Sara´s Beauty Center (SBC) opened its doors in 2009 in Marbella introducing the Swiss Mila d´Opiz products to all Wellness and Spa Hotels in Spain. The original salon was initially a training center for practically learning how to use Mila d’Opiz professional line for all beauticians working in those Spas. Due to the high demand for facials because of their quick, positive response on the skin, we ended up not only being a specialized learning space for our national distributors, but also the only specialized Swiss beauty institution in Spain.
Sara Aval, born in London from Persian roots and raised in Barcelona, is a qualified and trained beautician from ARCOS Mila d´Opiz Academy for Cosmetology in St.Gallen, Switzerland, where she trained and learned about Swiss cosmetics. Her passion for beauty started with the age of 11 years old, when she saw how her grandmother took care of her skin with home made Persian products like golab (persian rosewater) or honey bee; she was amazed of the glow of the skin when you just knew what to apply on the skin in the correct way. Sara's biggest passion is to know what's new in Swiss cosmetology and from there she likes to create a personalized skin treatment where the latest Swiss cream is combined with the right Persian beauty secret using natural products of her own country like golab , saffron oil or rose oil amongst others.
CIBTAC (Confederation of International Beauty Therapy & Cosmetology) has been producing beauty, complementary & spa therapy graduates of the highest calibre since 1977. CIBTAC qualifications are recognised by The Office of Qualifications and Examinations Regulation (Ofqual), who regulates qualifications, examinations and assessments in England and vocational qualifications in Northern Ireland.
The most demanding women in the history of my country, the ancient Persia, resorted to caviar and plant extracts to stop time. Now, in Sara's Beauty Center we revives those methods in a combination with Swiss precision in advanced cosmetic, to present the most exclusive treatments without any machinery or technology in the cabin. Why not use any advanced technology? Simply because it is not essential to use, when using the best products of the West with the "savoir faire" of the East. As a beautician these two features are my passport to an endless journey of health and skin beauty.
Facials are our specialty at SBC, beginning with a dermal analysis, and the rest continues with the Swiss protocols of treatments. In my study years as a beautician in St.Gallen, Switzerland, I was fortunate to learn the four "Sternen" ("stars" in Swiss German), was repeated in class, that all steps in a dermatological treatments are important , take time, care and of course knowledge.
By combining the Products of high-end Swiss formulas with the traditional Persian cosmetology, we are also rescuing the customs of the Persian women to stay beautiful. As an example I remember my grandmother had a peeling that was produced with sugar cane, and then hydrated the skin with caviar while sipping her chai (tea) in the kitchen, and with hot towels for her face to relax. She ended her ritual using the chai (tea), as a tonic! That acted as an astringent and reduced the “bags” under the eyes. Why not repeat that ritual uniting the Swiss cosmetology and the Persian botanicals in a framework of the traditional habits of Oriental beauty?
In Sara's Beauty Center we unite the two worlds, the precision of Swiss cosmetics, resulting in the advanced bio chemicals of the West mixed with the cosmetics and the ancient traditions of beauty in ancient Mesopotamia to make us feel as beautiful as we deserve.
The result is a powerful cocktail of Persian aromatic oils and plant extracts with Swiss creams of high purity in composition, with exclusive formulas to treat the most delicate skin or skin punished by time.
My dearly beloved grandmother, who taught me all the Persian beauty secrets I know today.
My grandmother , Nosrat Esfahani, in 2014, still teaching me beauty secrets at the age of 93. At that occasion she taught me how to indulge saffron with citric fruits as an anti aging powder combined with hibiscus, but always , always with rose water fragrance.
The soft lights, the cozy atmosphere and the white pureness invites you to relax in a SPA-like environment, where the two worlds fusions, the East, with its relaxing music and atmosphere, and the West, with its high quality product range where you can relax and feel assured that our beauticians will have full focus on your beauty and wellbeing in a friendly and professional way.
