Eye-Depufng Treatment
Are your eyes red, puffy, and tired from a long day spent
squinting at the screen?
This must-do treatment is highly recommended for you.
Lie down with your feet up and use one of the following treats
to soothe and revitalise those windows to your soul!
Lay thinly sliced cucumber on your eyes.
Apply damp used tea bags or cotton squares dampened with
cool tea onto your eye area
On top of the cucumber or tea compresses, lay an unopened
bag of frozen peas over your eyes. This is an old trick from
plastic surgeons to reduce swelling after eye surgery.
After a good night’s sleep, your eyes will be good as new!
Coffee/Salt Scrub
As we approach winter, so our skin feels the bitterly dry effects.
Our in-spa treatments at Mangwanani incorporate the body
scrub. However, we encourage weekly skin renewal, exfoliating
(desquamating) the skin. This removes dry, dead skin, leaving
the skin regenerated, whilst increasing blood circulation.
• 2 cups coarsely ground coffee
• 1/2 cup raw sugar or sea salt
• 2-3 tablespoons massage oil (such as sunower, jojoba, or
apricot kernel oil)
Mix all ingredients together.
Take a hot shower to moisten your skin and open pores. Using
wide, circular motions, rub the scrub onto your skin with strong,
even pressure. Shower off, pat skin dry. Thereafter apply
Mangwanani’s body butter, for ultimate moisturising of the skin.
