Nestled just outside the
beautiful historic town of Elora, Ontario, Enchanting Esthetics opened May 5th
2012. Owner and Esthetician
Ruth-Anne Avruskin holds an Honours Bachelor of Arts in Religious Studies and
Political Studies from Queen’s University, and a Juris Doctor from Western
University Faculty of Law. During her post-secondary studies, she took Make-Up
Artistry from St. Lawrence College in Kingston, Ontario,
Manicure/Pedicure/Waxing from Elegance Esthetics in London, Ontario, and Spa
Business from Fanshawe College in London, Ontario. Her dual passions of
environmental law and esthetics led her to open an eco-friendly esthetics
studio.
At Enchanting Esthetics we
believe that beauty does not have to come at the expense of the earth.
Ruth-Anne has put her legal skills to use researching Health Canada standards
for the spa industry so as to remain in compliance with all standards while
offering eco-friendly options for her clients. Enchanting Esthetics offers the
option of vegan polishes (Zoya and SpaRitual), uses water-soluble wax (no harsh
chemicals required to clean up!) and practices waste-reduction, recycling and
energy-conservation.
The studio itself is fairytale
themed, with the aim of making every client feel pampered like royalty.
Ruth-Anne has a number of wonderful products for sale, including a line of botanically-based, vegan products.
Enchanting Esthetics is open by
appointment-only, and appointments can be made by calling 519-846-2329.
