I do recommend this spa if you are looking for holistic products and practices. The staff are very knowledgeable and friendly. I always have a good experience at this spa.
Pure & Simple has by far the best facials in Toronto. I have been going once a month for the last few months and my skin has never looked better. I've always had decent skin but in the past year it' got very oily and was breaking out. I was trying everything to combat the oil but it was just getting worse! Thankfully I tried out Pure & SImple (after readying reviews on here!) and since then my skin has completely transformed. The staff are so knowledgeable and after my first facial could explain to me what was going on. Turns out all the harsh skin products I was using was drying out my skin causing the oil. I stocked up on their Pure & Simple products although i was a little concerned about using face oil on my already shiny face but, I'm so glad I listened. I 100% recommend following their advice - I've never been disappointed with a product I've bought there and my face has cleared up and my complexion is even and glowing.
As for the actual facial experience - it's AMAZING! They use natural gentle products and you get a massage to fully complete the relaxation (and make extractions more bearable!) unlike at other spas where you are just left alone while your mask is on. The whole experience is fantastic!
I first heard about Pure Simple when the I saw the founder speak at a conference. Right away I was impressed with her knowledge and and commitment to skin care.
I decided to start slowly with Pure Simple and went in for an eyebrow wax. I know this might sound a little bit over the top but it was the most enjoyable eyebrow wax I have ever experienced. They basically gave me a mini facial! The eyebrow wax began with a facial massage which completely relaxed me. By the time they waxed my eyebrows I was so relaxed I didnt even feel it!
I can't wait to go back!
I would definitely recommend it to everyone I know!
*** Editor's Note ***
This gourmet version of the eyebrow wax isn't technically on the menu. Pure + Simple advised us that it's something the esthetician did in this case because she had some extra time. For an amazing facial massage, we recommend booking a facial to go with the wax.
Pure and Simple has a few locations. I go to either the Yorkville or Yonge & Eglinton location.
I've been going for regular Urban Renwal Facials for about 2 years and I've noticed a big improvement in my skin.
The Urban lasts about an hour, maybe a little longer depending on your esthetician. Two masks, steaming, extraction and a wonderful leg, neck and arm massage. I'm totally relaxed when I leave and my skin is glowing.
Pure and Simple also sells their own line of skin care products. Everything that has been recommended to me that I've tried has been great.
