Be My Valentine

 Stuck for gift ideas this Valentine’s Day? Reds in East Herrington may come to your rescue! Susan Hall delves into the world of romantic retail. As Valentine's Day approaches, the topic of the perfect gift is number one amongst the Reds Team. But if, like many of my staff, you’re lost amongst the world of romantic retail, don’t panic! Top beauty brand Elemis have recently their latest range of new products – the Sp@Home body-care range and the Starlight Collec- tion of fabulous gift sets- the perfect pampering presents for men and women alike.
Sp@Home – designed to bring luxurious spa results into your daily life and totally free of nasties like parabens, artificial colours and silicones is divided into five handy categories to fulfil all your sk- incare desires. Body Exotics includes ten of Elemis’ most indulgent products (like their Frangipani Monoi and Camel- lia Oils) and all smell divine. Body Awaken is all about revi- talising and energising, thanks to invigorating ingredients like thyme, sweet orange and mango; Body Performance is a unisex range designed for body-sculpting, detoxing and fitting into your fitness regime and Body Anti-Ageing is full of collagen-packed products
to keep those wrinkles at bay. However, our favour- ite is the Body Soothing range and, targeted at de-stressing, nourishing and relaxing, I think it will be many oth- ers’ favourite too! Firstly, the range is full of lavender es- sential oils, which is a perfect scent for getting you into that peaceful frame of mind. Sec- ondly, there are lots of really exciting new products to play with – the Quiet Mind Temple Balm is handbag-sized and ideal for keeping in the office and whipping out at particularly hectic moments for a quick soothing rub on your pressure points. Similarly, the Quiet Mind Room Mist is a really light but lovely scent
that infuses its way around the room and makes you feel calmer and more serene with just a few spritzes!
A hot product in the salon, the Elemis Skin Bliss Capsules are an Elemis prod- uct that is sure to create conversation amongst the ladies. Suitable for all skin types, the pack contains thirty day and thirty evening capsules containing a specific serum to be applied daily. The pack acts as a course, dramatically detox- ing polluted skin by removing deep set toxins and repairing the signs of ageing. After the course you will notice a huge change in your skin, with in- creased skin elasticity and youthfulness. The effects will last for up to six months, so this is a great product to use following the party season at the beginning of the new year to detox as you begin your new elemis skin care routine with the other products in the
kit.
As for the guys, of course, Elemis provide an ex- tensive male skincare range but what if the man in ques- tion isn’t the moisturizing type? Well, as an alternative this year, we bring you the wet-shave. A ritual that is proving to be hugely popular, the men who’ve experienced the difference of a professional shave return to the salon time and time again. Using a traditional cut throat razor to shave, our fully trained bar- bers use hot towels to fully open hair follicles and provide a relaxing facial accompanied by Sky Sports- what more could a man ask for? With a huge range of products and services on offer, it’s often difficult to choose that perfect present. No fear- our Valentine’s Gift Vouchers could be the ideal gift for those who want to provide their loved one with the freedom to choose that perfect product or treatment. But, if you’re still unsure about what to choose, feel free to pop in and have a coffee with one of my team. Our fully trained staff can talk you through any of our products or services, meaning that you’re guaran- teed to provide your loved one with a gift they’ll adore.
