The beauty of ageing: Sol Spa
“Ageing is an honour,” says beauty therapist Natalie Gibson who is helping the industry shift to promoting self-love over fear.
“We live in a world that isn’t used to seeing true skin and that beautiful expression of emotion. There is so much beauty that comes with the ageing process – we shouldn’t be afraid of it,” says Natalie Gibson, founder of Sol Spa. Rising popularity in injectables and false perceptions from social media filters has unearthed an ideology to be challenged – one that Sol Spa is spearheading.
The day spa and wellness centre is a nurturing space of relaxation and rejuvenation where women can reconnect and feel safe within themselves. Celebrating one year to the day that Metropol first caught up with Natalie, the divine space inside The Tannery is valued for its holistic approach.
Natalie references the popular signature facial, where the team uses facial mapping to determine the surface and underlying issues. “Inflammation, dryness, breakouts – these correspond with our organs, and we provide both topical and internal solutions.” Treatments are infused with relaxing elements and energy work to soothe the nervous system so time spent inside Sol Spa is undeniably healing.
Cutting-edge techniques combine with time-tested treatments, such as facial sculpting, effortlessly releases fine lines. “We can give you back your true face,” Natalie says.
