Salon York PA You know when you put products on your skin and five minutes later and you have to reapply because it just hasn’t stayed. It’s like the cute football player that was really nice to look at but as soon as they open their mouth, your mouth drops open you want to give him back because it doesn’t have substance but was really nice to look at. This totally relates to product ingredients. Just because it smells good and great fragrance doesn’t mean its a great product. There is great diversity in product ingredients that are going into the products at the mall. For example, the second ingredient on your ingredient label called Petroleum is an oil. The equivalent of putting motor oil on your skin. This will penetrate the top layer of skin.

The beginning listing of products on the ingredient label will be the highest concentration of the actual product. The least amount of the product will be in the ending of the list. Keep that in mind for those of you that love to read labels. I’ve had a thorough education in ingredients. I was stunned when I learned how to make our products. Yes, you have to have a thickener but do you really have to have all of those chemicals in products anymore? No you do not. I’ve learned that you have to have some products that will “bind” ingredients together to keep the product together in a form but not necessarily use harsh chemicals.

For example, a question that I get often is why do you have to have preservative? Of course, when you are placing your fingers into a tub of  moisturizer at the counter bacteria may have landed on your fingers without you even knowing it. Keep that in mind the next time you want to sample a product. Always use the spatula or dipping item to place the product in your hand. The preservative will KILL the bacteria that may linger after you are long gone. This ingredient will prevent bacteria causing agents to create pimples or other skin disorders that could develope. WE are careful at Indulge Salon with how we apply our products onto your skin.

Salon York PA Clients are clamouring into the salon and repurchasing the new Egyptian Musk. It comes in a creme’ pronounced Creme Brulee’. The lotion is really light as
our customers have described.

You know I love feedback with any of our products and services. Our clients have expressed that they don’t like the”greasy” feel and you know that we don’t want the grease feel on our clothes linens or anything else our skin comes in contact with. When you use the Body Butter Bars, remember they are for the ultimate moisturization and then if you feel that a little scent would enhance your perfume than that would be a great addition plus the light moisture added.

I’m so proud that we don’t have the junk in our products like so many other moisturizing lines. I know because I have been seeking out the best products to compare ours to ensure that our clients are receiving the best result for their skin. If you would like to share with me your favorite product and why. I would truly love to hear what you have to say. Thanks for participating.

Salon York PA A while ago, I got back from New York with mega blisters on top of the toes and the sides of myfeet. I totally believe in looking your best but seriously I need to reconsider my choice of shoes when doing business in the Big Apple. I left about 8:30a.m. thinking great I’ll get off the train at Penn Station and walk up in 95 degree heat to 5th Avenue. Sure, I say to myself. This walk will be no problem except after 3 blocks of traffic, people pushing into me and not saying excuse me and lastly my steps were getting shorter as I was squinching (is that a word? I made it up) my toes together in my open toed fabulous Tod shoes that had to be worn to make a statement. After 20 minutes of small step walking, I arrived at Guinot Building and took the elevator up to the 9th floor.

Air conditioning felt amazing as I gently walked into the suite. I couldn’t wait to sit down! The meeting was interesting. I met with some really terrific people at the Guinot office. The new Director of Marketing named Josee is really informed and is helping me deliver the best spa services available to our clients in York PA. She came on board about 3-4 weeks ago and I wanted to know where the company was going for the year. We always plan 1 year in advance so I thought this was reasonable. I met the owner of Guinot products and he gave me the most fabulous gift which was red nylon bag with a leather tab and leather handles. I took the wrap off that was protecting it and used it the rest of the day. I was forever grateful for a carry all. (Later on the shoes I was wearing went into the bag) I met with the general manager who was consumed with our financial progress and was more than helpful to set me straight for the next quarter. I’m sure you have experienced this in your business dealings right?

I had preplanned my day and after the morning meeting, I met one of my favorite people named Andrew. He is the owner of The Beauty Resource. He has also been my mentor for over 6 years and I have had the best fortune to have him as my friend. We met for lunch at this fabulous eatery call Italeatory. You want to talk about fantastic food. I’ve never seen such a clean place that serves up such beautiful organic food. Andrew and I shared some tomato soup that was delicious and I had fried vegetables. It was also an opportunity to give my precious feet a break! We caught up on some business and we moved on forward in the day.

My goal was to find some fabulous shoes to finish the rest of the walk to Penn Station. Do you think there would be one shoe store like Aldo or Nine West or anything else that comes to par with style. NO of course not. Not one flip flop store. Nothing. I removed my painful coverings and went barefoot. Yes I did. I know you are shocked but I had to to survive. At about 4:03 arriving onto the Amtrak train towards Lancaster my feet were able to breathe again and relax. Unfortunately, the blister atop my toe is 1/4″ high and ready to burst. The blisters on the sides already burst and are constant reminders of my day. I had a very productive day however; I will be rethinking my choice of shoes the next time I decide to manage my business in New York City. My feet will be propped up like a dead deer on the road. Straight up to drain the feet from being swollen..
