Our two lovely hostesses taught us how to make a body scrub called boreh, used for the Penganten Mulukat Body Treatment. The ingredients are 50 gr ginger, 50 gr galangal (a root) 250 gr clove, and 100 gr soaked rice.
The whole mixture is ground up with mortar and pestle to make a paste.
Then the paste is placed in a banana-leaf bowel.
Then I took the mixture back to my room and rubbed it on my body (most of it – the face and tender parts must be avoided). Then I waited ten minutes while my body heated up like a hot chili pepper, and finally washed it off in the shower. My skin has never felt so soft and smooth!
