Get ready to slather on some history, because Borghese just threw the most iconic spa-inspired bash to celebrate 40 years of their legendary FANGO mud mask. And guess what? Celeb Secrets‘ very own Juliet Schroder was front and center, diving deep into the world of Italian skincare royalty!
Let’s rewind a bit. Imagine a world where spa treatments were only for, well, actual princesses. Enter Princess Marcella Borghese, a total skincare visionary, who decided to bring those luxe Tuscan spa vibes straight to our bathrooms back in 1957. Fast forward to today, and we’re celebrating the diamond anniversary of their OG superstar: the Advanced Fango Active Mud Mask.
This isn’t just any mud mask, babes. We’re talking about a mineral-enriched, five-minute miracle worker that purifies, clarifies, and even gives those pesky fine lines the side-eye. (Yes, please!) And to mark this epic milestone, Borghese transformed Artishouse in NYC into an “Art of FANGO” gallery experience last Wednesday (March 26) that was seriously chef’s kiss.
Juliet stepped into a time capsule, journeying through Borghese’s rich history, from its Italian roots to its modern-day glow-up. Think vintage ads, modern reinventions, and all the behind-the-scenes deets on how this iconic mask has stayed a skincare staple for four decades.
But here’s the real tea: this wasn’t just a history lesson. We got to channel our inner artists and create our own FANGO-inspired abstract masterpieces! Imagine Juliet, armed with paintbrushes and a serious dose of creativity, bringing her own unique vision to life. Let’s just say, mud masks and modern art? A combo we didn’t know we needed, but now can’t live without.
And speaking of me-time, let’s talk about the FANGO mask itself. This isn’t just a quick fix; it’s a ritual. A moment to pause, breathe, and give your skin the royal treatment it deserves. Priced at a cool $53 (available on Borghese.com, Amazon.com, Neiman Marcus, Macy’s, QVC, and Dillard’s), it’s a splurge that’s totally worth it for that supple, never-dry skin feeling.
Borghese isn’t just about skincare; it’s about a lifestyle. It’s about blending natural botanicals with modern science to create products that deliver real results. It’s about those “me moments” that help us reset and recharge. In a world that’s constantly buzzing, that’s something we can all get behind.
So, here’s to 40 years of FANGO, to Princess Marcella Borghese’s vision, and to all the glow-ups to come. Whether you’re a skincare newbie or a seasoned pro, Borghese’s FANGO mud mask is a must-try for that at-home spa experience.
