Five of the Best Organic Spa Ranges
September is Organic month, and if you care as much about what goes on your skin as what goes into your body (you should) it’s the perfect time to switch up your beauty routine, inspired by some of the world’s best spas. Toni Jones picks her favourite natural products of the moment.
Ila
Can bath salts really bring you inner peace? A scoop of these Himalayan salt crystals will certainly leave you feeling beautifully serene. Spa junkies have been on to Ila for years and the range of skin saviours gets better every season (they’ve even had a Goop endorsement from Gwyneth Paltrow). Available at the most stylish spa addresses around the globe, you can also purchase online.
Highgrove Baby Organic
Originally developed for baby skin this bath and body range from hair guru Daniel Galvin Jr and facialist Alexandra Several is loved by mums too. A seal of approval from the majestic Skibo castle, as well the royal family. If we had to pick a favourite it would be the Baby Organic Bath & Body Oil: a fragrant blend of mandarin and chamomile delicate enough to be applied directly to baby skin.
Ishga
Another Scottish connection, this range of 100% organic skincare uses sustainably harvested seaweed from the Hebrides.
Seaweed is known for its magical detoxifying and anti-ageing properties thanks to its high content of natural anti-oxidants and the five star Blythswood Square spa uses this range for everything from facials to body wraps.
Eminence
Far far away from the Hebrides, Los Angeles is often seen as the home of the super spas and the hottest new beauty trends.
Lately the famous locals are embracing the super healthy vegan lifestyle, and with it natural beauty brand Eminence, whose fans include Megan Fox, Jessica Biel, Ariana Grande and Rose Byrne. This Hungarian beauty brand is only stocked in certified spas.
Neom
Neom’s collection is one of the most comprehensive and delicious organic ranges on the market and has become a hotel favourite for jet set clients wanting some downtime between cities (for me, a Neom candle flickering at reception is an instant sign of a spa I will want to spend a LOT of time in). Founder Nicola Elliott says: “Wellbeing is fundamentally about looking after yourself and feeling the best that you can feel,” and describes their candles as ‘therapeutic treatments’ that release no toxins, just gorgeous, natural oils to help you relax and recharge, wherever you are.
