Skin Essentials News Letter
  October - November 2008

A word from our founder...

As I look back upon the nearly 14 years since I embarked upon my dream of bringing a full service, high quality spa to our wonderful small town community, I am proud of the lessons learned through the many changes. I am grateful for all of you who have stood by me and our family of professional staff, as we continually grow in our respective crafts, elevating the standards of client care. Most of all, I am profoundly touched when I realize that through all of this, many of you have quietly, yet assuredly grown alongside me, no longer simply clients, but my dear friends and trusted colleagues.

It is in this context that I ask you to join me now in welcoming the newest members of our talented and capable staff to our family. I know that when you come in for your services, the infusion of their positive energy will be evident. You will be uplifted by our continued, but renewed commitment to our mission. We want to make a positive difference in your life, helping you to refocus your stress into positive energy; caring for you: body, mind, and spirit. Please visit our website or come in to meet our new Spa Director, Contessa Miller and Nail Technician, Tovah Lewis. I know that you are going to love them!

On-site Seated Chair Massage

Some of our clients have expressed an interest in our on-site seated chair massage as a benefit to their staff. We invite business owners and managers to call us for a demonstration of this service and consider how your staff and business can benefit. Massage helps to relieve tension, and reduce stress and fatigue. Reward your staff with our on-site services and they will reward you with improved morale and increased productivity.

Seasonal Skin Care

Fall is a great time to reconnect with you, and recognize that in order to meet the demands of life in general, while providing for the care and well being of your family, you must first take care of yourself. With the approaching holiday season, I know that you are going to give completely of yourself. I urge to you prepare by taking time to relax, rejuvenate, and refresh yourself. Fall is a great time to reevaluate your skin care routine. After the long, sunny days of summer, your skin needs a drink! We encourage you to read on. You will find featured special treats to refresh, rejuvenate, and hydrate your skin, and leave it positively glowing!

Specials

Seasonal Service Specials

What is Skin Essentials cooking up for the upcoming holiday season? I’ll give you a hint: it has a rich, deep orange color; a smooth and creamy texture, and an aroma that beckons, “welcome home.” That’s right: Pumpkin, pumpkin, pumpkin! Not only does it make a delicious pie that warms the cockles of your heart, but it also has unique enzymes with properties that offer gentle, thorough exfoliation, as well as deep, nourishing hydration to your skin. Therefore, throughout October and November:

With each pedicure, receive a free pumpkin mask for the feet. Book your pedicure today with Robyn or Tovah and you will be amazed that pumpkin is such a sweet treat for your feet!

Receive $15 off a pumpkin enzyme peel with a Hydrating Facial and Self-Heating Seaweed Sensation by Darla.

Special Service…Pat’s Mojito Delight

Inspired by client request, and in her honor, we are proud to bring you Pat’s Mojito Delight. This is a perfect treatment to get your mind, body, and spirit primed for the season. You will begin with an aromatic sugar scrub, with the essence of lime. The sugar, as it is massaged into your skin, provides a gentle, hydrating peel, while the fragrant essence of lime lifts your spirits. Then, you will be ushered into our Relaxation Room, where you will be served a champagne “moji-toe” to enjoy while your feet are treated to a special pedicure, with mojito inspired lime and spearmint mask to soothe and soften your feet. This special limited-time service is being offered at the price of $135.00, which reflects a $40.00 discount. This special service is brought to you at the suggestion of Pat. What service will we name for you?

From the Heart

Recent events have indicated the need for a gentle, but important reminder to our clients. Please be aware that when you have an appointment scheduled, our therapists and spa staff have scheduled their time accordingly, putting forth time and effort to ensure that you receive the level of service and attention to detail that you richly deserve. Therefore, if circumstances arise which will prevent you from keeping an appointment; please call to let us know right away. We will be happy to reschedule your services for a more convenient time. This is important not only to our therapists, but also to other clients who need to schedule with them. We appreciate your consideration.
