Knowing that many people want to spend as much time outdoors as possible in the summer, Hong Kong's Sense of Touch developed a spa skin treatment specifically as a soothing [after-sun remedy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/after-sun-ice-foam).

The two-hour 'Coconut Paradise' package begins by treating guests to a refreshing drink and a Balinese coconut foot scrub, which helps to clear away any dead skin cells for beach-ready feet.

Following this, the treatment for dry summer skin includes a full-body massage with cold-pressed organic virgin coconut oil. This oil is known to have a [cooling effect on the body](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tirtir-icecooling-collection), which is especially beneficial for treating skin scorched by the sun. Even without the benefits getting a massage in the summer from this Chinese spa, coconut oil is ideal for naturally treating damaged or thirsty skin, as well as preventing future sunburns.
