Fashion, health & beauty
Beauty on the menu
It’s been only a year since Rachael
Williams took over the Beau Belles
salon in Shanklin, but in that time
she has added a whole range of
new health and beauty treatments
to its growing menu.
Her team of seven specialists
can offer everything from
healing massage, hot stones
and reflexology treatments to
pampering sessions, eyelash
extensions and gel nail services.
The salon’s holistics specialist is
Kristie, who as well as being the
go-to person for massage-related
treatments, has also recently
undertaken a course in intimate
waxing, using a much more
effective hot wax, rather than warm.
Her colleague Elesha’s area of
expertise is lashes, and she is now
offering the brand new Russian
Volume Lashes treatment, to
deliver extra thick, sweeping
eyelashes.
The salon is best known for its
nail services, and in fact many
clients are surprised to discover
the wide range of other treatments
and therapies that are on offer.
Says Rachael: “We still get people
who come in and say they thought
we were just a nail salon – and
we’re delighted to show them we’re
actually much more than that!”
For more information or advice,
or to book an appointment, call

Belles at 110 Regent St, Shanklin,
PO37 7AP.
Creating eyebrow perfection
If you’ve tried
everything from
pencil, powder and
gel, to stencils and
tints – but find that
your brows still look
a bit too sparse for
your liking, then
microblading could
be the solution for
you.
This increasingly popular
treatment places fine hair
strokes to create a natural
look that leaves semi-permanent
results.
Microblading is actually a form
of tattooing – although it’s not as
scary as it sounds. Unlike normal
tattooing, a handheld tool is used
instead of a machine, to implant
the pigment under the skin. Hair-
like strokes are drawn in with a
tool to mimic the natural hairs in
your brows.
Anu Natural Beauty in
Bembridge is now able
to offer this exciting new
treatment, and their fully
qualified therapist is
enjoying the process of
creating beautiful new
brows for clients.
The treatment cost is
just £300, which includes
an initial consultation,
first appointment and
then a six-week follow up
appointment.
Pop in or call to book
the consultation with Anu
Natural Beauty’s therapist
Abbie, who will talk you
through the treatment process.
Find Anu Natural Beauty at
1 Lane End Court, Lane End,
Bembridge, PO35 5UE or call
