Today’s blog post is a bit of a mixed bag. I’m going to be telling you all about a fabulous new skincare range from the ladies who brought you pregnancy skincare range, Mama Mio, as well as introduce you to the new premises of one of my favourite spas in Joburg! So, without further ado here’s why you simply must try the brand new Mio Skincare range, and why you simply must check out the newly revamped Sherbet Angel in Parkhurst!
So what do Mio and Sherbet Angel have in common? Well, you might recall that I reviewed Sherbet Angel (a haven for pregnant ladies, mommies and anyone who needs a good pamper session) about a year or more ago and recently I returned to this fabulous spa to try out the new Mio products, whilst also scoping out their brand spanking new premises in Parkhurst. Sherbet Angel is still located on the super popular Fourth Avenue Parkhurst strip but this year they have moved to bigger and better premises across the road. Their new space is too beautiful for words and the treatment rooms offer so much more space than before. The new design and decor of the spot is also stunning and I love that they now have more mani and pedi stations where you can get pampered with your girlfriends! They have also added some incredible new treatments to the menu and increased their opening times – they’re even open on Sundays for additional pampering time! Take a look at some of the photos below to see their fabulous new look.
While I was at Sherbet Angel I was treated to an incredible Mio Get Waisted treatment – a slimming treatment of note that helps you get rid of excess fat cells as well as toxins that cause bloating. The treatment utilises a range of products including Mio’s amazing Get Waisted cream. The Get Waisted cream is pure genius in a bottle and can also be used at home to tighten and firm skin on any area of your body that needs a bit of a nip and a tuck. After an hour of rigorous massage and a body wrap I was amazed at how many centimetres I had lost – I measured a good 4 – 5 centimetres straight after the treatment (most of which was water loss I’m sure) and for a few days my jeans were a little bit looser and I just felt more toned and fit. Of course you will also get much better results from the treatment if you buy a course of six treatments. The Mio Get Waisted treatment is R850 for an hour session and a course of six treatments for R4250.
I also got the chance to try some of the other fabulous Mio products and fell in love with them. My most favourite products are the Boob Tube+multi-action bust firmer and the Workout Wonder invigorating muscle gel. Boob Tube does wonders for tightening and firming the skin in your bust and décolleté area, and I noticed a definite difference in the way my skin felt after using it twice a day for a few weeks. The Workout Wonder is also the best muscle relief gel in the history of ever and gave me some much needed relief after intense workouts at Bodytec. It instantly soothes muscles and helps relieve that painful burn you get a day or two after hitting the gym. Both products were in the Mio Fit Skin Kit which included a 30 ml bottle of Boob Tube+, 30 ml tube of The Activist firming active body oil and 30 ml bottle of Workout Wonder invigorating muscle motivating gel. The Mio Fit Skin Kit (R650) is a great starter pack for those just starting out with Mio as it gives you the products you need to boost the way your skin looks and feels.
The Mio range also includes body butters, bath soaks, serums and more and all the products are available for purchase to use at home in your daily beauty routine. You can pick up your favourite Mio products from Sherbet Angel and a few other stockists in Joburg.
