Vegan beauty at

your fingertips

beauty brands straight to your door

We all know the importance of

drinking enough water during the

height of summer, but how about

rehydrating from the outside in? Head

to Samana Spa at Melia Desert Palm

for a Stone Crop Facial, which uses the

hydrating and healing properties of two

potent succulents – stone crop and aloe

vera – to restore lacklustre skin. Before

your 75-minute facial begins, slip

between Samana’s piping-hot sauna,

steam room and heated stone beds,

and the ice room and cold plunge pool.

This hot-cold tango will improve your

circulation and flush toxins from

your system.
