It's easy to get swept away by the holiday rush; completing your shopping, finishing your deadlines, and planning your parties (not to mention your outfits) take a toll on your skin, body, and overall well-being. So, it's important to slow down once in a while and appreciate simple moments, such as those spent bonding with friends or just savoring some alone time.
While you're at it, why don't you catch up on the lives of your girlfriends and get some much-needed R&R while you're pampered head to toe at the newly-renovated salon that specializes in personal and group services: Beauty & Butter in SM Megamall.
Enjoy A Girls' Day Out
A mall may not seem like the ideal place to have a relaxing party, but this cozy salon is a welcome escape from the noise of the shopping centers. The pop art-inspired venue is a great place to meet up with at least five of your friends for a custom Beauty & Butter Spa Party!
For as low as P500 per person, you get personalized digital party invites, souvenirs, iced tea for guests, use of in-store audio and video equipment, and exclusive use of in-store iPads. The attendants (nicknamed "buttercups") will recommend catering options if you want additional refreshments. And, if you spend a minimum of P10,000, you can even make like VIPs and close off the store for your private party!
Discover Unique Nail Services
Nail polish junkies who are too busy to maintain their manicures will love the long-lasting finish provided by gel nail polish. This advanced formula is odorless, lightweight, and less prone to chips, cracks, or fading. It's a cool option for you or your busy pal who's always tied up at work and rarely has time to visit the salon, because the polish can be kept on for two weeks up to a month without staining nails--or getting ruined!
When you get tired of the color, just go back to the salon and have a Buttercup gently remove them. (Warning: You can't do this on your own, it requires a special acetone!) The standard gel polish service (using Jennifer Lynn products) costs P590 per person, while the premium Orly GelFX Polish service costs P1,200.
If you want something fancier yet easier to remove, check out the 40 nail art sticker designs they have in the salon!
Experience Vegan Body Care
You'll get swept up in the vegan craze when you try out their collection of services using imported SpaRitual products. It's the only brand to offer vegan, paraben-free, and organic treatments for the hands, body, and feet.
Lay back and take in the aromatic scents of essential oils while you enjoy the formaldehyde-free Organic Manicure & Pedicure (P700), 12-step vegan Foot Spa with free pedicure (P800), and private chakra-stimulating Body Scrubs (P999, only in SM Megamall branch). Try these services alone or with friends--you can even purchase some of the products so you can throw a fun DIY spa party at home!
Rejuvenate Your Skin
Leave the party looking more radiant than ever when you try out one of their Royal Highness Facial Treatments, which use iSkin New York products that stimulate cell growth, improve circulation, and rebuild collagen.
There are many options for the different girls in your group: Baby Face (P750) for those with sensitive skin, You Glow Girl (P750) for those who want whitening, Blemish Enemy (P750) for those with acne-prone skin, Tight and Bright (P750) for those with anti-aging concerns, and Fully Loaded (P999) for those who want complete care--from the face to the decolletage area.
Launch the gallery to see the new services you can enjoy alone or with your girlfriends at Beauty & Butter Megamall!
