Relaxation loungers at Lansdowne Place Hotel and Spa, Hove
We were invited to Lansdowne Place for the launch of the Germaine de Capuccini products, which will be used in all treatments at the spa. There was a demonstration of the Germaine de Capuccini Diamond Noir facial; this anti-ageing facial uses stones, crystals and minerals as these are rich in zinc and iron, and help to restore the skin and reduce signs of ageing. The facial is tailored to your skin type, to make sure you get the most out of the treatment. The black diamond mask used during the facial has a cooling, fizzing sensation on the skin – a Good Spa Spy tested some on her hand in the name of research!

There was also a talk from Germaine de Capuccini's Julie McCann about the brand, and the products used in the treatments – including feathers used to waft fragrances around the room and awaken your senses. These fragrances used in treatments are also sold as eau de parfum so you can take the fragrance home with you.The incredibly wide Germaine de Capuccini range includes products and treatments for all skin types and all ages, from bathroom staples such as the Express Make-up Removal Water to the targeted Coffee Sculptor Firming Cream for toning legs, bums and tums!
