Here are our favourite on-demand beauty services that will quite honestly change the way you beautify forever…
Urban
If your body aches from exhaustion and you need a quick pick-me-up, a tap on your phone will bring one of Urban’s therapists to your home or office – with their table and oils in tow, within an hour if you so wish. The massage menu offers everything from traditional Swedish techniques to more holistic offerings such as Thai massage and reflexology plus an oncology massage for cancer victims. Urban also has nails, hair, waxing, barbering, lashes, make-up, and facials on offer, too, the only thing you need to provide are the towels.
