Luxury Hammam Essentials:

1. Traditional Moroccan Soap (Beldi) with Argan Oil and Verbena Essential Oil
2. Refreshing Shower Gel, Argan Oil and Verbena Essential Oil, Gentle Exfoliating
3. Refreshing Oil, Moisturizing Semi-Dry Oil, Rich in Argan Oil, Sweet Almond Oil, and Verbena Essential Oil
4. Pure Cosmetic Argan Oil
5. Moroccan Gloves (soak in water while in use)
6. Sponge Loofah

Step 1: 

First, wet your whole body with warm water until your skin feels warm and soft, which will allow your pores to open.

Step 2:

With water off, apply a thin layer of Tamr Henna Moroccan Black Beldi Soap to your body from shoulder to feet using small circular motions. Make sure you fully cover your body in Beldi Soap. Leave the soap on your skin for 5 minutes in a warm bathroom to reap the most benefit from its aroma-therapeutic properties. The argan-rich soap softens, nourishes, pulls toxins out of the skin, and moisturizes the skin.

Step 3:

Wash off all the soap from your body with warm water. Now it’s time to exfoliate. Use the soaked Moroccan Kessa glove and gently scrub your whole body. Make sure the loofa and body are always wet. Rinse the glove often to remove any dead skin that forms.

Step 4: (Optional or When Available)

Scrubbing is followed by washing with warm water and then applying Rhassoul or Ghassoul clay on your skin. Select Rhassoul clay that is rich in natural and high-quality ingredients. Leave it for 5-10 minutes, then rinse with warm water. 

Step 5:

Next, apply the Refreshing Shower Gel – Verbena and use the wet sponge loofah. Your skin will be cleansed, hydrated, and purified while you enjoy the aroma of verbena. The skin will be soft and supple, regaining its natural glow. Rinse well with mild temperature water.

Step 6:

After rinsing, mix a few drops of Pure Cosmetic Argan Oil and apply it to your body for extra hydration and moisture.   For the face, apply a few drops of Pure Cosmetic Argan Oil. This is an excellent moisturizer after a hammam bath.
