IPL Permanent Hair Reduction and Photorejuvenation

Posted on September 29, 2010 by vanessa

What are the advantages of IPL?

* IPL treats thousands of hair follicles at once

* Shaving only results in stronger and denser hair growth

* Chemical depilation is slow, repetitive, messy and not permanent

* Lasers have a small head spot size, ineffective skin cooling , and are slower, more painful, with increased downtime and occasional burning

* Treatment with IPL is far superior and quicker with the fast pulsing frequency and huge head size, large areas like full legs, or arms, or a man’s chest can be treated in a relatively short period of time.

* IPL is very efficient at permanently destroying most of the targeted hair follicles. Most people get an extremely effective hair reduction with each treatment, with very little hair re growth after completing a course of treatments. Some people get complete hair reduction with no regrowth, some people require a maintenance treatment once a year or so.

* Treatments commence at 4 to 5 weekly intervals, for the first 5 to 6 treatments, for maximum benefits. A 7th or 8th treatment is usually added at one to three month intervals.

Shellac Nails – The newest thing in polish, last up to 3 weeks without chipping!

Posted on September 16, 2010 by vanessa

CND (Creative Nail Design), the leader in professional nail, hand and foot beauty, is proud to introduce the first hybrid nail color after nearly five years of development in its state-of-the-art laboratory. Now you can say good-bye to chips, smudges, and dry time and say hello to Shellac™ Hybrid Nail Color! This revolutionary product applies like polish, wears flawlessly for 14 days of high gloss shine, and is removed in minutes.

Shellac™ truly is a hybrid of traditional nail polish and UV gel polish. Unlike soak-off gels it comes in a polish bottle and unlike traditional polish it cures/dries under a UV lamp. Though what I really liked is there is NO BUFFING. There is absolutely no damage to the natural nail in the process. So how does it work?

Shellac paints on like polish – base coat, color, top coat – and is cured in a UV light so there is zero dry time. The colors are hypo-allergenic, and “3-Free” – no formaldehyde, toluene or DBP. Shellac will launch in a range of 12 varieties of shades, from pretty French pinks and whites, to siren red and rich darks. The formula is thin and flexible like polish, so it not only looks natural, it provides strong natural nail protection with a resilient mirror finish that resists dullness and chipping, even during the most rigorous activities.

Pregnancy Massage

Posted on August 4, 2010 by vanessa

Pre natal massage is a fantastic way to realign the spine, and relieve tired aching muscles, and lower back pain.

Enjoy a pregancy massage with a specialised pre natal aromatherapist, using The Belly Bag allowing you to enjoy your massage from head to toe, lying on your tummy.

Pregnancy is a time of great change to mind, body and spirit.

The body transforms with the creation of new life and in preparation for delivery. Aches and discomfort during pregnancy are often side effects experienced as the body makes it’s preparation for birth.

Enlargement of the abdomen alters the centre of gravity . The body compensates for this change in balance, increasing pressure on the neck and lower back. A rush of the hormone Progesterone softens the tendons and ligaments and the usually stiff joints of the pelvis begin to loosen up to allow for an easier passage for the baby to deliver. This puts stress on the lower back muscles causing backache.

The Belly Bag allows the spine to rest in a neutral position, easing neck and lower back pain.

In the case of posterior and breech baby positions, resting with the abdomen facing downwards in the Belly Bag can help to turn the baby to optimal position for labour and birth.

The enlarged belly makes it difficult to find a comfortable resting position. The Belly Bag contours to the shape of the individual, supporting the body as required for maximum comfort.

The Belly Bag is a unique bean bag, specifically designed for relaxation during pregnancy.
