For a standard BORAGE body care treatment, the simplest sequence is scrub → mask → cream → optional spa fragrance. Each step has a different role, and keeping the order consistent helps spa teams deliver a clear, repeatable treatment.
What is the correct order for a spa body treatment?
- Body Scrub: use first to exfoliate and prepare the skin.
- Body Mask: apply after exfoliation as the treatment and conditioning step.
- Body Cream: use after the mask is removed to finish with moisture and comfort.
- Spa Fragrance: use as an optional finishing touch after the cream.
This sequence is suitable for many body care services, including spa and salon treatment menus. Specific rituals can differ, so always follow the procedure designed for that treatment.
Step 1: Body scrub
A body scrub is normally the first product in the sequence because it removes surface buildup and creates a clean starting point for the next steps. BORAGE supplies several scrub formats and aroma profiles for spa use.
Step 2: Body mask
After exfoliation, a body mask becomes the treatment step. It is applied to the prepared skin, left according to the service protocol, and then removed before the finishing product is applied.
Step 3: Body cream
Body cream follows the mask. This is the finishing care step for the skin and helps complete the body care sequence without adding unnecessary complexity to the service.
Step 4: Spa fragrance
Spa fragrance can be used after the cream as an optional finishing step when the treatment concept includes a coordinated aroma. It should be treated as a finishing product rather than a replacement for the scrub, mask or cream stages.
How much product is used for hands and feet?
For BORAGE manicure and pedicure treatment guidance, a practical reference is approximately 50 g of scrub, 30 g of mask and 60 g of cream for the hands and feet combined. Actual usage can vary with the service, coverage and therapist technique.
What about massage oil?
Massage oil belongs to a different service flow. For a regular massage, it is applied to dry skin and excess product can be removed with a warm towel. A shower is preferred afterward. The BORAGE Sakura ritual follows its own sequence and is covered separately in the Spa Journal.
For spas and salons in the UAE and GCC
BORAGE supplies body scrubs, masks and creams in 4 kg formats, massage oils in 5 L formats, and spa fragrances in 250 ml formats. Businesses can review the BORAGE catalog or apply for wholesale access.
Quick answer
Standard body care order: Scrub first, mask second, cream third, and spa fragrance last if the treatment includes a fragrance finish.
