Elsewhere, the Remedy Suite steps into the future of wellness. Cryotherapy, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, and infrared detox treatments provide touchless healing for modern ailments: jet lag, stress, or simply the wear of a relentless schedule. These aren't gimmicks — they're tools for restoration, grounded in science and guided by care.
For those yearning for deeper calm, the Mindfulness Lounge may be where the holiday truly begins. Here, vibroacoustic therapy merges sound, vibration, and meditative practice in a setting that feels more sanctuary than spa. Whether choosing a Sleep Well journey or a program aimed at easing anxiety, the intention is simple: to make space for stillness.

And if indulgence is part of your Eid tradition, Talise Spa offers its own kind of luxury — one that doesn't shout, but soothes. Facials and body treatments fuse clinical innovation with ancient wisdom, from oxygen-rich skincare rituals to body sculpting with cryo therapies. Every treatment is an invitation to return to yourself.
Eid Al Adha is a time of reflection, connection, and renewal. At Talise Spa, those values are not only welcomed — they are honoured. This is not just a destination for pampering, but a retreat for the senses and the spirit. As the city celebrates, perhaps the greatest gift you can offer yourself is a few hours by the sea, in the stillness, finding balance once more.

Is Hair & Scalp SPF Actually a Thing?

Time and again, we're reminded that sunscreen is sacrosanct. It's the Holy Grail of skincare. The be-all and end-all of your routine. But does the rule apply to your hair and scalp, too? The internet seems to think so, and considering your scalp is an extension of your skin, the experts agree, too. 'The scalp is skin — and just like the rest of your body, it is vulnerable to sun damage,' says Michael Ryan, clinical trichologist, Dubai Hair Doctor. 'Many people forget this area because it's often covered with hair. But the part lines, thinning areas, receding hairlines, and even fully exposed scalps for bald individuals, can get sunburnt, leading to discomfort.' The hair affair While your hair acts like a barrier for most of it, your scalp is still susceptible to UV ray exposure and eventual damage. According to Ryan, it's a high risk for sunbuns due to direct sun exposure, especially at the crown and part line. 'Skin cancers often appear on the scalp because it's constantly exposed and often unprotected.' To top it off, just like heat, UV rays can degrade your hair proteins, particularly keratin. While hair itself is not living tissue, Dr Anjali Mahto, consultant dermatologist at Self London, believes that it can also suffer from UV exposure, leading to dryness, brittleness, and colour fading. 'Applying sunscreen to the scalp is about offering it the same protection we afford the rest of our skin,' she says. 'Repeated UV exposure can lead to damage, pigmentation changes and, in some cases, precancerous lesions.' It doesn't end there. Neglecting to protect your scalp can eventually lead to several risks, including burns that may result in redness, peeling, tenderness, irritation, and flaking, which almost mimics dandruff. Repeated sun exposure may contribute to accelerated scalp skin ageing, and even follicular inflammation that can potentially impact hair growth over time. It also increases the risk of skin cancers such as basal or squamous cell carcinoma, particularly in those with thinning or bald areas. Is it an absolute necessity? Yes and no! 'It's not about overcomplicating your routine,' says Dr Mahto. 'It's about smart, targeted protection.' For example, if you have thick hair with no visible scalp, the risk is lower, though still present on partings or the hairline. If you wear your hair in partings or hairstyles that expose the scalp or if you have thinning or fine hair, then sun protection becomes essential. This applies to those who are bald or closely shaved, too.

Everything You Need to Know About Perimenopause

Perimenopause deserves our full attention. Once considered a taboo topic, this transitional life stage is finally taking centre stage in women's health conversations, blending clinical science with emotional intelligence. From hormone diagnostics and HRT to mindset shifts and sleep rituals, this is your definitive guide to navigating perimenopause with clarity, confidence, and care. What is perimenopause, really? "Perimenopause is the transition period leading up to menopause, typically beginning four to ten years beforehand," explains Dr Alla Zaentc, Functional Medicine & Longevity Specialist at AEON Clinic, Atlantis The Royal, Dubai. It's a time of fluctuating estrogen and progesterone levels, which send ripples through virtually every system in the body: reproductive, metabolic, neurological, and emotional. While menopause is diagnosed retrospectively after 12 consecutive months without a period, perimenopause is often harder to define. "Symptoms can be subtle at first, irregular periods, brain fog, mood swings, even heart palpitations," says Dr. Zaentc. "But they're all signals from the body that change is underway." The hidden signals Beyond hot flashes and night sweats, many symptoms of perimenopause fly under the radar. Think joint aches, sudden anxiety, thinning hair, or migraines that now feel different. "One of the earliest signs is disrupted sleep," notes hormone health coach Laure Sejean. "Waking between one and three am can signal liver overload. Later in the night? That might be cortisol surges." Other overlooked clues include reduced libido, trouble concentrating, and unexplained weight gain, especially around the midsection. "Women often tell me, 'I haven't changed anything, but my body feels completely different,'" Sejean shares. It's not in your head. It's in your hormones. Hormones in flux During perimenopause, estrogen and progesterone don't simply decline. They spike and crash erratically. "This hormonal rollercoaster affects everything from serotonin levels and metabolic rate to bone density and cardiovascular health," says Dr. Zaentc. High follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and low anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) are key markers, but perimenopause remains largely a clinical diagnosis, best understood through symptoms, not just labs. "Women need to be heard, not just tested," Dr. Zaentc stresses. Medical meets holistic: two paths to support At AEON Clinic, treatment begins with a full-body, lifestyle-led evaluation, incorporating sleep, nutrition, stress, and fitness. Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is considered when symptoms are severe, and a woman is within 10 years of menopause onset. "When used appropriately, HRT can improve quality of life and prevent long-term health risks like osteoporosis," says Dr. Zaentc.

Skin Shock Treatments: Lifting Facial Vials That Erase Wrinkles In Minutes

Before the red carpet, stars undergo massages and shock-action treatments that can lift the features and make the face look younger, if only for one evening. This is why, for a special occasion, it might be useful to rely on products with immediate results such as Rilastil Hydrotenseur Anti-Wrinkle Lifting Vials, a treatment that gives the skin an immediate tightening effect, counteracting wrinkles and sagging from the very first application. A quick and effective solution, it adds up to the benefits given by the continued use of Rilastil's anti-aging vials, which help fight the signs of aging, leaving the skin more even, toned and supple. Why try the lifting-effect vials? An anti-wrinkle and lifting concentrate that combines hyaluronic acid with 7 percent Lifting Complex and Tensi Smooth, high-tech complexes that smooth out wrinkles with an instant tightening effect, helping-with time-to make the skin more elastic, to fight expression lines more effectively.

Along with their lifting action, Rilastil's vials help restructure the epidermal barrier, helping the skin stay hydrated longer and deeper, a factor that helps slow down aging. Reviews from people who have tried Rilastil's lifting vials Excellent product!!! I bought these vials as a gift for my mom and already after the first applications, she noticed her skin was more relaxed, hydrated and glowing. The texture is very light, it absorbs in a moment without being oily, also perfect as a makeup base. The lifting effect is real and can be felt, especially in critical areas such as around the eyes and forehead. The vials are practical to use and hygienic, ideal for a shock treatment. A real ally for daily skincare. I will definitely buy them again! Highly recommended! Excellent product to use on face and neck. The lifting action is felt immediately and lasts even with heavy makeup or, in my case, competitive sports makeup. Rilastil never disappoints, absolutely recommended! Instant lifting. Not only that but it also evens out the skin texture. Guaranteed results throughout the evening. I recommend moisturising the skin very well before applying the product, otherwise your skin will feel quite dry. How to use Rilastil Hydrotenseur Anti-Wrinkle Lifting Vials After breaking the vial, the product should simply be applied to the face and neck using your fingertips—but avoid prolonged massages. Online users also recommend moisturising the skin before applying the vial to make the treatment more sensory. Finally, to maximise results, they recommend using one vial a day for 7 consecutive days, resulting in a shock treatment with deeply anti-aging action. Article originally published on Vogue Italy
