In the News

There's nothing better than chocolate truffles and champagne after a long day - or any kind of day. Now you can immerse yourself in these rich indulgences from head to toe thanks to the Éminence Organic Skin Care Divine Chocolate and Champagne Body Ritual at Chi Yu Wellness, based in London, England. This treatment uses our Mimosa Champagne Massage Oil, Chocolate Truffle Body Wrap, and Mimosa Champagne Sugar Scrub to tone, hydrate and firm. EasyLiving, the UK's guide to the very best in beauty finds, said that after this treatment they "floated out, feeling smooth, glowing, and fabulously fragrant". Whoever said that diamonds are a girl's best friend has clearly never tried this combination.

Everyone seems to have summer on the brain these days, including LNE magazine, who share their top products to prepare for humid weather, sun exposure and baring it all in the May issue. They suggest stocking up on our Coconut Age Corrective Moisturizer and Mocha Berry Mineral Illuminator, and we couldn't agree more. With a tropical scent and a light finish, the moisturizer hydrates and soothes during the heat, while our mineral illuminator gives skin a sun-kissed glow without sun exposure. With this duo in your corner, the only thing you'll have to worry about is finding the perfect pair of shades.

Trade your scarves and sweaters for tank tops and flip flops; summer time is only a few weeks away! In their May/June issue, Beauty Salon News, the magazine for UK beauty and nail professionals, includes their favorite products to get you ready to "prepare to bare" this summer. They suggest our Sun Care Starter Kit with 5 travel treats, including Coconut Milk Cleanser, Hibiscus Calendula Recovery Masque, Tomato Sun Cream SPF 16, Tropical Vanilla Sun Cream SPF 32, and soothing Aloe Mint Hydrating Cream Gel. No matter where your summer travels take you, consider this kit your sun care secret weapon.

The next time you're in Malaysia and need a pick-me-up, Shape Magazine recommends a visit to My Beauty Cottage for a Tea Break Facial. This 100% organic professional beauty house exclusively uses Éminence products. Take your pick from Blueberry Bliss Anti-Aging, Stone Crop Restoring, Citrus-C Refreshing or other treatment to be pampered and rejuvenated within the hour. People will ask what exactly you did to look so refreshed so fast.

Sunny skies and sandy beaches mean one thing: bikini season. As if squeezing into itty bitty pieces of fabric isn't enough to stress about, you now have to find ways to repair your skin after hours in the damaging sun. The May issue of Skin Inc. suggests our  Hibiscus Calendula Recovery Masque and Coconut Firming Body Lotion to heal and hydrate. Perfect for cooling and replenishing sun-kissed skin, this duo is just what you need to show off a summer glow. 

Speaking of sunny skies, our Marketing Director Stephanie Baresh appears in the Happenings section, attending an Oscar party in sunny California. Lucky lady!

From cover to cover, American Spa Magazine's May issue is teeming with skin care secrets, and Éminence! For youthful, bright eyes, they recommend our Naseberry Eye Exfoliant with fruit enzymes and honey. With natural retinol alternative, our Neroli Age Corrective Eye Serum was chosen as an editor's pick for erasing fine lines and crow's feet. Flip the page and you'll find features on Éminence spa partners and even a message from our founder, Boldijarre Koronczay. We couldn't be happier for all the buzz!

Whether you like to start your day with toast, eggs or cereal, a wholesome breakfast is important to fuel you through the morning. Our favorite way to break the fast is with a big serving of blueberries and yogurt - served in the shower. Dermascope Magazine seems to agree, as they featured our Soy Blueberry Body Wash in their May issue. Rich in antioxidants, phytonutrients, and vitamin B, it's the perfect way to wake up.

Recently, Éminence got alongside chart-topping artists Down With Webster at Party for the Planet, British Columbia's largest Earth Day celebration. From locally-sourced performers and suppliers to compostable containers, every detail was planned with Mother Nature in mind. A highlight was when this eco-conscious band made thousands of adorning fans swoon from the solar and bike-powered stage.

These guys are as easy on the eyes as they are on the ears, and we help keep them that way with their favorite Éminence products: USDA Shea Butter & Mint Moisture Balm, Stone Crop Gel Wash and Stone Crop Whip Moisturizer. 

 
At Éminence, we believe a happy body equals a happy mind, which ultimately leads to healthy and glowing skin. That's why we offer our employees a wellness program to keep their minds, bodies, and skin in top condition. That probably explains why so many of us are huge fans of Bikram yoga. The hot room creates the perfect pore-opening environment to release waste and toxins embedded deep within the skin.

After a hot and sweaty hour of cobras, warriors, and downward dogs, cleansing and replenishing your skin is a must. Stephanie Baresh, our Marketing Director, shared her best pre- and post-workout skin care products with Bikram Yoga Vancouver. Her picks include the gel wash and moisturizer from our Stone Crop collection, Cornflower Recovery Serum, Clear Skin Probiotic Masque, Lychee & Chestnut Leg Firming Treatment, and Strawberry Rhubarb Dermafoliant. Cleanse, exfoliate, and nourish. Namaste.

People often tell us that our products smell good enough to eat. With natural, organic and wholesome ingredients, we understand the temptation (especially when it comes to our Chocolate Mousse Hydration Masque which could fool anyone into thinking it's a decadent dessert). While they aren't suggesting that you chow down on our skin care products, ONE Style Magazine describes our Sour Cherry Whip Moisturizer and Apricot Body Oil as "skin food; products that use food as ingredients that your skin will thank you for". So go ahead, dive into any of our rich moisturizers, masques and body oils for a little calorie-free indulgence.

Rating luxury hotels and traveling the globe is all in a day's work at Kiwi Collection, the go-to resource for 'people who care where they stay'. Finding the best places to grab some R&R is a top priority, but you want to look good while you're there, right? When traveling to Tofino, Canada's unofficial surfing capital, their blog editor packs our Chai Berry Illuminator to use as a post-surf perk up. Whether you're catching a few waves in Tofino, or lounging with a cocktail at a five-star resort, this organic mineral bronzer with natural sun protection keeps you looking and feeling like you're, well...on vacation!

With only 24 hours in a day, balancing work, family, and the 10,000 other things in your life means that your sleep suffers and stress level rises. In the midst of building her new home and taking care of her newborn baby, Elevate reader Leigh Fenwick was constantly tired - and looked it. To rejuvenate her skin, she now uses our Coconut Firming Body Lotion and Coconut Age Corrective Moisturizer in her daily skin regime. These products breathe new life into a drab, dull and exhausted complexion. And with their amazing tropical scent, Elevate Magazine says they are "a much needed vacation in a jar". Bon voyage!

Spirituality and Health Magazine make an excellent point in their May/June issue. While we eat, drink and even feed our pets organic ingredients, we often overlook our largest organ and "carelessly coat ourselves with chemicals". Heed their organic wake-up call and start paying attention to labels and what goes into the products you use every day. Naturally, they recommend our Herbal Recovery Oil and Cornflower Recovery Serum from our Beyond Organic Collection, which are the only Demeter certified products in the world. Find out for yourself what biodynamic ingredients can do for your skin.

Here are the top 5 reasons to massage with our Citron Age-Defying Massage Soufflé (as if you really need an excuse, but just go with it):

1. Skin Inc. says you should.
2. Avocado and zesty lemon firms your skin from forehead to chin.
3. With the help of  Zirhafirm, an age-defying botanical blend, a facial massage can provide visible, targeted skin care results.
4. To get summer-ready skin with this toning, nutrient-rich formula.
5. It feels heavenly. 

Last weekend, the Éminence team participated in 28th Annual Vancouver Sun Run, which promotes healthy living and helps support elite amateur athletes. With nearly 50,000 participants, the Sun Run is the largest 10 kilometer race in Canada, and the second largest in the world. The winning time was 29:13, which was just a few seconds ahead of our athletic bunch...okay not quite, but they gave it their all and finished with personal best times. Way to go everyone - we couldn't be prouder of our Éminence athletes!

Vanity Fair stays in the green this month, lending another blog post to the best eco-friendly products that nourish your skin while preserving the planet. With April all about protecting Mother Earth, we understand why they suggested picking up an Éminence Beyond Organic Gift Box. With age-defying results and nature's purest ingredients, you'll definitely score big points with the one you give it to. Come to think of it, give yourself the gift! As Vanity Fair says, it's a hot look. Green is totally your color.

What's the best way to start and end your day? With Éminence, of course!

Which is exactly what Ray Magazine told their readers in a recent issue. They suggested making our Stone Crop Collection part of your daily skin care regime. Step 1: Lather up with our Stone Crop Gel Wash to give skin a thorough cleanse. Step 2: Finish off with our nutrient-rich Stone Crop Whip Moisturizer. Result? Radiant skin! We couldn't agree more.

It's no surprise that eco-conscious consumers are driving the demand for organic skin care. Just like the Hungarians who founded the practices we use at Éminence, people around the globe are starting to question what they put on their skin and the effects on their bodies. Thankfully, spas are taking notice and stocking organic and sustainable skin care that is good for you and the planet. UK magazine Spa Secrets dedicates an article in their April issue to this growing movement, naming Éminence Organic Skin Care one of the most popular facial and massage brands at Chapel Spa, Cheltenham.
