Pamper me Beautiful – WWC Event at DestinationSkin

Friday, May 22nd, 2009

DestinationSkin, LondonThe Wahanda Wellness Club thought it was time to indulge in a spot of free pampering, so we happily headed on down to the DestinationSkin Clinic at London’s Westfield shopping centre to get  our free skin consultation and facial worth £95.

On arrival, guests received a warm welcome, wonderful smiling faces as well as champagne, strawberries, pretty little cup cakes and a tray full of other tempting goodies. We were then seated in the reception area where we were asked to fill in a health form and questionnaire, before being whisked away by one of the friendly members of staff for our consultation. Based on the questionnaire each guest was given the chance to discuss with the consultant about their skin concerns and treatments they would be interested knowing more about.

Following the consultation, guests were placed before a machine for a skin analysis using the latest skin imaging system to detect the level of hydration, congestion, blood distribution and sun damage that the skin may have.

Based on the skin analysis, guests were then treated to a facial tailored to suit their skin type and were taken to a private treatment room. There are five treatment rooms, all with a clean, airy and contemporary feel to it.

The facial treatment consisted of a gentle scrub to remove dead skin cells and open pores, followed by a fruit acid exfoliation which was left on for about 5 minutes and lastly a hydrating moisturiser was massaged over the face and neck for a soft and supple finish.

Guests were then given the opportunity to sample the new cellulite busting machine, known as SmoothShapes. Wahanda reviewer Amily was one of the first lucky guests to try SmoothShapes saying:

“The new machine had only been unwrapped at the store earlier that day, and had come straight in from the USA. The treatment felt like a hoover sucking hard on the problem areas, but was not painful at all, and after a while became rather therapeutic!”

Before heading off home, the staff were more than happy to discuss any further treatments that guests may have wanted including laser hair removal, permanent make up and other facial treatments. They were also offering a great discount of 20% off any treatment that was booked that day, so lucky you can indulge in yet another pamper session.DestinationSkin, London

All guests were also given the chance to win a £100 Wahanda voucher, simply by writing a review of their treatment on Wahanda.

If you didn’t make this event, don’t worry. You can still be involved, find out how you can be one of the first to be invited to all future Wellness Events.

An eventful evening at Beautcamp Pilates

Thursday, March 19th, 2009

Beautcamp PilatesThe second of Wahanda’s successful Wellness Club events kicked off on Wednesday with an hour long complimentary session at Beautcamp Pilates in West London. A little more active than our previous event, guests were treated to a session with instructor Aaron who showed them why Beautcamp Pilates has become such a phenomenon after it’s popularity in LA.

Pilates

Everyone worked up a good sweat and were impressed by how energetic the exercises were. The reviews have already started to come in to thank Beautcamp and Wahanda for such a rewarding class. In her review, Judy-J gave the session five out of five, saying:

“Aaron was really helpful and came round for each position to make sure we were doing it correctly. I wasn’t expecting it to be such a good workout as I thought it would be more about stretching than cardio, but it was a good measure of both and I felt thoroughly worked out afterwards!”

WinnerBefore everyone scooted off to get freshly showered, Aaron was asked to select someone at random to win a prize of five free sessions at Beautcamp Pilates and the lucky winner of the night was Sophie, who can use her prize at either the West London or City branch- so there’s no excuses! All guests were also given the chance to win a £50 Wahanda voucher, simply by writing a review of Beautcamp Pilates on Wahanda.
