FREEBIE FRIDAY


Welcome back friends to another Freebie Friday!

So I LOVE this one. I was first introduced to Jane Iredale cosmetics when I first started working at Casbah. I know... very behind the times but better late than never right?? For those like me... Jane Iredale is a line of eco-friendly mineral makeup that makes your skin look great and feel AMAZING!

One of my absolute favourite products is on the giveaway today... the Powder Me SPF 30! This is the coolest thing going. It's actually a sunscreen made for the face and body with the coverage of mineral makeup. The natural look never looked so good:)

To enter, simply leave a comment on facebooktwitter or right here telling us... your favourite season! Entries must be posted by Monday, September 2nd and one winner will be chosen at random and announced next Friday. Good luck!

Even if you don't win, you can still buy the Powder Me SPF 30 for a 20% discount here!


We would also like to congratulate Kristin for being the winner of last week's Freebie Friday... scoring herself the NEW St. Tropez Self Tan Bronzing Gel. Congrats!

FREEBIE FRIDAY



Can you believe this weather we've been having? Yippee! I just LOVE our city in this weather. I have big plans this weekend that involve fish, chips, a lot of gelato, sun and a lot of relaxing:)

And perfect timing to talk about tans!

This week our very own Emily was raving about her favourite St. Tropez Self Tan Bronzing Gel... a new addition to the store that really works wonders! I'm the WORST at putting on self tanners but believe me, this gel makes it a breeze with no streaks. We wanted you to try it for yourselves so we've been offering it at a 20% discount all week long. There's still time to save so be sure not to miss out! Check it out here.

And as a special treat, today we will be offering the gel for our Freebie Friday! To enter, simply leave a comment on facebooktwitter or right here telling us... your favourite ice cream flavour! Entries must be posted by Monday, August 20th and one winner will be chosen at random and announced next Friday. Good luck!

We would also like to congratulate @Harjit for being the winner of last week's Freebie Friday... scoring herself our own Casbah Aromatherapy Lemon Spearmint Body Scrub. Congrats!

MEET & GREET MONDAY


How long have you been with Casbah?
I have been with Casbah for over a year now.

What is your role at Casbah Evolution?
At Evolution I specialize in Novalash eyelash extensions, eyebrow shaping, full body spray tans, make up applications, and being a skin therapist I also offer our express facial treatments while educating my client on how to look after their skin with the appropriate products.

I know you do a lot of the spray tans at Casbah Evolution... how long do they usually last for?
The St. Tropez tans are like none other. They last typically 5 to 7 days without any maintenance. It's always best to pick up a homecare product to keep it hydrated, intensify it or keep darkening it and it can last as long as you want!

Do they take a while to apply?
The spray tans take no longer than about 20 minutes. 15 minutes for the application and then a few minutes at the end to dry.

What products are you really excited about?
This is the toughest question! I'm absolutely crazy about the new St. Tropez Self Tan Gel. It applies so evenly and easily and it doesn't leave your fingertips darker from the application at the end! St. Tropez Mitt is also a favourite of mine. It allows you to apply the products yourself without any mess with gloves or hands. Aside from those, I am addicted to Dermalogica's Ultra Sensitive Tint and our Glam Glow Mud Mask.

What is your favourite service to get at the spa? 
I think the Signature Facial is wonderful. Head to toe pampering treatment that includes everything you could possibly want!

What is your favourite thing to do on a Sunday afternoon?
Sitting on the deck in the sunshine, visiting with my grandma or hanging out at the beach with some girlfriends.

Thanks Emily!

Big news, we are offering our customers 20% off St. Tropez Self Tan Gel this week only! So come in or buy online... simply enter the code tropicaltan at checkout to receive your discount. Happy shopping!

MEET & GREET MONDAY


How long have you been with Casbah?
Since November of 2011.

What is your role at the Spa?
I am a body worker and I am taking my board exams in September to be an RMT!

What's your favourite part of the job?
I love talking to the guests after their massages when they are relaxed and feeling great... it's nice to see them smiling after!

What type of massage do you like best? 
From our massage menu,  I like the 90 minute Comatose Massage because it allows enough time to address areas that need more attention, while still having time to give a relaxing full body massage.

What is your favourite service to get at the spa? 
I like the 60 minute Massage with the add on brown sugar scrub, or the Express Body Scrub & Massage which includes both services in 60 minutes. Combining relaxation and exfoliation!

What is your favourite thing to do on a Sunday afternoon?
Most sundays you can find me working with a horse trainer starting colts! I love riding horses and taking my dog to the park.

Thanks Danielle!

A very happy BC Day everyone! We would love to celebrate with you and offer 20% off of our Sweetcheeks Body Scrub this week only! So come in or buy online... simply enter the code sweetscrub at checkout to receive your discount. Happy shopping!
