You can get things such as massage, facials, tanning, electrolysis, vein threading, body wraps, Brazilian waxing (oh-er!), achne treatment, beard trimming, mens shaving,foot scrubs (particularly divine!), pedicures, manicures...ok I think you get the picture!

The foot scrub and pedicures are great, as is the Swedish massage and they're great at the tanning too! The staff are lovely and chatty and the feel of the place is clean and relaxing! Love love love it!

Also, while the staff sometimes look intimidatingly glamorous, I've always found them really helpful and friendly, and it is the perfect place to go when you want a treat or Boots is stressing you out. It's girly- Saturday heaven!

Everyone's heard of Space NK, right? Well, by far the most interesting thing about it is that the…read morefounder and face of the company, Nicky Kinnard, is a Northern Irish girl! How cool is that? She opened up her first store in Covent Garden years ago and now has shops all over the world. I'm always a fan when something global turns out to be homegrown... Plus, I love this shop. From the outside, it looks like it would be the type of shop in which you'd be judged by what you're wearing, but it couldn't be farther from that. Yes, the products are all pretty high end, but the girls who work there are always on hand to give you some advice, wrap your purchase beautifully for you and send you on your merry way again!

Carrickfergus now has two branches of this little shop, World of Colour (I believe there is another…read moreone in Ballyclare too) - they have a great selection of makeup, nail polish, toiletries and perfumes. They also have useful hints and tips on the shelves, stating whether this product is a good replacement for well known, more expensive brands. I got the W7 concealer which is better than Touche Eclat, and less than half the price! They also sell my favorite brand of foundation for £2 cheaper than anywhere else. To top it off the staff are extremely friendly, helpful and knowledgeable, and they also offer a loyalty scheme.

They sell a range of brand name products for a great discount price. They also sell lots of brand perfume as well as imitation ones which smell exactly like the real deal. Brands include; Benefit, Clarins, Nivea etc. Your basic make up ranges all at discount price, great! I could spend all day in here smelling all the pretty scents and testing out all the samples of make up but I would probably end up looking like some nut job from a loony bin, so I'll resist and call in every now and again.

They…read morehave a ton of great products and gift sets in a wide variety of scents and formulations for men, women, and baby....candles, other home fragrance products, body washes, shampoos and conditioners, soaps, bubble bath...the list goes on. The store is so beautiful and it's also great for kids-they have a large window in the back where you can actually see into the factory and I believe you can make your own candles there. In back they also have large bins with a ton of mini products-perfect for travel or for small gifts to bring home for friends and loved ones. We got married on Arran and had their soaps as our wedding favors and everyone loved them just as much as I do! My mom is a big fan of the foot smoother bar with apricot seeds, mint, and coriander as it's a great exfoliator. My favorite product is the Rosemary and Sage bath soak. It may seem a little weird as a bubble bath scent but once you pour it into the hot water the scent is beautiful and beyond relaxing...I love it so much that I've had it shipped to the states when I run out! Great place to shop for fabulously scented goodies on Arran!

Another problem area can be the display baskets at the entrance, but provded you watch out you'll avoid bumping into them. For more space and more choice, the one outside the centre is ideal, but the one insideis good if you are in a hurry and justwant to pop in for something quickly. Watch out at Christmas time for gift sets and gift items which are often good value.
