The Easter, iconic wellbeing brand Rituals Cosmetics has launched with a unique and luxurious twist to the traditional Easter festivities with their limited-edition Easter eggs. Whether you're savouring a Sunday roast or enjoying an Easter brunch with friends and relatives, surprise your host or loved ones with a token of gratitude that goes beyond the ordinary. Easter signifies a team of renewal and fresh beginnings, and both, The Ritual of Sakura and The Ritual of Karma Easter eggs, align perfectly with this spirit.

The Ritual of Karma is enriched with white tea and lotus flower, designed to help you radiate positivity, serving a reminder to live with good karma and practice kindness. The Ritual of Sakura is inspired by the springtime Japanese Hanami practice of viewing cherry blossoms, reminding us that we should make the most of every moment. Each egg is more than a gift; it's an invitation to experience something new, a small symbol of spring that embodies the essence of the season. These gifts offer a novel and enjoyable twist on the annual Easter egg hunt, creating lasting memories and moments of Joy.

Do pop into Rituals, Bond Street, Chelmsford if you want to pick up an Easter treat!

Paige and Danny O'Donoghue's wedding was bursting with beautiful English blooms in a marquee dressed to the nines at her parent's home. A dream come true! Paige chose a Pronovias mermaid gown. “Ever since I was a little girl, I have always loved mermaid gowns, so I knew I had to try some on.” Paige explains. “My dreams came true when I found the Pronovias 'Aethra' gown. It was the perfected combination of classic yet sexy. It featured a strapless sweetheart plunge neckline and was covered in a sea of three-dimensional flowers and sequins that subtly sparkled in the light.
