Daphne Seligmann Hagadone, one of New York’s top beauty and
skin-care experts, renowned aesthetician and healer specializes
in the area of skin allergies and inflammation. She has dedicated
more than ten years to developing skin-care treatments and
product lines that help heal, balance and nurture healthy skin.
Daphne specializes in a "Holistic approach to skin maintenance –
a discipline that incorporates nutrition, lifestyle modification,
and natural products achieving "overall wellness"
and a balance in the skin.

Daphne’s mission: "My goal has always been to give women a
sense of well-being through a beauty program based on natural
healing with pure plant essences. As an aromatherapist, I work
with the purest botanical oils to achieve maximum results. Looking and feeling good is all about the link between inner and outer beauty." Beauty, she believes, has to do with the entire person – a philosophy that centers on health and balance.

Her approach is designed to build the skin’s own natural defenses through curative plant oils that are of the highest quality. Working with sensitive skin is her specialty. Her product line, Belle Fee, has a unique combination of balancing ingredients and moisture enhancers that nourish and revitalize the skin. Daphne, who is a passionate clear-skin guru, demands that her clients stay away from obsessive high-tech treatments and harsh, chemical based skin-care formulas. She recommends gentle cleansing, therapeutic facials and lymphatic drainage massage to restore and balance the skin.

Daphne studied aromatherapy and biochemistry in France, Belgium and Israel. She comes from a family of biologists, scientists and herbalists. Notions of herbal remedies have been passed on to her from prior generations. Unlike western medicine, her practice is focused on all-natural based plant essences. Daphne has designed a program based on essential oils that penetrate the skin to treat problems from sensitive to over production of sebum. "Essential oils are highly complex, they must be pure and blended properly to achieve results", says Daphne. "The White Rose oil, for example, helps soothe and re-hydrate sensitive skin, and Lavender balances and moisturizes." Daphne also has created facial mist sprays made from the essential oils of Lavender, Rose and Chamomile – favorites of Uma Thurman and Janeane Garofalo.

In 2004, Daphne opened a private office in midtown Manhattan to work with her clients on a more personal level. This oasis of calm in a hectic city is guaranteed to give an instant lift to the spirit. Drawing on Daphne’s unrivalled knowledge and experience, the aim is to de-stress, detox and improve the overall appearance of the skin, as well as provide effective health and beauty solutions .

Daphne, who lives with her husband and daughter in New York City, loves the friendly, creative spirit found in Manhattan. A "healer" by nature, her methods reflect her warm, spiritual persona, making a treatment with her soothing for both the body and soul.
