About Us


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. Enchanting Esthetics is also on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Enchanting-Esthetics), and on Twitter (@1EnchantingSpa).
