Frequently Asked Questions
Ask the Buty Salon Spa Expert answers your questions
Question Do you offer a service known as ‘Aroma Detox Envelopment’? I saw something about it on the news last night and it sounds fabulous!
ANSWER: Indeed we do! We offer a WRAP THAT GETS RID OF FAT! Of course it doesn’t get rid of fat immediately! This treatment combines a rich sea algae mineral mask for instant toning & lymph drainage whilst being wrapped in warm towels & a heated blanket simultaneously slims, re-mineralizes, relaxes & hydrates the body. If you're looking for a quick 2-3 pound dip, this type of wrap will temporarily do. If you're looking, however, to actually burn off some blub we recommend swimming for the seaweed. Do that and you'll get rid of some fat... click here for ‘Aroma Detox Envelopment’
Question: What can I do to diminish my cellulite?
ANSWER: Everyone is looking for a fast-fix for streamlining and slimming her thighs, however Cellulite is an age-old problem that affects women of all ages, it can cling on even after you've dropped the final five, and doesn't always affect those who are packing a few extra pounds (those seemingly perfect super-skinny types may be just as prone to pocketing and lumpy legs as you are!). It is thought to be the result of a combination of fat, excess water, and wastes (or toxins) that are trapped under the skin. Follow five of these anti-flab cellulite-busting bullet points, and hope for the firmer:
- Eat fruits and juices in the morning,
- Drink 6-8 glasses of water daily,
- Avoid fried and fat-loaded foods,
- Avoid caffeine, carbonated drinks, and hard liquor
- Avoid salt, red meats, and hi-fat dairy products,
- Rub thighs with rosemary, peppermint, juniper and/or thyme oil for increased circulation and metabolism,
- Massage thighs from the outermost problem area toward the heart - stimulate lymphatic drainage by dry brushing from knees toward inner thighs
- Take regular seaweed baths (to help release trapped intracellular toxins),
- Knead and massage problem areas
- Exercise after meals, especially in the evening
- Book a once-a-week series of six spa treatments.

Question: I want to prepare my body for summer in advance! For the past couple of years I have been trying to get a good tan, it never worked. I tanned on tanning beds, in the beautiful sun, I tried everything and my body still won't tan. I do get a little colour, but not enough to satisfy me. What should I do?
ANSWER: Dearest, Forget about tanning. It's not a necessity. Why worry? In the real scheme of things, tanning: 1) Increases the rate at which your skin loses elastin and collagen, increasing the SP (sagging potential) of your otherwise firm and fabulous skin. 2) Stimulates the abnormal production of melanin, causing ghastly liver-looking spots, mottled complexion, and muddiness. Does anyone welcome this tone or texture? I think not. You're not less of 'a man' (or a woman, for that matter) because you can't tan. Think of the millions of more-interesting things that you could be doing with your time (getting a Buty Salon G5 massage, shopping for jeans, spritzing on fabulous perfumes, lunching slowly over a nice glass of anti-oxidant rich red wine) than tanning. They just require a little planning. Or you can try our Decleor Self Tan & look like Giselle Bundchen? Decleor Self Tan
The most enjoyable way to achieve a top to toe healthy glow without the sun. Exfoliation ensures a perfectly smooth skin followed by the relaxing application of Autobronzant Lumiere. The results are totally natural, long lasting and fade gradually. Perfect to brighten a winter complexion or top up an existing tan.
Question: I've heard that brushing the skin has beauty benefits. Is this true?
ANSWER Regular brushing of your skin not only increases
surface circulation, it stimulates elimination of cellular waste, softens
and smoothes. You can either dry-brush your skin, or brush over an application
of oil (try a few drops of an aromatherapy, spray-on dry or hydrating body
oil). If your goal is to launch an all-points anti-cellulite attack, your
best brush stroking order is as follows: Begin at your feet and brush upward
toward your heart, using enough pressure to stimulate circulation, but not
enough to 'bruise' you. Brush in circles around your knees, and at the top
and inner areas of your thighs. Circle your brush around your abdominal wall,
in the direction of your intestines (from the lower right side, move up and
across above your belly-button, then down along the left side). Then circle
around your breast and brush upward from your shoulder joint. From the base
of your neck, stroke downward to the heart. Lastly, if you can reach your
back (try bending over to brush behind), brush up and down along your spine.
