For centuries without the intervention of modern creams, Asian women were known for their beautiful skin and faces. They used different kinds of fruit extracts to slough off dead skin cells, fight acne, and replenish moisture to nourish their skin. Many natural beauty preparations stem from the palaces in Central Java where princesses spent their youth learning and preparing them for their own use.
Following their lead, more and more savvy customers are realising that chemical free products provide optimum anti-ageing results for their face. Bali BISA teaches how to prepare natural ingredients commonly found in the kitchen (for example, cucumbers, candle nuts, avocado, limes, bananas, eggs and honey) that have traditionally been used in Southeast Asia for cleansing, exfoliating, toning and moisturising the skin. Proper application techniques are regularly practised, so students are ready to apply the skills in the commercial world.
