If you’re on the hunt for salons and spas that offer a splendid pampering experience without breaking the bank, check out these spots for your beauty and wellness needs.
Déesse
Derived from the French word “goddess,” Déesse is focused on helping their customers achieve holistic wellness—mind, body, and spirit. Their wide selection of services “not only nurtures the body, but also feeds the soul” by making their clients “feel good and confident in their skin.”
Do you have sensitive skin? Go for the Deesse Rehydrate Facial (P1,290), which is designed to make your dry skin feel soft and supple not too long after your session.
If you’re living an active lifestyle, their Sports Pedicure is highly recommended. Priced at P1,500, the treatment makes use of cold and hot procedures “to promote blood circulation and ease sore muscles.” Couple it with some nail extensions and gel manicure (P2,000) to complete your experience.
Déesse is located at Unit 7 Kingspoint Bldg., 69 Nicanor Roxas St., Banawe, Quezon City
Skinhouse Laser
Skinhouse Laser is known for its advanced medical aesthetics services, including non-invasive cosmetic procedures for the face and body. While they’re much-loved for their microblading service and Ultherapy, they also stand out for their beautifying facial treatments.
A must-try is the Skinhouse Oxygeneo+ (P5,000), which helps increase moisture, tighten pores, reduce puffiness, and boost active ingredients through natural oxygen molecules harnessed by a mix of Tripollar RF, Oxygeneo, and Ultrasound for effective absorption into the skin. It is recommended to have this treatment done once a month to achieve best results.
Skinhouse Laser is located in Quezon City, Pasig, and Bonifacio Global City
Skin Buffet
Skin Buffet is a good option, especially for those who have sensitive skin as they have a “Formulate Your Own Beauty” offering—a “premium line of personalized facials where you can get an easy understanding of your own skin type and skin condition with the use of a skin analyzer.”
To make sure you won’t have skin allergy, reaction, or problems during facial treatments, the beauty brand allows you to pick your own toner, mask, cream, moisturizer, among others with the belief that “skincare is personal.” The price would depend on your treatment and products of choice.
Skin Buffet is located at 3/F Unit 301A Hollywood Square Bldg., 33 West Avenue, Quezon City
Vivere Salon
Don’t forget about your hair. Aside from the usual hairstyling, color, and precision cut, Vivere Salon also offers hair treatments that could let your tresses breathe. Among them are anti-aging hair treatment (P3,500), which “takes a decade off your hair age,” as well as scalp energizing (P1,700), scalp purifying (P1,700), Keralite (P900), and the D2 dual repair treatment (P1,500) that “repairs hair from inside-out for a glow that shines from within.”
There are also smoothening treatments such as beauty service (P2,800) and the Lakme Aura Hyaluroplasty. Priced at P5,000, the latter “optimizes hair health by repairing the fiber with premium hyaluronic acid for silky, smooth, and soft hair.”
