Chocolate Wax

Key Benefits:

Using chocolate wax for hair removal offers a host of skin- and comfort-friendly advantages:

  • Natural soothing ingredients
    Cocoa butter and plant oils help calm skin, reducing redness and inflammation during and after waxing

  • Gentle grip for less pain
    The natural wax formulation adheres to hairs without over-gripping the skin, making removal feel gentler

  • Anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits
    Cocoa polyphenols in the wax help protect and repair skin from oxidative stress

  • Moisturising action
    Unlike strip wax alone, chocolate wax leaves a thin layer of hydrating oils on the skin, preventing dryness

  • Minimises bruising and irritation
    The emollient qualities of cocoa oil cushion the skin, lowering the chance of bumps or marks

  • Ideal for sensitive skin and delicate areas
    A softer, plant-based wax is less likely to trigger redness or discomfort in sensitive zones

  • Enhances skin softness and glow
    Post-wax residue of cocoa butter and natural oils leaves skin feeling smooth and radiant

  • Slower hair regrowth
    Thorough removal at the root encourages finer, sparser regrowth over time

By combining effective hair removal with the skincare benefits of cocoa, chocolate wax delivers a more comfortable, nourishing waxing experience.

Cold-Pressed Aromatherapy Oils

Key Benefits:

  • Preserves Nutrients: Retains vitamins, antioxidants and essential fatty acids (like vitamin E and linoleic acid) to nourish and protect the skin barrier

  • Superior Absorption: Lightweight, unrefined oils penetrate deeply for enhanced hydration and delivery of active compounds

  • Anti-Inflammatory & Healing: Carrier oils such as jojoba and sweet almond soothe inflammation, support tissue repair and calm sensitised skin

  • Potent Aromatherapy Effects: Pure essential oils release therapeutic aromas that reduce stress, uplift mood and improve mental clarity

  • Improves Circulation & Muscle Relaxation: Combines gentle friction with bioactive oil constituents to dilate blood vessels, ease tension and boost lymphatic drainage

  • Antioxidant Protection: Natural antioxidants neutralise free radicals, helping to prevent premature ageing and maintain a healthy glow

  • Non-Comedogenic & Gentle: Unrefined carrier oils are less likely to clog pores or irritate, making them ideal for sensitive or problematic skin

  • Balances Skin’s Oils: Regulates sebum production to hydrate dry areas without greasiness, leaving skin supple and balanced

We do not use blades for hard skin removal in any of our Pedicure

Key Benefits:

  • Minimised Risk of Injury: Eliminates cuts, nicks and gouges that can occur with blades

  • Reduced Infection Chance: No accidental breaches of the skin barrier, lowering the risk of bacterial or fungal infections

  • Preserves Skin Integrity: Gentle abrasion methods maintain the natural moisture barrier and prevent over-thinning

  • Safer for Sensitive Conditions: Ideal for diabetics or those with poor circulation, who are at higher risk from blade use

  • More Comfortable Experience: Non-invasive techniques cause less pain and post-treatment sensitivity

  • Controlled Exfoliation: Allows gradual, even removal of calluses and corns without going too deep

  • Promotes Natural Healing: Encourages healthy cell turnover and stronger skin regeneration

Spa Liners

Key Benefits:

  • Enhanced Hygiene: Creates a clean barrier between the foot spa basin and each client’s skin, preventing cross-contamination

  • Infection Control: Single-use liners eliminate the risk of bacteria, fungi or viruses lingering in the basin

  • Quick Turnaround: Speeds up room turnover—simply remove and replace the liner rather than scrubbing and disinfecting the tub

  • Equipment Protection: Shields the spa basin from product buildup, oils and residue, extending the life of your equipment

At Beauty and Pampering we never use sharp blades or razors for hard-skin removal, because your safety and comfort are our top priorities. Instead, we rely on professional-grade foot files, gentle exfoliating scrubs and film-wrap treatments that allow us to soften and lift calluses without ever breaching the skin’s natural barrier. This approach not only minimises any risk of cuts, infections or post-treatment sensitivity, but also ensures a consistently smooth finish every time. Our therapists are fully trained in clinical foot care protocols and use only sterilised, single-use instruments and disposable liners, so you can relax knowing you’re in expert hands. By choosing non-invasive methods, we protect the integrity of your skin, support healthy cell regeneration and deliver lasting results that uphold the highest standards of hygiene and professionalism.
