The Egyptian Gold facial at Raffles Dubai hotel spa uses 24 karat gold in their facial making it the most expensive facial in the world.
What Is It?
How much do you pay for your facials? 30 AED? or maybe 50 AED or a max of 100 AED? What if we told you that there’s a facial in Dubai that costs a whopping 2450 AED? Oh, and it uses real gold!
If you thought Dubai is the land of the royals, you’re correct. It starts with a regular facial where you have to undergo the cleansing and exfoliating your skin before the actual gold treatment begins. Using a serum of ions and an ultrasonic device, the gold peel is applied to the skin. But beware, you’re supposed to lie ultra still so that not even a molecule of the peel falls off. Then the spa therapist will be using expert hands to massage the gold peel and it will be absorbed into your skin.
Yes, there’s no need to wash off the remnants because your skin actually absorbs the gold used in this facial.
