A traditional cleanse, made restful
African black soap, made from plantain skin, cocoa pod ash, shea and palm oil, has been used for cleansing across West Africa for generations. Our Black Soap and Steam Ritual brings it into a modern spa setting. You begin with warm steam to relax the body and open the skin, followed by a thorough black soap cleanse and a nourishing wrap and moisturiser.
It leaves skin feeling deeply clean, soft and refreshed, and it is a restful treatment in its own right: warm, slow and quiet.
A reset after travel or a hectic week
- Steam to relax and warm the body
- Black soap cleanse applied gently over the skin
