The Wahanda Blog

Adding to our Wahanda wall of fame this month are six lucky ladies that came up trumps in October’s Sanctuary spa competition. With all of our competitions now receiving thousands of entries at a time, being announced as a Wahanda winner is no mean feat. Picked entirely at random, our latest Wahanda winners come from all over the UK, with one of the top prize winners residing in sunny Lancashire - but when there’s such a treat in store, show us someone who wouldn’t be willing to travel to the famous southern spa.

In case you missed what was on offer, we had two super-duper spa days up for grabs for two champs and their friends, whilst four runners-up received goodie bags overflowing with the coveted Sanctuary products. Already fans of the spa brand’s boutique range, they’re a welcome gift in winner Wilbur’s house, while Boonbetty is a lover of the Spa Essentials body lotion and foaming bath soak. IrisD (pictured) on the other hand has only heard of the product range in the past year so can’t wait to get her mitts on the goodies.

But Iris isn’t the only one that’s not had the chance to experience such spa delights, one of our first prize winners – LauraJ has never even been to a spa, or tried a treatment, so we’re hoping this will be the first of many. Treatments she’s keen to try out include a massage, facial and a session in a floatation tank, but most of all she’s hoping Wahanda will help her find a much-needed dose of relaxation. We couldn’t think of a better starting point than a spa day at The Sanctuary!

Someone else who could give her a few tips and pointers is runner-up Calliope who last visited Thermae Spa in Bath and The Hair Inn in Bangor, and is a sucker for a facial. Also no stranger to life in the spa lane is Wilbur who recently took a trip to Life Spa in Ealing, while Boonbetty even tries to get in a spot of spa-ing when she’s on her jollidays and last visited the Club Armonia Hotel in Turgutreis - all proof that Wahanda welcomes everyone from spa virgins to self-proclaimed wellness warriors.

If you want to be in with a chance of winning an indulgent Wahanda prize, make sure you keep checking back for our latest and greatest competitions. Right now we’ve got Champneys spa days and pamper packages up for the taking and you’ve got until the end of November to enter - miss it, miss out.

Everyone loves Elemis, so we weren’t surprised that entries kept flooding in for our fabulous SpaPod competition. All hopefuls had to do for a ticket in the draw was sign up to our monthly newsletter - featuring all the latest and greatest news and information and expert tips in health, beauty and wellness, delivered direct to your inbox each month, it was always a win-win situation.

But, there could only be one winner. Actually, who made up that rule? Wahanda said let there be two winners! And so there was, along with a couple of runners-up. We’re too generous for our own good here. Wahanda’s first prize winners won an unbelievable Elemis SpaPod experience in the location of their choice whilst the two runners-up bagged themselves an Elemis goodie bag each,  bursting with indulgent products.

First prize winner Lucie and runner-up Rockettine are already avid Elemis fans. Lucie uses their skin and body care range and Rockettine’s love stems from a birthday gift. “I was given the Elemis Maximum Moisture Day Cream for my birthday and I absolutely love it. It is the perfect finish for my facial procedure in the morning and it feels like getting a beauty treatment every day.”

You may have seen that last month our two Rose Ritual winners had a common link – they both had a penchant for headwear, and this month we’ve also noticed a common thread that links our winners – when asked what their ‘can’t-live-without’ beauty product was- ‘mascara and lipgloss’ came out on top!

With no plans to skimp on the pampering, these girls have the right idea and it seems the Elemis SpaPod is just the start of their relaxation rituals…

“My sister and I will be taking our mum to Spa 6 in the Cotswolds for a girly day out in October. We’ve booked the full package including an aroma massage, a facial treatment, manicure and pedicure.” Says Rockettine, whilst runner-up CazzaC is now planning a spa day with her best friend.

As for our first prize winners – once her SpaPod treatment is over, next on the list is full body massage, and as for poor SarahS – she’s currently studying for lots of exams, so next on her list is a nice relaxing massage to ‘de-stress’ her. We have a feeling our Elemis SpaPod giveaway may be able to help. It’s good to give.
