Haven't been for one in over a year. Can anyone recommend a good place in Zurich with hopefully some relaxing involved? Would prefer natural products, but am open. Not really after something intensive.
Thanks,
Nanda.
Hey everyone,
I've moved from the slow dances thread straight to this one.

I've been to Labo Spa. Never had a facial but they give a very good pedicure and the atmosphere is nice. Little pricey, but such is Zurich.
Also there is are listings in the little Zuri guide they give out to tourists.
Haha, Dave you old rascal
I've had quite a few since I've been here
Pervs.
I go to Schminkbar once in awhile ( http://www.schminkbar.ch ). I've never had a facial there but I've been pleased with other cosmetic stuff. They have a nice relaxed vibe, the chairs and sofas are comfy, and you usually get free tea and a little fruit-skewer or something like that. Prices seem reasonable to me, but I don't go that often so I'm not good at comparison shopping.
Actually...come to think of it...they weren't recommending I had a facial so much as suggesting I try plastic surgery
I've used the spa in Globus a few times, however I've never had a facial there. The atmosphere is really relaxing and the staff are lovely and the prices are reasonable but probably not the cheapest in the city!
I've been to many Spa here in Zurich, but so far the best facial i had it was in The Club Olympus in Park Hyatt Hotel, the service is 5*****, and the service provider is very nice, friendly, and the product 5***** and i recommend Miss Caterina Rodriguez, she has magic hands for massage also,,,,,
here's the link: The Club Olympus
hope it's help
Thanks everyone.
I went to Globus and it was expensive and well .... apart from being relaxing, I found the staff to be quite inexperienced. On a selling run (but not too bad, seen worse).
Then the two lovely women working at Globus (who completely agreed with me) gave me a tip - right across the road, their old colleague (pre-globus days) does fantastic facials that they're still regulars there:
I've been going there now for over a year and it really is very good. They don't speak much english, but if you can make a sentence or two in high german, they're very friendly.
Oh...THAT kind of facial.......
Hey Nanda,
I've been to Globus for facials and I really do have to say I've always had a great experience. I think it is fully worth the price (chf 150 -280)- and it's really not more expensive than other places. I actually went to labo spa - very pretty, but had a bad experience and found it very expensive. At Globus, they will tell you what kind of facial you need and what products they think best to use too. This girl Regula (don't know her last name) is really so good. Sweet and gentle.
I tried Labospa because it was recommended on another thread I cannot find anymore and can confirm: fresh water would have been more effective than the treatment and products they use
for 150 CHF + 28 for irrelevantly plucked eyebrows...
thanks for the globus recommendation, I'll give it a try.
thanks in advance for sharing any other precious experiences !
Try Michelle.She runs a saloon in zurich and her website is finemore.ch
I love her neat and minute work.
Had great experience everytime i went there.
If you are looking for something natural and relaxing I am a qualified facial rejuvenation therapist. A treatment consists of an hour long facial massage without using any creams, oils or chemicals.
It is designed to produce a natural lifting effect.
If you want more information take a look at www.naturalfacialrejuvenation.ch
I can also highly recommend Michelle Finemore at The Green Room, in Enge (close to Bhf Enge and Museum Rietberg). She's a Brit, also speaks German, and uses quality products (Matis) and her pricing is more reasonable than bigger places. It's also quiet and relaxing because you are the only one there.....
I was there (Michelle Finemore) today and she currently has 20% off her Classic 2hour facial - until May 15 I think she said. She's really, really good and also does eyebrow threading ...
She's looking for a hairdresser to work with her if you know someone.
