5 Cosmetics To Buy Your Girlfriend This Christmas

At Riverbanks Clinic, we understand just how important it is to get your girlfriend something extra special at Christmas time. So we’ve put together a list of suggestions for the five items that we think you should buy your girlfriend this Christmas!

ONE: Professional Skin Care Products
A woman that takes pride in her appearance knows that feeling good and looking great starts with the skin, the largest organ on the body. The trouble is that there’s so many skin care products on the market, it’s hard to tell the junk from the jewels.

Take our advice and take a look at these professional skincare kits. You can buy an intro kit, which will allow her to test the effects before committing to the full range. If she really likes the way this clever Christmas gift enhances her appearance, then you'll have a clue about what to get her for her birthday!

TWO: The Eyes Have It!
They say that they eyes are the windows to the soul and when a woman starts to get self conscious about her appearance, it’s often about the fine lines and wrinkles around her eyes. Now, be cautious, because you don’t want to hurt her feelings, but if she thinks she’d benefit from a little help around the eyes, then we’ve got a really snazzy range of eye serum products that will restore vital moisture to the eye area, reduce the appearance of fine lines and help to smooth out those wrinkles.

THREE: Luscious Lips
As part of our Mineral Make Up range, we have some sexy lip glosses in a selection of 14 different shades, so you can choose something that suits your girlfriend’s personality! But that’s not all, if your girlfriend is all about the lips, we’ve got Youngblood lip pencils, lip shine and lip sticks in 20 different shades. Let’s face it, with a bit of lippy at Xmas, you can’t go wrong!

FOUR: Marvelous Moisturiser
If you’re looking for a stocking filler that will light up her face, then you can’t go far wrong with a high quality, professional moisturiser. Our range of Priori and Vitage age defying moisturisers are perfectly suited to every day use, night time and as a hand and body lotion with built in sun protection.

FIVE: Gift Vouchers - With a Difference!
No one needs reminding that they’re getting older. But as our bodies mature, we start wishing that Mother Nature would hear our plea and turn back the clock. Well, we all know that’s not possible, but what is possible is a little bit of help - if she’s been talking about ‘getting a bit of work done’ and she’s not too sensitive to accept your assistance, why not give her some gift vouchers from Riverbanks Clinic. She can choose how she uses them, but if she’s been dreaming of some cosmetic treatment or professional skin care products, this will be the gift she’ll truly remember this Christmas.

Simon Cowell - Waxing or laser?

Much has been made in the newspapers recently of Simon Cowell's seemingly hair free hands and upper chest area.

A man renowned for being pretty hairy, it's not surprising that it was noticed, the only real surprise is how surprised everyone was - this is the man who regularly has Botox, teeth whitening and other beauty treatments, so getting rid of excess hair was only a matter of time.

It does make our eyes water though at the thought of him getting those hairs removed by waxing - we're not knocking waxing but whichever way you look at it, it's gotta hurt!

We're hoping he went down the painless laser hair removal route - no pain, longer lasting results, and most importantly, no stubbly regrowth!

At Riverbanks Clinic we're regularly treating men for unwanted and excess hair, with fantastic results - you can see some of our before and after pictures as well as a great video on our painless laser hair removal page. Also have a look at our laser hair removal special offers.

And Simon, if it was waxing and you want to try a better way, give us a call ;)
