Kuwait - The spa at Al Corniche Club, the luxury seafront lifestyle, health and fitness club scheduled to open in Kuwait later this year, has entered into an agreement with the world's leading face, body and spa care line Pevonia Botanica (Pevonia) to become the only spa in Kuwait to use and sell Pevonia products.
The arrangement will give health and beauty conscious Kuwaitis and expatriates access to an unrivalled range of products that offer the latest in face and body treatments, including Pevonia's revolutionary slimming programs.
"We are delighted to have partnered with Pevonia to be able to provide our clients with the best skin care currently on the market. Our agreement with Pevonia gives us full access to their product line, featuring over 250 products," said Siobian Clement, Spa Director at Al Corniche Club.
"There is something for everyone and everything, from skin lightening and acne treatments to body toning and moisturizing," she added.
Renowned for partnering only with the most elite spas in the world, such as the spa at the Carlton Tower in London's Knightsbridge and the Bellagio in Las Vegas, as well as being ultra glamour actress Angelina Jolie's product line of choice, Pevonia's agreement with Al Corniche Club marks one of the company's first entries into the Middle East spa sector.
Divided into separate ladies' and men's sections, the spa at Al Corniche Club boasts 16 treatment rooms that are split into distinct spa suites, allowing clients to move freely from one treatment to the next. Clients may add their personal touch by choosing their preferred background music, lighting and aroma to accompany each treatment.
To complement its leading Pevonia line, the spa will offer a number of other skin and spa care brands.
"Our motto is to exceed expectations, so we are always evaluating new trends to ensure that our customers in Kuwait have the same access as celebrity clients the world over," said Ms. Clement, who has worked as cosmetic adviser to a number of Hollywood celebrities.
"Naturally, the same is true for our quality of service. Our recruitment process is meticulous. Only the best of the best become part of the Al Corniche team," she added.
Part of Kuwait's newest and most exclusive private members' club, the spa at Al Corniche Club was designed by award-winning British architect Jean-Paul Blisset, designer of Thailand's Chiva Som Resort (Cond Nast World's Best Spa 2004), and is due to open its doors before the end of the year.
In addition to its world-class spa, the exclusive club, located on Arabian Gulf Street next to the Al Shaab Sea Club, will offer its members extensive exercise facilities, state-of-the art hydro-facilities, including fully equipped thermal suites and two hydro-pools, tennis and squash courts, as well as private beach cabanas, a children's crche, youth center and business meeting venues.
