What's New


Gina's Human Tuning is very excited to introduce a new mineral makeup range by Divina Australia.
Divina is an Australian company with a focus on high quality, high performance products.  Where ever possible, Divina includes Australian, organic ingredients in its products.

We have looked at many ranges of Mineral makeup before but were holding out for a range that we would be blown away by.  We are so glad to have found Divina.  

Many people have mentioned that they have had trouble with mineral makeup in the past. 

Common complaints are

Mineral makeup makes my skin look too shiny. After using mineral makeup makes my skin feel dry & irritated. Mineral makeup seems hard to apply. It doesn't give enough/gives too much coverage

Most of the time this is caused by a poor product or improper application.

Gina's Human Tuning is holding small group classes to enable you to discover the benefits of mineral makeup.

These classes will be run by Angelina who is a qualified makeup artist.The classes will include information on the benefits of mineral makeup and how you can get the best results for your skin.  
 
Common complaints about mineral makeup will be addressed and any questions you have can be answered.

You will be guided through the application process and advised on which products are best suited to your skin.

For session times please phone 62866322.


New Pumpkin resurfacing peels
Combining high powered antioxidants and enzymes.

We are very excited to introduce a new skin treatment utilising the power of pumpkin.

Our new pumpkin peel will give you immediately visible results.  Because it is available in 2 strengths you have the option of a series of treatments or one intensive treatment.

Containing natural Lactic Acid, Glycolic Acid and Salicylic Acid, this treatment enhances cell turn over of the epidermis both on the surface of the skin and in the follicles
Lactic & Glycolic Acid enhance cell turn over on the surface of your skin while also working deeply in the dermal layer stimulating the rejuvenation of collagen and elastin for that youthful look.

Salicylic Acid penetrates deep within the skin follicles to give a deep clean and unclog pores which results in reduced blemishes.

Pumpkin contains the highest concentration of Vitamin A amongst vegetables, as well as Vitamin C, both are highly potent antioxidants. Antioxidants fight off free radicals caused by UV exposure, smoking, pollution and the natural life cycle of the skin cell.

Pumpkin also contains enzymes which help break down the keratin bond between dead cells. A smooth, more even toned, uncongested and clean skin is the result.

The combined properties of these acids make this an excellent choice for anti-acne, anti-ageing clients and hyper-pigmentation problems

To experience the skin renewal power of pumpkin, make a booking with Gina by calling 62866322.

Why Have a Sauna?

A Far Infrared  sauna causes extra toxic waste products to be purged from the body through the skin during perspiration.  The skin is often referred to as the third kidney, becuase it is believed to be responsible for eliminating 30% of the body's waste.  Far infrared saunas are a fantastic way to cleanse the body after the busy Christmas & new years season.

Contrary to what you might think, a sauna actually helps to regulate your heat and cools you down!  Far infrared saunas improve your body's natural cooling system, allowing your body to perspire more effectively and cool itself.

Extra perspiration cleanses the skin, as well as increasing blood circulation (which carries vital nutrients) to the skin, resulting in a healthier, glowing skin. 

As well as being very relaxing, having a Far Infrared sauna after a massage helps to:
  • Reduce pain caused by deep muscle work
  • Rid the body of toxins released during a massage and;
  • Speed recovery time of injuries
Health benefits of far infrared saunas include:
  •  Speed recovery of injuries
For injuries, FIR generated heat stimulates the vasodilation of peripheral blood vessels, bringing oxygen to joints and extremities, speeding the healing of sprains and strains, thus relieving pain and reducing the time it takes the human body to recover from an injury.
  •  Better Circulation and Increased Energy
The sauna emits FIR energy that is absorbed by human cells, causing a physical phenomenon called "resonance". Thus the cellular activities are instantly invigorated, resulting in a better blood circulation and an overall improved metabolism. 
  •  Weight Loss
FIR Sauna heat therapy can aid in weight loss by speeding up the metabolic process of vital organs and endocrine glands resulting in a substantial caloric loss in a sauna heat session.
  • Cardiovascular Health
The FIR Sauna increases heart rate and blood circulation, crucial to maintaining one's health. The heart rate increases as more blood flow is diverted from the inner organs towards the extremities of the skin, without heightening blood pressure

When combined with a massage, a session in the far infrared sauna is only $25 each, that's a saving of $10


D-tox foot spa
For renewed energy & wellbeing

The D-tox foot spa is a relaxing 30 minute treatment used to help rid the body of excess toxins.
 
Excess toxins in the body can be caused by poor diets, drugs & anaesthetics, illness & disease, stress & worry, smoking and alcohol.

Symptoms of excess toxins can be congested skin, poor immune system (colds, flus & sinus congestion), lethargy & tiredness, heasaches & migraines and breath & body odour. 

The D-tox foot spa rebalances and harmonises by sending signals up through the lymph glands to stimulate the detox process.
