this service it is the EXECUTIVE WAX the client just lies back can work on her phone then i can concentrate on doing a good job without skipping corners obviously if a client isn't in a hurry part of being a good at waxing is putting client at ease and having a chat if they want too and asking them what they want.


I will be talking in more details about waxing in future Blogs.

Lauren's way tan

On Friday i said i was going to have a spray tan at Lauren's Salon and it didn't disappoint. I had the Intense 12% which is 4 to 5 shades darker than your natural tan as i am filming a training video for Salon owners for Lauren's way more on this in future blogs.

What i like about this tan is it does not look like a fake tan and it seems to look better day by day.

Eye concealer

When you find an eye concealer that works for you and does what you want stick with it my favourite is Bobbi Brown tinted eye bright i first use the Bobbi Brown corrector.

 You can buy it in John Lewis, Selfridges

.Once you have had a make up consultation you then will find the right one for you.


The correcter goes on with a little brush working into your eye alcove then blend then clink the eye bright pen and repeat.


I keep it in my make up bag for touch ups during the day i do not like running out as really makes a difference to my over all look i apply mine in this order


Primer
correcter
tinted eye bright

foundation.

This eye bright can be used by Men too, i won't tell and you can hide it.

The next generation of facials

As a therapist and a client we are wanting so much more from our facials. I can remember the first time i had a facial at college and that is sometime ago but you never forget your first one even though it was in a learning environment.

I have always looked after my skin and bought shop products,but to learn how to properly look after your skin and to use the products correctly was a break through and i remember thinking "Oh i really haven't thought of correct cleansing regime" i had just been splashing my skin then applying moisturiser hap hazily but i always used an eye cream which i am so glad i did as this is my area of concern being a smiley person.

What i am finding now is clients our becoming more sophisticated and wanting so much more from their facials which brings me to what i was doing this week Glycopeel  facials.


I was doing a training for a company called Beauty Lab, based in the UK.


Glycolic peels are the way forward for the client and the therapist.

The reason why is simple in a facial you do get a double cleanse ,sometimes  under steam, you should get exfoliation, massage, extraction's if required, mila extractions, mask this is the standard obviously a salon uses different product houses EXAMPLE: DERMALOGICA.CLARINS,ELEMIS the list goes on.but as therapists we follow pretty much the same method.

You can should then leave the salon after the facial hopefully relaxed or re energised and skin looking good.

What i want now is more "RESULT DRIVEN FACIALS" that is why Glycolic peels are the way forward it isn't a s scary as you think ,you leave feeling like your skin has been reborn and going deeper tackling skin concerns "No Samantha out of sex and city " if you ever saw that episode you can have this on your lunch break first one takes an hour includes  consultation, treatment is about 45 minutes then home care.
 AFTER THAT THE GLYCOPEEL TREATMENT IS 45 MINUTES.

 BEST TO HAVE A COURSE OF SIX TO SEE THE BENEFITS, BUT YOU WILL WITH ONE TOO. MORE BLOGS TO COME ON GLYCOPEEL.

THE GLYCOPEEL WILL

REDUCE THE FOLLOWING

FINE LINES

PIGMENTATION

AGE SPOTS LIVER SPOTS

SCALY PATCHES AND ROUGH SKIN


BLACKHEADS



SEE ABOVE PRESS CUTTING ON GLYCOWASH FOR HOME USE A BRILLIANT FACIAL WASH THAT IS GENTLE BUT EFFECTIVE AND TO BE USED AS HOME CARE FACIAL WASH AFTER YOUR FIRST GLYCOLPEEL YOU CAN ALSO USE IT ALL THE TIME AS A FACIAL WASH AND GOOD FOR ALL SKIN TYPES.

YOU CAN HAVE THE PROFESSIONAL GLYCOPEEL AT EARTH SPA, VICTORIA IN LONDON WHERE I PROVIDED TRAINING.

Beauty UK Mayfair House, London


On 2nd May did a Beauty event with my colleagues at Linda Hill Beauty Agency it was lot of fun. We were their to provide file and polish with the Beauty UK nail varnishes which i haven't heard of before the event so always good to discover a new product, they had great selection of colours and more importantly went on really quickly.

The Beauty UK varnishes dry speedily which is good when your doing polishes back to back so makes a good product not only for professionals but home use as they didn't run or bleed as we all know that feeling off painting your nails then smudging them or you think they are dry and not.


I believe you can purchase them at Super drug and Boots.

The event had stylists as well as make up artists.

Also the event was to promote the new Batiste dry shampoo called lace which i was lucky to get one has a more subtle smell more sophisticated more like a light perfume but for your hair.

All for now.
