As soon as you’ve arrived at Talise Spa at the idyllic Jumeirah Messilah Beach Hotel & Spa, you instantly know that the scene is set for an absolutely relaxing and indulgent experience. There’s nothing that’s not to love about Talise Spa. It’s the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday stressors and slow down to discover beauty practices that are as old as time. Natural, and completely luxurious at the same time—this is what you will experience once you’ve tried one of Talise’s exquisite treatments using Kosmé Paris’s products.
Exclusively stocked at Talise Spa, Kosmé Paris has found its perfect home in Kuwait. You can either luxuriate in an incredible massage experience using any of the ethical beauty range’s body oils, or recreate the same Spa experience within the comfort of your own home by purchasing any of the products before you leave the spa.
It seems that the concept of ethical, slow beauty is a trend that is taking flight. After all, we all want to consume products that not only work, but also make us feel good about ourselves when we come to use them. We like knowing that we’ve helped a family living in a far away and exotic destination by purchasing one of their products. But long before the trend, there has been avid entrepreneurs who constantly wanted to elevate the standard of the beauty industry, without compromising on their brand’s ethical standards.
An early adopter of ethical beauty is Kosmé Paris founder Sophie Allouche, who has been passionate about this ever since her earlier days working in the cosmetics industry, specializing in sourcing organic raw materials for her department. She realized that true bounty and beauty can be found in nature, and more importantly, how many companies take the term ‘organic’ for granted. She writes on the official Kosmé Paris website, “organic botanical oils were not used and not concentrated enough in the products to provide real benefits.”
As a result, she decided to create her own cosmetic brand that employed the best botanical oils from all over the world. For Sophie, Kosmé Paris was founded out of a desire to bridge together the notion of luxury with natural beauty.
Perhaps what we love the most about Kosmé Paris is the brand’s commitment and enduring respect for the environment. Not only does the high-end brand of skin and body care products utilize the power of the natural assets of the plant world and its enriching textures, Kosmé Paris also works with a wide network of small artisanal botanists and producers from all over the world. Rather than go after mainstream producers, Kosmé will focus on the small Moroccan family extracting Argan oil using traditional, environmentally friendly practices that are considered outdated when compared to the practices of modern agriculture.
“Whenever classic, handmade practices are automated, we frequently see a negative impact on either the environment, or on the actual artisans working so hard to naturally source a precious ingredient in the safest way possible,” says visiting practitioner and Kosmé Paris representative Cecile, “this is why we prefer to source ingredients that are derived from organic agricultural practices whenever and wherever possible.”
The result? A modern, research-based approach to beauty which yields a skin and body care range that respects the skin’s natural balance. Kosmé Paris’s products to not contain any petrochemical additives or harmful minerals, and they are also preservative, silicone, and paraben free.
You can find a variety of Kosmé Paris product lines at Talise Spa at Jumeirah Messilah Beach Hotel & Spa. From their legendary anti-aging serum prepared with prickly pear seed oil that is cultivated on the plateaus of Morocco, rose germanium essential oil and acai berry oil, aromatic and sumptuous Babassu body butter that’s filled with amazing anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties sourced west of the Amazon, to aromatic green tea body oil harvested in Southwest China.
Jojoba oil facial cleansers make for the most natural, and effective way to rid your face of all the dirt and grime of the day, while also nourishing and moisturizing your skin, while the rosewater-infused toner is just the relaxing touch you need to wind down after a long, hard day.
We were even more excited to learn about the oriental Oud range by Kosmé Paris that is exclusive to the Middle East region and you can find it only at Talise Spa. Don’t forget to try out a luxurious spa journey at the Spa using this range in particular! Indulge in a massage with the fragrant and relaxing body oil and go home with the Oud-infused bath oil, your skin will be left feeling nourished, refreshed, and aromatic long after your spa session is concluded.
