ESSENTIAL INFORMATION

This page includes some essential information that you need to know before booking your treatments at PURE or PURE Spa to get the most out of your beauty treatments and spa therapies.

Tanning Treatments

  • You should leave at least 24 hours between any hair removal treatments (including shaving at home!) and a tanning treatment.  This is because your skin is usually more sensitive after hair removal, which can affect the success of your tanning treatments.
  • Do not wear deodorant or perfume when visiting for a tanning treatment as there is a small risk that these products may react with the tan.
  • The tan lotion needs to be on your skin for at least ten hours before showing off to allow the tan to soak into your skin and achieve the best results.
  • Be careful when washing your hands just after having the tan so that you don’t rub it off!

Pedicure Treatments

  • Please either bring or wear open toed shoes when visiting for a pedicure to minimise the risk of smudging your toe polish.
  • For best results, give yourself 20 minutes after your pedicure treatment to sit, relax and let your toe polish touch dry before leaving the salon.

Manicure Treatments

  • For best results allow yourself 10 – 15 minutes after your manicure appointment to allow your polish to dry and minimise any risk of smudging.
  • For the gel polish or permanent French treatments, you need to have some length on your nails before coming in as you need to have some nail tip so that the gel can be applied correctly and prevent lifting or the gel.
  • If you would like the best results from the permanent polish, we would recommend having a PURE Manicure with cuticle treatment a week or two before the treatment so that your nails are in tip top condition.  This will ensure that your polish will last as long as possible.

Massage Treatments

  • For best results we recommend drinking plenty of water after your massage treatment to flush any toxins from your system.
  • You will feel very relaxed after a massage treatment, so take it easy and don’t do anything too strenuous!
  • We advise not to consume alcohol for at least 24 hours after a massage treatment, especially a spa massage as the release of toxins may make you feel a little more giddy than usual.

Waxing Treatments

  • For best results, we advise leaving your hair to grow for at least 3 – 4 weeks before visiting for a waxing treatment so that the hairs are long enough to be removed effectively.
  • Most people experience some redness of the skin after a waxing treatment.  This normally lasts anything from one to twenty four hours, depending on the individual.
  • As your skin is sensitive after waxing treatments, you should avoid swimming, using sunbeds, wearing deodorant (for underarm waxing) for at least twenty four hours after your treatment. 
  • To soothe your skin after waxing, use the Australian Bodycare Tea Tree Hand & Body Lotion or Savalon.
  • For best results with your treatment, use a body scrub to exfoliate the area to be waxed the day prior to your visit, and scrub three times a week in the shower to keep your skin in tip top condition.
  • See our FAQ page for any questions on Brazilian and Hollywood bikini waxing.
