About Inner Beauty

Inner Beauty is a beauty salon in Te Awamutu run by Emma Dill, who trained as a beauty therapist in 2007 and worked from a home salon for over ten years while raising her three children before moving into a purpose-built commercial premises. The salon also includes advanced beauty therapist Jacinda Versey, who qualified in 2006, spent time working in Australia alongside plastic surgeons, and specialises in advanced peels, dermal needling, IPL hair removal and skin rejuvenation, along with therapist Brooke Henkelman.

The salon is built around DMK skin treatments, including Enzyme Therapy, peels and the DMK Express Bar menu, alongside microneedling, dermaplaning, hydrodermabrasion and skin infusions. Beyond skin treatments, Inner Beauty offers a full beauty menu covering waxing, eyebrow and lash tinting and shaping, spray tans, lash extensions, makeup, massage and IPL hair removal.

With such a broad treatment list, Inner Beauty positions itself as a one-stop beauty destination in Te Awamutu, whether a client is after a relaxing facial, a full skin rejuvenation plan, or getting ready for a special occasion.

Inner Beauty: A Full-Service Skin and Beauty Salon in Te Awamutu

Inner Beauty in Te Awamutu began, like many great salons, as a home-based business. Owner and senior beauty therapist Emma Dill finished her training in 2007 and spent more than a decade working from home while raising her three children, before eventually outgrowing that setup and moving Inner Beauty into a dedicated commercial premises.

An Experienced Team

Emma isn't working alone. Advanced beauty therapist Jacinda Versey brings nearly 20 years of experience to the salon, having qualified in 2006 before heading to Australia to develop her skills further, working alongside top industry leaders and plastic surgeons. That experience shaped her specialities in advanced peels, dermal needling, IPL hair removal and skin rejuvenation treatments. Therapist Brooke Henkelman rounds out the team.

Built Around DMK Skin Science

At the heart of Inner Beauty's treatment menu is DMK, starting with DMK Enzyme Therapy across three levels, each building on deep cleansing, exfoliation and a Transepidermal Infusion to detoxify, rebuild and correct the skin. For clients wanting something more customised, the DMK Nutritional Treatment blends a relaxing massage with a corrective mask tailored to individual skin needs, while the DMK Peels — including the Lunchtime Peel and the Vitamin A-based Repair and Renew Peel — offer fast, visible results for tired or sun-damaged skin. The DMK Express Bar menu (Brighten Up, Clear Up and Skin Boost) gives clients quicker, targeted options between full treatments.

Beyond DMK: A Broad Treatment Menu

Inner Beauty's range extends well past enzyme therapy. Microneedling using a Dermapen is offered to address pore size, acne scarring, stretch marks and fine lines, while Dermaplaning — available as an Express or Deluxe treatment — removes dead skin and peach fuzz for an instantly smoother complexion. Hydrodermabrasion and Skin Infusion treatments combine diamond micro-polishing with targeted hydration, and DMK Alkaline Hair Removal offers a gentle, pain-free option for treating fine facial hair while also helping with ingrown hairs and acne-prone skin.

For body treatments, DMK Body Enzymes target cellulite, fluid retention and poor circulation across areas like the arms, tummy, thighs and legs.

Waxing, Lashes, Brows and More

Inner Beauty also runs a full beauty services menu covering face and body waxing, eyebrow and lash tinting and shaping, lash lifts and brow lamination. The lash extension menu is extensive, spanning Russian volume lashes, classic lashes and hybrid sets, each with infill options to maintain the look. For special occasions, the salon offers bridal, bridesmaid and special occasion makeup, along with spray tans using Moroccan Tan, and relaxation massages ranging from a quick 25-minute back, neck and shoulder session to a full 55-minute relaxation massage.

IPL treatments round out the menu, offering long-term hair reduction across the face and body through a course of sessions.

Inner Beauty is open Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, with hours varying by day — including a later close on Wednesday and Thursday for those who can't make daytime appointments. Saturday appointments are available by request, and the salon is closed on Sundays.
