  • Weird And Wonderful Spa Treatments And Massage - The Guide From Pearl Escapes 2014

    “I'm not really a Spa "goer" one of the reasons is the Menus of services was confusing to me if not viewed by me as sheer nonsense. In addition the few times I did go, having been given a gift certificate or out of boredom, had left me with two or more days of soreness. Pearl Howie in her new book has explains the Menu with a clear and concise index and also gives suggestions on what Treatment may suit your particular needs. With a background in health and wellness and how exercise affects the body Ms. Howie is well suited to this task. She has written a thoughtful, frank and informative book that is also a very enjoyable read. It's so much more than just Spa listings. You will come away feeling as if she was sharing with you personally and will want to read more of her life adventures.”

     

    “I loved the book. I think every reader will have the feeling of oh yes she understands the way I feel about massage and spas & yoga. That is your gift , everyone has the feeling you're talking to them. I sat down to read a little bit at 10am it’s now almost 3pm I did take  a small lunch break.”

  • About Scholl Instant Hard Skin Remover

  • About Sanctuary Warming Charcoal Detox Mask

    “My face felt smoother afterwards.”

     

    “Before: The initial heat element feels very soothing but I’ve had it on for over 12 minutes now and I’ve forgotten it’s on there.  I could quite easily go shopping like this.  It doesn’t pull your face like most other face packs which I hate.  Yes I like.

     

    After: My skin feels so moist and supple.”

     

    “I’m a bit nervous about things that are hot but that was okay for me.  And my skin is really smooth.”
