Love Is In The Air

Nothing says ‘Happy Valentine’s Day’ more than strawberries, chocolate and flowers. Although it’s wonderful to shower your sweetheart with the usual valentine luxuries, why not add a little creative twist and give them something different this year?
Whether you’re treating your partner (or even yourself!), we have a selection of delectable skin care surprises for every Valentine on your list.
A Floral Valentines Twist
When it comes to Valentine’s Day, you can’t go wrong with flowers and the most popular is of course the gorgeous red rose! As a skin care ingredient, the rose is a real treat for your complexion, rosehip oil in particular, (which comes from the fruit of the rose plant) is packed full of antioxidant vitamin C which improves hydration in the skin while reducing the appearance of fine lines and dark spots. It’s a key ingredient in our Rosehip Triple C+E Firming Oil, making this magical oil the perfect solution for skin concerns caused by glycation and that’s good news for those of us with a sweet tooth!
The Sweet Valentines Twist
Indulge in dessert-like ingredients for Valentine's without having to count calories. Here’s a few of our favourite sweet product ideas:
Chocolate: Here’s a neat twist on yummy chocolate for a special valentine treat and according to scientists, chocolate stimulates the release of endorphins, those natural hormones produced by the brain that generate feelings of pleasure while promoting a sense of wellbeing. You could give the gift of happiness this Valentine’s Day with our Chocolate Mousse Hydration Masque. Infused with skin smoothing cocoa, softening macadamia nut oil and conditioning almond and jojoba oils, this deeply hydrating masque will leave you with an exquisitely soft and supple complexion. It has a rich texture and smells like brownie dough... totally indulgent without the calories!
Strawberries: Not only are these red berries a tasty and romantic treat, they’re also rich in vitamins and nutrients that are incredibly beneficial to the skin. We have a full range of strawberry infused products from serums and masques to skin hydrators and body lotions, choose your favourite from our Strawberry Rhubarb Hyaluronic Collection for full body hydration, plumping and firming of your skin.
Apricot: After an enchanting evening, slip out of your stilettos and into a soothing bath. Add a few drops of Apricot Body Oil for an aromatic, hydrating treatment that will leave your skin feeling irresistibly soft and smooth. For an added dose of romance, spoil your sweetheart with a luxurious massage using this award-winning body oil.
The Perfect Pout!
Finally, what's Valentine's Day without kissable lips? We have a selection of delicious lip care treats to create a healthy and kissworthy pout!
Start with our Marine Flower Lip Serum, with botanical peptides and botanical collagen it plumps the lips and reduces fine lines and wrinkles, helping to smooth the lips ready for your favourite lip balm, gloss or lip colour.
Next apply a lip balm to moisturise and hydrate your lips, there are two to choose from in the Eminence line up: rosehip & Lemongrass Lip Balm SPF15 or Citrus Lip Balm. Both are petroleum free helping to heal and hydrate the lips. Use daily for moisturised, youthful silky smooth lips.
