When you’re down in the dumps and you feel like giving your ex a black eye, remember the inner princess in you. It’s so easy to behave like a peasant and cave into catfights and karate moves.

If you are ever in doubt about your inner princess, you need to get a hold of some of Sultana de Saba products. No matter how terrible your mood maybe (okay, fine, take that Prozac), or how awful your day has been (yes, the cabbie really had no right to yell at you), a few encounters with masterpieces like the Honey Mask, Body Milk, rich Karite Butter (my fave) and Rassoul will make you forget about that black eye or cat fight in a split Sultan second.

Sultana de Saba has an amazing following in Europe, and is worshipped by the European press. It has spas in Belgium, Luxembourg and Pays Bas and the treatments would make Cleopatra wish she had been reborn.

The products are made exactly the way the Queen of Sheba and the Sultanas used to, around 3,000 years ago. Antiquated, you might say? But honestly, why reinvent the past when it was so darn good? I could not pry my hands off the body milk and karate butter jars…

So, what can you turn to when the going gets rough?
