The abrasive texture of pumice makes it the ultimate exfoliator to gently remove calloused skin.

Take the time to enjoy a therapeutic foot spa at home with our Pink or Rose Bath Salts. Light an Aromatherapy Candle or still your mind with an Aromatherapy Eye Pillow while your feet are soaking. If you don't have the time to soak your feet regularly, just use the pumice stone after showering when your skin is softest.

After soaking your feet for 10-15 minutes wet the pumice stone and gently rub it over your heels using a circular motion. Pat your feet dry and follow with a deeply nourishing Lotion Bar. To further allow the moisturiser to soak in, put a pair of socks on for an hour. Repeat your foot spa once a week for a month and we guarantee you will see a dramatic difference in the appearance of your heels.

Clean your Pumice Stone using a brush to scrub all sides and rinse well in warm water. For a deep clean you can boil your pumice stone for five minutes and then allow it to air dry.

Your pumice stone will wear down over time, if it becomes too small, smooth, or soft, it’s time to replace it.

Price is per Pumice Stone.

Once introduced to water they soften and have a scrubby texture.

Loofah sponges are also known as the ‘Sponge Gourd’ and the ‘Egyptian Cucumber’ and originate from India, where they still grow naturally. Once the fruit has matured the fibrous vascular tissue is harvested and dried to become a Loofah Sponge.

Rinse and squeeze out your Loofah Sponge after each use and allow to dry, either by hanging or storing on a free draining soap dish. We also recommend soaking it for 5 minutes in baking soda and warm water once a week.

]]> Directions

To use your loofah sponge, first wet with warm water to soften it. You can then apply a small amount of soap or body scrub if desired. Using a gentle but firm circular motion, scrub your body starting below your neck and working your way down to your ankles.

Storage

Rinse and squeeze out your Loofah Sponge after each use and allow to dry, either by hanging or storing on a free draining soap dish. We also recommend soaking it for 5 minutes in baking soda and warm water once a week.

They are handcrafted in gorgeous floral fabric designs and filled with a mixture of Botanicals, Essential Oils and Brown Rice.

The blend of Botanicals comprise of Rose, Calendula & Cornflower Petals, Rose Hip, Lavender Rubbings, Lemon Balm and Jasmine Green Tea. Essential Oils of Rose Geranium, Lavender, Ylang Ylang & Bergamot add calming and relaxing aromatherapy properties.

Brown rice adds weight to the eye pillow and means you can gently fit it to the contours of your face, so the pillow completely blocks out any light. Blocking out visual stimulus sends a message to your brain that it is time for your mind to be still.

The sensation of light pressure resting on your eyelids is quite simply the most incredible feeling. It is believed to trigger the Vagus Nerve, creating a reflex that lowers your heart rate and regulates your mood, and releases a neurological signal that gives your body and mind permission to relax.

Available in a range of gorgeous colours and as a Gift Set, complimented with an Anoint Shea Butter Soap.
