What’s included in the full experience
CHay
Our ceremonial Chay tea embodies a delicate balance of minerals, peptides, collagen-boosting herbs, anti-inflammatory botanicals, and adaptogenic wonders like ashwagandha and schisandra.
HAMMAM
Our soap paste will condition your skin, bringing suppleness and sensuality into the practice of cleansing your body. Ancient soap making techniques, such as those practiced in the Turkish Hammam, have inherently sustainable aspects that resonate with modern environmental values.
KESSA
This ancient exfoliation method has stood the test of time, proven to unveil your skin's natural radiance by unclogging pores and promoting faster cell renewal. Revel in the immediate results of smoother, softer skin without the need for harsh chemicals, while also enhancing the performance of your moisturizer for a truly indulgent skincare experience.
SILLAGE
Sillage in perfumery is the lingering trail of scent a perfume leaves in the air. Gressa Sillage, a luxurious post-Hammam skincare essential, offers a harmonious blend of opulence and sensory delight. This elegant body milk tones the skin, delicately scented with Neroli for its aromatherapeutic benefits, provides the perfect hydration to damp skin, ensuring a moment of indulgence.
ATTAR
The crowning jewel in our Art of Bathing ceremony, we unveil Attar—an exquisite anointing body oil crafted for those who seek true luxury in their skincare routine. This opulent blend marries the luscious notes of raspberry and cranberry seed oils in a harmonious dance with the grounding embrace of Vetiver, while the transcendent essences of Sandalwood, Rose Attar, and Jasmine weave a tapestry of timeless elegance.
The Experience
Indulge in the ultimate bath house experience with the Gressa Art of Bathing Full Experience.
Preliminary to the bathing experience, boil a pot of water to prepare your beauty Chay. Measure out a tablespoon of the organic herb blend and cover with 12 oz of water. Steep for 8-10 minutes. Enjoy by itself or with a teaspoon of honey once the temperature of the water has cooled off a bit.
- Step into luxury:
Begin by creating a haven in your bathtub or shower, allowing steam to fill the air and envelop your senses. Achieve maximum steaminess by closing doors and letting hot water flow for 2 to 3 minutes. - Nourish your skin:
Once enveloped in warm mist, initiate your Hammam ritual with the Hammam Conditioning Soap Paste. Apply it generously to skin, allowing its natural, plant-based formula to prepare and soften. This traditional paste, crafted through meticulous soap cooking, lathers upon contact with water, paving the way for a gentle yet profound exfoliation. Ideal for body and face, excluding sensitive areas prone to sensitivity. - Revitalize with gentle exfoliation:
Next, employ the Kessa glove to delicately exfoliate in circular motions. Designed for both face and body, this glove respects the skin barrier while effectively removing toxins and dead skin cells, unveiling a newfound radiance. - Hydrate and nourish:
Upon completing your ritual, emerge and apply Sillage, akin to a body toner, imbued with enriching emollients and a hydrating blend of neroli and exotic citrus notes. - Seal in moisture:
Complete your journey with Attar anointing body oil. Massage this luxurious blend lovingly into your entire body, ensuring every inch absorbs its nourishing embrace. Savor the moment:
Enhance your post-ritual tranquility with a sip of Chay, offering serenity and presence, elevating your moment of bliss.
Embrace transformation:
Commit to this transformative ritual weekly to witness your skin transcend from lackluster to luminous and sensual, regardless of the season.
