Therapie’s Himalayan Detox Bath Salts, Winner – Best Bath Salts, 2013 Beauty Shortlist Awards (March 15)
If 2012 was the Year of Looking Younger, will 2013 be the Year of Looking Well? (Young is one thing…well is another).
2013 is shaping up to be the year beauty and wellbeing become inextricably linked, so which products will headlining? Stress-less, deep sleep and aromatherapy-centric collections look set for a stellar year, so cue product launches that will delve deeper into the feel-good-smell-good aromatherapy zone. Products that can tackle anxiety and insomnia – two of the biggest health saboteurs in our mad, squeezed, rush-rush world – will probably do particularly well, to help us cope with modern living and life’s unpredictability.
So here’s the new Therapie 5-piece capsule collection by Michelle Roques-O’Neil. Named one of the Top 10 aromatherapists in the world by VOGUE, Cult Beauty calls her Himalayan Detox Bath Salts “a natural version of Valium”, Sunday Times Style mag gave them “5 Stars”, Grazia loves them and Kate Shapland at The Telegraph described them as “wonderfully refreshing and therapeutic”.
I tried Therapie’s Himalayan Detox Bath Salts (full ingredients below) on a bitterly cold Saturday night. After a 15 minute soak, I barely made it to the bedroom in time to hit the pillow. A few pages later, my book slid off the duvet and the next thing I knew Sunday had arrived.
If you’re tempted to try Therapie, Michelle’s Discover Me Kit contains every product in the collection except for her new Love Candle, launched earlier this year. You get a mini glossy black jar of those ‘sleep well’ salts and all of the impressive (and natural) product ingredients are clearly listed on her website. Her Discover Me Kit is the next best thing to a session with Michelle herself and it’s the perfect antidote to “never having enough time”, to help you or someone you love slow down a little.
You can also discover the Discover Me Kit at Cult Beauty where you’ll find Michelle’s top tips to help you rebalance and reboost after what feels like an endless winter. “Warning, some users may find these too relaxing” DISCOVER ME KIT £40.
“My products are easy to navigate, easy to use and genuinely therapeutic. Balancing the mind and helping the body to release tensions, they free us to experience life as less stressful …and more magical.” – Michelle Roques- O’Neil
