How To Spend Your Load-shedding Down-time

Rather than lamenting another powerless night in the dark, let’s look at load-shedding as an excuse for a little luxury me-time indulgence sans the usual distractions of work, computers, TV and wifi. Before you know it you’ll be doing the unthinkable and thanking Eskom for the much-needed downtime.

Our pick of the perfect pamperers?
Light a Jo Malone Pomegrante Noir Home Candle (R750, Jo Malone), pop some soothing Wild Argan Oil Bubbling Bath (R120, The Body Shop) into your bath, and settle in for a few hours of candlelit bliss.

Vacate the tub as soon as your hands start resembling prunes and indulge in a little rehydration therapy. We love Africology Tissue Oil (R159.95, Africology), to soothe, hydrate and restore skin, and Moya Hand and Heel Therapy (R33.95, Moya) for hands and feet.
