Lisa
With skin health being so directly aligned with internal health, Lisa thrives on holistic beauty practice, choosing products for her salon which facilitate and support this principle.
Lisa’s favourite products:
This is very hard as I have many favourites but if I couldn’t live without my Environ Youth EssentiA C-Quence Serum 4Plus and Cream Plus packed full of concentrated vitamins, antioxidants & peptides to future proof my skin against ageing and with my gold roller is the absolute best!
Lisa’s favourite treatment:
Hands down Dermapen and LED! Anyone can have and the results are outstanding!
Go-to gift: I love the Bestow Teas, a great way of Introducing people to the “Time for me”, “time for tea” ritual.
What Lisa takes on holiday: I take away all my products with me, wherever I go as I can’t live without them. This can sometimes be a disadvantage as it almost takes up half my suitcase.
Alex
I have been with Gloss now for well over a year and been in the beauty Industry for the past 6 years. What I love about my job is the journey I get to go on with my clients and knowing I made a positive impact when they leave Gloss.
Alex’s favourite products:
My favourite products right now would be the O Cosmedics SPF 50 tinted. We need to be applying everyday of the year and this one is a beautiful product, perfect going into these cooler months. I am also loving the introduction of a night treatment using the revival masque and hydrating oil caps over my skincare, go to sleep and wake up feeling fab!
Alex’s favourite treatment:
My favourite treatment would be a Glow getter facial. I love the glow getter because it it targets any concerns you may have as well as receiving a really relaxing facial leaving your skin looking and feeling hydrated and glowing.
Alex’s goals:
My goals for this year would be keeping well and enjoying what this year has to offer!

Kimberley’s favourite products:
Environ Serience Night Serum is a firm favourite providing luminosity to my skin keeping it at its youthful best.
Juvenate Uplift Eye & Lip Serum – love this!! so good to have one product be multi-functional for eyes, lip and frown to keep those fine lines and wrinkles at bay.
Kimberley’s favourite treatment:
Environ Cool Peel Treatments – these are amazing and not one to be worried about. Your skin has never felt better: smooth, hydrated and ready for another!!
Go-to gift: Jane Iredale Just Kissed Lip and Check Stain – everyone always loves some lip colour with hydration, stain and handy to be at every need in your handbag. Comes in 3 colours Peach is my favourite, Pink and Red.
Izabel
I am the newest member of the Gloss team! After working for a bit in Queenstown I realised that it was time to come back to my home town here in Matamata.
Working with skin is such a rewarding job as you are able to be on the skin journey alongside clients. It is amazing to be able to treat everyone in their own personal way to suit their goals whether that is for results, relaxation or even just a bit of a brow tidy!
Izabel’s favourite products:
If I had to pick only a few products I couldn’t go without O-Biotics B3 plus serum as it’s an amazing all rounder. It’ll help target that pigment, it’s collagen boosting and protects against all those nasties in the environment!
Another go-to would be the environ skin essentiA moisturisers, it’s fun having them as a step up system and being able to increase that Vit A every time while obviously delivering that daily hydration.
Izabel’s favourite treatment:
This would have to be the Gloss signature facial!
It’s great for just about everyone, this facial includes everything you would need in a facial, the beautiful alginate mask, a skin peel, neck and shoulder massage and even the Led light!
Great for someone that’s new to skin treatments but can be amped up with add ons for a more advanced skin client.
Go-to gift: You can never go wrong when gifting our delicious herbal teas! there is a variety of flavours to pick from and are tasty at any time of the day.
