It’s 21 Years of Temple Skincare & Spa! It’s where advanced skin treatments meet the holistic touch in every moment of Beauty, Pampering and Rejuvenation.
In celebrating 21 years in business, Owner and Director Rene Herald says that, “it makes me teary thinking about the journey to what Temple is now. This milestone is a testament to our commitment to providing exceptional skincare and spa services to our clients. We have a strong team and it will only get better and better in the years to come. We couldn’t be more excited!”
How it all started
Temple Skincare & Spa was founded in 2002 by Rene Herald, who had a vision to create a unique beauty spa that combined the high end clinical treatments to rejuvenate every skin concern, with luxurious spa treatments to bring about nurturing and relaxation for clients to escape from their busy lives and rebalance their soul.
Rene continues, “the last 21 years of the Temple Skincare & Spa feels like it has flown by, however, when I actually think back to where, when and how it all started, it feels like a lifetime ago.”
“Coming from humble (perhaps even naive) beginnings, with having absolutely no idea how to even begin running a business and starting with a two-man-band of Sarah and I, soon bringing Mumma Temple on board. I was doing my own marketing artwork in a word document as I had no clue nor money… there were dolphin murals on the walls… solariums everywhere… And I thought it was a great idea to fall pregnant with my first child, Chloe, after only been in business for six months (again naive). I had bad hairstyles but great skincare knowledge and a passion for my craft.”

A Trusted name in Beauty and Luxury Spa Space
For over two decades, the Temple Skincare & Spa has been a trusted name in the skincare and spa industry, having come a long way since its inception, and continuing to evolve and adapt to the ever-changing needs of the Temple Family of clients.
“I can honestly hand on heart, say that the last 21 years have made me humble, honoured, grateful, and also proud of where I see the Temple now. The idea behind Temple Skincare & Spa was to create a space of TRUST. We wanted our clients to be able to TRUST in the fact that each and every experience would be exceptional, TRUST in our integrity and expertise to always offer honest and knowledgeable advice. We aimed to create a culture of FAMILY that welcomes every woman into our Tribe. I always dreamt of having a place where women could trust that they have made the right choice in coming to our space and that each and every time they visited, they left feeling valued and cared for. We understand just how lucky we are at the Temple that our clients have chosen us to spend their hard earned money with; and we are honoured that they have chosen us to Trust. I truly believe we have created this space.”
“Our success over the last 21 years has not come without massive highs and lows as like most other mature businesses. I am very grateful for these lessons and growth opportunities.
“We would not still be in business today, if it was not for each and every client that supports us and is loyal to the temple, and each and every staff member past, and present, that has turned up to work every day with a passion in their heart and an intention to give our clients the very best experience that they deserve.”
It Takes Passion
Rene’s passion for skincare and her commitment to delivering only the highest quality service, products and technologies has been the driving force behind the Temple’s success. Over the past 21 years, Temple Skincare & Spa has built a loyal following of clients who appreciate the spa’s personalized approach to skincare. The spa’s team of experienced therapists and aestheticians takes the time to talk and understand each client’s individual needs and provides skincare treatments that deliver results.
“To my team, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your commitment, loyalty and exceptional service… to our Temple clients, who some of you have been clients for just a year, whilst many others have been there from the very beginning, I thank you from the bottom of my heart.”
The art is in knowing that, “we understand that skincare is not just about looking good, but it’s also about feeling good inside and out. We sincerely care about our clients’ well-being, and this is the magic of what Temple is for our them. We offer a wide range of services that cater to their unique skincare needs, making sure that treatments are customised to each client’s skin and what their goals are. We take pride in our team of experienced and knowledgeable therapists who are passionate about skincare and spa treatments. From facials and body treatments to massages and waxing, we have everything you need to feel refreshed, rejuvenated and cared for,” she adds.

A Huge Milestone
The spa’s reputation for excellence has made it a destination for clients from around the world who are seeking the ultimate in luxury skincare treatments. Over the years, The Temple has received numerous accolades and awards, including the “Salon of the Year” award by the Australian Beauty Industry Awards five times in a row, along with Therapist of the Year awards for the therapists as well. These awards are a testament to our commitment to excellence and our passion for delivering exceptional services. But most of all, Rene says, “we are grateful for our clients who have supported us throughout the years. We value your trust and loyalty, and we promise to continue providing the best skincare and spa services for years to come.”
Service and Value to the Community
Since 2022, Temple Skincare & Spa has also made a point to serve its community. Every year, the Temple Hearts Charity donates and takes part in raising awareness and funding for the Red Cross; Lizzie’s Lunch for Tuberous Sclerosis Complex; the Ward Angels in providing aid and support of sick children and their families; and, The Sanctuary the Hills Women’s Shelter for women struggling with domestic violence.
For Rene, she also often takes time to mentor new up-and-coming salon owners and those who are needing assistance to grow their salon businesses and share the wealth of knowledge and experience she has from the many years in the beauty industry.
