Relax and R-“EVIVE”

Services that provide the care you need to be your best self

As a mother juggling her family and her business, Julia Cheng of Chatham appreciates the importance of self-care. “In today’s world, everyone is extremely busy with work and family, but finding a quiet spot for us to recenter ourselves, even for one hour a month, is critical for our own sanity,” she says.

Julia, who owns EVIVE Spas (formerly Spring Beauty Spas), explains that just like we take our cars in for maintenance on a regular basis, we also have to do the same for our bodies. Our bodies are so much more valuable than our cars!

The centers  - located in Millburn, Cranford, Springfield, Hillsborough, and Bedminster, New Jersey, as well as in SoHo, New York - offer massages, facials, waxing, and eyelash extensions, but some have their own additional specialties. For example, the Cranford location has a Himalayan Salt wellness room. The Springfield location offers the ultra-popular head spa, which combines deep cleansing and conditioning with a relaxing head massage to get rid of any product buildup on the scalp while promoting blood circulation to the area.

To begin the relaxation process, the clients can start with massage with hot stones and essential oil enhancements. EVIVE also offers over 20 types of facials, with each customized according to clients’ skin types and needs. EVIVE uses spa products developed by G.M. Collin, a 65-year-old French brand celebrated in the industry for its continuous research and development to improve its suite of skin care products. GM Collin Sea “C” Spa can brighten skin pigmentation, while GM Collin Collagen 90 and Botinol® clinical treatment facials can both dramatically reduce visible lines while hydrating the skin. Another favorite is the Oxygen Facial, which allows a serum to absorb into the skin to provide an intense dose that helps skin stay hydrated, especially during the winter season.

One of EVIVE’s newest offerings in Springfield and SoHo is cosmetic permanent makeup, which uses the newest and most advanced technique in the industry. For example, for eyebrows, the Spas use the Nano Brow technique, which improve the duration of color in the skin along with eliminating downtime after the service compared to microblading. Nano Brows imitate the hair stroke, and fill in the sparse area of the eyebrow. 

In addition to helping clients look and feel their best, Julia’s other mission is to make spa services accessible and affordable for more people. EVIVE Spas often offers promotions and specials on its website, as well as various membership options. Some, like the Gold, offer more advanced and premium services, while the Bronze offers more basic services.
