What a busy start to 2012 we have had! InStyle Magazine's annual Best Beauty Buys are the “Oscars” of the Beauty industry and I am pleased to tell you that we have won, again! Our Deep Relax Bath & Shower Oil was awarded with the title of 'Best Bath Oil – you can find it crowned with the Best Beauty Buy award on the shelves of all our spas and retail spaces, including our new Knightsbridge Boutique. The last few weeks we've seen the full effects of winter, albeit a little late! Snow, wind and a lingering chill in the air has really put skin through its paces. To help keep skin in top condition, and protect from the ongoing cold temperatures, I suggest layering with a serum, face oil and moisturiser to give it an intensive treatment that will deliver immediate benefits. Not only does this help maintain the health, condition and radiance of the skin, but it also helps to protect it from further external damage. Serums are fantastic for a lighter weight layer of moisture and I would advise all clients to use one, followed by a layer of oil and then, depending on your skin condition, a moisturiser, for a deeply intensive treatment. For older skins, I recommend our Instant Skin Firming Serum, which contains larch, marine algae and pomegranate seed oil to help restore radiance and gently plump the skin. For younger skins, our balancing Mattifying Skin Serum will help keep blemishes at bay while giving it the moisture boost it needs, or apply our Rose Radiance Skin Serum to help increase circulation and add radiance. For the second layer, a face oil provides that all important deep layer of nourishment, so it’s worth investing in - our Nourishing Face Oil is a great one to try and includes rose oil to promote radiance and cell renewal. The final layer should be a rich cream, to lock in all that goodness. A three-step, fail-safe, approach to beautifully healthy, nourished, radiant skin. When it comes to bodycare, the 'layering' approach works equally as well. Our super nourishing Enrich bodycare range helps to restore lost moisture; leaving it silky smooth with a healthy glow- you’ll notice an immediate difference in the quality and radiance of your skin. Do take some time to make the most of the colder, darker evenings as Spring approaches, to really spend some time getting your skin healthy.
