Like an artist with brushes and a blank canvas, it is difficult to create art on a medium which is uneven or unclean.
Similarly, our facial skin can deteriorate as cells start to pile up unevenly on the skin’s surface, leading to an often dry, dull and rough appearance. Exfoliation is crucial as it removes the cells that are ‘clinging on’, revealing the fresher, and younger skin cells below.
The Organic Skin. Co. Brightening Almond Seed Exfoliant is the perfect tool for cleansing your skin, leaving it smooth and nourished. Packed with luxurious organic ingredients, it is designed to help ‘clean’ and prepare your canvas, enabling the skin to easily absorb serum, oil or moisturiser.
As its name suggests, The Organic Skin. Co. Brightening Almond Seed Exfoliant has been specially formulated to gently ‘brighten’ the skin. It does so with a combination of very fine particles of almond seed, organic plant extracts and oils which cleanse and invigorate.
The fine particles of Almond Seed give this exfoliant its wonderful smell, while removing dirt, oil and dead cells from the skin.
With a balancing base of organic Aloe Vera and organic Jojoba Seed Oil, this exfoliant also contains supercritical extracts of Licorice and Usnea Lichen. These extracts are anti-inflammatory, anti bacterial and are great for dry, sun damaged skin. Licorice is also a wonderful treatment for skin discolourations.
EXPERT TIP: “As a Naturopath I recommend gentle exfoliation using natural ingredients - ingredients that take off only the very top layer of dead skin cells, leaving the balance of the skin intact. Quite simply, I am not a fan of chemical exfoliation and harsh peels, which can leave you looking great for a short time but leave the skin thinner and more susceptible to extensive sun and oxidative damage”. - Megan Douglas, Naturopath, Medical Herbalist and creator of The Organic Skin Co
