Welcome to the first edition of Beauty Professional Ireland Magazine in 2014.

2013 saw moi grab a nomination for ‘Best B2B Editor’ at the Irish Magazine Awards, 2012 saw our magazine nominated as best B2B magazine at the same awards. We cannot wait to see what will happen this year!

We all would like to thank you - our readers, our contributors and our advertisers. Your support, knowledge and trust has catapulted us to be the premier B2B magazine for the Irish professional beauty sector - in only three years!

So, from us all in Beauty Professional Ireland Magazine thank you!

Optimism. I love that word. It was very low on the ground for so long. Now, it seems to be renewed. Yes, we all have the fear that the past will repeat itself, but hard work and good strategising are two attributes we should never be scared or ashamed of.

I would like to bring your attention to the pull-out Skincare Supplement, which reports on new launches and stories from esteemed professional skincare companies. In this supplement we look at the established skincare brands we all love and showcase some new brands introducing themselves to the market for the first time. So, if you’re thinking of taking on an additional skincare range (an activity that many salons are currently engaging in) Skincare 2014 is here to assist you in making an informed choice.

With this issue we have our amazing wallplanner for 2014, which is free to all our readers. Make sure to pin it up in a prominent space in your salon or room, as it will serve you well during 2014. You can plan staff holidays, your visits to upcoming trade shows, make daily reminder notes and use it to plan the special days that your business should prepare for such as Valentine’s Day, Easter, etc.

On this year’s planner there is a useful numbers section, which will enable you to have easy access to phone numbers you will need to use during the year. In addition to this, you will find around the planner many suppliers’ contact details, each of whom supply professional product for your beauty business.

Again, thank you for your continued attention and support and I am excited to be working with you all in 2014!

Have a happy, busy and profitable 2014!

Love,

Lucy Earley Follow us on

It’s also designed for speed. It has a 10-, 20and 30-second timer built in, an easy-to-remove base so that curing pedis on the floor is a piece of cake and it comes with a protective cover to block external light for a better, more controlled cure. We’ve also designed it with an external transformer on the plug so you can use this light anywhere in the world (all you need is an adaptor and a passport).

We can’t decide whether our LED light is just a light or if it’s a time machine. Because with this new technology, you can cut about 20 minutes curing time off one set. In a surprisingly compact design, our LED light offers superior heat management, energy efficiency, and extreme reliability and durability. Even the bulbs themselves are built to last. Which is why LED curing lights are the choice of the professional nail tech. And they make a big difference in working with mani•Q color and soak-off gels.

The formulas for mani•Q color are stable, reliable, predictable and abundant. Our 18 introductory color selections are all-time customer favorites recommended by our Mentors (plus base and top coat), so you can entice all those new clients that soak-off gels especially appeal to. mani•Q colors are packaged in an easy-to-use bottle instead of a jar, each with an easy-to-spot color dot on the cap. And it’s formulated to be both fast and durable. With our LED light, you can work confidently and quickly with a zippy 30-second cure (saving you almost 20 minutes per client).

Beauty Professional Voices

Brow-Out BPI Editor Lucy Earley visited Elysian Brows on South William Street to check out the smart services the brow bar offers.

Elysian Brows was in full festive swing when I arrived to get a brow re-shape. The brow bar offers a fast-fix brow treatment, which is actually designed to shape your brows to their best natural shape over a period of time. With repeated visits your brows will grow where they need to grow, and retain the correct groomed look for their shape.

My own brow grooming was an education in itself.

Salon manager, Claudine Morrin, showed me where I was going wrong, and what needed to change. I was pretty delighted with the results after a thorough threading and shaping. My brows are now perfectly symmetrical (I didn’t realise that there were slight discrepancies in their alignment, but there you go!).

Claudine trained with owner Libby Ryan when they were originally based on Dawson Street. (They were there for four years.) They re-located to South William Street five months ago. A wise move, in my opinion; South William Street is shaping-up to be the grooming strip of Dublin.

From a purely business point of view I loved the layout of Elysian Brows. The brow bar is placed at the back of the front-facing reception area. The reception area itself is comfy; with a coffee machine and a chaise longue-style couch.

Other Offerings Below ground, Elysian has a nail bar, make-up/ eyelash area and a tanning area. There is a shower 14•••••Beauty PROFESSIONAL IRELAND

available for busy people who need to shower after work and don’t have time to head home first. A nice, simple touch.

Elysian Brows also offers Yon-Ka facials and aftercare products for retail. So think of all the services a busy woman or man needs on a Friday night, while they’re killing time before their night out, and you’ve got an mix of services and aftercare, which are carefully crafted - and in my opinion very clever.

INTRODUCING KISSED BY MII Enriched with marine mineral extracts, Kissed by Mii is new tanning collection from the highly respected make-up brand Mii, and we take this opportunity to introduce it to you. It has taken the nourishing benefits of coral seaweed and coastal flowers to replenish the skin’s natural minerals, leaving it sublimely soft for a beautifully developed tan.

A professional treatment as well as a complete homecare range, Kissed by Mii products and tanning routines are separated into three easy to understand stages – Prepare, Bare and Care.

Each step of the professional range has an emphasis on the treatment experience. Essentials like towelling robes maintain modesty and hair turbans comfortably protect hair, while Treatment Advice Leaflets provide clients with pre and post care information to help them make the most from their tan and encourage retail sales.

And making the professional’s life that little bit smoother, Effortlessly Easy Tanning Solution is packaged in foil to prevent air and light getting to it, with a dispensing tap that makes it easy to pour just the right amount for each treatment. High performance equipment includes an LVLP spray-tanning gun, which has been specially designed to make the most of Kissed by Mii Effortlessly Easy Tanning Solution, and an extraction booth to capture any overspray for a clean treatment room.

Created by Gerrard International, Kissed by Mii has options for both spray and manual tanning treatments, and is available exclusively to spas, salons and mobile therapists. Full brand induction courses, including product knowledge and application techniques, are available throughout Ireland.

The Business of Beauty

T.E.A.M

Beauty Business Expert, Liz McKeon asks, do you have the right team?

All salons and spas need to look at how work is organised in a positive way to help pull through tough periods. Different times call for bold and brave thinking. Do you have the right team, working together to achieve your business goals?

The TEAM (Together Everyone Achieves More) concept is a very powerful one because when team members work together for the good of all, the good of the salon and its clients, everyone achieves more. Simply put, working together works!

Teams are complex machines, and it’s not surprising that they malfunction occasionally, or need re-alignment and teambuilding. For your salon team to work effectively, you need agreement on exactly what sort of team you are: what are your salon goals, what’s each therapist’s role, who needs to work closely with whom?

Sometimes it’s as simple as learning more about the people you work with, and sometimes it’s more complicated. But the bottom line is, it is almost impossible to have a financially successful salon without a happy team working together – in other words, it’s less ‘me’ and more ‘we’!

Here are some positive aspects of teamwork: Goal Orientated: The highest priority for team members is achieving the team’s goals. Does every member of your team know and understand your salon/spa’s financial and business goals? To function effectively, members of a team must be flexible, trust one another, and support every member of the group in its progress towards achieving a successful salon.

Collaboration Collaboration is a big benefit when team members pull well together. They want the team to shine and be successful; they willingly invest themselves in the team effort.

Communication: When therapists, receptionists and managers have all learned to support and trust one another, they 22•••••Beauty PROFESSIONAL IRELAND

share what they know freely and communication becomes another benefit. The way people communicate with one another (both in words and nonverbal clues) reflects how they feel about working with one another, but it also builds the team’s effectiveness. Excellent communication is conducive to staff working productively without misunderstandings.

Better Decisions: Decisions and solutions are made with everyone generating more options. Group decisions are usually better than what even the brightest person could come up with alone. The entire team learns to pitch in for the highest good of the salon.

Quality: There is more concern for achieving quality and accuracy, because therapists feel they are an important and vital part of a team effort. They want the team and your salon to look as good as possible. In addition, because team members work collaboratively, they ensure that each member gets what she wants from the team to turn out the best possible treatments and service.

Do you want your clients leaving feeling happy and satisfied, looking forward to returning and happy to recommend your salon to their friends? Then make sure your team are working effectively.

Today, more than ever, it is vital for the success and survival of your salon that all employees work well in a team environment.

Coming together is a beginning, Keeping together is progress, Working together is success.

Get a feel for what’s hot, product wise, in 2014.

BLONDE IN 2014 Celebs change their hair colour like we change our shoes; it’s hard to keep up!

Blonde is in for 2014 with many trend followers copying Kim Kardashian’s recent blonde tone. To change Kim’s hair JOICO Celebrity Hair Colourist George Papanikolas started by lifting Kim’s base with JOICO Vero K-Pak Color Base Breaker Cool + 20-volume developer. Next he placed heavy slice foil highlights 2 ½ cm and 5 cm off of the root, using JOICO VeroLight + 30-volume developer. “I didn’t want the hair to look ‘rooty’,” George explained, “so I created a V-shape at the top of each highlight section.

This technique eliminates the appearance of a hard line of regrowth and gives the colour natural looking depth and contrast.” After lifting the hair to pale blonde, George finished with a glaze of JOICO Vero K-Pak Chrome V9 + activator to keep Kim’s new blonde hue super cool.

COLOUR BOMB Dashes of colour - even geometric designs on the hair are trending at the moment, and are set to continue well into 2014.

The JOICO K-Pack Colour Intensity system allows a stylist to create vibrant intense shades of semi-permanent cobalt and peacock hues, which condition the hair beautifully.

L’Oreal Professionel’s Hair Chalk (pictured here in an intricate design by Ashish at their S/S 2014 show) is available in a wide range of colours. Test it for dryness as it can dry out the hair. So you may need to use extra conditioning.

Structure’s Pigment Pencils (RRP €19.95) allow for precision application of three colours: purple, fuschia and blue, without drying the hair.

Each shade can be used on all hair types and work on both light and dark hair.

The lighter the hair, the more vibrant and visible the shade will be. Colour will wash out after one shampoo (two shampoos may be needed for more porous hair). The Pigment Pencils will not run in the rain. Work one shade at a time or use all three for a multi-coloured effect.

Human Resources

Staff Matters Penisula Business Services take a look at managing HR costs in 2014 Unfortunately, all reports indicate that 2014 will be no less difficult on employers than 2013 has been.

However, with a New Year comes a new plan and, despite the difficult economic conditions, the New Year is an opportunity for businesses to manage and plan costs. It’s important to proactively plan for the future needs of the business, here are some tips: Temporary Workers Employers need to be able to anticipate staffing needs, and actively be able to manage and match supply and demand. The increased use of temporary or specific purpose contracts can help businesses through busy periods, where they know they will only need that role for a certain period of time.

Managing Expenses Employee expenses (e.g. travel or food) can be extremely costly for employers - if not managed correctly. Employers are encouraged to have a clear and unambiguous policy, which sets out clearly the circumstances in which a claim can be made. In addition, is there a cheaper alternative?

Can that driver take a route that does not involve two tolls?

Managing Annual Leave The vast majority of employers are operating workloads with minimum staffing levels, and a major headache can arise when several employees request leave at the same time or, more disruptively, when several employees have excessive leave days remaining at the end of the year. Employers are advised to take control of annual leave through a clear annual leave policy, which will, in turn, ensure that the business in effectively staffed throughout the year.

One useful tip is to require employees to take a minimum number of days leave per quarter and, if they fail to apply, then the employer can apportion leave to that employee by giving them one month’s notice. This will ensure an even spread of leave days from January to December.

Managing Absenteeism Absenteeism can have a significant cost for businesses in terms of lost days and reduced 28•••••Beauty PROFESSIONAL IRELAND

productivity. A Survey on Workplace Absence in Ireland carried out by Graphite in 2011 showed that one-third of employers had changed their practices with regard to absence management in order to rein in the associated costs. This is not surprising when you consider that reports have shown that absenteeism costs the Irish economy as much as �560 million per annum. Some simple tips for managing absenteeism and reducing costs include tightened policies, improved absence monitoring, and carrying out return-to-work interviews.

Managing Overtime Several employers have contacted Graphite HRM to outline that they have difficulties with their overtime bill. Employers can effectively rein in these costs by specifically instructing staff that only ‘manager-approved overtime’ can be worked.

Employers are encouraged to have an express policy on this, and implement it strictly across the board.

Effective Policies An employer cannot underestimate the importance of having effective policies to deal with all eventualities. We have considered annual leave, absenteeism and overtime above, but have you got a policy to cover scenarios where you can’t provide work due to inclement weather? What about a flexible working policy or a lay-off/ reduced hours policy to deal with temporary shortages of work? With effective policies in place an employer can look to effectively manage costs with minimal risk and without having to take the dreaded step of implementing redundancies.

There are many options that can be tailored to suit your business needs, if you feel any of the measures discussed above would be cost effective to your organisation, then please do not hesitate to contact Peninsula Business Services and they will guide you through any changes you need to implement.

MUA Focus

Touch The Air Expert MUA, Airbrush artist and trainer Nichola Graham takes a look at the joys of airbrush make-up.

Airbrushing is considered to be a relatively new technique in make-up application. However, a rudimentary form was first used back in the 1920s as a way of applying body make-up to film extras quickly. Nowadays, people seem to either love it or hate it, and I really believe that’s due to having witnessed bad airbrush techniques and application. Believe me, if you learn to airbrush make-up well, you’ll never go back to applying make-up with a brush!

Airbrushing make-up is not only unbelievably useful for body painting work, camouflage and tattoo cover, nail art, tanning, sfx and photographic work, it’s also a flawless application tool when it comes to beauty, fashion and bridal make-ups. The technique is very hygienic because nothing other than the colour product touches the skin. It offers excellent coverage and comes in a variety of formulas.

Water-based Airbrush Foundation Similar to conventional liquid make-up they have longevity, and provide a soft matte appearance.

Recommended: Kryolan’s HD Micro Foundation from www.facefxmakeupsupplies.ie, ‘Mist’ by Face-It from www.face-itstudio.com.

Alcohol-based Airbrush Foundations Cosmetic-approved pigments suspended in cosmetic grade alcohol, often known as temporary airbrush inks, because they are used for creating fake tattoos. They can last anything up to six days once sealed.

Recommended: Kett Cosmetics, Hydro Proof Foundation from gurumakeupemporium.com Silicone-based Airbrush Foundations These formulas consist of cosmetic-approved pigments suspended in a silicone base. These make ups not only have excellent longevity, but also retain a fresh, dewy look.

Recommended: MUD from flair.ie Kits Mist by Face-It is a full airbrush make-up kit.

Call Martina 087/9078002 to arrange your purchase or training.

Airbase can arrange several types of kits to suit your make-up collection. Go to: Airbase.co.uk Nichola Graham will be running courses starting on Monday the 10th of February, Monday the 10th of March and Monday the 14th of April on Levels 1&2 airbrush make-up.

MUA to the Celebs Ken Boylan rocks a few looks for nights out in Spring.

Inspired by movie stars such as Veronica Lake, Ken has given a modern day twist to these classic beauty looks; using the latest productions from his Make-Up Play range. Berry hues rule supreme this year with lips getting full attention in ‘Trump Card’ lipstick worn with a slick of Kilmainham lip-gloss on top. Eyes are accentuated with a flick of the eternally glamorous ‘black tattoo’ liquid liner but given a dramatic twist with ‘Ruby’ eye shadow worn on the brow bone and blended with ‘Pomegranate’ and ‘Time Flies’ in the socket.

For a rock chic after-hour look Ken has created a wet-look eye with a twist using ‘Aghadoe’ a kaki green shadow layered over a matte black shadow 34•••••Beauty PROFESSIONAL IRELAND

base of ‘Tar’. The wet look was achieved by dabbing ‘Orlando’, an opaque pink lip-gloss on top of the shadow. For a longer-lasting party look with a similar effect Ken advises that you replace the topcoat of gloss with a dab of highly crushed mineral shadow in ‘Mrs. O’Brien’ - a shimmering green tone. “This technique will last the night and not budge no matter how hard you party,” advises Ken.

She began working with chemists to develop a suitable option — a product that would cover raw, inflamed or discoloured skin, while allowing it to breathe and heal. This led to her initial work with natural mineral cosmetics. This excellently arranged stand showcases the stylish packaging, and allows clients to test products easily and determine the best product tones for them.

THE JOYS OF SUGAR PASTE! Helen Dunne has been training therapists for years in all aspects of beauty and massage, but she has found the answer to the prayers of many a wax expert and that is hair removal using sugar paste. She says: “It’s amazing the way it works. It is the only removal system that I trust for that downy hair on the face.

Increased use of steroids, hormone imbalance and harsh elements such as the sun has caused this to be a common problem. Using sugar paste is gentle, it doesn’t drag the skin and exfoliates; leaving the skin soft and smooth. The growth becomes progressively weakened and returns lighter. Massage therapists take to it quickly, as it is very like massaging the skin while removing the hair. Clients tend to drift off during treatments its so gentle. All areas can be treated even eyebrows and Hollywood waxing.”

10 main reasons why body sugaring stands out: 1. This honey and sugar paste is highly effective for both men and women of all ages and complexions.

2. The honey and sugar paste is highly effective; it spreads onto the skin in the opposite direction of hair growth, into the hair roots and is removed in the direction of the hair growth to prevent ingrown hairs and hairs grow back flat to the skin - not standing upwards.

3. The honey and sugar paste is 100% healthy.

4. Honey and sugar paste prevents breakage.

5. The honey and sugar paste is spread onto the skin by hand in tepid temperature.

6. The paste is 100% water-soluble. Everything washes clean in seconds.

7. There is no need to use razors between the treatments.

8. Honey and sugar pastes will not adhere to living skin cells.

9. Shatis honey and sugar paste is 100% natural.

10. There are no acids, without lemon juice, citric and tartaric acid, or other acids. Acids increase skin photosensitivity.

11. Sugar paste can and is used on skin with psoriasis and eczema 12. Removes very short hairs. It is especially effective on that fair facial downy hair on the face.
