WHY VINOTHERAPY IS GOING TO DO WONDERS TO YOUR SKIN

Research suggests that the seeds and skin of the grape is full of antioxidants which are  known to restore collagen and reduce wrinkles. It’s no wonder that the rich and the famous have turned to Merlot facials, Sauvignon massages and Chardonnay scrubs to rejuvenate their skin.

BATH, FACIALS AND SCRUBS

Vinotherapy can be applied to skin polishing, wraps or massages.
In a wine bath, patrons soak themselves in the tub of wine mixed with water for about 60 minutes and if results are anything to go by, this bath removes impurities from the skin, increases blood circulation and eventually even helps as an anti-aging process. The wine facial is done using cold wine and is known to cleanse the skin and remove dead cells. Post the facials, a wine mask is applied to brighten the skin and give it a natural glow. It is believed that the facial even helps in tan removal if done over a period of time.

WHITE OR RED?

White wines have properties that can easily deal with dry skin. So, to get rid of itchy, flaky skin, a white wine bath/facial is said to work wonders. But those with acne prone skin are recommended a red wine facial since it is known to reduce inflammation and instantly helps in blemish control.
