Brand Talk with Jacqueline Fernandez

Jacqueline, we all know about your association with the 'The Body Shop'. Tell us something about its latest range.
'The Body Shop's new product that ranges from 'Skin, Spa and Scent' embraces nature in its raw and fresh form. It brings alive the essentials from across the globe into our lives with naturally inspired products that play on our senses. The intensely nourishing 'Oils of Life' is my latest obsession; the ultra-light texture leaves skin soft and supple without being greasy or sticky. And for my daily pampering, I choose 'The Spa of the World', the perfect rejuvenation for everyday indulgence.

Talking about spas, considering your busy schedule, how do you rejuvenate?
Due to my hectic work schedules, it is very important to pamper myself occasionally. Unfortunately, I do not get enough time to visit spa often. But, now, with 'The Body Shop's 'Spa of the World' collection, I can change my bathroom to world's best spa. Whenever I am feeling stressed and tense, I can run a hot bath, light some candles and fast track to relaxation with 'The Body Shop's spa rituals. There are three at home spa rituals that they offer: Relaxing, Revitalizing and Blissful. I am sure you will definitely experience the rejuvenation of body and mind.

Everyone's raving about 'Oils of Life' and 'The Spa of the World'. What has been your personal experience with them?
I absolutely love the range of 'Oils of Life'. It's my latest obsession. The facial hair oil from the 'Oils of Life' range is my personal favourite. We love the dance facial work out too. It's so innovative. We always work out for our body. But, now, I have realised the importance of facial workout too. The products of 'Oils of Life' are light weight, and so it blends beautifully in to the skin. I am also captivated by all the products in the 'Spa of The World' collection. The ingredients are of very high quality and provide a beautiful and indulgent experience.

What are your forthcoming films?
I have Housefull 3, Dishoom and A Flying Jatt. I am super excited about all my upcoming projects.
