As children, my sister and I would entertain ourselves on rainy Sunday afternoons by making our own perfumes. Generally simple formulas of soap chips and water, we imagined our bathroom apothecary to be the source of magical and unique fragrances.
How jealous I am of the Jaqua sisters, for turning this sisterly bonding fantasy into their adult reality! Originally in the spa and entertainment industries, the sisters banded together to form Jaqua, a line of decadent and luxe bath and body products.
Jaqua Beauty has recently introduced the Pink Potion collection, which includes a Sinfully Rich Cocoa Body Butter ($22), Shower Creme ($18), Luscious Lotion ($16) and Hand Creme ($8). Pink Potion is currently available on the Jaqua website, and will be available in stores September 2007. A portion of the proceeds of every sale from this line will be donated to Breast Cancer research.
How to describe the scent in a way you can appreciate it online… Close your eyes. Imagine being asked a very strange question: "What does the color pink SMELL like?" The scent your mind will concoct as an answer is exactly how Pink Potion smells. The notes used include jasmine, tuberose, clove and Indian Mimosa. The result is decidedly sweet, a bit flowery, and oh-so girlie.
Jaqua’s customer list is a veritable who’s who of Hollywood. Proving one thing– Jaqua Pink Potion is the perfect (yet reasonably priced) gift for the woman who has EVERYTHING.
Retailers include Ulta, Planet Beauty, and the Jaqua website.
