Louise Kelly Beauty Therapy: Relaxing Skincare and Artistry in Strowan

Tucked away in the tree-lined neighborhood of Strowan, Louise Kelly Beauty Therapy provides a calm and welcoming retreat for personalized skincare, beauty grooming, and makeup artistry. Operating from a private home setting on Hartley Avenue, the studio offers clients a quieter, more personal alternative to busy commercial salons. The setting is ideal for taking a brief pause out of a hectic day or scheduling a luxurious multi-hour pampering session.

Dedicated Beauty and Advanced Skincare

At the core of the practice is a comprehensive treatment menu designed around trusted, professional-grade products. Louise Kelly utilizes renowned skincare formulations from Priori and Sothys to deliver targeted facial therapies. These include the signature Advanced AHA Facial, designed to deeply cleanse and refresh tired skin, as well as customizable peels graded from Level 1 through Level 3. For clients looking for focused skin renewal within a tighter window, express Lunchtime Facials and microdermabrasion treatments provide quick yet noticeable radiance.

Body wellness and grooming essentials receive equal attention. Clients can unwind with a classic Full Body Swedish Massage or address localized tightness with targeted back, neck, and shoulder work. Full-body and half-body spray tans provide an even sun-kissed glow without sun exposure, while a full range of waxing options—from brow and facial grooming to Brazilian and full leg treatments—ensures comprehensive care under one roof.

Brows, Lashes, and Natural Mineral Makeup

Framing the eyes is an essential specialty at the Strowan studio. Services range from regular maintenance such as brow shaping and lash tinting to specialized lash extensions. Whether clients prefer a subtle touch-up with a Flirt Set or a dramatic transformation with an initial full set and ongoing maintenance, each application is customized to the client's eye shape.

For hands and feet, mini and deluxe manicures and pedicures can be augmented with soothing warm paraffin dips or finished with neat French polish. As a professional makeup artist, Louise also provides tailored applications for special occasions and weddings. In line with her focus on skin health, the salon retails and works with Youngblood Mineral Cosmetics, a makeup line formulated with natural minerals.
