Ayurvedic treats, cell renewal, refreshing treatments, and rejuvenating products - it's spring and a time to refresh, recharge and renew!


Spray It On
CREATE texture, sculpt hair or add contrast and shine effects - L'Oréal Professionnel's new Sprax - Spray Wax is a hairdresser's magic tool! Whether it's curls you want to create, just tease your hair or have a slick sleek back effect, Sprax let's you do it with the greatest ease. Its foamy texture ensures homogenous diffusion on the hair. Apply it either directly or spray it on your hands first and then run through your hair - Sprax combines all the uses of wax without the hassles.

Dior Chaude
TWO make-up must-haves this season, if you want your dressing table designer-fied! DiorSkin Fluide Fond de Teint Osmose with SPF 12 and the DiorSkin Compact give you a finish that won't need any airbrushing! The fluide lets your skin breathe and is easy to use because of its water-in-silicone formula. Optimax, an active complex derived with hydro-balancing properties, is derived from an Australian desert plant that has the power to rebalance osmotic exchanges between skin cells to maintain moisture flow. Vitamin E is an added bonus thrown in!

The Compact boasts an SPF 20, has a formula that contains botanical oil Limnanthes Alba that forms a moisturising film on the surface of your skin, and a sebum-absorbing agent coated in amino acids which helps control shine without drying. Flawless finish, is what you see!

Take A Skin Lift
THE SK II range is creating a storm with its anti-ageing products. The De-Wrinkle Active, Signs Treatment, Signs Treatment Concentrate, Facial Lift Emulsion all work at rebuilding your skin's moisture system. Plumping up your skin, normalising skin metabolism, erasing fine lines and whitening are some of the actions of this range of products. However, the range is not yet available in India.
