Aishti day spa uses Dr Burgener Swiss innovations to take the glorious grape back to its pure origins, using products made from Champagne grapes to give Danielle el Chemaly's skin some fizz and pop.
What's the process?
You start with a body scrub made from a Chardonnay extract - based on Chardonnay grapes, rich in Vitamin E, which are used to create Laurent-Perrier champagne Ultra Brut. When not being fermented for the bottle, the grapes gave an antioxidant and anti-aging effect. They're usually used on the face, but thanks to Aishti you're lucky enough to use them to pamper your entire body. The scrub is applied with a special movement to remove all the dead cells from your skin, giving a relaxing and tonifying sensation.
The scrub is followed by a wrap with Champagne and black orchids, known for their long-lasting beautifying qualities - kind of what you expect for the body after 45 minutes wrapped in a plastic bag and a warm blanket to open your pores and let the skin benefit from all the vitamins. During the procedure, a head or foot massage is offered for 20 minutes. After washing up with only warm water to leave all the essentials in your body, a champagne massage is done with Chardonnay seed oil. The cherry on top of all this is a complementary champagne glass with strawberries.
