LIVING, THINKING + BEING MORE THAN SKIN VOTED BEST BEAUTY DESTINATION 2014 With the Hollywood award season in full swing, it was the perfect opportunity for the winners of Bauer Media's Best in Beauty Awards 2014 to be announced at a glittering event last week. Alongside the vast array of winning lotions and potions the best beauty destination in New Zealand was also acknowledged with the top honour going to More Than Skin Spa & Beauty. In the five months leading up to the unveiling, Bauer Beauty editors trialled thousands of products and treatments to arrive at their final list of nominees. They also launched the new best beauty destination category this year, replacing the previous best salon and best day spa awards (which More Than Skin also won in 2013). The winners were then chosen by public vote on Bauer’s official fashion and beauty website. Almost 50,000 online votes were placed for over 80 beauty product and treatment categories. The top beauty destination section was hotly contested by Auckland’s best and brightest, but the support of More Than Skin adherents shone through and this chain of spas and salons was awarded the prestigious title. More Than Skin are thrilled to receive this consumer recognition and media accolade which builds upon their continuing success. Ponsonby Urban Spa Manager, Vanessa Shepherdson is absolutely delighted with the win stating, “the fact that the public have chosen us as New Zealand’s best beauty destination or day spa for two years running is an incredible achievement.” She also thanked the salon’s loyal clients for their votes and ongoing support which had a huge impact on this win. Congratulations More Than Skin! To book a treatment for yourself and see what the fuss is all about, contact Vanessa and the Ponsonby team on T: 09 361 2231. F PN
