Luxury in May: From 5-star Mother’s Day staycation to striking new EGG sound creations, our pick of what’s hot this month
Check out the latest releases from luxury French skincare range La Prairie, upmarket Swiss jeweller Van Cleef & Arpels, French menswear brand Berluti, Malaysian developer KSK Land and high-end British speaker manufacturer KEF
There’s something for everyone from among these latest luxury offerings.
Relaxing staycation
For anyone wanting to treat their mother to something special on Mother’s Day, the options are limited this year. A spot of pampering at a glamorous overseas destination spa is going to be a tough one to pull off – but fortunately, a staycation package at one of Hong Kong’s top hotels and spas offers a pretty good alternative.
The Landmark Mandarin Oriental’s Oasis Indulgence for Mom, which is available until the end of May, features a 24-hour stay at the five-star hotel, in addition to spa and F&B credits. Other benefits include a room upgrade, a one-way limousine transfer, champagne, breakfast for two adults and one child, a 25 per cent discount at the hotel’s restaurants and bars, including two-Michelin star Amber, and an Aromatherapy Associates wellness kit. For those who book suites, they will have access to the Landmark Bespoke Salon. Show your love to Mum with the well-earned relaxation.
Brightening vision
La Prairie, the Swiss luxury skincare that focuses on illuminating science, has launched the new White Caviar Eye Extraordinaire.
The eye cream is designed to reduce dark circles around the eyes. It is enriched with the molecule Lumidose, which boosts the reflective properties of the skin and inhibits tyrosinase, the enzyme responsible for melanin production.
The eye cream also features Golden Caviar Extract for increasing the production of collagen. Apart from La Prairie’s luxurious packaging, there is the bonus of a ceramic pearl roller tool for soothing and de-puffing the eye area.
