TREAT YOURSELF Enjoy the ultimate pamper day out at Sanctuary Cove.
WORDS BROOKE LOWTHER SANCTUARY COVE is well known for its retail and dining offerings but did you know it is also your go-to destination for a pamper day? From hair and beauty to health and wellness, this popular precinct ticks all the boxes, as I discovered on a recent visit. My first stop … Studio Eclettico Hair & Co for an uplifting brow sculpt and blow dry. The experience was sensational. Founded in 2017 by Zavier Lott, Studio Eclettico began in a small salon in Hope Island. Now boasting a larger light-filled salon, with rattan pendant lights, leather chairs and brushed gold mirrors for a warm welcoming atmosphere, this

relaxing oasis offers a range of luxury hair and beauty services including brow sculpting and threading, makeup application and blow dry treatments. Next on my agenda was a visit to The VAULT Skin Lab Sanctuary Cove. Walking in, you are instantly transported to a spa in the Mediterranean. Here, the best of modern clinical treatments and product ingredients are combined with the tradition of ‘old-school’ beauty to create new and modern approaches to skin health. Cathy Radford has distinguished herself as a passionate advocate of aesthetic skin improvement so knew I was in good hands.
With over 15 years’ experience within her practices in Orange Country USA, Sydney and now in Sanctuary Cove, Cathy specialises in tailored treatments and products designed to enhance an individual’s skin and complexion. There are a wide range of treatments on offer, however, I chose the restful and rejuvenating 60-minute Signature Facial. It was divine and I will certainly be heading back for my monthly facial treatments. As part of my health and wellness experience I had also scheduled an appointment with Elite Skin, the number one Advanced Non-Surgical Cosmetic Clinic on the Gold Coast.
