Mi Moneda at Ciaran O'Flynn's

So what's at the top of my Christmas wish list this year...a Mi Moneda! I've spent the last few months humming and hawing over which colour combination to choose, what length of chain would work best with various outfits, and then of course which one of the hundreds of coins to choose from...but that's the beauty of Mi Moneda...versatility! Also, if it's good enough for Halle Berry, Rhianna, Kendall Jenner and our very own Roz Purcell then it's sure as hell good enough for me!

What's even better is the range is available right here on our doorstep at Ciaran O'Flynn Jewellers. Now there are quite a few places around Dungarvan where I've grown to expect great customer service, and the girls in here never disappoint...they went to great trouble to order in earrings for my bridesmaids when I ordered my wedding rings (what seems like an age ago!), but it's those little things that stick to mind. 

 

The Mi Moneda Collection available at Ciaran O'Flynn Jewellers .

 

The chain and coin holder elements are available in a choice of gold, silver or rose, and with various chain lengths and two coin sizes to choose from the finished price really depends on what tickles your fancy. A guide price of €130 will get you started, but I would definitely recommend popping into the girls, tell them your budget and let them show you what your options are.

The O2 Lift Facial at Oceana Day Spa

If there ever was a candidate to try out a facial last week it was me. Baby Ellie is just 5 weeks now, and my skin has all the signs of it... serious bags under my eyes, hugely dehydrated with an added few breakouts here and there...hmmm welcome to mammyhood eh!

When Triona from Oceana Day Spa kindly invited me in to try out 'The O2 Lift' from Image Skincare, I was ready to take the hand and all off her! I had heard a bit on various blogs and media over the last few months about 'The O2 Lift', or as it has been referred to 'The Red Carpet Ready Facial',  so last Thursday morning I headed off  for some well deserved pampering.

 



You can find out more about Image Skincare on their Facebook page.

 

Once inside the doors of Oceana I left all of the late night bottle feeds and dirty nappies behind me and began to drift off whilst Triona began to work her magic. To begin with my skin was thoroughly cleansed, followed by the the application of an enzymatic facial peel which smelt absolutely divine. This was essentially exfoliating my skin and preparing it for the masque. I must say the time Triona spent massaging the peel into my skin and giving a gorgeous neck and shoulder massage seemed to last a lifetime and was super relaxing!

Next came the fun bit...the oxegenated masque was applied, which basically infuses oxegen into the skin to eliminate bacteria and remove toxins. Soon after I began to feel a bubbling like sensation...I found myself explaining this sensation to a friend as like Rice Krispies going snap, crackle & pop, hard to explain but extremely refreshing.

 

Once the masque had been cleansed off Triona applied a serum like product (pure plant stem cell enhancer to be precise) which is full of vitamin C and works to rejuvenate skin and prevent those dreaded signs of aging. Triona then applied a moisturiser, and just before I had to return back to reality I was treated to a head massage. BLISS!

 

Loved how tastefully decorated the treatment rooms at Oceana.

 

I have to say I was impressed...my skin felt so clean and fresh afterwards, and I genuinely felt there was a real glow to it...it would have been great if I was going somewhere that night as my makeup would have went on like a dream! I generally suffer from a lot of redness and have noticed my skin has been less likely to flare up over the last few days...it felt like all the dullness had been exfoliated away.

 

I would 100% recommend treating yourself to 'The O2 Lift', and think it would be ideal just before a big event, (hence the 'Red Carpet Ready' tagline). You can to check Oceana Day Spa's Facebook page for contact details and to keep up to date on all of their latest special offers and recent work.
