Spa in a Box
Wednesday
When your best friend (let’s call her Bridezilla) phones you in hysterics because her wedding is a no-go, you’ll need to unearth a present that delivers the gift of calm. We recommend the Pure Hapa Spalicious Gift Box ($65; purehapa.com), a five-piece kit that boasts an array of all-natural Hawaiian ingredients and therapeutic antioxidants that have been used by Asian women for centuries. The Haupia Orange Souffle Body Cream, a fragrant blend of sweet-orange essential oil and chamomile and papaya extracts, provides a cooling sensation and skin-firming effects. The Hawaiian Essential Facial Serum is packed with noni fruit and green-tea extracts, as well as vitamins A,C, and E, to protect against free radicals and improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. When the Sweet Pineapple Sugar Cream is rubbed into the skin, pineapple extracts, shea butter, and pro-vitamins B5 and E work together to moisturize and bestow natural anti-aging benefits. The Sweet Papaya Facial Exfoliant deep cleans pores with Azuki bean powder and jojoba beads, while macadamia-nut oil moisturizes without a greasy residue. And the Hanalei Sweet and Sour Sugarcane Body Scrub includes brown sugar to slough dead cells and soften the skin’s texture. Of course, you’ll want to keep the kit for yourself, so the easiest solution is to buy them in duplicate. Think of it as a gift to yourself for being such a supportive friend.
