About Us
Our main goal at Essentials Beauty Lounge is to ensure that every moment of your experience is both relaxing and effective, in a comfortable and accepting environment. Our spa is located above Skaha Lake with a gorgeous panoramic view to give you a complete sense of serenity as soon as you arrive.
Above all, we want our clients to feel confident and comfortable in their skin, which is why we treat each client based on the unique individual that they are. We take their goals & concerns and create a personalized treatment plan while supporting them through each step of their skin journey.
At Essentials, we will do everything we can to help you feel beautiful, confident, and comfortable in your skin by sharing our extensive skincare knowledge, treating you with the care and support you deserve, while providing you with luxurious, results-driven skin treatments.
So that we can help you be,
Essentially… You!
