.How to get there
It was by coincidence that I was made aware of Eva Bogner's cosmetic studio. Walking along the Gärtnerplatz, it took one glance through the window to pique my curiosity. I've actually been looking for a small but sweet studio that offers professional services at reasonable prices for a while now, somewhere I can pop in now and then for a last-minute manicure without having to book an entire spa treatment.
I decided to give it a try, and just a few days later I found myself literally putting my hands in those of the Gärtnerplatz cosmetic experts- and was anything but disappointed! On the contrary, the charming and professional reception gave me a good feeling about my experiment right from the start. It only makes sense, I think, examining the absolutely perfect resulting manicure, that a number of devoted regulars make the extra trip from Salzburg and Zürich for this kind of service.
Not only women make up the fan base of this beauty institution, but a growing number of men as well. The four-person nails & beauty Team offers the entire manicure, pedicure, and decadent signature facial treatment program, as well as massages, For Him as well. In addition to the classic manicure, shellac coating, eyelash lengthening, and waxing belong to their range of services.
In all matters skin-related, Eva Bogner's specialist team uses Gertrud Gruber’s first-class line of treatments exclusively, a line that counts itself among the Grand Dames of the cosmetic world. Gruber's "beauty farm" on Lake Tegernsee was the first of its kind in Europe and remains up and running to this day. Admittedly, I cannot yet attest to the long-term effects of the products, but alone the fragrant scent of lemon balm and orange blossoms radiating from my hands during the treatment has convinced me of its positive immediate effect.
Today's proprietress at the studio also happened to come in for the first time as an "accidental customer." She was so thrilled at the state and condition of the place, the photo editor took over herself a short while later. I get the impression that because she came from a different industry and retained the perspective of a customer with only high expectations (as well as her sense of aesthetic), her studio evolved into exactly what I was looking for: the perfect destination for regular, professional treatments in a high-class environment, at prices that allow this little luxury to be enjoyed more than once in a blue moon…
