ADVERTORIAL

You Be The Skin Transformation Expert Exuviance provides the products, protocols, education and business-building tools to be your clients’ trusted skin transformation expert.

E

xuviance is a luxurious, results-driven and dermatologistdeveloped skincare line from the makers of award-winning skincare brand NeoStrata. The clinically proven at-home and professional range uses innovative, clinically proven formulations to promote Skin Fitness™, whilst natural botanicals comfort the skin and please the senses.

Behind the Brand

Exuviance was created for use in spas and beauty clinics in 2002 by worldrenowned cosmetic dermatology experts Dr. Van Scott and Dr. Yu, founders of the NeoStrata Company Inc. Exuviance has a huge global following and is one of the leading skincare brands in Scandinavia, as well as being considered a cult brand by beauty editors in the UK. In 2015 the award winning NeoStrata brand became the only brand in the UK to have won Best Cosmeceutical Brand in both the Aesthetic Awards and, for the third year running, the MyFaceMyBody Awards. Exuviance products are based on the same technologies as NeoStrata products, with formulations developed for the needs of spas, beauty clinics and at home use by the client.

The Science Behind Exuviance:

The Exuviance skincare regime promotes Skin Fitness™ - skin that behaves how it should and looks youthful and energised.

• Alpha Hydroxy Acids remove dead skin cells while stimulating cell turnover for reduced appearance of pores and a

brighter, more luminous skin. The AHA Glycolic Acid exfoliates and normalises cell turnover to clarify pores, refine skin texture and break up pigmentation. It also increases collagen and builds the skin support structure. Find Glycolic Acid in the Exuviance Glycolic Expert Moisturiser • Polyhydroxy Acids offer powerful anti-ageing benefits without irritation and strengthen the skin’s protective barrier, reducing skin redness and making skin less vulnerable. The PHA Gluconolactone is so gentle it can be used on rosacea-prone skin, as well as being an antioxidant proven to preserve the skin’s youthful elasticity.

Find Gluconolactone in the Exuviance AntiRedness Calming Serum • Bionic Acids have clinically proven benefits such as smoother skin texture and tone, without redness, or flaking. Lactobionic Acid is a very potent antioxidant and gentle on the skin. It is often used post peels, laser and microdermabrasion for its strengthening and moisturising abilities.

Find Lactobionic Acid in the Exuviance Bionic Oxygen Facial • Vitamins A, C and E act as antioxidants protecting against free radical damage.

Find Vitamin C in the Exuviance Vitamin C + Anti-ageing Booster • Peptides work to replace lost collagen and plump the skin so that it appears firm, lifted and toned. Find Peptides in the Exuviance Age Reverse Eye Contour

• Antioxidants neutralise free radicals from exposure to environmental stressors such as UV light and pollution. Find Antioxidants in the Exuviance Vespera Bionic Serum • NeoGlucosamine® is a patented non-acid amino sugar technology that gently exfoliates to promote cell turnover, diminishing the appearance of dark spots, and pore size, improving overall clarity and radiance. It is also a building block of hyaluronic acid which is clinically proven to plump and firm the skin. Find NeoGlucosamine® in the Exuviance Super Retinol Concentrate

Learn from the master

Celebrity facialist picks up top award

Aestheticians from around the US recently travelled to Secaucus, NJ to learn from the master of aesthetics herself – Repêchage CEO and Founder, Lydia Sarfati! Seasoned aestheticians, students and spa owners mastered the tools they need to achieve skin care excellence and spa success, and were introduced to the new Repêchage FUSION Express Bar and Spa Masks professional treatment, as well as the new all-natural FUSION at-home products.

Over the course of three days, attendees were exposed to a range of skin care knowledge and topics through

lecture, demonstrations and hands-on training.

“Master Class is an event that I look forward to each year,” said Lydia. “It is extremely rewarding to work with others who are passionate about skin care, and provide them with an outlet for education. I am a firm believer that knowledge is power, and that a combination of passion, hard work, and education creates a thriving career.

I consider it an honour and a huge responsibility to give aestheticians the tools they need to improve their lives.” www.repechage.com

A skincare collection created by celebrity facialist Su-Man Hsu has been awarded the prestigious International Star Diamond Award from the American Academy of Hospitality Sciences, for her Su-Man Skincare range.

The range, developed combining knowledge from Su-Man’s childhood in Taiwan with modern science, includes the award winning Purifying Cleansing Gel-Oil and Exfoliating Facial Polish.

Su-Man Skincare is the first premium skincare brand ever to receive the global award, which recognises excellence within the luxury hospitality sector. The International Star Diamond award is the latest in a string of accolades for Su-man Skincare. www.su-man.com

Clinical studies have demonstrated its efficacy, showing how it increased skin hydration by up to 73% after 30 minutes.

Enhancing the skin’s own moisture retention, the concentrate is designed to hydrate the skin and improve its defence mechanisms. The concentrated formula works to boost the skin’s normal moisture levels, prevent transdermal moisture loss, and smooth fine lines and wrinkles.

Suitable for all skin types, the line contains four products; Rosehip & Lemongrass Repair Balm, Rosehip & Lemongrass Soothing Hydrator For Face & Body, Rosehip & Lemongrass Lip Balm, and Repair & Protect Starter Set. www.theskinsmith.co.uk

Reveal your skin’s better self As skin renewal naturally starts to slow down over the years, the epidermis can thicken, becoming dull and uneven in tone, which exfoliation alone is unable to address. What it requires is something more powerful that balances the need for a stronger solution with a respect for the skin’s delicacy. ELEMIS has developed an advanced patented technology, clinically proven to provide superior resurfacing and anti-ageing results without any invasive procedures.

When used every morning and evening under your moisturiser, the Dynamic Resurfacing Serum adapts to your skin’s micro flora, maintaining its sensitive balance.

Its Tri-Enzyme Technology works by slowly releasing micro-encapsulated enzymes onto the skin, which carefully nibble away at the dead cells, breaking down proteins and revealing a new, fresher dermis. Alpha Hydroxy Acids from Hibiscus, White Lily, Gardenia and Freesia optimise a non-abrasive peeling action, while Selastin™, extracted from mineral- and vitamin-rich marine plants, is clinically proven (see website) to reduce pore size. Amino Acids and encapsulated Vitamin C brighten and tone the skin. www.elemis.com

The villa itself is open plan and airy with ornate Balinese Buddhas and intricate woodcarvings, whilst the communal areas are designed with meditation and relaxation in mind.

Woven pods and canopied massage beds that are shrouded by lush palms can be found throughout the garden and beside the glittering pool – inviting guests to have the ultimate ‘me time’ experience.

What are your most popular treatments?

Inside the sanctuary, guests can enjoy the full range of unlimited beauty

treatments from massages, body scrubs, facials and many more. The stunning new sanctuary has an on-site Yoga Shala that enables guests to experience unlimited yoga – whether they are a beginner or an experienced yogi, all levels are catered for and can enjoy this experience.

The talented chefs waiting on the guests will create whatever the heart desires, from Balinese cuisine to western dishes – the Bliss philosophy is all about finding your Bliss, your way.

Describe your accommodation After a busy day the guests can retreat to one of the heavenly bedrooms with cooling marble terrazzo floors, beautiful hand-carved Balinese four-poster beds and all topped off with a private outdoor bathroom.

Nothing could be more relaxing than a private marble terrazzo bath tub positioned under a chandelier and surrounded by tropical blooms.

In these deluxe bathrooms, guests

can pamper themselves with an array of natural organic Bliss beauty products and then wrap themselves in a daily choice of beautiful and vibrant Balinese sarongs.

What’s on your menu?

We have unlimited gorgeous food! From fresh juice on arrival, we have fresh gourmet tantalizing local healthy cuisine at every meal – breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks, and offer the opportunity to learn to cook authentic Indonesian recipes at meal preparation times.

Of course there’s an endless supply of purified or bottled water, coffee and herbal teas.

What’s to do outside of your spa treatments?

Outside the sanctuary, each guest has a dedicated private chauffer at their beck and call for unlimited sightseeing around the gorgeous island. Guests are also given mobile phones with numbers included, giving guests the security of

AUGUST 2016 | WWW.MODERN-SPA.COM | 31

WORLDWIDE SPA

being able to contact the sanctuary or the chauffer at any time.

No expense has been spared to ensure that each woman has the most blissful experience in the Seminyak sanctuary leaving all of the stress and worry of everyday life behind them.

Sightseeing can include the Tanah Lot Temple, Ubud day tours including a silver factory, art galleries, and a monkey forest, the best shopping areas, the best sunset cocktail bars, Uluwatu beaches, healing mineral springs, picturesque waterfall, and Tirta Empul traditional water healing.

What do you consider to be your USP? We are different from a retreat, in that guests are there for themselves, not to fit into group activities or lose weight, or to ‘better’ yourself somehow...

Importantly it is a space where guests can follow their own Bliss and have some ‘me time’ in a relaxing, beautiful, kind and nurturing environment. www.blisssanctuaryforwomen.co.uk

The Body Retreat, Somerset

The personal touch is guaranteed at The Body Retreat; co-founder Juls Abernethy explains their approach AUGUST 2016 | WWW.MODERN-SPA.COM | 37

T

he Body Retreat was founded in 2010 by Julie Brealy and Juls Abernethy and is the only UK Health Retreat that is run exclusively by women for women.

Going from strength to strength, The Body Retreat now runs 28 individual residential retreats each year.

Tell me about your ethos?

At The Body Retreat we understand from both personal experience and from our years of study, training and expertise that when it comes to losing weight, getting fit, managing stress or any other well being goal, women need to attend to both their mental and emotional health at the same time as their physical bodies – so The Body Retreat does just that!

Keeping the group sizes small (between 5-10 women on any retreat) means that clients are guaranteed an

individual and personalised retreat experience.

Describe your locations The Body Retreat runs in private accommodation in venues in Somerset, Dorset, Andalusia and France. Our main property is in the Tone Valley in Somerset. We have chosen our retreat locations and venues for their stylish accommodation, inspiring locations and relaxing facilities so that clients can get the most out of their retreat.

Our venues are all different – reflecting the local area in which they are based but sharing some important common features; complete privacy, on-site spa facilities and/or pool, relaxed accommodation, spacious bedrooms and smart en-suites, quality bed linen and bathrobes – the attention to detail is a constant.

We have a gorgeous indoor spa area

with pool, sauna and hot tub as well as plenty of quiet spaces to just relax and unwind.

We also have treatments by our team of massage and holistic therapists.

What’s on the menu?

We don’t have a restaurant as it is a private house, but we do serve three meals and three snacks per day, all freshly prepared for our clients’ dietary requirements from local, seasonal and organic produce where possible.

The menu for each retreat is specifically designed to support the goals of that retreat be that weight loss, kicking sugar habits, rebalancing stress etc.

What are your most popular treatments?

Reflexology is always very popular, as is our Hot Stone Deep Tissue massage

UK SPA

which is a combination of hot stone and Swedish massage, guaranteed to get rid of any sore or achy muscles.

What are your favourite brands?

We work with Mio High Intensity Skincare as it was important to us to use ethical products with a ‘no nasties’ policy that mirrors our own ethical position. We offer their signature treatments of which Scrub, Rub & Glow is the most popular as it does exactly what it says and clients float out of the treatment room after the treatment!

We hope to begin a whole new internal training programme for all staff, to incentivise them to achieve our core Vision and Values, which will ensure great staff positivity and therefore

retention. Moddershall Oaks is also keen to maximise on the concept of well-being, and has some great (but top secret!) plans for how we are going to really push and drive a healthy lifestyle, without the boring iceberg lettuce, monotonous gym sessions and ‘slim’ shakes.

In the long term, Moddershall Oaks has its sights set on a bigger restaurant, bigger bar facilities and a bigger kitchen. This will fulfil our heavy fine-dining customer demand, as well as increase the opportunity to hold more events including private dining.

SECURITY

PROTECTING YOUR ASSETS Putting safety first means a more relaxing experience for all...

S

teven Gunnip, Director, Salon Evolution, explains that with a few simple routines, you can easily improve the safety of your staff and clients, and the security of your premises.

“Businesses lose millions of pounds annually – and may even fail due to losses related to crime,” he said.

“Spas are included in this statistic, and may be at a security risk for burglary, theft and injury due to employee negligence and other factors.

Spa owners should take steps to avoid incidents and losses by tightening lax security procedures within the salon environment.”

Spa managers can ameliorate these risks by including the following points in their safety and security assessments: Background Checks Owners should perform background checks on all potential employees before hiring them to work in the spa. If an applicant has a history of theft or other criminal activity, you should investigate them more thoroughly before initiating the hiring process.

Employee Handbook Write an employee handbook to

document the rules and procedures of the spa.

Distribute the handbook to all employees and have regular meetings to discuss security measures and address any problems that may arise from employee disregard of salon rules.

a prime target for crime.

Cash Register Assign one person to work the cash register all day to eliminate the potential for mistakes or monetary theft. This can be either a receptionist or other designated spa employee. This can also be done in shifts if there are employee changes throughout the day, with money counted by the cashier in charge at the end of each shift and documented for management.

Deposit all cash register monies at the end of the day to ensure safety of the funds.

Safety Measures Install both exterior and interior lighting in and around the spa to decrease the risk of night-time crime.

All back doors should be locked and dead bolted. Front doors equipped with a warning device such as a bell will alert employees when Steven Gunnip, Director, Salon Evolution someone has entered the spa.

INTERIOR DESIGN

BRAND YOUR BOUTIQUE The interior design of your salon or spa tells a client a lot about you – make sure it’s a good tale!

H

igh Definition’s CEO and Co-Founder, Nilam HolmesPatel, has recently worked alongside an interior design company to bring to life her vision for the new boutique in Notting Hill. We ask her about the inspiration behind the design, and how it’s working out…

What was the inspiration behind the interior style?

The interior is an extension of our High Definition style, with a monochrome colour scheme, and our signature black and white stripe – which is also used on our High Definition make up packaging – making an appearance at the pedicure station on both the walls and the seating, and the manicure station walls, to really highlight our brand’s style.

Which products/materials were chosen, and why?

The materials and products chosen were all true to the High Definition style – we used high gloss black acrylic, which reflects the product packaging and all the High Definition academies’ furniture. As with all the academies and boutiques, all of the furniture is bespoke.

Was there anything in the brief that caused any issues? If so, what were they and how were they overcome?

The original layout had to change once we started putting the furniture into the boutique. As it is a working space, we noticed that the flow of traffic within the boutique wasn’t right, but all of our furniture is modular so we could change the layout quite easily to make sure it was perfect.

How long did the overall interior design and fit take?

It was in development for around a year, and then the fit itself took approximately two months.

What are the top three interior features?

1. The pedicure pods are black and white stripe leather – which is a great contrast to the high gloss black acrylic surroundings.

2. Venetian plaster was used on the walls and ceilings – this adds a really high quality finish.

3. The modular furniture ensures that the layout can be altered easily depending on what the boutique requires.

How many workstations are there?

We have three brow chairs, one manicure station, two pedicure pods, and two treatment rooms.

How many technicians can work here?

There can be up to eight technicians doing treatments at any one time.

Where can we find the new boutique?

High Definition’s newest Beauty Boutique Notting Hill is at 102 Ladbroke Grove, London, W11 1PY www.beautyinhighdefinition.com

Beauty and the Bead B-Line has adopted a leading role amid global environmental concerns about the use of plastic microbeads within the beauty industry. The decision to stop using microbeads in their top-selling Body and Sole Exfoliant reflects a growing belief that microbead pollution is a major threat to marine wildlife with potential implications to the human food chain. While many beauty brands have made a commitment to stop their use by the end of 2016/17, B-Line is one of the first UK-based companies to launch a replacement product - using natural bamboo powder instead of beads. There is no change to the name and the new formulation is safe and effective in line with B-Line’s strict product quality standards. www.b-linebeauty.com Slim shady Occles are a UV-certified travel sleep mask providing protection from UV light at altitude on a plane or to block out the intrusive reading light of the passenger next to you.

These also perform as an alternative to sunglasses for use at the beach or your poolside destination; the bridge-less design minimises tan lines. A major plus is their 21st century unrivalled design and style which you will be happy to be seen wearing. The ‘no pressure’ eyecups cover and protect the peri-orbital area of the skin around the eyes known to be more sensitive and where age spots can sometimes appear first. www.occles.co

SPA BOUTIQUE The UK’s ‘hottest’ massage Whatever the weather, this summer the heat is well and truly on as Lava Shells warm up with a brand new Tropical Twist Treatment, bringing a taste of the exotic to the hugely popular Lava Relax Massage. Drawing on the traditional Lava Shell Massage, using handcrafted porcelain shells to apply a seamless combination of massage, heat and touch, the new coconutinfused treatment will leave guests with a feeling of utter relaxation and calmness. Incorporating the stimulating effects of unique lomi lomi massage, and packed full of powerful anti-oxidants and hydrating oils found in coconut oil used in its purest form, the treatment combines the soothing warmth and silkiness of the shells with focussed pressure patterns across the legs and back area to penetrate deep into the skin, nourishing sun-parched skin and restoring a healthy summer glow. Using two heated handcrafted, non-porous porcelain shells, the New Lava Shell Tropical Twist Treatment can be used to treat even the most hypersensitive skin without risk from artificial chemicals or harsh synthetics. www.sharedbeautysecrets.com

Fly the flag Denman’s D3 brush has been an icon for nearly 80 years and has barely changed in that time. Sold to over 60 countries worldwide, it is a favourite with stylists and clients alike.

This fresh, modern version of the traditional brush features a glossy white handle, with “Love Your Denman” logo incorporating the US flag and a patriotic take on the Denman logo coloured in red, white and blue. To promote the launch, Denman will run an Instagram competition for 20 lucky winners to snap up one of these special brushes! www.denmanbrush.com

INDUSTRY INSIDER

MY LIFE… Steve Douch has been a professional make-up artist for 13 years, starting off in special effects, theatrical, fashion and photographic make-up, and has now created STV Cosmetics, a range of fantastic multi-use make-up products that are ideal for any professional make-up artists’ kit.

What’s your background – have you always worked in health/beauty?

I initially started work as a carpenter. It seems an unlikely path, but when I first left school I wanted to do something arty or involving crafts. My uncle offered me a job in construction as an apprentice carpenter, but it didn’t appeal to my artistic side enough.

My cousin taught make-up at a local college and had just branched into special effects, photographic and media make-up. I have always had a fascination with horror films and the making of the meanies, so I asked if I could try it out.

She suggested that I took a beauty and special effects make-up course, and through some family contacts I became an apprentice to a make-up artist that worked in film and theatre, and my career began!

Fast forward a few years and I started working with salons and make-up ranges until here I am today, with my very own range of products and training courses.

How do you start your day?

I wake up bright and early at 6am and go to the gym. I head into the office for around 8am. Food is the part I forget – so I am more than likely to be tempted into a bacon butty!

Do you stop for lunch or graze?

As I teach a lot I will usually have lunch while the students are also on lunch. I try my best to eat a balanced diet, however, I’m not always so successful, especially when you have to eat fast as you have a lot to do!

How do you unwind?

I can usually be found at home with my fiancé and cat, snuggled up watching rubbish television or movies.

What’s the secret to your success?

It’s not a secret, but I am dedicated to my work. I strongly believe that the more you put in the more you get out, so I make sure I give it my all.

What’s the best piece of advice you were ever given? And what advice would you pass on?

Network! The old adage is true, it’s not what you know, it’s who you know – new clients and connections can be found in all sorts of places!

Do you take nutritional supplements?

No, I have tried a few times, but I just forget to take them.

What do you think is the most exciting thing to happen recently in your sector of the spa industry?

I has to be the explosion of social media.

This massive format enables businesses of any size to have more contact with the consumer. It no longer matters what size your business is, or what budget you have, there is a free platform out there to connect with customers both old and new, and I think that is a really exciting opportunity. www.stvcosmetics.com
