Beautiful skin with coffee
FORGET honey or milk, the in-thing in beauty salons now is coffee... and it’s not served in a cup. OPI new coffee treatment includes espresso soak and scrub and cappuccino mask and massage for silky hands and feet. Caffeine, often touted as an ingredient for weight loss, is now used to invigorate and moisturise skin. Available at Colour Culture outlets at RM158 for both manicure and pedicure.
