Celebrate with Diamonds
No, the 125th anniversary stone is not a diamond. Diamonds are for 60th anniversaries – think the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee in 2012. Interestingly enough, diamonds used to represent 75th anniversaries, but this year, in honour of the Fairmont Banff Springs 125th anniversary, the hotel’s Willow Stream Spa has introduced a decadent Diamond Radiance Facial with B. Kamins products because, explains Alicia Charlton, Public Relations Manager for the Banff Springs, “like a 125th anniversary, a diamond facial is a once-in-a-lifetime thing.”

Canadian spa with a European twist
Maybe, maybe not. Once people see the results from having bioactive peptides and amino acids (meant to boost collagen production) slathered on their faces, as well as light-reflecting diamond particles used to minimize the look of fine lines and wrinkles, they might just decide a diamond facial should be a regular thing.
Personally, this writer noticed that days after her Diamond Facial her skin seemed to have a more even, lighter skin tone, without it’s usual redness, so now she is holding her engagement ring to her cheek at regular intervals, though she is aware it may not result in the same thing.

That Willow Stream Diamond Facial sounds amazing…although my engagement ring has a Cognac diamond so I wouldn’t be holding it up to my face and hoping for a match!
