As many of you know I have been busy with spa services and have been excited to add a little more flash and pizzazz to retail at garrison girl. This post is all about shopping, enjoying a night with girlfriends sharing in some laughs and possibly making a spectacle of yourself with all the excitement involving jewels, purses, skin care  and facial demos!

Here are the details:

* The host of the party receives $100 of jewelry and a $75 garrison girl gift card (redeemed for spa treatments only).

* Jewelry, purses, and pashmina scarves will be displayed for your friends to sort and look through and purchase directly at the party.

Here are a few details about what you will find new at Garrison Girl

* Hours – M-F I am now able to fill in more daytime appt’s. Evening and weekend appt’s are by request and I continue to do my best to accommodate your needs.

* Hey! A New Face – Referral Program – Word of mouth is proven to be a fantastic way of increasing new customers through a business. Hey! A New Face is designed to introduce your family or friends to garrison girl with savings for you! Each time your name is mentioned will result in garrison girl rewards for you to spa with! It will be tracked in increments of $5 rewards. Send me one new customer and receive $5, send me two new customers and receive $10 etc. Encourage your friends to mention where they heard about garrison girl and I will track how often your name is mentioned.

* Jewelry – I spent a few days with a close friend of mine over the summer. She supplies a variety of boutique clothing stores with a wide selection of jewelry. She travels to NYC a few times a year and purchases various styles of jewelry for these customers. She has seen first hand how much we all love a piece of jewelry and thought it would be a nice fit in my spa space. I have had a nice selection of jewelry for two weeks now and let me tell you it is turning out to be a nice little addition for the customers coming through. Feel free to come take a peek even if you don’t have a spa treatment booked.

One look that was great was a smokey bronze eye using the tribeca triad shadow set with a coal liner to fill in the lash line. A dab of highlight on the inner corner of the eye and some high definition black mascara was just that ’smokin’ on the eye! I also really liked the combination of smudgey coal eyeliner applied heavy at the upper lash line with the darker green shade found in the jungle triad shadow set applied directly over top of the coal and then to pop some highlight I used the pale shimmered yellow just in the center of the upper lash line and then a generous application of high definition black mascara! It was beautiful!

No need to complicate your daily routine with makeup just understanding what works for you, what feels comfortable, colors that compliment and using a product that is designed to keep your beauty routine simple and easy were key discussions at the clothing swap party last night! Lots of fun and chiiki munki makeup proved to be a great fit for the gang of girls.

Skoah is a personal skin care company based in the trendy shopping district of Yaletown in the heart of Vancouver. They create quality skin care products and sell them exclusively at their Skoah locations, online and at a few select retailers such as Garrison Girl. Skoah is leading the way in creativity and innovation in the skin care industry.

What’s Skoah’s personal training for your skin?
Personal training for your skin is not a guilty pleasure,  sporadic indulgence, or ‘beauty treatment.’ Just like your body, your skin needs regular workouts to stay healthy and look its best. Skoah creates simple, powerful skin care products which blend the best of nature with modern science. You eat right, you exercise, you “skoah” for your skin. ???Skoah’s philosophy?? We take our skin care seriously, but believe a smile is the best ‘look’ of all. We want our customers to feel great from the skin in.

What’s Garrison Girl’s relationship with Skoah?
Over the past five years I have worked with Skoah as a “skin care trainer” at their original location in Yaletown and at their newest location in Calgary. I have trained exclusively with the Skoah product team and was on hand for the launch of Skoah’s skin care line and their latest venture into the world of Chiki Munki makeup. At Garrison Girl we “live and breath” Skoah and are experts in ‘training you’ into better skin.

A variation with everything at this time of year usually causes the skin to lack lustre, feel a little more dry/dehydrated and even causes us and our skin to feel tired!  Mix in the christmas menu, the over indulging of all kinds of food and drinks and oh boy your skin only needs one thing and that is a good cleanse!!  To keep your skin looking ‘new’ you will be given some exfoliating advice with skoah’s aha mask or one of there many products to follow at home!

Book in your Garrison Girl Facial and save $10. Regular price $75.

Valid now until January 16th.
