MSC Cruises has launched a signature collection of spa treatments, created with the LAJATICA vinotherapy products from Bocelli Wines. Exclusive to the MSC Aurea Spa, the treatments debuted on the Miami-based MSC Seaside, and will soon be introduced on MSC Cruises ships fleet-wide. Strengthened by the anti-aging and firming properties found in grapes, these luxurious facial and body treatments are made with natural extracts from the Bocelli family vineyards and blended with Tuscan plants and essential oils.
MSC Cruises strives to enhance the onboard experience for guests in each of its partnerships in a way that reflects the Company’s Mediterranean heritage and family spirit. Bocelli Wines, like MSC Cruises, is a family-owned business sharing the same values of tradition, excellence and passion. The Bocelli family has been producing small-yield wine with a handmade artesian style for 180 years and its collection represents the very best of Italian wine. The vineyard is currently run by Alberto Bocelli, whose brother, the world-famous tenor Andrea Bocelli, has held a relationship with MSC Cruises since he performed at the christening of MSC Poesia in 2008.
THE BENEFITS OF VINOTHERAPY
Known as “nature’s antioxidants,” grapes contain powerful compounds called polyphenols, which fight free radicals and stimulate the renewal of cells and collagen. The results are clear, with skin showing a more refined, youthful appearance. These polyphenols are up to 50 times stronger than vitamin E and 20 times stronger than vitamin C. Grapes also contain an abundance of vitamins and minerals including vitamins A, B1, C, E and K; in addition to magnesium, iron, potassium, calcium and phosphorus. MSC Cruises worked to create a series of unique treatments using the LAJATICA cosmetics range to offer guests the rich benefits of Italian grapes.
MSC Aurea Spa guests will benefit from boosted circulation, reduced signs of ageing, improved digestion and brightened skin tone. The treatments come in many forms, from traditional massages using essential oils, to baths and peels, and are recommended for those wishing to counteract problems with skin elasticity and hydration, as well as to strengthen their blood vessels, thereby improving microcirculation.
MSC AUREA SPA VINOTHERAPY BEAUTY TREATMENTS
Eight different luxury, wine-based treatments have been developed exclusively for MSC Cruises using the LAJATICA beauty products and are designed for both men and women, which include three different body treatments, a luxurious Mediterranean Citrus Body Massage and four facials, one specifically designed for men.
