Ro’s Beauty Spot News and Update – August 2013

Posted on August 13, 2013August 13, 2013 by Megan

Good Day Beauty Spotters

I apologise for sending out and email so late into the month, so it’s not really a monthly newsletter/update but I general one.

I hope you are well? I can’t believe the cold weather we’ve been having…well I kind of can, we’ve been so blessed this winter, so I suppose we had to have some cold sooner or later.

I really hope you were spoiled on Woman’s day, and appreciated for all that you do for your families and friends.
A friend posted this sticky note and thought it was super appropriate for us woman.

I did my very first woman’s day event, at the Bedfordview country club, selling and gaining exposure for Annique Rooibos Products as well as my Shamballa Jewellery. So now I’ve been bitten by the bug, and would like to ask if anyone knows or is having any functions that one can display, sample or sell at, to please let me know.

PLEASE take NOTE: that UNTIL 31 AUGUST 2013 I will be selling my Shamballa Style Jewellery at a discount price. So please see the below pricing: I have a lot of stock that I’d like to move to make room for new and exciting stuff so this is the reason for my SALE.

PLEASE VIEW CATALOGUE TO SEE SALE PRICING >>

Annique Rooibos Products have some amazing Special offer this August, so have a look and don’t forget Samples are available on request.

Beauty Spot Newsletter June 2013

Posted on May 29, 2013May 29, 2013 by Megan

Good day Beauty Spotters,

For the first time in I don’t know how many years I’m not really excited about June… normally I am, it’s my birthday month, so I’m always busy planning something for the friends and family. This year I’m starting to realize I’m getting older and so not so excited about the next month to come. Maybe that will change 😉

Anyway I hope you are ready for June as winter is here and although we’ve had pretty good weather up until now, I know it won’t last much longer.

Ro’s Jewellery collection started in May, and I’d love to thank you for your support in making it another success at Ro’s Beauty Spot. I’ve already planned my next order so should be here mid-end June, with more colours and styles for you to choose from. I really hope those that have purchased a bracelet… or 2 are loving them and receiving plenty of compliments on them.

If you wish to join my Facebook page regarding the jewellery please follow this link – Ro’s Jewellery Collection FACEBOOK. I will be adding new pictures, have giveaways, and ask for recommendations on new products.

Some Winter Advice

So we all know winter is a harsh and stressful time, especially on our bodies.

I hope that you have all increased your vitamin C and Zinc intake to help fight infections. And that you are applying your moisturiser more often, up to 5 times a day, to keep your skin hydrated, nourished and protected against the harsh dry air and cold weather. And last but not least drinking plenty of Rooibos tea to help remove toxins, fight free radicals and keep you hydrated from inside. Rooibos tea also helps fight infections so can help build up your resistance to colds and flu. Drink up to 6 cups a day to stay healthy.

Also winter is a great time to give your feet a chance to repair and give them extra nourishment after being in open shoes all summer. Some GREAT tips for winter feet care:

Remove all polish and give toe nails a good buff

Cut and keep nails short to prevent damage to the nail and ridges from closed shoes
Feed and nourish the cuticles with cuticle oil
Scrub feet twice a week to remove dead skin build up, from being in closed shoes, and increase
blood flow to the feet, helping them stay warm during the cold
Apply a good heel balm and even tissue oil to the feet twice a day to nourish and feed them
Foot file weekly to help remove any hard skin build up

Salon Specials

Ro’s Beauty spot is running some winter specials so don’t miss out:

60min Pedicure only R100
30min Mini Pedicure R70
45min women’s back and neck massage R130
Free Rooibos Tea Sample pack of 8 Annique Rooibos tea bags with every Pressed Rose Facial

Tuesday 4 June Closed
Tuesday 11 June Closed
Saturday 15 June Closed
Monday 17 June Closed
Tuesday 18 June I will be open

Saturday 29 June Closed

So please make a note of these days I will be having an Annique Stock sale sometime during the month, so please make sure you keep your eyes open for this.

Thank you to everyone who has supported me during May and I look forward to seeing you in June and July.

Keep warm and safe

Lotsa love Rowena

I still have a few people unsure of my working new hours so check them out, please note that if you used to visit me after 18h00, I am not no longer going to be able to help you. I apologise for any inconvenience but it’s for personal matters that I will no longer be taking clients at 18h00.

Beauty Spot Newsletter March 2013

Posted on March 3, 2013March 3, 2013 by Megan

Good Day Beauty Spotter

Having a good week I hope and being positive about life?

For those of you using the Annique Range, please note that the products annual price increase will take effect from 1 April 2013. I have attached both the current pricelist, valid until 31 March 2013, and the new one, effective from 1 April 2013 for you to view and compare.

I’m really sorry that I haven’t had any Treatment Specials, but my days are so busy already, that I’m scared if I offer specials I won’t be able to help those that want to book for them.

I will be running an in house Special of an extra 10% discount on your Annique Rooibos Purchase(over the value of R300) in March 2013, not applicable to Stock sale items. So make sure you get your orders in soon.

Please take note of Closed Days in March 2013

Saturday 9 March CLOSED

Tuesday 19 March I will be Open from 13h00-18h00

Thursday 21 March CLOSED

Tuesday 26 March Open 14h00-18h00

Friday 29 March CLOSED

Saturday 30 March CLOSED

Monday 1 April closed

Tuesday 2 April Open 09h00 -18h00.

Please if you wish to Download the Annique March Promotions Please CLICK HERE

Also I had a great question the other day:

How much does a starter kit(cleanser, day and night cream and freshner) cost and how long will it last?

Well a cleanser from Annique is R159 for 150ml, this should last you 4-8 weeks

A day cream is R259 for the dry/mature day cream 50ml and should last 4-6 weeks

A day cream for normal/combination skins is R179, 50ml and also should last 4-6 weeks

A night cream for dry/mature skins is R199 and for normal combination R179 and should last 4-6 weeks

The Freshners are R139 or R129 is you have a more oily skin type

So for a dry/mature skin type a starter pack should cost you R756. In March you will receive a 10% discount so will cost you R680. For a 4-6 weeks life will cost you R24 – R16 per day on your beauty products.

If you have a normal/combination skin type the same pack will cost you R646 with your 10% discount will cost you R581. For a 4-6 weeks life the cost per day is R20.5 – R13.8 for your skincare products.

Kind Regards and love you all

Beauty Spot Newsletter February 2013

Posted on February 5, 2013February 5, 2013 by Megan

Hey Beauty Spotters

So its already February and January was a great month, thank you to everyone for all your support and understanding both personally and professionally. I appreciate you and your visits to my salon. Wow so I havent really had a chance to impletement my new working hours, just been so hectic trying to fit everyone in. But im sure as time goes by I will get there, so please understand when I cant help after hours any longer.

Well as we all know February is the month of love, and I do hope and wish this for all my friends and clients. Relationships are hard work but also love is not meant to be a chore, so go out and find the love you deserve.

With all this heat that we’ve been having I do trust that you are taking hydrating to new levels. Not only with water but creams and moisturisers too, our skins(our biggest organ) also dries out and needs hydrating, and cooling down. Some great cooling tips are:

Make a freshner with green tea and cool water(in a spray bottle) and spritz over one’s face during the day. Green tea is a great anti-oxidant so good for the skin too.
A cool towel over the neck, wrists and (or if you lucky) feet to keep temperatures down
Drink Cool but not freezing cold water. Remember our kidneys also take strain when temperatures of liquids are too hot or too cold, so remember cool is healthier.
Eat small meals and eat more often. The larger the meal, the more metabolic heat your body creates breaking down the food. Avoid foods that are high in protein, which increase metabolic heat
Wear lightweight, light-coloured cotton clothes. Heat is trapped by synthetic fibres, but cotton absorbs perspiration and its evaporation causes you to feel cooler. The light colours reflect the sun’s radiation

And PLEASE remember to be using your sunblock as often as possible during the day, perspiration causes the product to wipe off so reapplication is a must.

Thank you so much for everyone who’s commented on my new Annique Display cabinet, it really is helping and allowing me to display and move more stock.

Don’t forget the salon is now closed on Tuesdays, but over the next few months we have a couple of public holidays so I will be swopping my Tuesday’s with the public holidays so that im still closed only 1 day during the week.Please note these are the days that will change and that im closed:

Saturday 16 February CLOSED Saturday 9 March CLOSED Tuesday 19 March I will be open from 13h00 until 18h00, Thursday 21 March CLOSED Tuesday 26 March Open from 09h00-1800 Friday 29 March CLOSED Saturday 30 March CLOSED Monday 1 April CLOSED Tuesday 2 April il be open from 09h00-18h00

I wish you all a wonderful February, be inspired, motivated and passionate about everything that you do, and if you not, then don’t do it!

Thanks and see you soon Xxx Rowena

Good day Beauty Spotters

I trust you are well and had a good weekend? I’m so sad February is here as summer is going by so fast. Thank you to everyone who supported me during February I had a tough month personally but I’m all good and better now.

I’m starting to become a little more adventurous with regards to nail art, and for R20 extra you can have diamante’s, silver or blue stripes, glitter or stickers added to your gel treatments and even to your toes during Pedicures! I also offer hand exfoliation and massage for R30 and foot exfoliation and massage for R40. This can be added to any treatment-Facials, manicures(if you just need a scrub and massage for your feet) Pedicures(if you need a scrub and massage for your hands), massage. So don’t forget to add this to your next treatment as something specials.

I’ve attached this month’s newsletter and important dates for you have a look at, as well as some information regarding the Annique Rooibos Man products in case you feel like spoiling that special man in your life. Have some amazing specials on these products in the Beaute too.

I’m also going to be offering Annique Lifestyle Shakes to you when you visit, so that you can taste how wonderful they are. I will be giving out chocolate flavour samples for you to taste in your treatments. The Lifestyle Shakes area a meal replacement and offer great nutritional and health benefits. They are Gluten and Sugar free, and like all Annique Products, Halaal. If you wish to lose weight this is a great product as its high in anit-oxidants, vitamin B-complex to speed up metabolism and increase energy levels. Most important they are easy and quick so a great healthy alternative. Comes in 6 variants – Chocolate, Strawberry, Café late, Vanilla and Chai. There is also a Choc-mint Variant.

I’ve also done some calculations for the Shakes and a Shake packet will cost you R259 for 500g. this offers you +- 30 meal replacements. So if you break it down each meal costs you R8.60, a great affordable meal. This can be added to Plain yoghurt, full cream milk, or rooibos tea and provides enough nourishment for a meal.
