Citrus-Inspired Spa Treatments
You drink it and eat it, but did you know that California-grown citrus is an effective and popular ingredient for re-energizing the spirit?
Let the vibrant colours, invigorating scents, refreshing taste and the soothing essential oils of oranges and lemons, give you a full sensory experience. To do this right, Sunkist along with Stillwater Spa Toronto, offer you two, do-it-yourself citrus-inspired spa treatments for your hands and feet:
Lemon Hand Scrub:
In a bowl, mix two tablespoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice and ½ cup of raw sugar. Then, soak your hands in a different bowl filled with very warm water filled and lemon slices for 10 minutes. After soaking, scrub the mixture all over your hands. To finish, remove the mixture using warm water and apply a heavy lotion to moisturize. Your hands will thank you.
