When you come in to Ella Bache for a facial you are simultaneously trusting the same treatments and products used by millions of women across Australia and Europe for the the last 80 years and you are asking us to tailor the treatment to you, to where your skin is right now and what it needs. Sometimes life gets busy, we neglect those things that we know make a difference and we fail to make time for ourselves. A facial at any time is a great way to stop and to care for ourselves. And it allows you to check in with your therapist about your at home care, to make sure it is the best for you.

Mother's Day is just around the corner, and wherever we or our mothers are in life, it is a good reminder that we all enjoy a little mothering. Being wrapped in a warm towel, tucked under a heavy doona, gently cleansed and moisturised - it's the perfect nurturing moment. We would love to take care of you this Mother's Day. If you or anyone you know could use some nurturing we would love to see you. And we have four special deals running from now until Mother's Day - they combine relaxing massage and facial procedures with therapeutic products and expert care.

🍁In our facials we Start with a complimentary skin care analysis. We will look at your skin under different diagnostic lights. This allows us to tailor the products we take care of your skin’s barrier by using a cleanser with the right ph for skin. This is so important for the overall health and integrity of all skin.

🍁We exfoliate your skin - this does a few things. It removes the dead cells that are hanging on to the outer layer of your skin. This allows the serums and moisturisers that we are going to use to get to your growing skin and do their work. Different forms of exfoliation will help with different skin concerns. For example microdermabrasion can help to refine pores and get rid of black heads. It can help resurface larger pores, wrinkles and acne scarring. Our salon only AHA resurfacing peel can stimulate your skin to make more hyaluronic acid for the next month, thus helping the skin to retain more moisture. Our fruit enzyme is a fantastic gentle exfoliant that works for everyone, even those with active acne or rosacea.

🍁We use massage and pressure points to improve your blood flow and lymphatic drainage. This helps to reduce puffiness around the eyes and improve skin health and brightness.We use a mask on your skin to target your specific skin concerns. The mask for oily skin is both cooling and gently oil absorbing to reduce redness, inflammation and oil. Then there is the prebiotic mask for sensitive skins which is deeply balancing and anti inflammatory. We have masks that are deeply hydrating, deeply nourishing and masks that tarket eyes, neck and decolletage - improving hydration and firmness.

🍁We have a range of serums that we can use during this massage to target a variety of skin concerns. We have serums that are purifying and oil balancing, serums that help inhibit the pigmentation that is sometimes activated by sun exposure. 

🍁We have serums that are deeply hydrating and moisturising. And our skin loves moisture. Healthy skin has a very high water content.  

🍁We lock in these fantastic serums with not just a moisturiser, but a moisture protective. These are what made Madame Ella Bache the company’s founding skin care chemist famous back in the day. And if you have found your perfect match in our moisture protectives you will know that she is rightly famous. A good moisturiser doesn’t just make you feel good when you put it on, it protects your skin for hours by locking the moisture into your skin. This means that the dry air around you doesn’t dry your skin out. 

We have a range of different weights of moisture protectives from ones that balance oily sensitive skins to ones that are light weight but protective for normal skins right through to a range of rich, deeply emollient creams.    

And finally we apply spf, either foundation or clear, to protect your freshly exfoliated and nourished skin.

You will leave glowing, relaxed and with recommendations for the best skin care for you to use at home.
