With the warmer months finally upon us, it is time to refresh your beauty routine. Summer calls for a shift from heavy winter layers to lightweight, luminous, and effortlessly beautiful looks. Whether you are prepping for a beach escape, a sunny city break, or simply enjoying the Hampshire sunshine, we have put together the ultimate summer beauty edit to keep you glowing all season long.
Step into your personal sanctuary at Ana’s Beauty Parlour in Basingstoke—here are our top tips and expert treatments for a flawless summer.
1. Secure That Sun-Kissed Glow (Safely!) A radiant summer complexion starts with an immaculate canvas. Before reaching for the SPF and bronzer, it is essential to deeply cleanse, exfoliate, and hydrate to clear away the last remnants of winter dullness.
The Parlour Tip: Ditch the heavy foundations and let your natural skin shine. To achieve a flawless, breathable base, treat yourself to our signature Hydrafacial. It deeply purifies and floods the skin with hydration, leaving you with an instant, dewy glow. For those looking to smooth out texture and boost collagen before a big holiday, our Microneedling treatments are the perfect way to revitalise your complexion from the inside out. Remember, healthy skin is always in season!
2. Effortless, Pool-Proof Eyes Summer heat, humidity, and swimming pools are the ultimate enemies of mascara and brow pencil. This season, the trend is all about the 'I woke up like this' aesthetic—giving you more time to relax and less time spent in front of the mirror.
The Parlour Tip: Swap the daily makeup struggle for our Korean Lash Lift and expert Brow Lamination. These treatments beautifully frame your features and provide stunning, sweat-proof definition that lasts for weeks. Want to take the zero-maintenance look a step further? Our Semi-Permanent Makeup (PMU) services—including delicate powder brows and lip blush—ensure you stay flawlessly tinted from the sun lounger to the sunset bar.
3. Chip-Free, High-Gloss Summer Nails Nothing says summer quite like a fresh, vibrant manicure. Whether you prefer a timeless neutral, a coastal pastel, or a bright pop of colour, your nails need to withstand the rigours of travel, sand, and seawater.
The Parlour Tip: Standard polish simply will not cut it for a two-week holiday. Opt for our Luxury Gel or Builder Gel (BIAB) manicures and pedicures. BIAB provides incredible strength and a durable, chip-free finish that protects your natural nails while you are busy enjoying your summer adventures.
4. Body Confidence and Wellness Summer is about feeling completely confident and comfortable in your own skin. Sometimes, a little targeted TLC is all you need to feel your absolute best before slipping into your swimwear.
The Parlour Tip: Alongside keeping hydrated and nourishing your skin at home with natural, cruelty-free body moisturisers, our bespoke Body Contouring and Fat Dissolving treatments are here to complement your healthy lifestyle. They are specifically designed to boost your physical confidence with zero downtime, meaning you can walk out of the salon ready for the beach.
