Eco Chic Ideas for Valentine´s Day

Valentine´s Day is coming up on the 14th, so we thought we´d give you some ideas for you to surprise your loved ones with these eco-chic gift ideas.

Africology has a Candle in a box gift set, made with pure natural fragrances such as: rose and citrus fruits, lavender and eucalyptus, bergamot and coriander, frankincense and murr. You could also try Africology´s Absolute Rose Serum. In mythology the rose has always been associated with the soul or heart – with love, sexuality and our feminine aspect. Traditionally used as a remedy for imbalanced menstruation, PMT, menopausal and sexual difficulties.

During the Second World War it was common for children to be dosed with Rosehip syrup, due to its high Vitamin C and A content. Today it is known to treat dermatitis, rosacea and ageing skin helping to repair collagen and prevent transepidermal water loss.

In modern aromatherapy practice, rose essence is used as a mild anti-depressant and is used to balance emotions and has a balancing effect on the skin during hormonal changes.

Ascension also has a fantastic range of ecofabulous Valentine´s treats to suit every budget, including Tutti Frutti lingerie, made from Fairtrade cotton.

There are so many options out there these days so go on and spoil your loved one´s the ethical and eco way this Valentine´s Day!
