While in New York over the summer, I was mindlessly gazing out of a cab window while stuck in traffic only to realise we were right in front of somewhere very special. The iconic Elizabeth Arden red door was relatively inconspicuous amongst the Manhattan hustle and bustle, but I knew behind those statement panels was a world of pampering that I just wanted to taste; I?d never been so excited to spot a door frame (and probably never will again.) Until now the only way you could experience Elizabeth Arden professional treatments was if you jumped on a plane to JFK, but as of this week that?s all about to change. For the first time in a decade (since their Mayfair spa closed) the famous Red Door Spa is opening its doors in the heart of the capital; the new flagship counter in Debenhams Oxford Street will offer speed services (which include Oxygen Blast facials and pampering hand massages,) as well as a luxury treatment room which will exclusively provide the professional facial services found only in The Red Door Spas across America.
Boasting treatments that include microdermabrasion, hot stones, enzyme exfoliation and LED facials, the mini spa also uses Elizabeth Arden professional skincare which cannot be found or bought anywhere else. If you?re a fan of the brand, have always wanted to step through that iconic red door, or simply love a bit of pampering, then this hot new destination is definitely one you?ll want to check out.
