Give pure relaxation and serenity with a Gift of Comfort. This gift set contains Aveda’s limited edition Candrima Creme Cleansing Oil, Body Polish and Body Moisturizer. Candrima means “moonlight” in Sanskrit, and it’s an appropriate name for the lily and moon-white blossoms that are among the ingredients. The limited-edition scent is also crafted from certified organic ginger and ginger lily and is warm, soothing and inviting.

Using organic sesame and coconut oils, the Creme Cleansing Oil gently cleanses and softens. The Body Polish smooths away dead surface cells and reveals fresh, new skin. The Body Moisturizer, made with organic shea butter and certified organic sesame and coconut oils, seals in moisture.

Try Something New

Don’t leave yourself off your list. Now is the perfect time to grab a treat for you. Here are two of our new faves:

Texture Tonic

It’s not hard to see why the beachy wave has practically become iconic. Create it in minutes on wet or dry hair with Aveda’s Texture Tonic. This is similar to the salt sprays you’re familiar with, but has a second important ingredient: certified organic sugarcane. The salt gives hair a piece-y, defined look, while the sugar provides touchable texture and shine.

Tulasara Renew Morning Creme

Inspired by the morning yoga ritual, Aveda’s new Tulasara Renew Morning Creme brightens skin instantly. Using naturally-derived luminizers, it creates a radiant glow while licorice root and molasses reduce the appearance of dark spots over time. It smooths fine lines while visibly firming and lifting skin. Ginger, vitamin E and rice bran protect against environmental aggressors.

Finish 2017 strong—in both shopping and style. If you want to stop in, sniff and sample these products or others, come on into Mint on the Avenue Salon and get your Aveda on!
