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.
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:
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.

Why is our course so popular?
This is because the certification we give you allows a student to work with which ever particular brand they choose to purchase later and use with their clients.
Importantly as we teach effective and safe methods with products our tutors love to use but do not insist on the students who attend to have to continue with any one given brand afterwards to gain insurance and use what they have learned with us professionally.
This then allows students to make their own choice of brand and also means that they are not tied by any particular brand when it comes to their insurance, so should they ever have a problem and if a claim is made and they have changed brand, they would still be covered (please check this with your insurance provider) giving you a lot more flexibility.
This also means you are not tied into buying brands from us which is very restrictive which only makes the school you are buying them from money but does not benefit you. This means the certificate you gain with us gives you the freedom to use what ever brand you wish, the tutors can guide you to good products but ultimately it is your choice!
