Apsu Varanasi Spicy Clay Foot Mask

Feet and summer in the same sentence can mean horror for some women. Winter, and wearing closed in shoes for months, means that the key area stretching below your ankles may need some attention; ditto for anyone who’s planning a beach holiday wearing sandals or thongs. Removing dry skin and a neat pedicure is essential to keep your feet and toes looking, and feeling, in great shape, but you can also consider using a foot mask as a boost to pep up your lower pins. Welcome to Apsu, a new Australian-owned luxury spa brand which launched onto the global beauty market earlier last year. It has a new Varanasi range which aims to deliver Eastern culture in a Western spa style, drawing from Hindu culture and inspired by the golden goddess Annapurna, Queen of Varanasi. The hero ingredient of the collection is gold, which has been crafted to nourish the body, mind and spirit through this range of luxury products. There are a number of products in the range for the body and hair, one of which is the luxury Varanasi Spicy Clay Foot Mask (rrp $29.50, https://apsulife.com/product/spicy-clay-foot-mask/)

According to legend, Shiva, the god and husband of Annapurna, Goddess and Queen of Varanasi, received the ultimate foot rub from his holy consort. Also, Ayurvedic practitioners believe that feet reveal the bodies imbalances - your feet work hard, so be kind to them! A soothing and detoxifying green clay is at the heart of this spicy mask for feet, combined with the added zing of Ginger root, Cinnamon, and Clove to keep feet fresh and healthy, fight bacteria and promote circulation and exfoliate the skin, revealing your feet in a new light.  To use it, simply apply to cleansed feet and ankles, relax somewhere comfortable for 15 minutes and then wash off in the shower, bath or a warm foot bath if you have one. The Varanasi Spicy Clay Foot Mask is the perfect end to a home pedicure and a wonderful way to relax and give your feet a softening boost. It also smells good enough to eat!
