Experience the healing hands of Africa with new Imbali hand scrub

Our hands are used to receive and give to others. We show love, affection and respect with our open hands. There is a hand ritual in Africa that involves cleansing, exfoliating and massaging the hands and then blessing them for all that they have done. This ritual improves circulation and leaves hands feeling soft and smooth. The spiritual significance being to reflect and centre as consideration is given to the consequences of our actions.

Take care of your spirit and your skin with the new refining hand scrub from African body care range, Imbali. This gentle, exfoliating hand scrub with green rooibos and organic honeybush, cleans and softens skin on hands and elbows. Fine apricot kernels work to remove dead skin cells and impurities whilst green rooibos and organic honeybush have a soothing effect on the skin. Hands are left feeling pampered and nourished. For best results, follow with Imbali Hand and Nail treatment and take time out to consider what you have given and received.

Unfermented green rooibos and organic honeybush are both rich in antioxidants which are recognised for their free radical fighting and anti-ageing properties. As the hands are one of the first parts of the body to show the signs of ageing, these natural ingredients have been included to help improve the long term appearance of the skin.

Imbali products can be purchased from selected Pick n Pay and Spar stores in the Cape and from Pick n Pay Hypermarket stores nationallly. For further information or details of your nearest stockist, please contact: info@imbalibodycare.com or visit: www.imbalibodycare.com

Green Rooibos - Going Green

Everyone is talking about "going green" and more green teas are being drunk by healthy consumers the world over. Rooibos or "red bush" tea is now also available in "green", but how can red be green?

Instead of being allowed to ferment for long periods of time, as with normal rooibos, no fermentation takes place and the leaves and stems are rolled and dried directly. The green format of rooibos tea has higher levels of the originally occurring anti-oxidants than fermented rooibos.

Rooibos (Aspalathus Linearis) is endemic to South Africa and grows only in the Cedarberg region of the Cape. It is a traditional, local remedy used by the Khoi people as a general health tonic and to calm nerves. Rooibos is naturally caffeine free and contains aspalathin which is rich in anti-oxidants that fight free radicals to help prevent ageing. Rooibos extract also contains zinc and alpha hydroxy acid which promote healthy skin. Rooibos has a soothing effect on the skin and has been used to treat eczema and other skin irritations.

Green rooibos extract is blended with Aloe Ferox in Imbali hand and nail treatment to create a deeply rich moisturising cream to soften and nourish dry hands and cuticles. Especially good for sensitive skin.

Rooibos, the healing herb.

African Summer Toes

Prepare your feet for an African summer with foot care treatment products from Imbali.

Introducing the new Smoothing Foot Scrub with mint, seaweed and pumice to exfoliate, moisturise and revitalise feet. Natural pumice grains work to remove rough skin whilst softening seaweed extract helps to hydrate dry skin, revealing softer, smoother feet. Mint is a popular traditional medicine with cooling and refreshing properties.

Tips for the perfect home pedicure:
Begin by soaking feet in warm water to cleanse and soften skin and nails. Dry feet thoroughly, particularly between the toes - then follow with treatment steps 1 and 2:

Step 1: Slough away dead skin and callouses with Imbali Smoothing Foot Scrub. Regular exfoliation will leave feet feeling fresh and smooth and also aids with circulation in the feet. Rinse feet, pat dry, trim nails if required and follow with Step 2.

Step 2: Massage Imbali Foot Repair Cream into feet until absorbed. The soothing and moisturising benefits of mint and seaweed will leave skin feeling soft and smooth. For best results use daily, paying special attention to heels. Finish with nail polish if desired.

Imbali products are inspired by the healing traditions of Africa and formulated with local plant oils and extracts recognised for their beneficial properties.
