Make A Splash In June With Hydrating Herbs

The majority of clients I've spoken with recently have been focusing on getting their clients ready to show their skin off this bathing suit season. The first benefit many are looking for in a product - hydration. They want to blast the skin full of moisture and moisture locking products.

Whether doing a specific menu item as their "Summer Spotlight Special" or designing a package treatment, check out the Hydrating Herbs by Amber Products. With ingredients such as strawberry leaves, sage, eucalyptus, lavender flower, and chamomile this not only helps heal dry, cracked skin it just feels good.

Jump start your June menu with a spotlight treatment designed to get your clients beach beautiful!

See our great Nufree & Finipil Product selection HERE!

Spas Source Local Plants and Flowers For Custom Spa Treatments

In a recent article by Nicole Altavilla  for American Spa Magazine, Nicole shared some of the personalized treatments spas are creating from locally sourced plants and flowers. 

According to the article, spas like Spa Matilda in San Miguel de Allende, Floral Compresses
Treatment include the application of warm compresses (Poultice) filled with locally grown dried flowers, such as lavender, orange blossom, and rose.

At Spa Heaven at Borgo Santo Pietro (Tuscany, Italy), "Fresh flowers are picked daily from the spa gardens and placed throughout the spa. What’s more, the spa boasts an alfresco canopied therapy suite next to the garden for guests to enjoy the intoxicating scents of jasmine, rose, and other flowers while they are pampered. Also, some of the spa’s treatments feature herbs and flowers handpicked before the treatment, such as the Borgo’s Nature’s Bounty ($287, 2 hours), which features a basil, rosemary, and sea salt body scrub; a massage; and a facial that includes a honey and lavender mask."

Aspira The Spa at The Osthoff Resort (Elkhart Lake, WI) offers the Wild Chamomile and Lavender Body Masque ($130, 50 minutes). Treatment includes an application of the spa’s signature body mask using wild chamomile and lavender, grown and harvested from the resort’s own Osthoff Gardens.

Are you interested in offering herbal based treatments but don't have a fresh field of botanicals to source from, Pure Spa Direct has a rich selection of bulk herbs and poultices for creating your own, bespoke treatment compresses for spa services.

I adore the idea of creating a therapeutic service from indigenous flora, this is definitely the kind of regional and bespoke treatment that my husband and I look for on the menu when "spa-ing" in different parts.

Essie Announces National Nail Polish Day - June 1st

It seems that most of our favorite things are receiving a day of honor on Social Media. My favorites happen to be National Wine Day, Taco Day and Dog Day. Maybe someone should merge all three for the best holiday ever!


Here's a photo of my favorite Essie creation.
Recently, in a WWD article, Ikdeep Singh, president of Essie, Maybelline and Garnier told the magazine, “Since we see so much brand love and hundreds of social posts on a daily basis, we thought it would be exciting to organize a national holiday for everyone to celebrate and declare their #essielove.” According to the WWD article, from mid-May to mid-June, fans will have the chance to win Essie nail polish-themed bundles. On National Nail Polish Day, a grand winner will receive 100 Essie shades.

Singh also said, “We want to recognize how important Essie nail polish is during these important life moments. “We are encouraging fans and loyalists across the country to visit essie.com/nationalnailpolishday to submit and create a unique Instagram-worthy image of their favorite mani, shade or Essie stash.”

This is your chance nail artists!

Non-Surgical Esthetic Treatments On The Rise

In an April 2017 article from SkinInc.com, it's reported that the North America esthetic services market are estimated to be worth $28.15 billion by the year 2024, increasing at a CAGR of 7.7% for each year.

This data was gathered through a recent Transparency Market Report. According to the Skin Inc.
article, the report broke up esthetic services into surgical services, non-surgical services, and reconstr­uctive procedures. Surgical services were the largest portion of the market share with 43.6% in 2015.

Though not the largest segment, non-surgical services have begun to gain in popularity. Among the most popular non-surgical service treatments were derma fillers, which represented 68.7% of the non-surgical market share.

I have noticed that many spas here on Long Island are adding these types of services with the participation of a licensed Physician. It's a great way to keep facial clients' business "in house" for all their beauty needs.

Essential Oil: Spolight on Organic Lavender

The popularity of essential oils is on the rise. Most estheticians and massage therapists have incorporated them into their treatments. Retailing them is simple, and an extra perk for your clients.

Today I want to tell you a little bit about Lavender Essential Oil, specifically
ESS® Organic Lavender High Altitude

Lavender grows at 600-1200 m altitude. The best plants, grown at 1200 m, are used to produce this exceptionally fine, high-quality Lavender. The plants for this oil are grown in the Italian Alps, near the French border. Unlike many other lavenders that have a "boiled" odor, it has a wonderfully fresh aroma, reminiscent of lavender growing wild or in gardens. Lavender is the most widely used essential oil in aromatherapy, particularly for its relaxing properties. 10 ml.

This oil has been certified as organic by the Soil Association, which means you can trace every single ingredient back to the farm where it was organically grown. Each oil is unique and fully certified to give you the highest quality possible.


Ingredients:
This is a natural Essential Oil produced by steam distillation of the bio-mass of Lavender flowers and consists of Terpenes, Terpene alcohols, and Esters - principally Linalyl Acetate.

13 Surprising Benfits of Lavender Essential Oils
  • Bug repellent
  • Sleep
  • Nervous system (migraines, headaches, depression)
  • Acne
  • Pain Relief
  • Urine Flow
  • Respiratory Disorders 
  • Hair Care
  • Cancer 
  • Blood Circulation
  • Digestion
  • Immunity
  • Skin Care

Sunless Tanning = Pure Profit & Happy Clients!

With the seasons changing, I see a huge increase in sunless tanning. Have you thought about adding spray tanning, but think it's a hassle?

Let me explain why you should offer sunless tanning services in your business, and why it is so profitable!

Start out with your equipment, I suggest the Salon TAN M-Model™ 2150 by Fuji Spray Equipment .


Then add your tanning solution! Try Tahitian Tea - it's our most popular!

Pure Sunless Tahitian Tea Tanning Mist - 1 Gallon

Experience a truly believable Tahitian beach bronzed body with NEW Tahitian Tea. This natural, island color is beautifully consistent on all skin types. As your clients bask in the light invigorating scent of refreshing Spa Mint, pale bodies are transported to the beaches of the South Pacific for a sinfully cinnamon bronze glow. This formula is fortified with Antioxidants and Vitamins for supreme hydration and rich caramel color that is habit forming.

If you are a charging $35 for a full body tan, using 3 oz. of the solution, your profit can be $1,394.33 per gallon! There are not many spa services that can boast those kinds of profits!

Some day Spas, Medi Spas, Resorts and Salons charging $65 for a full body tan, using 3 oz. of this solution, your profit can be $2,631.00 per gallon.

You can rest assured your clients will LOVE their spray tans, and continually come back!

Did you know June is National Papaya Month?

Did you know June is National Papaya Month?  Perfect for a theme!!! I'm a fan of theme days/months. I get bored with the same old routine, menus, options etc. Even if I adore a treatment, product, food etc., I get excited to see something new thrown in the mix. If a place does something different every month, it can quickly become my go to spot. It leaves me curious and looking forward to what the next surprise will be. It's like my birthday every month. Would you like your clients to think and feel that way about your business?

Ok back to papaya! This tasty fruit contains skin loving goodness including vitamin c, vitamin b, magnesium, minerals, flavonoids, and  lycopene (a carotenoid, which acts an anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant) to name a few things that make it more than just a snack.

Papaya also has a natural enzyme called papain, which is excellent at skin whitening and makes for a gentle and moisturizing exfoliator. Did I mention it helps the body combat free radicals? It's like a ninja against premature aging.

June Jacobs has you covered (June Jacobs Papaya for June Papaya Month - coincidence?)The June Jacobs papaya products are a favorite among the top spas in the world, with good reason. Those familiar with her line may back me up on this one. Paraben and preservative free along with natural ingredients such as white, red and green tea extracts combined with goji berry, pomegranate and grapeseed extracts. Clients adore everything from the packaging and scents to the results they see and feel making it the perfect retail item (if you're using June Jacobs products in services, be sure to have the retail sizes close by!) that will be a repeat sale!

Benefits of a Himalayan Salt Lamp

Did you know all the benefits of a Natural Salt Lamp? The negative salt ions released by heating can boost blood flow, improve sleep, increase levels of serotonin in the brain, and calm allergy or asthma symptoms. Besides these homeopathic perks, there's an added relaxation element. And what client doesn't want to be uber relaxed at a spa!?

By putting one in your treatment room, not only will the clients reap the benefits, but your staff too!

Check out this classic Natural Salt Lamp

One-of-a-kind and absolutely beautiful, these natural salt lamps are hand-shaped from select chunks of the finest, most potent salt crystal in the world. However, these attractive lamps provide more than ambient, soothing light. Some users may experience homeopathic health benefits from using them --the most immediate and dramatic being for those suffering from respiratory allergies and/or asthma.

Note: Due to their natural and unique quality, each lamp will vary somewhat in both color and exact form. Coloring ranges from soothing apricot and peach to deep and fiery red and orange.

All lamps include a wooden base, a six-foot UL® Listed electrical cord with a bulb of between 7 and 40 watts, based on the lamp's size.

Size: 6"-8" tall, 7-10 lbs.

Usage:

Green Comment:
There are several nice things to say about Himalayan Salt Lamps, including the fact that they are made with natural, sustainable Himalayan salt. In addition, the companies that mine the salt are socially responsible.

We have tons of options to choose from! On top of the benefits inside your spa, these make excellent retail items as well!
