Dubai, UAE,19th September 2024: Sunlife is proud to introduce its new wellness brand, GLOW, a radiant embodiment of the group’s fresh take on well-being. More than a mere name, GLOW signifies an entire universe anchored in natural products sourced from Mauritius and showcased in the group’s resort’s spas. It represents Sunlife‘s evolving philosophy of wellness, embodying the vitality of Mauritius itself.
Inspired by Nature, Radiating Wellness
GLOW draws its energy from the natural beauty of Mauritius. As Reshma Dookheea, Cluster Spa Manager at Sunlife, explains, “On the east coast at Long Beach, we celebrate the rising of the sun, a symbol of vitality. On the west coast at Sugar Beach, we embrace breathtaking sunsets, encouraging relaxation and rejuvenation. GLOW reflects these complementary energies beautifully.”
The GLOW experience is not only about luxurious spa treatments; it’s a transformative journey that uses a harmonious colour palette of seafoam blue, golden amber, and rich ochre, mirroring the island’s turquoise lagoons, fertile soil, and lush greenery.
GLOW empowers guests to be the heroes of their wellness story, blending deep relaxation with personal renewal. Sunlife has designed GLOW to help guests foster a connection with Mauritian culture and encourage a sense of personal well-being.
Exclusive GLOW Spa Experiences
GLOW’s new signature rituals celebrate the rich heritage of Mauritius, blending African, European, and Asian massage techniques. Treatments like the “Mauritian Journey” at Long Beach and the “Cosmic Journey” at Sugar Beach combine ancient remedies and sensory experiences, transporting guests into a state of deep relaxation and heightened awareness.
Signature Treatments
- The Mauritian Journey: This rejuvenating ritual incorporates local ingredients like moringa oil and Mauritian salts, while bell chimes and herbal masks offer a multi-sensory experience, promoting well-being in the spa’s serene tropical gardens.
- The Cosmic Journey: At Sugar Beach, guests enjoy the therapeutic benefits of rose quartz, sunstone, and sapphire, combined with soothing flute melodies to achieve profound relaxation and balance.
Locally Sourced, Natural Products
In collaboration with local Mauritian company Indika and biomedical research lab Axonova, GLOW features a range of 100% natural skincare products. The line is inspired by traditional Mauritian remedies, using ingredients like pomegranate, moringa, and bitter orange to enhance vitality and wellness.
Guests can also visit the Ferney Nature Reserve to explore the island’s natural flora and meet the artisans behind these products.
GLOW’s wellness offerings extend beyond spa treatments, introducing five new intuitive workshops designed to foster creativity and mindfulness. These 90-minute sessions invite guests to explore the Mauritian way of life through dance, storytelling, sound healing, and sand art.
