Noel Asmar Uniforms has expanded its collection to incorporate a greater range of sizes. The spa and hospitality uniform manufacturer now offers sizes 3XL-5XL.

The company says the signature spa material it uses features four way stretch to provide the best fit for every body type.

Recently, Noel Asmar Uniforms has entered into a formal relationship with WTS International and the Woodhouse Spa Group – two well-known spa companies based in the US. WTS will choose from a range of fashion-forward designs for the top-tier spas it manages.

Enveloping night cream by Phytomer

Phytomer has launched an ‘ultra-comfortable’ enveloping cream. Based on the synergy of two marine ingredients, HydraSea Night Plumping Rich Cream has been created to provide optimum skin hydration during the night. Using the company’s concept of ‘hydrafusion’, the cream includes a high concentrate of red algae, furcellaria lumbricalis, which is hydrolysed by a green method and then made into a complex with marine minerals. This ingredient blends into the epidermis to provide the skin with a moisturising infusion – it’s designed to plump up and hydrate the epidermis from its deepest layers right up to the surface.
