Skin Deeper — Alayne's Blog

What is a MASK BLAST? SIMPLE. We cleanse, analyze, mask and moisturize. You choose a hand massage or a scalp massage (because we can never resist the chance to add some ahhhh). We do these quick to the point services because we know that you will see results when you come in more often. Add the skin regimen to this and there will be no stopping your skin looking purely delightful. The…

 We all make resolutions. The endless lists of shoulds and coulds and supposed tos. As I get older, what I have noticed is that I am way more patient with myself. The younger alayne would make these absurd lists of resolutions that no human could ever keep, set up to fail from the beginning. What is the fun in that? Here is my resolution for 2016. Know that every moment is special. There…

Skin services are not like a haircut. With a haircut, you look in the mirror and you know you need one, with your skin, not always. We know that skin is better with our facials. Yes it is relaxing, sure, but most importantly, we are about great skin at alayne white.

 I am not sure if there is another industry that offers as many choices as the "skin care" industry.  Options....sounds positive right?  What if we change the word, and say choices? Still positive?  The word overwhelming comes to mind.  Below are a FEW suggestions to help navigate the extensive field:

1.  What are you trying to accomplish?  This is always the first question we ask when…

Here we are, summer at last. Every day the sun is out, I am grateful for its warmth and light. I have actually been going to the beach at 4 and staying until 8 because the light is so amazing. When was the last time you packed a picnic and ate outside for dinner? It is such a simple act and rewards so generously. It also reminds me that today is now, we so often procrastinate simple joys under the…

Whether you are a mother or you have a mother or both, whether someone other than your mother raised you like a grandmother or an aunt, the maternal role is an omnipresent force in our lives.Before we even get out of the door in the morning we have completed an inordinate amount of tasks, frazzled and running is how we see most women come into our spa to have that one moment in the say where they…

About 7 years ago, i decided to let my hair go white. I stopped coloring it, I cut it all off and let it grow out and a new look. I get lots of comments on my hair. If you are feeling great, it shows, no matter what your hair or your brows look like and for some of us the 2 go hand in hand. I want us as women to collaborate, to celebrate with each other. To enjoy our strengths and weaknesses as the tribe that we are.

I have been friends with Kathy for 37 years! Wow. For our 40th birthday, we went on a 10 day walking trip of Tuscany, I can not believe that was 10 years ago. Her daughter, my Godchild, Caitlin, worked for me for over 7 years and kathy was my model when I had to take my test at esthetic school…

What do you see when you look in the mirror? What do you say? Is it possible for just one day that you write down something nice on an index card and look in the mirror and say it aloud with a big happy smile?

I so often look in the mirror and go negative on my body, always critical, never good enough, no matter how great I eat, no matter how fit I am, there is that voice that…

What do your brows say about you? What do you want them to say? Did you know that at alayne white we have some incredibly talented brow wax superchicks? I know how much I love getting my brows done, it gives me a fresh clean look and I always feel like I look a little brighter…
