3. Dead Sea Salt Exfoliation
The mineral-rich Dead Sea salts were a staple in ancient Egyptian skincare. It removes dead skin cells, improves circulation, and leaves skin feeling smooth and rejuvenated.
4. Nourishing eye cream

Hayaty Natural's Egyptian Recovery Cream offers a modern take on traditional treatments. This innovative cream combines the power of black seed with Bio-liquefaction and Plant Stem Cell Technology to support and optimise the skin's natural overnight recovery process from external environmental aggressors such as Blue Light released from electronic devices, (UV) Rays, Pollution, and Smoke. The cream also helps reduce puffiness, dark circles, and fine lines. Its rich yet lightweight formula absorbs quickly, providing deep hydration without feeling heavy or greasy. The black seed in the cream can help strengthen the skin barrier, protecting sensitive areas from environmental stressors.
Regular use of Hayaty Natural's Egyptian Recovery Cream can help improve the appearance of the eye contour, making it look more refreshed and youthful. The cream's natural ingredients work in harmony to soothe, nourish, and revitalise the skin.
