Between extended work-from-home hours, home-based learning, live workouts, and endless online shopping (which then lead to multiple sprints to the door every time a new delivery arrives), who has the time or energy to glam up—let alone go out to get a manicure these days?
Perfect for time-strapped urbanites, busy mums and lazy girls alike is Singapore’s rising supply of on-demand, house call mobile beauty services that deliver spa- and salon-style experiences, all in the comforts of your home. It’s a full suite—from gel manicures, facials and lash lifts to refreshing blowouts and deep tissue massages, some complete with aromatherapy, ambient music and candles for your very own sensorial sanctuary. And the best part, they’re actually not much more expensive than the in-outlet treatments, making them extra convenient and accessible for anyone in need of some pampering me-time.
Here, we round up some of the country’s most popular, on-demand mobile beauty services to book now.
Natureland
Yes, you read that right—Natureland, Singapore’s largest massage brand offers house calls. So even if you can’t run over for those 1am foot reflexology sessions like you used to, you can have them come to you—their latest booking slot is midnight. Their signature 120-minute Ultimate 5-in-1 treatment, from $185, sees one of their 400 licensed therapists combine a 90-minute foot massage with a neck, shoulder and back rub—perfect for those long home desk days—while their 90-minute Tui Na Massage, $148, promises to deeply relax muscle tension, knead away knots, and help increase blood flow to promote healing, stress relief and recovery.
The Outcall Spa
If you’ve two hours to spare, why not pencil in a 120-minute deep tissue massage? Equipped with a host of experienced, certified therapists, The Outcall Spa has been delivering fully immersive spa experiences since 2016, transforming homes and hotel rooms into sensorial sanctuaries complete with all the essentials, from a massage table and sheets, to essential oils and even pots of fresh, ginger tea. Besides their tension-melting Knots Away, $268 (deep tissue) and Stress Begone, $268 (Swedish) massages, couples too, can benefit from the Two-gether massage while expecting and new mummies can book a well-deserved rub down with their pre- and postnatal offerings, which includes a traditional Javanese post-natal massage incorporating lymphatic draining, soothing strokes, binding, and toning and tightening gestures to help expel wind from the tummy after delivery.
Theraply
Having evolved from a beauty salon to a leading health and wellness company over the last 20 years, Theraply remains committed to bringing warm, affordable and premium quality body massages and pregnancy care treatments to every family’s home in Singapore. Their certified therapists, who arrive at your doorstep with beds, organic oils and fresh towels in tow, specialise in pregnancy, postnatal, postpartum and lactation massages, from $126, as well as fertility massages, from $93. Taking extra initiative to provide safe treatments for women trying to conceive, Theraply often collaborates with fertility clinics and specialists in Singapore to tailor massages that help factors associated with poor levels of fertility, like stress, bad lifestyle habits (like excessive alcohol consumption or smoking), blood circulation, or even womb trauma.

They specialise in hair, nails and everything in between, including lash lifts, brow laminations, haircuts and a Reset Facial, from $110, which comes with glorious add-ons like an eye treatment or extended shoulder and hand massage.

And yes, the men, too, can get a Cold Wave Perm from the comforts of home.
AUUM The Honest Nail Spa

Let them bring their holistic approach to beautiful, healthy nails into your home. All of their pampering nail treatments use non-toxic, vegan nail polish like EcoGel, which can then be soaked off with their Aloe Vera Gel Removal, a fast, safe and gentle innovation in the realm of gorgeous gel mani-pedis. On top of talons, they provide waxing services for your underarms, lower arms and lower legs too.

Urban Company is a one-stop shop that brings a full suite of mobile beauty services to your doorstep. This includes classic or gel mani-pedis and four lash treatments including voluminous extensions, from $109, and lash removal, from $10—something many of us desperately need weeks after our last touch up. They even offer adorable nail treatments for children 12 years old and below for $20.
