Ahava or not to Ahava? That is my question. Ever heard of Ahava Body Products? Shame on you... tut tut. Here’s a low down on some fantastic skincare products you can stock in your salon, use in your kit of simply smother yourself in the privacy of your own home.

Ahava are from developed by Dead Sea Laboratories. Each series are based on natural health minerals of the dead sea. I discovered Ahava in Egypt a few years ago and have always loved their products. Until recent years it hasn’t been the easiest product to source but the good news... it is now! www.ahava.co.uk
Impressively, Ahava offer ‘Try me’ products which are at a discounted rate. Genius! Now, I need to get into the nitty gritty, there’s a lot to gush about.  2 of my Zola Panel were on hand to give me the low down...

Ahava, Hand Cream
Easy squeezable packaging with flip lid. Smell is signature throughout body products, ,texture is thick/rich. Dries and absorbs well, leaves hands nicely moisturiser and silky, residue feel has reduced leaving no stickiness whatsoever. Love this, its going straight in my kit.... not giving this up!



Ahava, Foot Cream
Talk about walking on silk. I think I’m in foot heaven. It smells like the hand cream, it feels like the hand cream and its got the same silky aftermath BUT you don’t slip and slide in your shoes, you’ll have  shiny soft feet. Fantastic investment. Put in the fridge for sometime to give that extra Ooooo factor when applying.



Ahava, Mineral Body Lotion
Very moisturising, smells same as hand cream, wears off though so perfume wont fight with it! Great sheen left without stickiness, very soft, silky and cooling . Surprising find, really like it.
Ahava, Pure mud body treatment

Loved the clean earthy vibe of the packaging. Heated it up in the microwave which was easy but it burns very quickly so only put it on for a short time! BE WARNED...! Be very careful not to apply straight from hot pack to skin!  It went on easy because the mud was quiet thick so no dribbles!  It's the sort of stuff that gets everywhere, and you have to wait 10-15 mins so you couldn't do your whole body. You might be better with a partner in crime for this fun filled mud application. ;-0


BUT the result is totally amazing. Very smooth glowing skin!  You could use this as a mini treatment for feet, feels quite cooling as the warmth wears off.   Final thoughts - It’s a bit like home fake tanning, its can get everywhere and be a right mess but if you love the result and you have patience you can become a pro.
Thanks Zola's - great doing business witcha!  Zoe x
