Buy the fountain of youth - at Barneys!
Water therapy is all the rage these days, with costly infused baths and water-based therapies popping up on spa menus from here to Helsinki. Now there’s an install-it-yourself way to get a mini spa treatment every time you shower.
Methven, the Kiwi (that’s New Zealand) purveyor of showerheads and faucets, makes its debut in the U.S. this week with the Satinjet Maia, a multifunctional shower head that not only dechlorinates but also infuses water with antioxidant vitamin C.
The shower head, which has won several design awards, uses twin jets to turn each normal-size droplet of water into thousands, delivering a luxe spray of 3,000 drops per second - ample shower power for the body but also gentle enough for facial massage.
The eco-conscious will be happy to know that the fixture meets the world’s strictest global water-conservation standards - it qualifies as a low-flow shower head even though it doesn’t feel like one.
And those who crave additional pampering will soon be able to purchase add-on infusion cartridges (currently in development) that will contain herbs, Epsom salts and aromatherapy. Satinjet Maia goes on sale this week for $395 exclusively at
Barneys New York.
