CRABTREE & EVELYN INTRODUCES NEW CITRON A NATURALLY REFRESHING BATH & BODY CARE RANGE FEATURING HONEY & CORIANDER, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED BY WHOM YOU KNOW

“Explore everything, keep the best” - John Evelyn

Crabtree & Evelyn is proud to announce the introduction of the NEW Citron bath and body care range, featuring extracts of Honey & Coriander.  Whom You Know highly recommends this entire line.  Inspired by a fragrance journey to the sun-kissed Mediterranean where citron, one of the first of all cultivated citrus fruits flourishes, the purest of honey is gathered in the warmth of the day, and peppery coriander is lovingly nurtured in herb gardens, Crabtree & Evelyn has crafted this naturally refreshing and beautifully scented collection.  On a day like today in Manhattan, such a lovely new line from Crabtree & Evelyn is just the thing to brighten your day!  It will take you away to the Mediterranean.

Freshly picked just for you, this botanically based range features natural extracts of lemon, honey, and coriander, as well as nourishing orchard fruits, refining AHAs, purifying herbs, as well as skin conditioning shea butter and evening primrose oil.  Skin is left smooth, supple, and lightly scented with the uplifting notes of Citron lemon, lemon rind and lemon leaf, sweet honey,  juniper and cypress, along with a bite of peppery coriander seed.   At Whom You Know we have tried this and we are entirely impressed.  This brand consistently produces high quality and it has for years.  We have even made one of their spokespeople a Mover and Shaker; see India Hicks's interview:

This refreshingly gentle range is ideal for all skin types and is free of parabens, phthalates, sulfates, nitrosamines, propylene glycol, and mineral oil.

This new Citron range for the body and bath includes five skus:  Skin Cleansing Bath & Shower Gel, Refreshing Body Bar, Skin Smoothing Body Scrub, Skin Quenching Body Lotion and Skin Indulging Body Soufflé.   SRPs range from $10.00-$28.00.  Available January 2010.
