..... Click the link for more information. . loofahor luffaAny of six species of annual climbing vines, also called vegetable sponge or sponge gourd, that make up the genus Luffa in the gourd family, native to the Old World tropics. Two species cultivated in temperate areas (L. acutangula and L. aegyptiaca) produce 1-ft (30-cm) cucumber-shaped fruits. Edible and greenish when young, these fruits become straw-coloured with age. On removal of the skin, pulp, and seeds, there remains a complex of closely netted vascular bundles (food- and water-carrying tubes) that resembles a sponge in texture. This spongelike product is used for bathing, for washing dishes, and as an industrial fibre. How to thank TFD for its existence?

No references found | This is why, when presented with an invitation to review the spa of the Four Seasons Hotel Cairo at the First Residence, I opted for the Egyptian Loofah Scrub body treatment. Although there are many items that the spa uses, here are a few basics: - Anti-oxidant toners, cleansers, and moisturizers - Your favorite loofah - Bath Brush (preferably the ones with the long handles) - Bath Salts - Spring Water (preferably with lemon) - Essential Oils Usage All of these things play a vital role in creating your spa experience at spa place, as these are the basic things (more or less) that they use in the traditional spa. This is followed by a loofah body polish that will leave the skin feeling fragrant, fresh and silky to the touch. |
