You will all be aware by now that the salon is temporarily closed following the government advice surrounding the Coronavirus pandemic. We’d like to thank you all for your understanding and kind messages of support during this time.
Our doors may be closed and treatments off the menu for the moment, however we are still working safely behind the scenes as this photo shows – Libby is continuing her apprenticeship and can be seen here practising her massage routines on her bear with Sarah coaching her via Zoom.
Elsewhere in the business, our webshop is open for home delivery following the social distancing guidelines. We have recently added new products including hair, beauty, aromatherapy and gift ideas. All our salon customers will receive free delivery on orders of £15 or more using the code: 15FPP

This month we’re putting the spotlight on tanning brand, St Tropez. St Tropez is the leading tanning brand chosen by influencers, celebrities, salon professionals and beauty editors alike.
St.Tropez’s products give a natural looking, streak-free tan with their paraben-free, easy-to-apply formulations, each of which contains a natural tanning agent. All tanning products from St Tropez, both those used in the salon for our professional spray tans and those sold for home use are cruelty-free. The brand also has a range of vegan friendly tanning products.
For home use, St Tropez produce self tan and gradual tan which builds over time. The self tanning products contain a higher concentration of the tanning agent (DHA), which results in a natural looking tan. Their gradual tans contain a lower level of tanning agent than the self tan which gives skin a sun kissed glow which builds with each application.
St Tropez use a 100% natural form of Dihydroxyacetone (also known as DHA) called Vegetan as their tanning agent, this is derived from plant sources including wheat and rapeseed. DHA reacts with the amino acids found in the upper epidermis (the top layer of the skin) and produces a different tones of colouration from yellow to brown. The levels of amino acids vary from person to person which is why we all naturally tan slightly differently in the sun, and the same applies with St Tropez tanning products.
The tanning products are combined with a unique blend of skin conditioning ingredients designed to protect and hydrate skin.

Your Guide to Step by Step Home Tanning
1. St Tropez Body Polisher (£10.00)– exfoliate with special care and attention to drier areas such as the knees and elbows. 2. Select your preferred tanning product. 3. Apply moisturiser to drier areas such as knees, elbows and knuckles. 4. Apply your tanning product as detailed on the packaging. With a product such as the St Tropez Watermelon Infusion Mousse (£31.00)(or any self tan as opposed to gradual tan) use a mitt to apply the product evenly for a streak free finish. 5. If you have applied a gradual tanning product where a mitt is not necessary ensure you wash hands immediately afterwards to remove any leftover product and avoid staining.
Perfect for an introduction to your chosen tanning treatment, the St.Tropez Watermelon Kit includes a reusable luxe Applicator Mitt and Self Tan Watermelon Infusion Mousse. The bronzing mousse tailors to skin tones for up to 10 days of even tan powered by hydrating watermelon extracts and vitamin E.

Tisserand Ethically Harvested Eucalyptus Oil
Strong, fresh and pungent, our Tisserand Eucalyptus pure essential oil is made from 100% Eucalyptus Globulus leaf oil which is steam distilled from the blue-green leaves of the plant.
It is cleansing, invigorating and bracing for the mind and body, most commonly used to clear congestion, coughs and relieve and revive tired, achy muscles, it is also known to offer a boost to circulation.
