To make this beauty ritual a true moment of bliss, set a relaxing ambiance: soft lighting, gentle warmth, and soothing music.
Keep water at 32-35°C—not too hot. Emulate Cleopatra with a milk bath: add 2 glasses up to 1 liter of whole milk while filling the tub. Rich in lipids, it delivers intense body moisturization. Once full, incorporate essential oils like rose (balancing), jasmine (soothing), geranium (healing), rosewood (softening), or 1-2 spoons of honey (nourishing and healing), premixed with a neutral bath base. Fully immerse to maximize benefits. Cleanse with superfatted soaps or nourishing shower creams. For exfoliation, do it gently beforehand.
Gently wash by hand or with a soapy shower puff, applying it softly to the body. Choose softening superfatted products. Rinse with lukewarm water (32-35°C), then coat damp skin with shea butter before a light rinse—it forms a lasting protective film. Pat dry without rubbing.
Typically, no extra cream is needed. For very dry skin, apply a moisturizer, focusing on rough spots like elbows and knees.
