The Myth Of Cloudy Days By Beauty Salon Great Missenden – Call Us On 01494 865005
Nope. Not ever. Never. In fact, don’t even think about it. You do need sunscreen on cloudy days! That’s because there is no such thing as a sunless day. It might be nowhere to be seen, but 80% of the sun’s UV rays still hit your skin.
And that means an 80% chance of increasing premature wrinkling, age spots, spider veins…get the picture?
Car windows block UVB rays but let in UVA rays, which cause the premature signs of aging. And on snowy days? Those UV rays reflect off of it.
So don’t save sunscreen for just the beach or summer or when you feel like wearing it. It really is important to protect yourself all year round!

When The Pain Is Too Great For Massage To Alleviate By Beauty Salon Great Missenden – Call Us On 01494 865005
When you hurt from a chronic health condition, you just want relief. Medications help ease that pain, but they can also dull your senses and reflexes.
Massage greatly benefits each of these chronic health concerns:
- Back pain
- MS
- Arthritis
- Fibromyalgia
- Stress, anxiety
- Circulatory problems
- Insomnia
- Depression
It promotes easy relaxation and the removal of toxins. But when the pain is so deep it seems nothing—not even massage—can penetrate and ease it, what can you do?
Fortunately, an advanced form of massage works wonders. Aroma Stone Therapy uses essential oils and heated basalt stones for deep pain relief. Warmed stones are placed on the most painful, sore spots of your body.
The heat, not hands, does the work to deeply loosen the constrictions. Then your massage therapist uses her skills to work those areas more deeply without pain.
The results are remarkable! You have far less pain, more freedom of movement and a calmer mind. Imagine a life like that!

Beware Of Green Washing Products! By Beauty Salon Great Missenden – Call Us On 01494 865005
As natural products grow in popularity, companies less committed to product potency are riding the wave to make a buck.
These companies will make products appear natural even though they are loaded with preservatives and chemicals. It’s called green washing.
With the new scientific evidence demonstrating the essential inclusion of an antioxidant serum, ingredients such as green tea and vitamin C are added to every imaginable product.
The problem? Not all vitamin C is created equal, which means the product potency isn’t as beneficial.
Vitamin C is tricky to work with because it isn’t stable. Pairing it with vitamin E helps to stabilize this indispensable element, but again, it’s all in how it’s handled.
If vitamin C is exposed to air it can actually increase the formation of free radicals! That’s why antioxidant serums for $7.99 are not only a waste of money; they can actually age your skin!
Our product line is known for its purity and it’s commitment to skin care. You can absolutely be guaranteed of its potency. After all, the results show up on your skin!
Have you noticed how long our products last? That’s just another example of quality and purity.
You will never have to worry about green washing with us. Our highest commitment is to your skin.

Why Winter Feels Like A Never Ending Monday By Beauty Salon Great Missenden – Call Us On 01494 865005
In summer, we celebrate the endless days of light and sunshine. But winter? Each cold and cloudy day is just one more date to mark off on the calendar. How many more days until Spring?
Brrrr!
It’s no wonder that depression rates go up as sunlight and temperatures drop. That’s why it’s so important to take additional self-care measures to carry you through the cold season.
1. Increase your vitamin D. Sunlight levels are less in the winter, but get as much of it as you can and increase your vitamin D. It helps to increase energy levels.
2. Buy fresh flowers! The vibrant colours of a Spring bouquet add freshness and cheer to any room.
3. Wear bright colours. It’s hard to feel down with vibrant splashes of colour! It’s uplifting both for the body and the mind.
4. Exercise. Yes, indeed. Get that blood and serotonin pumping! It’s a sure cure for the winter blues.
5. Spa treatments are a must. What’s your favourite treatment for keeping your mood light and your skin hydrated? Make sure you schedule regular treatment times to keep the winter blues at bay.
There’s nothing more important than your health! And, as you know, we specialise in good health. Just another reason to put us at the top of your self-care list this winter.

How To Get A Flawless Bikini Wax By Beauty Salon Great Missenden – Call Us On 01494 865005
Who doesn’t love a smooth bikini area? It takes all the worry out of going to the beach. It also gives your whole intimate area a cleaner more defined look.
Because bikini waxing can be uncomfortable, and for some, embarrassing, we go the extra mile for our clients.
You are draped at all times and we use a disposable G-string to add to your comfort. The G-string actually helps us to do a more precise job. You can show us the line of your swimsuit using the G-string as a guide.
This allows us to further tailor your wax to your needs. Next up is the wax itself. You won’t find this kind of wax in a convenience store. Our wax does not adhere to your skin, only the hair.
That means less discomfort you. And to further reduce discomfort, we apply a pre-oil to soften your skin and reduce irritation.
As seasoned wax professionals, we know that women are more sensitive to pain around the time of their menstrual cycle. That’s why we encourage you to schedule your bikini wax a week before or after your period.
Lastly, you can rest assured that hygiene is a top priority with us. We use only disposable panties and we never, ever double dip wax spatulas!
A few quick minutes in our experienced care and you’re off to enjoy your flawless wax!
