Facials 101


Facials should be a part of your wellness plan. They can help you begin to truly love yourself by showing the real meaning of natural beauty!
Facials don't just affect your outward appearance, they also help your insides as well. They regulate your immune system, reduce the amount of fluid that has built up in the body and aid in stress relief. So many people have said that they need less makeup after facials, it will seem to glide on! Some even say that they don't feel like wearing any! You will be truly amazed at what facials can do for you.

Serenity Spa offers multiple facials to choose from.
All of our facials include a thorough skin evaluation, two step cleansing, exfoliation and mask. Also ALL of our first time clients will receive a goodie bag with Bioelements samples!! Below is a list of the different facials we offer and what you can expect.

Serenity Signature Treatment
This facial is custom blended to meet your exact needs. You'll experience a deep cleansing, custom blended facial, exfoliation, plus a serum mask targeted to your specific skin concerns. Can be done in an express or hour treatment.

Anti-Aging Firming Treatment
This facial treatment is for skin that's showing signs of age- sagging, fine lines and dullness. A thorough cleansing is followed by our exclusive layered exfoliation process, energizing massage and ultra tightening mask. You'll instantly experience firmer, more resilient skin. Can be done in an express or hour treatment. This is one of two of our most popular treatments.

Rejuvenating Surface Peel
This peel will dramatically improve dull, lifeless and rough-textured skin. It is customized to meet the level of exfoliation your skin needs with amazing results and no down-time. Your skin will feel smooth and retexturized with a brighter, more even overall tone. Can be done in an express or hour treatment. This is one of our most popular treatments.

Acne Clearing Treatment
This treatment focuses on deep pore cleansing and the removal of blackheads, whiteheads, oil and dirt. A treatment plan is recommended to achieve the best results.

Manual Microdermabrasion
Ultra-fine pumice crystals peel-away dull, dreary cells, abrade uneven skin and visibly reduce the appearance of pores. Youthful texture is restored and a healthy glow returns as skin takes on a polished, poreless look. Plus you get the added benefits of nourishing plant extracts and essential oils to soothe, smooth and comfort your complexion.

We offer two options for our facials:
Express Treatment (30 minutes)  $30.00
Hour Treatment $50.00

The additional time in the hour treatment allows us to focus deeper on your skin care needs. You will receive more add-ons making it even more beneficial for you!
The express treatment is perfect for people who are short on time or just want to see what a facial is all about... it's kind of a "sneak peek" of what's to come.

Many people ask how often they should receive a facial. The answer really depends on your skin. We create a treatment plan based on your needs to help each of our clients receive the best results! If you have any other questions feel free to contact us either by phone (641-582-2080) or via facebook!

*NEW* Body Polish Treatment!!


You may have heard or even tried a sugar scrub treatment before, but we're here to tell you that you've been missing out! Serenity Spa is proud to introduce you to our NEW treatment! 

Your skin is exposed to hot and cold weather on a daily basis and this can cause your skin to become dry, itchy and flaky. Taking baths can clean away dirt but it does not entirely remove the dry, flaky skin. Sugar scrubs can be very healing for people with skin conditions such as psoriasis or eczema and sugar scrubs exfoliate the skin. Sugar scrubs are the all-over body scrub and polisher.



Our Body Polish Treatment includes sugar scrub (5 different options!), hot towel application, stone placement, and a Hempz lotion rub down! 

Full Body Treatment: $75.00
Half Body Treatment: $40.00


A little tip, one of our scrubs is a coffee scrub. The caffeine found in coffee scrubs typically increases blood flow and may reduce the appearance of cellulite. Even the action of applying the coffee scrub can help with these types of skin issues because squeezing and massaging the body helps to release toxins and fats held in the skin.  Those benefits alone is a great reason to try our Body Polish Treatment!


Mention this blog and now through August 19th you will save $10 off your full or half body polish treatment!!

Give this treatment a try and you'll be amazed at the results!

The Truth About the Sun


Did you know almost 90%  of aging is caused by the sun? 
Pretty shocking right?!
Think you are safe on a cloudy day? Well think again! Even when the clouds are covering the sky 80% of UV rays can still pass through!


Have you ever heard that you should get a base tan before going on vacation? 
You may be surprised to find out that this saying is completely false
Any time your skin "tans" it is being injured. The only safe way to be in the sun is to wear an SPF. 
We recommend an SPF 50, this will block out 98% of the damaging rays. Don't forget to keep reapplying if you plan on spending the day out in the sun.
Many people will risk the serious dangers to achieve a tan. It can make a person feel thinner and outfits just seem to look better. We understand that and that's why we offer Serenity Spray Tans! Our spray in 100% natural. So save your skin a bunch of damage and apply sunscreen, stay out of the sun for long hours and get your tan the natural way with Serenity Spa Spray Tans!!

All About Miche!

Here at Serenity Spa we are proud to sell Miche bags! These purses are awesome because you keep the same base, which means no more moving everything into a new purse! All you have to do is change the outside (shell). Its as easy as 1,2,3!


1.Choose your base.
2.Choose your shell.
3.Attach shell to base
and your ready to go! It just takes seconds to have a brand new look!




There are three different options for sizes when it comes to Miche bags.


1. The Mini
Are you looking for a purse that is small but can still fit the necessities in an organized way? If so, the Mini is perfect for you! This purse is also great for shopping, it eliminates having a bulky purse that can get in the way.



2. Classic
This is the original. It has a great organization system and is the "middle" size. This Classic purse is a great one to start out with, since it has a very wide variety of shells to choose from.






3. Big Bag
The Big Bag is wonderful because it has plenty of room for everything you could possibly need. This bag also has shells with multiple pockets on the outside that is ideal for a diaper bag, there's also a changing pad included! (Example below) This bag would be a great beach bag as well.


Whats so great about Miche bags?
When you purchase a Miche you will no longer have to change out all of your items from one purse to another. (What a pain that can be!) It literally only takes seconds to have a brand new purse!
At any given time Miche will have at least 30 shells to choose from for every size bag. They also come out with new shells every month!
Once you have your Miche purse you won't want anything else!

The Amazing Benefits of Shellac!

Are you looking for a nail polish that will look great and last this summer? Well, we have just the polish for you!

Shellac by CND lasts 2-4 weeks!! (Normal polish usually lasts about 3-7 days) This polish has zero dry time because it is cured under a UV light, saving your nails from getting nicked, chipped or smudged! Once you try Shellac you won't want any other polish. Better science makes better products. The formulation of solvents, monomers and polymers is why Shellac goes on like a polish, wears like gel and removes in minutes! A regular nail polish remover will not remove Shellac, you will need one that contains acetone.

Stop by or call Serenity Spa today to make your appointment to try Shellac...you will be amazed!
