Pedicures: The Foot Fix

Spring is around the corner and soon all of the shoes that have been hibernating all winter will once again make an appearance. All of your adorable flip-flops and sandals, peep toe pumps and strappy heels are begging you to get a pedicure. Pamper your toes with a fabulous day at the spa! Why not:

-Indulge in one of Skindulgence's Signature Spa Pedicure? It includes:
~ A foot soak, a nail trim as well as a cuticle and callous removal. Followed by a peppermint scrub and an aromatherapy leg and foot massage. Top it all off with a perfect polish application and enjoy a bottle of our signature hand and body lotion to take home with you! Divine!

-But why not baby your feet? Slip into a pair of Free Toes, a brilliant idea by a young entrepreneur from White Rock. They're socks that have no toes so that you can still wear flip flops or sandals without your feet getting cold or mussing up your nail polish.

- Complete the pedicure package with a pair of Flojos, the most comfortable and stylish flipflop on the market. Not only will your feet like fabulous they'll keep your polish smudge free until they've totally dried.

- Don't forget to pick up a bottle of the nail polish you just had expertly applied to your toes so you can do touch-ups on any chipping.

At Skindulgence we believe in pampering yourself top to bottom and we allow you to do just that. Give your feet some love!

Sincerely,
Skindulgence

Top O' The Morning!

Happy St. Patrick's Day! While it may be customary to toast a pint (or two) of Guiness to dear Saint Patrick try not to overindulge. Alcohol dehydrates you, and your skin leading to puffy eyes, dark circles and dry, parched skin. Keep your water levels up by drinking a glass of water in between the harder beverages.

Most importantly, know your limit and plan for a safe ride home! Other than that, have a fun night with your friends!

Donate to the Women's Shelter

I wrote about this recently, but I think it's such a wonderful idea it deserves it's own post. At Skindulgence we believe in giving back. We decided to combine our philanthropy with our passion: introducing clients to the fabulous skincare lines we carry, GM Collin and Yonka.

When you bring in any two (2) products from another skincare line that are at least half full, we will donate them on your behalf to the Women's Shelter. In return, you'll receive 10% off when you purchase up to two skincare products of your choice! Bring in three (3) or more products and receive 15% off when you purchase up to three skincare products.

Instead of throwing out that moisturizer that didn't hydrate your skin enough or that cleanser that just didn't do the trick, why not do something good for your community (and yourself)? Skindulgence and the Women's Shelter thank you for your generation donation and support.

Sincerely,
Skindulgence

Galvanic Spa Treatment

At Skindulgence we have established ourselves as leaders in non-invasive age management solutions and we are always on the look out for new technology and products that will help you live well and age well!

The Galvanic Technology has been around for decades in the Spa industry, especially in Europe, but the machines were cumbersome to use. Luckily, with the new handheld device the power of Galvanic is easy to use and the results on the skin are dramatic! Skindulgence is proud to introduce The Galvanic Spa Treatment to our clients! You can do it as an add-on to super charge the results of your spa treatment or you can buy the machine and use it at home for progressive results! The Galvanic Spa Treatment does not replace your facials or daily skincare regimen, but was created to further enhance the penetration and effectiveness of your products and treatments by up to 70%!

So, how does it work? The patented hand held device uses low level galvanic (electric) current to transport key nutrients to the skin that dramatically smooth the wrinkles and lift the skin. It also improves the cleansing, hydration and circulation. The galvanic system only works with specially charged positive and negative products that were created to be used with the device. We will have the handheld device in the spa by the end of March so call to book your introductory offer today!

Seeing is believing. Our Spa Director, Tazeem Jamal, had half of her face treated last week and even though she has healthy skin she noticed a difference:
"I noticed that the smile lines around my mouth diminished and that my skin was less oily. Bonus! My coworker (who knew nothing about the Galvanic treatment) noticed my skin looked brighter. I am really looking forward to using the machine at home."

As an add-on to a clinical facial it will be offered at:
$49 (reg $59) for the face only
$69 (reg $ 79) for face and neck
$79 (reg $99) for face, neck and back of hands

We are certain you will be thrilled with the results! Try it today and see the amazing results for yourself!

Call us to book your appointment 604.469.2688 or to find out more information.
Sincerely,
Skindulgence
