A NEW ADDITION AT THE SPA

WELLNESS

A New ADDITION AT THE SPA

By Ashley Clark

As a Master Lash Technician and Licensed Esthetician,

all of my work is based on the sole purpose of making my clients

look absolutely radiant — the right way. Classic, Volume and

Hybrid Eyelash Extension Services are truly an art form that

must be properly mastered in today’s beauty industry, and after

nearly five years of extensive experience in the Boerne and

Greater San Antonio areas, I am privileged to be introduced as a

new addition to the Spa Team at The Clubs of Cordillera Ranch.

Since the beginning of my career, it has always been my goal to artistically transform my clients’ lashes by specifically customizing each individual session so that every end result leaves them feeling especially beautiful. My extreme passion for esthetic beauty compels me every day to provide only top-quality eyelash extension services that are safe, healthy and long-lasting. By working with some of the best adhesive, lash extension and product brands in the business, I guarantee my services will leave you feeling nothing short of completely satisfied, whether you are looking for a new everyday look or something fit for a special occasion. My eyelash extension services will also allow for more relaxing personalized sessions in the comfort and convenience of the Cordillera Ranch community. I provide a variety of services that are tailored specifically to your individual lifestyle demands, while fulfilling all of your lash goals.

Looking for something natural yet still beautiful? Whether you want to simply enhance your beauty or capture a different side of yourself, I can make it happen. The revolutionary Classic Flat Lash procedure allows for a single synthetic, light-weight, one-to-one lash extension to be applied to your natural lash resulting in a very lovely one-to-three coat mascara look. This style is great for all eye shapes and meant for most lash types.

46 | MARCH/APRIL 2020 I use current and advanced techniques in order to give each client the look that fits them the best. My Volume 6D Lashes are of the highest quality and are premade of elegant silk. They provide the most popular, stunning, fullest and longest-lasting lash style that I have available. By applying a very fine, single, lightweight, six-lash fan to one natural lash, this service results in a three-to-four coat mascara look. This set is designed for any eye shape and all lash types.

I love contributing something extra to clients whenever they need it. My trendy, specialty Hybrid Lashes utilize an alternating pattern application technique by applying a combination of both synthetic individual extensions and silk 6D fanned Volume lashes to your natural lashes. Hybrid services also allow for the most room to navigate extremely customized looks such as the much sought-after “point-tip” applications. This style is meant for all eye shapes and most lash types.

Furthermore, I also provide convenient refill options. If you have ever had or currently have eyelash extensions, you know that there are times when life just happens and getting to your lash refill appointment can be stressful. At the Clubhouse Spa, a standard one-hour refill is available along with beneficial extended refill options. This concept allows for you to add more time during your lash extension refill without having the expenditure of a new full set. Additional details are readily available during your consultation performed prior to your scheduled appointment.

Are you ready to start your lash journey? Contact me today and get the perfect look you’ve always wanted. I look forward to my journey here at The Clubs of Cordillera Ranch and I am ready to help members live a better and more beautiful life!

TWIN SISTERS PATIO EXPERIENCE

By Graham House

The spring brings us relief from an unusual winter season and opens the opportunity

to relax outside during the evenings on the Twin Sisters Patio. As breathtaking

25-mile views of the gorgeous Texas Hill Country unfold before you, this is your time

to recharge on Fridays with sunset crafted cocktails, a culinary tasting station,

live entertainment and a community of friends. Every Friday at the Club during

March and April brings back the Twin Sisters Patio experience.

COCKTAILS & WINE

Our amazing mixologist team creates inventive signature cocktails with fresh seasonal ingredients that are truly special. Popular patio cocktails include the Peach Raspberry Julep, Tequila Old Fashioned and Bacon Bourbon Bloody Mary with Smokey Chili Paprika Salt. The heart and soul of the team’s cocktails inspire a sensation that hits you — this place is truly special. You won’t miss our Wine Specialist on Friday nights. Jeffrey Cohen piques your interest to try wines outside your normal boundaries of flavor and terroir. Jeffrey provides exceptional hospitality with insight into winemaking and guidance in finding a wine that you are emotionally enamored with. There is a romance with wine and Jeffrey gives you a personal wine experience that complements the sweeping vistas from the patio and evening time around the firepit.

CULINARY TASTINGS

There is so much to tell about the Friday culinary offerings that it couldn’t possibly fit on one page. Upon your arrival at the

Twin Sisters Patio, our culinary team members will be preparing special tastings that pair wonderfully with the crafted cocktails and wine of your choice. Tropical Watermelon-Citrus Shrimp Tostadas, Warm House-Made Sweet & Sour Chicken and Crisp Firecracker Shrimp are a few of the selections featured in the past.

Our Ranch and Signature Menus are also available on the patio. Friday is

known for the fresh fish feature. The process starts with Executive Chef Isaac Cantu spending time to source the freshest fish available. When the dock receives the fish from the boat, it is flown overnight to the Club where Chef Isaac personally fillets the fish in preparation for Friday night. Another item, when seasonally available, is our selection of cold-water oysters. Blue Points and Prince Edward Island oyster selections are very popular and a great beginning to your perfect patio experience.

LIVE MUSIC

As the sun sets, live music fills the air as we welcome musicians with local roots. J Wagner starts the season off. As a songwriter from Austin, Wagner has been dubbed “A number one best bet” by the Austin American-Statesman, and the Dallas Morning News has called him “A Texas folk music staple.” The Austin Chronicle gives his album, “The Runaway Kid,” a perfect “Four Stars” and refers to Wagner as “A commander of words and ideation,” awarding him with their pick for best Local Singer-Songwriter for 2014. Wagner’s minimalist approach has been described as a relief — new like spring after a long, hard winter — and sublime as the sun setting on the Twin Sisters Patio.

Every patio has a story and this is ours.
