At Scin, Notting Hill, Waxing is increasingly in demand. Our clients often combine their regular Waxing treatments like eyebrow shaping, underarm waxing, leg waxing, arm waxing, and ofcourse bikini waxing - including brazilian or hollywood Waxing with a lovely relaxing Facial or luxury Pedicure.  At Scin, Notting Hill, we use Strip Wax and Hot Wax.

 

Scin, Notting Hill also stocks Dermalogica and performs a variety of Dermalogica facials.  The most popular Dermalogica Facial at Scin, Notting Hill is the deep cleansing Customised Standard Facial.  This Dermalogica Facial includes a double cleanse, exfoliation, steam and extraction, mask, massage and moisturise.  For extra relaxation add a 30 minute back massage to this facial and have the very popular Scin De-stress Facial.

 

At Scin, Notting Hill Manicures and Pedicures are incredibly popular.  If you come to Scin Notting Hill you will often walk into a Boutique filled with clients sat around our curvy white sofa having a Manicure or Pedicure and people watching out of the huge windows.  Sometimes it is serene and relaxed and sometimes everyone is chatting and laughing at eachothers stories.  Whatever the mood, it is always a welcoming and friendly environment and you can be sure that you will have a really good Manicure or Pedicure at Scin.  Scin, Notting Hill uses OPI nail polish in all its Manicures and Pedicures.

 

At Scin, Notting Hill we use a brand called Bali Sun in our Spray Tanning.  This treatment involves the client standing in a shower whilst they are sprayed by a therapist.  Bali Sun is a very natural colour and works with the tone of your skin to create an all over tan and healthy looking glow.  Clients can choose from "light" or "dark" depending on the look that they are aiming for although Scin recommends that clients with pale skin opt for the "light" and those with more olive coloured skin go with the "dark".


At Scin we like to keep things simple. Natural and Organic skincare products and treatments for men and women where you won’t find any gimmicks but you will find products that really work.  The Natural and Organic Skincare ranges at Scin are chosen for the quality of their ingredients and the postive effects they have on the skin.

The skin is the largest organ in the body and a percentage of what you put on it is absorbed into your system. At Scin we know that clients are becoming increasingly aware of the ingredients in skincare products and that is why we choose Natural and Organic Skincare ranges that try to minimise the amount of parabens, lanolin, mineral oils and other nasties.  Most of the skincare products at Scin are Paraben Free.

"Located in achingly hip Notting Hill, just around the corner from Portobello Road, Scin combines boutique charm with the practical philosophy of providing simple, quality treatments that work. Bespoke Facials and specially designed Massage are just a taste of what you can expect" (Times Online, 2006).

Scin Spa opened in December 2005 in Notting Hill, London. The founders of Scin, Anna and Nicky Noble, are dedicated to creating a warm friendly environment in which to enjoy beauty and spa treatments. "As I walk through the door, all flustered and desperate for a cup of tea I am greeted with a warm welcoming smile and I start to relax" (Times Online, 2006).

  

Anna and Nicky call Scin Spa a gimmick free environment. You won't find any wine, chocolate or other such substances posing as treatment consumables in the name of being different. Its all about quality products, well trained therapists and a modern comfortable environment for everyone.

"Notting Hill is known for many things but gorgeous day spas isn't one of them. All that could be about to change with the arrival of the bright, white and clinical-looking but ultra-friendly new spa Scin. The spa, which firmly emphasises skin and wellbeing is run by attentive therapists who offer a host of no-nonsense treatments including excellent facials, massages and manicures for both sexes" (Time Out London, 2006).

Anna has designed and continues to develop the treatments at Scin Spa. Anna has worked at the top end of the beauty industry for 10 years and has been trained by the best. All the massage and body treatments as well as some of the facials use gorgeous organic aromatherapy products.

"A Proper Back Treatment....Circaroma is being used for massages at Scin, a new wellbeing destination in London. One of the most popular things for men here is a back treatment - an excellent antidote to blocked pores and spots - which involves a scrub an application of hot compresses and a massage" (Kate Shapland, Telegraph Style).

"Scin, Notting Hill's latest boutique spa, offers tailor-made organic treatments in sleek surroundings. A hydrotherapy bath is also on hand to help you unwind" (Evening Standard, 2006). Scin Spa has a gorgeously dinky Hydrotherapy Bath for one or two people. This treatment is great for increasing circulation and warming muscles and is an ideal preparatory treatment for massage.

One of Scin Spas most popular treatments is the Dermalogica De-stress Facial which combines tension reducing massage with the practicality of a deep-cleansing facial - vital for stressed out city dwellers.
"For 90 minutes of relaxation heaven indulge in a Scin Spa De-stress Facial. It begins with a back massage that is deep yet calming enough to send you into a slumber, after which you awake to a tailored facial using Dermalogica products. Next you are exfoliated, steamed and moisturised until your face glows with cleanliness" (Bella on Beauty, Stella Magazine, 2006).
