Step 1: In the shower – cleanse, exfoliate and nourish
The shower is the ideal starting point to prepare the skin and hair to receive treatments.
Nourishing body scrub
Exfoliation is a key step in removing dead skin cells, smoothing skin texture, and stimulating cell renewal. The nourishing scrub is applied to damp skin using circular motions, paying particular attention to drier areas.
Results :
-
Smoother and softer skin
-
Improved absorption of moisturizing products

More even skin tone

The nourishing hair mask
While the scrub is working, applying the hair mask to the lengths and ends helps optimize your time in the shower. Enriched with nourishing cocoa-derived ingredients, it helps strengthen the hair fiber, add shine, and keep hair soft and healthy.
Step 2: After showering – moisturize and enhance the skin
After showering, skin is more receptive to treatments. It's the perfect time to apply a nourishing body lotion.
Nourishing body milk
Its fluid texture absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy film. It intensely hydrates, soothes feelings of tightness, and helps maintain soft and comfortable skin throughout the day.
Benefits:
-
Long-lasting hydration
-
Soft, satiny skin
-
Immediate comfort
Step 3: The face – nourish, illuminate and seal in moisture
The ultimate body care routine would not be complete without appropriate facial care, especially after exposure to hot water.
Nourishing face mask with cocoa butter
Rich and comforting, this mask provides intense nourishment and helps revive the skin's natural radiance. Cocoa butter is known for its protective and restorative properties, ideal for skin lacking comfort.
