Oriental Body Glow

For the invigorating rather than relaxing route to soft skin, this traditional Thai body scrub IS the way forward. It is on the menu at the The Oriental Spa, Bangkok and the Banyan Tree Spa Phuket.

Ingredients:

1 cup runny honey

1/2 cup sesame seeds

sprinkling dried herbs: lavender leaf, mint (which makes the mixture turn dark)

Steps:

1. Mix the ingredients together and rub the thick, sticky paste over your body.

Take your time so that the skin properly exfoliates and make the most of the sweet aroma reminiscent of that childhood smell of cooking caramel.

2. Shower .The whole process takes about half an hour.
