June Jacobs Vanda Orchid & Spa Chakra Short Hills, NJ

June Jacobs, a natural, luxury spa brand of skin and body care using hydrosol technology,recently released a line of body care called Vanda Orchid. The Vanda Orchid is native to Eastern Asia , is one of the rarest species of orchids and it's extract has a plethora of antioxidants and minerals. Oh and it smells really good too.

The collection has 4 products all with the wonderful , sweet, floral Orchid scent.

The Body Balm was my favorite with the Dry Oil a close second. The Body Balm is intensely moisturizing . It's a very thick lotion/balm. It dries quite fast though unlike some heavier balms. The smell is great and does last . The scent is said also, to adjust to the body chemisty of the wearer.

The Dry Oil is a lighter moisturizer, with apricot and sunflower oils, that dries really fast. It also carries a lighter scent. Just a hint of scent and a touch of moisture. Really nice for after shower or as a mid day pick me up.

The Mist and Shower gel round out the line. The Shower gel is detoxifying for the skin and the mist refreshes with a powerful patent pending anti-oxidant blend of white, red and green tea extracts combined with goji berry, pomegranate and grapeseed extracts .

In other June Jacobs new, back in the fall she launched the first of her Spa Chakra facilities at the Hilton Short Hills, NJ. I've not been to the Short Hills Hilton, but years ago a friend worked for their PR company and raved about the high quality and luxury aspect of it. None of that has changed and now the spa is more world class than ever. Short Hills is only 21 miles from Manhattan , near many corporate locations and there is a high end large shopping mall across the highway.
