For those who love to dazzle at summer parties, The Spa in Dolphin Square is launching a new 23-Carat Gold Facial and Body Ceremony this July 2012.
While gold is always the colour of summer sun and of the festive season, few realise that it is also renowned for its healing and anti-ageing properties. The new treatments will use La Sultane de Saba products enriched with pearl extract, caviar, argan oil and, of course, 23-carat gold to create flawless looking skin.
The Gold Facial Ceremony (£119) which takes 55 to 75 minutes is based on the treasures of ancient time.
For centuries women have cherished the virtues of gold as a true beauty secret. According to legend, Cleopatra applied a gold mask before sleeping, allowing the precious healing balm to sink deep into her skin, to awake with an illuminated, radiant complexion. The ritual uses a silky gold and honey massage balm that acts as a natural facelift, followed by a neck, shoulder and scalp massage with scents of cedar wood and patchouli enfolding the senses. A gold mask is applied to the face containing pearl extract which provides a lifting effect that tightens the skin when applied. The 23-carat gold particles brighten and rejuvenate the cells leaving skin youthful and radiant.
For those seeking even more luxury, the Gold Body Ceremony (£199) consists of a two and a half hour top to toe treatment of gold adornment, allowing the face and body to heal and regenerate. Beginning in the hammam, pores are opened and a gold cleansing ritual is carried out. A full body massage follows using precious oils and gold minerals. Whilst cocooned in an envelopment of gold, an in-depth 60 minute facial takes place, thus exposing the entire body to the healing effects of gold. Your pampering is topped off with an extravagant dusting of gold powder over the face, décolletage, shoulders and arms, leaving you glowing.
De-stress during the busy party season with these golden treatments by The Spa in Dolphin Square, and leave others revelling in your sparkle.
