			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Now that the new year is well and truly underway, you may be regretting setting those difficult new years resolutions! Statistically 88% of people fail at sticking to them! That&#8217;s why, this year, we have chosen a few slightly easier and more rewarding resolutions! (cheating I know, but we don&#8217;t like diets!) </p>
<p>* Keep up a proper skin care routine (we&#8217;re not getting any younger!)<br />
* Have an all year round healthy glow and avoid looking pasty!</p>
<p>So we&#8217;ve got all the creams for the skincare routine and for the healthy glow we will be using SunSpa&#8217;s Tan-in-a-Can dubbed &#8216;the 5 day foundation&#8217; by critics. Spray it on in the morning after moisturising and there is no need for foundation. It evens the skin tone and hides any blemishes whilst giving you a super glow and even tan. Perfect! So now resolutions to us are actually quite a treat!!</p>
<p>Get your can here &#8211;<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Now that summer is well and truly behind us, its time to shake up our skincare routines to adjust for the cooler months coming. Making small and subtle changes now will help you look and feel your best in the colder seasons.</p>
<p><strong>Skin</strong></p>
<p>As the winds pick up and the heating goes on, it is likely that your skin will be exposed to dryness and chapping. Always make sure to exfoliate once or twice a week depending on your natural skin type. This is important now, as our skin has been damaged over the summer by the sun, swimming, and the application of insect repellents and sunscreens. Buy a scrub over the counter or, if you like to do things more naturally, try exfoliating your skin with sugar to bring out its natural glow.</p>
<p>Remember to moisturise morning and evening especially after you have exfoliated. Use a facial mask one night a week for added softness.</p>
<p><strong>Sun Care</strong></p>
<p>Just because the sun isn’t as visible as it was in the summer, that doesn’t mean it’s not there. Be sure to wear an SPF at all times, under your moisturiser, even in winter, as the sun’s rays will penetrate the clouds and you need to be protected to prevent dry skin, wrinkles and sun damage.</p>
<p><strong>Hair</strong></p>
<p>This is an excellent time of year to trim away summer damage caused by the sun and swimming in salt or chlorinated water. A trim will keep your hair from looking dull and tired.</p>
<p>The summer humidity will also have dried out your hair. So treat your hair and scalp to a deep conditioning masque or oil to nourish and maintain your hair&#8217;s vibrancy.</p>
<p><strong>Nails</strong></p>
<p>Your nails are likely to become brittle as the weather changes. Keep them well filed to avoid snags that lead to ripping and breakage.</p>
<p>Moisturise your hands and nails during the day and before you go to bed, using a thick, moisturiser. If your skin is very dry, consider getting thin, cotton gloves to cover your hands at night to hold the moisturiser on.</p>
<p>If you paint your nails, avoid fast-drying polishes in the cooler months, as these can dry and crack your nails. Also use a cuticle oil to maintain soft clean looking skin and nails.</p>
<p><strong>Eyes</strong></p>
<p>As the weather gets colder, we cover our bodies in warm thick clothing, but the only area we don’t cover is the face. Use under-eye creams to reduce circles and puffiness, and moisturise the eye area with day and night eye creams to avoid dry patches.</p>
<p><strong>Body</strong></p>
<p>Just because we are now covering up our legs to keep warm that doesn’t mean we have to ignore the area. Continue to moisturise and exfoliate and it won’t be such a nightmare when we have to get them out again in spring!!</p>
<p>Keep up your summer glow with a light fake tan, this will keep you feeling good as well as looking radiant. Try SunSpa’s SunSmoothie spray tan which is our lightest and most natural looking colour but it is also moisturising and fades a lot slower and more evenly than most others on the market. Call 01923 892988 for a salon near you.</p>
<p><strong>Diet</strong></p>
<p>Keep yourself hydrated from the inside and it will really show on the outside. Having the heating on can dehydrate you considerably, so make sure you are drinking 2 litres of water a day, every day.</p>
<p>Try to add seasonal vegetables into your diet they often offer the vitamins and minerals that we lack at this time of year, plus they are easier to get hold of! Remember a healthy glow on the outside begins with health on the inside.</p>
<p>So whether we’re snuggling up in front of the fire or out facing the elements we have no excuse not to beautifully glow from head to toe!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We all know to protect our skin when we are out in the sun, but how many of us really think about protecting our eyes?</p>
<p>The sun’s rays are harmful to our eyes. Over time, the sun’s rays can seriously damage the eyes and surrounding skin, leading to vision loss and conditions from cataracts and macular degeneration to eye and eyelid cancers. However, some simple protective strategies practiced daily can help keep our eyes and the sensitive skin around them healthy throughout our lives.</p>
<p>Sunglasses can help protect the eyes from the sun and a good pair can completely block the sun’s harmful rays. So, whilst purchasing sunglasses, do remember their actual purpose and check the ability of the glass against UV factor.</p>
<p>Another quality test for sunglasses is their fit. The lenses should fit close enough to the face that only very little stray light can reach the eye from their sides, or from above or below, but not so close that the eyelashes smear the lenses. To protect against stray light from the sides, the lenses should fit close enough to the temples and have broad arms to protect from the sides.</p>
<p>Other important role of sunglasses is the style statement. A wide range of glasses are available everywhere.</p>
<p>Sunglasses have long been associated with celebrities and film actors and have been popular as a fashion accessory, especially on the beach. Make sure you get a pair that not only suit your face but protect you this summer.</p>
<h3>Round shaped faces suit oversized ombre glasses-</h3>
<p>Nicole Richie designed gradient lenses for her House of Harlow 1960 collection. Ombre shades (lighter lenses at the bottom) appear to narrow at the bottom, contouring a round face.</p>
<h3>Heart shaped faces suit cat&#8217;s-eyes glasses-</h3>
<p>With her wide cheekbones and narrow chin, Jennifer Lopez has a prime example of a heart shaped face. The curved frames of her cat’s-eyes glasses soften her sharp jaw-line.</p>
<h3>Oval shaped faces suit translucent wayfarers-</h3>
<p>Beyonce choses a pair translucent wayfarers, which balance her oval-shaped face without overpowering it, like heavy or dark frames</p>
<h3>Square shaped faces suit aviators-</h3>
<p>Prominent cheek bones and a strongly shaped jaw indicate a square shaped face. Angelina Jolie softens her angular features with classic, rounded aviators.</p>
<h3>Oblong shaped faces suit butterfly shaped glasses-</h3>
<p>Jessica Alba complements her elongated oval face with &#8217;70s-style butterfly frames. These draw the eye upwards, creating width at the temple.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>From caring for your existing customers to getting new business this list contains great tips and tricks to keep you at the top of your game.</p>
<p><strong>A – Aftercare</strong></p>
<p>Always make sure your client knows how to take care of their tan before they leave your capable hands. SunSpa’s Preperation and Maintenance leaflets have everything the client needs to know about caring for their tan so that it lasts longer and looks amazing, for the optimum length of time. Even a follow up telephone call to ask how it’s looking and to give tips on keeping the tan looking fresh will really make them smile and give you a chance to get valuable feedback. A longer lasting tan is a better tan and you clients will keep coming back for the fantastic service.</p>
<p><strong>B – Brand</strong></p>
<p>Choose your sunless tanning brand carefully and know what to look for in a product. SunSpa spray tanning solutions are natural with no alcohol, which makes them so much better for the skin. Look into what else the brand offers so you can maximise profits with a corresponding retail range.</p>
<p><strong>C – Cross Promotions</strong></p>
<p>Cross promotions or treatment packages are fantastic ways to get a client to try a new treatment or product that they wouldn’t normally choose. Put retail products together for a discounted price to effortlessly up sell. Or why not visit the hairdressers down the road and agree to offer a hair cut and spray tan at a discounted rate?</p>
<p><strong>D – Diversity</strong></p>
<p>Offering a range of tanning shades for all skin types is sure to double or even treble your clientele. SunSpa comes in SunSmoothie, a thicker solution for dryer or more mature skins. Natural Bronze, the most natural looking mid tan on the market. Or Deep Bronze, a deeper, more intense tan for darker skins. Make sure you ask your client what shade they are looking for and their skin type before their treatment begins. As a bit of a tanaholic myself I have been to some horrendous salons that just spray you and let you go, which believe me didn’t make me want to leave the house the next day, let alone go back for another!</p>
<p><strong>E – Education</strong></p>
<p>Teach your clients about the aftercare routine and retail top up products like Tan-in-a-Can during their treatment. This will comfort them and make them feel relaxed during their tan and also avoid the hard sell approach at the front desk. Chatting to a client and teaching them about tanning is the best way to build up trust and ultimately client loyalty.</p>
<p><strong>F – Fashion</strong></p>
<p>Take an interest in the latest fashion trends and advise clients on the colours that would look great on them with their new tan. This is sure to build up a friendship with the customer which will result in trust and comfort during the treatment. Also research the latest tanning trends, for example, highlighting certain areas of the body with SunSpa’s SunSparkle range which mimics the glossy look of catwalk models and will easily up sell to a second treatment.</p>
<p><strong>G – Glossy Mags</strong></p>
<p>Scour magazines for the latest looks and recreate them in your salon with your tanning and make up treatments. Have ‘Get the Look’ promotions combining different treatments to help your clients look like their favourite stars.</p>
<p><strong>H – Hear Your Clients</strong></p>
<p>Listen to the needs and wants of each client. Always do full consultations with each client to ensure you know exactly what they are looking for. Whether it’s a ‘two week holiday look’ or a ‘gentle glow’, give your client the treatment and result they want and they are sure to come back to you, hopefully with all their friends!</p>
<p><strong>I – Innovative Products</strong></p>
<p>Know your product company. Get all the latest equipment and products to be top of the game and to make sure your salon stands out from the rest. At SunSpa we are constantly updating our equipment and products to make sure we are always at a competitive advantage and so are the salons we supply.</p>
<p><strong>J – June And July</strong></p>
<p>Make the most of the summer months with promotions and offers that clients can’t resist. Take to the streets with leaflets, mail your client list with a voucher or just let each customer test the products on the shelf. Whatever you chose to do, June and July are the months that you will see your tanning sales soar!</p>
<p><strong>K – Know Your Products</strong></p>
<p>To sell your products you have to know your products. Make sure each therapist in your salon and even the hairdressers and reception staff are up to date with product training. Let the staff try the products for themselves, trust me when I say once you have tried SunSpa’s Tan-in-a-Can you’ll be telling anyone who’ll listen how fantastic it is!</p>
<p><strong>L – Leisure Centres</strong></p>
<p>Take your spray tan machine out of the salon. If you have a local leisure centre or gym talk the manager and arrange a set time each week to do spray tans for their customers. In many cases this can be the start of a very successful business venture.</p>
<p><strong>M – Male Clients</strong></p>
<p>Don’t forget about the men! Spray tanning for men is on the rise so use this to your advantage and advertise in the local barbers or even at the bar down the road. Explain that not only will they look bronzed and gorgeous but spray tanning machines can be used to accentuate muscles. With summer just around the corner there are great profits to be made here.</p>
<p><strong>N – Natural Ingredients</strong></p>
<p>We know it, you know it, but do your clients know it? SunSpa spray tans are natural looking and contain natural products which are kinder to the skin and aren’t drying like others you see on the market. Our SunSmoothie solution even moisturises the skin and is mild enough for use on clients with eczema and psoriasis!</p>
<p><strong>O – Offers</strong></p>
<p>Always have an offer on the go. People love a bargain and if something is cheaper then normal for a limited time period they are more likely to try something new that may well become a part of their monthly of even weekly routine!</p>
<p><strong>P – Plan Ahead</strong></p>
<p>Plan your promotions out for the next year, even get literature printed out for all your offers in one go, this could save you money and will also help you to be prepared. You never know when you may get a sudden rush of business and not be able to keep up with your monthly promotions, especially when the offers are too good to resist! Tie in certain events and seasons with your promotions, for example, festivals, the wedding season, Christmas and holiday months.</p>
<p><strong>Q – Quality</strong></p>
<p>Working with quality brands such as SunSpa won’t go unnoticed by your clients or their friends for that matter, word of mouth is the best form of advertising.</p>
<p><strong>R – Recommendations</strong></p>
<p>Form alliances with other local businesses and offer to recommend their business to your clients if they do the same for you. Pick your alliances carefully so that you aren’t stepping on each others toes but so that your customers both have the same interests.</p>
<p><strong>S – Show Off</strong></p>
<p>Display your posters and leaflets in the waiting areas as well as in the windows of the salon. All SunSpa’s promotional material is free of charge, so stock up today to ensure your clients know about the treatments you have on offer.</p>
<p><strong>T – Target Markets</strong></p>
<p>Understand your target markets. With tanning, the market is wide, therefore you should be prepared with marketing material for different occasions and age groups. Promote SunSmoothie to your more mature clients and brides to be, for a very natural, long lasting glow that looks great even on dryer skins. Tell younger clients and serial tanners about Deep bronze and promote natural bronze as a pre holiday glow. Have specific leaflets and posters so people feel that even they can look fantastic with a tan.</p>
<p><strong>U – Understanding Client Needs</strong></p>
<p>Whether your client is nervous about stripping off or is just rushed for time, be aware of the individual needs of each client and tailor the treatment and your care around them. This will guarantee their return.</p>
<p><strong>V – Visual Merchandising</strong></p>
<p>Encourage sales by making sure you have a clean and well lit retail stand, no more than four paces from the door and with nothing blocking access to it. You want to make it as easy as possible for your clients to get to the products. Place the products you really want to push at eye level and put cheaper products on the front desk as people are more likely to impulse buy whilst they wait.</p>
<p><strong>W – Wear Your Own Products</strong></p>
<p>Wear your tan with pride, and give your staff a tan too. (I guarantee they will thank you for it!) Get different members of staff to wear each shades so that clients can see the results for themselves. This works really well in helping them choose the shade they prefer.</p>
<p><strong>X – eXcite Your Clients</strong></p>
<p>Get your customers to try the products at the front desk or offer a ‘Free Arm and Face Tan’ to a select few existing customers. This is sure to get them excited about a product and book in or buy the retail product, plus they will feel like you are spoiling them.</p>
<p><strong>Y – Young Clients</strong></p>
<p>Now that the law has changed and it is illegal to use a sun bed underage, there is a huge opening in the market for spray tanning. Why not visit a local youth club, dance or theatre group and offer them discounted tans?</p>
<p><strong>Z – Zap Out The Competition</strong></p>
<p>Make sure you are one step ahead of the competition at all times by constantly checking their prices, or even sending your therapists in for treatments to get new ideas! Cheeky I know, but just don’t get caught!</p>
