MAC Spa: The Hidden Gem of Calumpit, Loved by Our Diverse Expat Ladies
When it comes to beauty and wellness, finding the right place that caters to your unique needs can feel like discovering a hidden gem.
Enter MAC Spa, located within the tranquil La Residencia Residences at Villares Commercial, Calumpit. This wellness sanctuary is not only a local favorite but has also become a must-visit for our diverse expat ladies’ group from the USA—and for good reason!
Our recent wellness trip, made up of multi-diverse skin type women 60+ years old -and also 70+ were in the group as well, and MAC was an absolute hit!
Whether it was facials, raccoon eye treatments (like my mother got -so effective!), or waxing, every woman in our group—whether white, black, or brown—found their needs met with care and expertise. It’s rare to find a spa in the Philippines that not only welcomes women of all colors but also specializes in treatments designed specifically for Black and Brown skin tones, all without pushing the skin-whitening agenda so prevalent in many beauty spots. MAC Spa is changing the game, providing services that enhance beauty naturally and inclusively.
The experience was made even more memorable by the friendly, professional staff, who delivered exceptional service from the moment we walked in. They made sure we felt pampered and well taken care of, no matter our skin type or wellness needs. MAC Spa’s dedication to its clients’ unique beauty journeys is a refreshing change that’s truly trailblazing.
In a time when beauty is evolving, particularly with Morena beauty icons like Chelsea Anne Manalo, Miss Universe Philippines, redefining Filipino beauty standards, MAC Spa stands as a proud advocate for embracing natural skin tones. This shift is empowering women, especially expats, to feel confident and cared for without altering their natural beauty.
MAC Spa is also incredibly expat-friendly—super convenient for us international visitors. They accept international bank credit cards, so there’s no hassle when it comes to payment, making it a breeze for travelers and residents alike.
The First-Ever Water Facial
One of the most intriguing experiences was the Water Facial, a treatment using real water! This innovative facial was like nothing we’d ever seen before. It involved a soothing, rejuvenating cleanse using pure water to hydrate and brighten the skin. It was such a refreshing change from typical treatments, leaving our skin feeling deeply moisturized, refreshed, and with a natural glow. This facial truly stood out, offering a unique approach to skincare that we’re still raving about.
A “Whitening” Bed, Not a Tanning Bed!
Another surprising sight was the “Whitening” Bed—not to be confused with a tanning bed. This futuristic bed is designed for those who do want skin-lightening treatments in a safe, controlled way. While many in our group loved that MAC Spa focused on celebrating natural skin tones, we were equally fascinated by this high-tech service for those looking for even skin tone or specific brightening treatments. The “whitening” bed is another example of the spa’s innovation and dedication to offering diverse options for all beauty needs.
