We will need proof of your qualification for the facial course you have attended, it can be with us or any other school but we do NOT accept an online facial course.

History of gold:

GOLD – one of the world’s most valued minerals, highly sought after with a resistance to tarnish and the bright shimmering tones of yellows and reds.  Culturally, gold is usually associated with wealth, happiness, success, love, divinity, good luck/fortune, and power.

Why choose the GW Radiance Gold Glow Facial Course:

Gold has a brightening effect on the skin, boosts radiance and luminosity, it is a powerful antioxidant & has healing properties.  It is anti-inflammatory and calming on sensitive skins.  It also improves circulation, rejuvenates and stimulates the regeneration of skin cells.

A gold facial is perfect for any skin type:

• It is anti-aging due to the antioxidant effects, plus anti-wrinkle/firming, energising and rejuvenation effects.
• It is good for problematic skin (prone to spots) due to the healing properties of the gold.
• Safe to use on sensitive skins due to the anti-inflammatory, calming and healing effects.
• Revitalises dry/dull skin as it brightens and increases cellular turnover and microcirculation.

---

What makes this treatment different from the Beauty Facial Course?

Gold (and especially the 24k gold leaf used within this facial) does not come cheaply.  Gold is considered one of the most sought-after minerals in the world.  With the added benefits and effects this has on the skin it is no wonder clients love having this treatment.   The benefits and effects of this treatment will last for a couple of days, hence why it is a perfect pre-occasion or pre-party treatment.  Because the GW Radiance Gold Glow Facial is full of opulence, you can give it a price tag to match.

During this course we build on your existing knowledge and really home in on your therapy skills to up your game during the consultation process, treatment and homecare/aftercare procedure, propelling your skills to the next level with tried and tested techniques you can use not just with this treatment but with ALL the treatments that you offer within your business.
