Elevating the concept of pampering to new heights, the Sweetness Body Polish from Shiffa is one of the most enjoyable body exfoliators I’ve had the pleasure of trying. Excited about the possibility of exposing some skin soonish, this resurfacing and conditioning treatment has been at the top of my priority list of late. Founded in exotic Dubai by Dr. Lamees and impeccably formulated in England, this foreign import blends nature and science harmoniously offering unparalleled luxury.
Heavily focused on the importance of organically sourced botanicals, every Shiffa formula contains at least fifteen active ingredients, all with healing benefits. Aiming to rejuvenate both body and mind, the Sweetness Body Polish delivers outstanding skin care perks with an uplifting sensory experience. Shower and tub friendly, this multi-tasking, fully indulgent scrub rinses easily and leaves behind soft, glowing skin and an intoxicating aroma.
Combining Coconut and Sweet Almond Oil, this Shiffa Body Polish is highly nourishing and feels particularly lush on dry skin. The exfoliation, courtesy of raw Brown Sugar, provides enough friction to help smooth out rough flaky areas without irritation. The exhilarating scent of Frangipani is both alluring and relaxing while Rosemary and Grapefruit Oils balance warm and crisp notes that soothe and revive. Unique and pretty posh, this spa grade exfoliator should come with a velvet rope to put outside the bathroom. It feels very VIP.
The jar, substantial in size, comes with a plastic spatula for a precise application free of mess. Rub a healthy handful into wet skin and enjoy the invigorating jolt of increased circulation and instant radiance. The magical scent lingers long enough to remind you of this insanely decadent experience. I pat myself dry immediately after rinsing and have zero need for a moisturizer. Every inch of your body will feel soft and supple, and the gleam may be alarming. That’s the inner glow everyone’s talking about!
Shiffa isn’t always easy to find, but it’s a brand worth exploring and the splurge, especially whenever you find yourself in London, where the entire range is sold at Selfridges and SpaceNK. Available at select spas in the US (Trump Soho, The Penninsula Beverly Hills, Trump International Properties), the brand is also available at www.shiffa.com and global shipping is available. Shiffa Sweetness Body Polish (200ml) retails for $85 or £45.
