When the warm days return and the fabrics become lighter, the skin is naturally revealed. It’s the time when we seek more lightness, softness… and that oh-so-pleasant sensation of perfectly smooth skin.
Hair removal then becomes a true care ritual, both aesthetic and sensory. But to ensure this act remains a moment of comfort, certain treatments are essential.
At Les Sens de Marrakech, we believe that a successful beauty ritual always begins with gentle preparation… and ends with a soothing gesture that envelops both skin and senses.
Preparing the epidermis before waxing, then nourishing and calming it afterward, not only helps maintain the skin’s softness, but also prevents redness, tightness, and small irritations.
A few simple steps, combined with the richness of Moroccan-inspired skincare, are enough to transform this moment into a true wellness experience.
Exfoliation: a key step for perfectly prepared skin
Before each waxing session, preparing the skin is an essential step—too often overlooked. A suitable scrub does more than remove dead skin cells: it also prevents ingrown hairs and enhances the smoothness of the result.
At Les Sens de Marrakech, two precious treatments stand out to elevate this ritual: Desert Sand Scrub and Exfoliating Cream.
The Desert Sand Scrub, enriched with argan oil and formulated with fine natural sand, purifies the skin while nourishing it gently. Its creamy texture transforms with massage, encouraging circular movements that stimulate microcirculation and revitalize the epidermis. Ideal for legs, arms, or rougher areas like the knees, this treatment combines effectiveness with sensory pleasure. Its subtle scent instantly evokes the soothing and warm atmosphere of an Oriental escape, turning this step into a true ritual of well-being.
For sensitive skin or delicate areas—underarms, bikini line—the Exfoliating Cream offers gentler exfoliation, leaving skin supple, soothed, and perfectly prepared for waxing, without any irritation.
We recommend exfoliating once or twice a week in the days leading up to hair removal, to prepare the skin deeply without aggression.
This ritual, inspired by ancestral Moroccan traditions, combines care, respect for the skin, and sensory awakening, for exceptional results.
Hair removal: a precise act combining care and caution
Whether done with wax, an electric epilator, or threading, hair removal places real demands on the skin. Even when properly performed, it causes mild inflammation and temporarily weakens the skin’s protective barrier. This temporary vulnerability makes the skin more sensitive to external aggressions, highlighting the importance of careful, precise gestures during the process.
It is therefore essential to always wax clean, thoroughly dry skin to minimize the risk of irritation or infection. Similarly, the use of alcohol-based products before and after waxing should be avoided, as they can dry out the skin and intensify discomfort.
Taking your time during waxing is another key factor: too fast or aggressive a gesture increases redness and may leave the skin feeling tight for an extended period. By adopting a calm, respectful rhythm, you help preserve the skin’s health while offering it a moment of care.
After the session, the skin may react with slight tingling, diffuse redness, or a tight sensation. These temporary signs reflect the strain the skin has just endured. That’s why using a suitable post-wax treatment, rich in soothing and hydrating ingredients, is essential. It helps calm reactions, restore the skin barrier, and extend the feeling of comfort, leaving the skin soothed, soft, and beautifully radiant.
A ritual of serenity and nourishment after waxing
Once waxing is complete, comes the gentlest moment: hydration and soothing. To support this essential step, Les Sens de Marrakech offers a selection of exceptional treatments designed to pamper the skin with care.
- Oriental Milk, rich in argan oil and natural extracts, deeply hydrates the skin while leaving a satin, non-greasy finish. Ideal for generous application on legs, arms, or the whole body, it enhances the skin after waxing.
- Milk flakes, with its light and fluid texture, is a real breath of freshness for overheated skin. Its soothing formula immediately relieves tightness and restores comfort without weighing down the epidermis.
- For the most sensitive or dry areas, Oriental Delight acts as a cocooning care. Ultra-nourishing and delicately scented, it softens the skin, restores suppleness, and prolongs the sensation of well-being, making each application a precious moment after waxing.
In the end, the beauty of summer skin doesn’t stop at hair removal itself—it fully expresses itself through the care given to every step that accompanies it. Prepare, soothe, nourish… these simple stages turn an often-dreaded routine into a true sensory ritual. Thanks to the rich textures, delicate fragrances, and effective formulas of Les Sens de Marrakech, waxing becomes an invitation to self-care, in softness and serenity.
