Hi B&B friends! I’m back with another Glam Interview to whet your appetites. This time around we’re highlighting the uber-fab Marilyn Monroe Glamour Room spas! I caught up with Gina Berry, who is the Product and Trends Manager at for the company to get all of the deets on what makes their services so unique! I didn’t just focus on the business side of things, I also got her to share some insight on what treatments to try and skincare tips to follow during these cooler months.
What sets Marilyn Monroe Spas apart from other businesses?
Marilyn Monroe Spas has truly stepped up the industry standard for beauty. From the healthy products we offer, to the top notched services and the hospital grade sanitization, nothing is overlooked. This business was built with a focus on our guests’ happiness and health. Our nail polish is free of the toxic trio, our skincare is NaTrue certified (which is a certification signifying the highest level of natural and organic standards and ingredients). We are providing our guests with a responsible and healthy change in their everyday beauty routine.
What service would you recommend to someone who’s visiting for the first time?
Our Mariyln’s Signature Facial with an added Fassage! Our Marilyn’s Signature Fassage is our trademark service and it is incredible! I call it “beauty without the Botox.” It is a deep facial massage mixed with lymphatic drainage strokes to stimulate circulation, lift and tone the muscles. You can see results immediately; it leaves you glowing and rejuvenated.
What tips do you have for keeping it glam for the rest of the winter?
Winter means holiday time, which translates to fun colors in all areas of beauty. Winter means a heavier foundation in maybe a lighter shade (your skin tone changes somewhat from summer to winter). I love our Skin Transforming Foundation with SPF, for a heavier coverage during these months. You can also have lots of fun with eye shadows. During the holiday season, I love to add a little shimmer to my look. My personal favorites are Golden Glam and Ink! Richer lip shades are a staple for the perfect winter look. Think reds, plums, burgundies. I love our True Red 3, it looks great on all skin tones!
What is best way to keep skin hydrated during the cooler months?
Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize! Skin tends to lose a lot of moisture during these colder, windy, low humidity months. In order to replenish and maintain the skin’s moisture, we recommend washing the face once daily (you don’t want to overdo it), preferably after a long day. This will remove any dirt and makeup build up. You should moisturize your face and body twice daily during the frigid months and stay away from super-hot showers which can strip skin from natural oils, leaving it dry. I recommend our Rose Hip Cell Renewing Body Oil or Rose Hip Cell Renewing Body Lotion which contains jojoba oil which deeply hydrates the skin. For the face, I recommend our Pomegranate Firming Cream, it contains organic olive and avocado oils which moisturize and ease fine lines and soften wrinkles. My secret weapon is mixing the Pomegranate Firming Cream with our Rose Hip Cell Renewal Seed Oil Capsules for a double dose of hydration and antioxidants. Get your beauty sleep while the action happens!
What at-home tips do you have for keeping skin healthy?
I recommend doing quick at-home facials. They are my favorite, especially when time is tight but you really want to keep skin looking healthy. I recommend using our Rose Cell Renewing Polish as a gentle exfoliate once to twice a week depending on your skin type. This will remove any dead skin cells and impurities. Follow with our Green Tea Refining Mask which contains aloe vera extract that calms the skin and restores hydration and Green Clay which draws out any toxins. Since our skin loses its natural barrier, more bacteria can get into the skin’s surface. I also recommend our Rose Hydrating Daily Cream for daytime moisture because of the organic shea butter that not only hydrates but protects skin from environmental stressors. Our Pomegranate Firming Cream is great for nighttime moisture which will prevent collagen breakdown with its Organic Pomegranate Seed Oil.
What is the go-to beauty essential every girl needs to survive this winter?
Our Neroli Shea Butter Lip Balm and our Citrus Lime Refreshing Hand Cream. It is important not to forget about those delicate areas on our bodies that need just as much moisture as the rest! Our Neroli Shea Butter Lip Balm contains fig which seals in moisture and shea butter which protects and shields our pretty pouts! The Citrus Lime Refreshing Hand Cream is great to have in your handbag because it is super moisturizing and leaves the skin nourished and protected! Also, the lime essential oil increases energy and brightens the mind.
There is a gorgeous Marilyn Monroe Spa near me in St. Petersburg, Fla., at the Sundial that I’m itching to check out. A few of my friends have indulged and have nothing but great things to say about their experiences there.
I definitely have to make my way into the Marilyn Monroe Spa nearest me! I absolutely need a signature Fassage in my life!
Ciao Bellas,
Fassage! That’s my first time hearing that word. I’ll have to look into this further. Great interview!
Thanks darling! I definitely have to look into it myself!
