Angela Rosen opened the doors of Seattle’s renowned Penelope & The Beauty Bar 10 years ago. Located inside the historic Fairmont Olympic Hotel in the heart of downtown, Penelope & The Beauty Bar quickly became Seattle’s most in demand day spa. In 2016, Angela brought the leading services from Penelope & The Beauty Bar to a new market, creating the ultimate destination for customized skin care in downtown Manhattan with DAPHNE Studio. The team’s specialty is blending the philosophy and techniques of European skin care with the most up-to-date technology on the market. Most notably, the traditional Sugaring is a very unique service not offered by most waxing and sugaring locations in NYC.
Both spas carry premier French skincare brand Biologique Recherche and feature highly clinical and customized, results-driven facial and body treatments, including body wraps and body polishes, for both men and women. All of the spa’s estheticians are carefully selected and European-trained, bringing years of experience to its clientele.
The spa treatments include European facials and non-surgical face-lifts, utilizing the best micro-current machines in the industry. Our French contouring + detoxifying wrap and body
scrubs, along with the body-toning ion magnum can help with improvement in skin texture and weight loss. Their range of bodywork consists of several massage modalities, such as prenatal
massage and cranial sacral therapy. Grooming services include hair and makeup, as well as eyelash extensions, waxing, sugaring, and nails. In addition, we offer infrared sauna and collagen bed treatments. They carry exclusive, top-of-the-line products brought to Penelope & the beauty bar directly from Europe.
Nearly 40 years ago, when the laboratory Biologique Recherche was created, Yvan and Josette Allouche, a biologist and a physiotherapist, combined their expertise and passion to chart their unique and visionary course on the cosmetic care market. The company was then operating as a research and development unit, the sole purpose of which was to create care treatments and formulate products designed for professionals disappointed with those that already existed.
Nowadays, the combination of a clinical approach to personalized cosmetic treatment, pure, concentrated, almost raw products, complex formulas and original and rigorous treatments is the foundation of the reputation for efficacy of Biologique Recherche's Methodology. Biologique Recherche personalized treatments are now available in more than 70 countries in cosmetic and medical strongholds which exclusively distribute the brand's treatment methods and products.
