Indulge yourself

Crabtree & Evelyn just went through a major redesign at South Coast Plaza, and it's celebrating by hosting a Day of Indulgence on Saturday. It's the best day to experience the world of Crabtree & Evelyn by trying its new fragrances and body care, like its antioxidant rich pomegranate and argan and grapeseed oils collection.

The entire line is formulated without chemicals that health enthusiasts like to avoid, including sodium lauryl sulphate, parabens, phthlates, mineral oil and propylene glycol.

You can also indulge in a complimentary hand care ritual. Be one of the first 30 guests to arrive and you'll receive a travel-size soap, gel or lotion. And receive a Special Hand Care Gift (a $42-value) with a $75 purchase.

The brand has a long history of focusing on natural and wellness products that elevate daily rituals. Its original fragrances are made with fruit, flower and plant essences. Also choose from fine soaps, luxurious toiletries, gourmet foods and gifts.

The store is open from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Friday; 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday; and 11 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Sunday. For more information, call (714) 546-3056, or visit http://www.crabtree-evelyn.com.
