We have put together a list of salon essentials with useful tips for you to make the most of these retail opportunities. Read on to learn about simple ways to gain incremental turnover in your nail business.

ProSpa Advanced Softening Gloves

Like a face mask for hands, these nourishing gloves are pre-filled with a blend of nut oils, vitamin E and shea butter to help leave hands feeling silky smooth.

Business know-how: This is an easy way to add an extra £8-10 on your service whilst helping your clients get softer skin. Providing these additional services builds client relationship and customer loyalty.

ProSpa Advanced Softening Socks

These single-use socks are pre-filled with ultra-moisturising macadamia and coconut oils, as well as vitamin E and shea butter to soften and nourish feet.

Business know-how: Can’t fit in that pedicure? Whilst the client has another pre-booked treatment, pop on the socks (or gloves) to a soak off and charge £8-10 more.

ProSpa Moisture Bonding Ceramide Spray

A manicure essential, the ProSpa Moisture Bonding Ceramide Spray contains vitamin E, ultra-hydrating ceramides, nourishing cupuaçu butter and white tea extract to help reinforce the moisture barrier, protect and soften skin.

Retail tip: Spritz on your clients’ hands and talk about the benefits of this product to promote sales ie multi-use, handbag and travel essential, perfect for adding moisture to the skin during colder weather.

ProSpa Nail & Cuticle Oil-to-Go

Offer your clients the all-time favourite ProSpa Oil Pen – convenient to use and a travel-essential, this is a great product to retail in your salon for clients who are concerned about their nail condition. This will not only soften nails and skin, but will also make colour last longer.

Business know-how: Even small amounts add up to fast profit. 4x Oil Pens per day = £16.80 and 20x Oil Pens per week = £84. 

ProSpa Protective Hand, Nail & Cuticle Cream

Put a little hand cream on every client and mention benefits: a multi-tasking high performance cream which moisturises, brightens and protects skin and cuticles. Contains natural ingredients such as shea butter, caisy flower and white tea extract, as well as protein-rich peptides to help plump skin, strengthen nails and boost collagen to keep skin looking youthful.

Retail tip: Have the ProSpa Display in a prominent place within your salon to showcase all ProSpa product and promote selling.

Gifting and Retail Kits

Every client has a list of gifts they need to buy. These mini nail lacquer packs and giftsets make a lovely present for clients’ friends and family. Give your salon a festive makeover by adding these to your shelves and maximise the run up to gifting season.

Retail tip: We recommend salons to stock up early on our kits, stocking fillers and advent calendars. Showcase and appeal to clients with a display that BRINGS OUT THE BIG GEMS. Selling 1x Retail Kit per day will increase your profit by £7.
