Environ Salon of the Year Award Winners
A passion to deliver results-oriented skincare has paid off for the businesses which received Salon of the Year accolades from Environ Skin Care at a ceremony held 29 June in the elegant surroundings of Home House in London.
The UK Salon of the Year accolade was awarded to Face It in Highgate, North London, the salon’s sixth consecutive win - and the runner-up award to Beyond Spa at Harvey Nichols.
The Irish Salon of the Year award went to Monica Tolan’s Health and Beauty Clinic in Balbriggan, Dublin, with the runner-up award made to Total Wellbeing from Sandyford, Dublin.
Proud owner of Face It, Donna Gershinson, said, “I was honoured to win this award again as the level of competition is increasing each year and we can never rest on our laurels. We have to constantly keep evolving because this industry is moving so fast. It has been a privilege for us to work with a skin care product that delivers results and makes coming to work a pleasure.”
Monica Tolan’s Healthy & Beauty Clinic was set up by Monica in 1982 and since her retirement in 2007 has been run by her daughters Corinna and Rhona. The clinic has been a stockist of Environ for four years.
Accepting the award with her sister, proud Corinna said, “I am truly grateful to Environ for the direction it has taken us, not only with results but also with the amazing relationship we now enjoy with our clients. An Environ client is a far more educated, loyal and trusting client.
“I can now make changes occur in the skin that I was powerless to do before,” she adds. “I can now give clients the gift of beautiful healthy skin with a structure that is resilient to the stresses and strains of modern living. Ourclients not only enjoy this new relationship with their own skin but they also have a very special inexpensive secret to pass on to their own family and friends.”
Tracy Tamaris, director of anti-ageing skincare brand Environ’s UK distribution company, presented engraved rose bowls and cash prizes to the winners, commented, “The winning formula for all was a combination of expertly applied product knowledge, effective client education and the cultivation of a loyal clientele whose repeat purchases reflect satisfaction exceeding expectations.”
