Hello, I am Maren, an esthetician. Saltbox is one treatment room above a shop on Lamplight Lane, and I see one client at a time. No waiting room, no pressure to buy a thing.
Facials and brow care, Tuesday to Saturday, Charlottetown.
Every facial starts with a talk about your skin and ends with a plain note on what I did. Prices are in Canadian dollars, before HST. Not sure which to pick? Book the Custom Facial and I will adjust on the day.
Start here
60 min
My main treatment. I look at your skin in good light, hear what you use and what has changed lately, then build the hour from there.
45 min
For skin that feels tired or touchy. A gentle cleanse, a soft exfoliation, a calming mask and a slow face and shoulder massage. No extractions.
$8560 min
Your shoulders and upper back get the care your face does: a cleanse, a gentle exfoliation, a mask, then a massage. You are draped throughout.
$11090 min
The Custom Facial with more time in every step, plus a hand and arm massage and a longer mask. Worth it when you can slow right down.
$155Brow shaping, brow tints and lash tints.
Before any hair is touched, I mark three points: where your brow starts, where it arches and where it ends. You see it in the mirror and say yes, or ask me to move a dot.
First tint? I do a small patch test behind your ear at least a day before. A tint can cause a reaction in some people, so I do not skip it, even if you have had one elsewhere.
Your first visit, in three steps.
Ten minutes with the lights up: what you use, what has flared lately, what you hope to get from the visit. If anything looks like it needs a doctor, I will say so before we begin.
You lie back under a warm blanket. I work in slow, gentle steps and tell you what is coming next. Say stop, softer or skip at any point and I will.
I write down what I used and how to look after your skin for the week. There is nothing to buy on the day. If you ask what I used, I will give you the name.
Skin care here is for comfort and upkeep. If something looks like it needs a medical eye, I will tell you kindly and I will not treat over it. Here is where each of these belongs.
Injectables, lasers, microneedling and strong peels
A medical aesthetics clinic with a physician or nurse practitioner. Ask who does the treatment and what training they have.
Rashes, eczema, rosacea flares, acne that scars or hurts
Your family doctor or nurse practitioner first, then a dermatologist if they refer you.
A mole or spot that has changed, bled or itches
Your family doctor, soon. Please do not wait for your next facial.
Permanent brow tattooing
A permanent makeup artist, who will have their own training and health inspection.
Prescription creams, and advice on treating a skin condition
Your pharmacist or doctor.
