NEOM brings back its sell-out wellbeing boxes with candles, diffusers and skincare – and we’re obsessed

The end of the year is nigh – your calendar is likely starting to ramp up with invites and celebrations, and you’re probably wondering how you’re going to balance work and play. The best way to do so? Carving out time for R&R. Whether it be lighting a candle, a ritualistic skincare routine or a luxurious bath, it’s important to enjoy Me Time during the busiest few months of the year. And when it comes to having some assistance for party season recuperation, you want NEOM's sell-out wellness boxes on your radar. Filled with skincare, home and health goodies, they’re a one-stop shop for spa-like downtime from the comfort of your own home. Last year, NEOM’s wellness boxes sold out pretty quickly, and we anticipate 2025 will be no different. From this year’s line up, our favourite is the Ultimate Calm Box. Featuring products oozing with delicious scents like lavender, sandalwood and vanilla, each item is perfect for cultivating moments of calm. All blended with natural ingredients and de-stressing scents, the seven-piece box is perfect for evenings when your brain feels frazzled. How to create a luxurious bath routine with the Ultimate Calm Box You can set the scene by lighting the Real Luxury Candle, which has decadent notes of jasmine, lavender and sandalwood. “The most glamorous of all NEOM aromas (and in fact the first ever scent) Real Luxury is an overdose of rich jasmine, as if you’ve brushed past an archway heaving with its fully-opened blossoms. A whisper of lavender brings a soul-healing and de-stressing sense of calm, whilst sandalwood a meditative and grounding linger,” says fragrance expert, Alice du Parcq. Good news, then, that six of the products in the wellness box hold the Real Luxury scent. Following lighting the candle, pour a cap of the Real Luxury Bath Foam into running water and soak yourself in it for at least 10 minutes to really feel the de-stressing power. Before turning in for the night, you can slather the Real Luxury Magnesium Body Butter over yourself. Pre-sleep rituals like this are something recommended by the NHS, which states that the mental health benefits of good sleep include boosting our mood, reducing stress and helping with anxiety. What celebrities love NEOM products? Molly-Mae Hague has named the bath foam in the Ultimate Calm Box as one of her favourites for years, saying: “It’s just as important what I put into my bath as it is what I’m putting on after my bath”. She refers to the product as “so calming and relaxing” before bed. Kylie Minogue has been a fan of NEOMA candles since they launched in 2005. Other celebs who have raved about them include Gwyneth Paltrow, Daisy Lowe and Nicole Scherzinger, who loves the Christmas Wish scent in particular as it “smells like the holidays”. What do the reviews say about NEOM? It’s not just some of our favourite celebs who love NEOM products. One review on the website calls shopping with NEOM “an overall luxury experience”, a sentiment shared by many NEOM users who often call out the “beautifully packaged products” and “wonderful fragrances”. Another says “When I buy gifts I know I can always rely on NEOM” - with 7 gorgeous full-size products to choose from, the Ultimate Calm Box is ideal for treating a loved one who is in need of some decadent self-care (or just as a treat for yourself!). We hope you love the products we recommend. We may receive compensation via a service called Linkby when you click on the links in this article. We only collaborate with brands on Linkby that align with our values and develop products that our team approves of. Prices accurate and items in stock at time of publication.

Tensions continue to rise between WNBA players and league officials over pay increase as deadline looms

Tensions continue to rise between WNBA players and league officials over pay increase as deadline looms

Tension is rising in the ongoing labor battle between the WNBA and the union representing the players, with the existing collective bargaining agreement expiring next week and no new deal in sight. And the back-and-forth - with the sides taking shots at the other - ramped up quickly on Tuesday and Wednesday. It started Tuesday morning when NBA Commissioner Adam Silver said he was confident a new deal would get done and that WNBA players would get significant raises. But one of his word choices - when he answered a question about whether WNBA players merit a larger share of that league´s revenues - raised the ire of the union. 'Yes. I mean, I think share isn´t the right way to look at it because there´s so much more revenue in the NBA,' Silver said on NBC's 'Today' 'show. 'I think you should look at absolute numbers in terms of what they're making, and they are going to get a big increase in this cycle of collective bargaining, and they deserve it.' Much of that might have sounded good - except to the Women´s National Basketball Players Association, which shot back Wednesday. 'What the league and teams are really trying to do is not only limit the cost of labor but also contain it through an artificial salary system that isn´t tied to the business the players are building in any real or meaningful way,' WNBPA executive director Terri Carmichael Jackson said in a statement. 'You know it´s bad when the best they say they can do is more of the same: a fixed salary system and a separate revenue sharing plan that only includes a piece of the pie, and pays (the league) back first.' And then the WNBA responded to that, saying it offered an uncapped revenue sharing model that is directly tied to the league´s performance. 'The comprehensive proposals we have made to the players include a revenue sharing component that would result in the players´ compensation increasing as league revenue increases - without any cap on the upside,' the league said in a statement. 'It is frustrating and counterproductive for the union to be making misrepresentations about our proposals while also accusing the league of engaging in delay.' The sides have had meetings over the past few weeks, including once in New York last Thursday according to a person familiar with the situation. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because details about the meeting were not publicly discussed. They are trying to get a deal done before the Oct. 31 deadline. The sides could always choose to extend negotiations, a tactic used the last time the CBA was negotiated in 2019. The players exercised their right to opt out of the current CBA last year with hopes of getting, among other things, increased revenue sharing, higher salaries, improved benefits and a softer salary cap. The WNBA´s offers to this point have clearly not been to the players´ liking, although it is unclear how far apart the sides are in terms of salary parameters. WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert said at this year´s WNBA Finals that the league - like the players - wants a 'transformative deal' done with significant increases to salary and benefits. Tensions already were heightened in the negotiations after union vice president Napheesa Collier criticized the commissioner in a blistering assessment in her exit interview after her Minnesota team was eliminated from the playoffs.
