Say no to irritation, allergic skin reactions, acne & inflamed skin
Adored by many, our Purifying Cleansing Gel, winner for the best cleanser in the global Think Dirty consumer choice awards which celebrates brands making a difference in cleaner cosmetics, is one of our can’t do without products. Imagine a nutrient rich gel which cleanses and protects whilst decongesting the skin.
Fresh and fragrant, we've blended natural plant foaming agents with smoothing seaweed extracts, to deeply purify skin. Never drying the skin out as a balanced skin is our intention. Our natural foaming agents; Quillaja and Soapwort, works well to defuse inflamed skin. Also featuring the healing benefits of rosemary and lavender, it helps to balance sebum levels.
The Power of Quillaja & Yucca
Yucca contains high amounts of vitamin C and antioxidants. Both are valued in building a good healthy immune system. Vitamin C stimulates the production and activity of white blood cells, which fight infections and viruses, and in skincare it builds strong connective tissue. The antioxidants yucca contains protect us from cell mutations and damage from destructive molecules called free radicals.
Quillaja consists of saponins; natural carbohydrates that break down excess skin oil. Applied topically, it gently deep cleanses but also soothe’s and protects the skin from dryness and cracking. It reduces inflammation, and creates a healthy glow.
Quillaja has also traditionally been used to assist in wound healing. With added vitamin E it’s our mission to keep skin healthy.
Turn Facial Cleansing into Moments of Meditation
With the art of holistic healing as our foundation, we’ve formulated our Purifying Cleansing Gel to bridge the gap between body and mind. A sensory experience that when inhaled deeply, and combined with the practice of breath work, balances skin with a burst of oxygen and calms the senses.
Whilst cleansing your face be intentional about purifying your skin and all that is not serving your purpose. Cup your hand over your mouth and nose, then take a 3-second-deep breath followed by a 3-second-exhale. Allow the aromatherapy oils to unblock your airways. It’s gentle yet effective.
Repeat with your hands placed on your skin while breathing through your nose. Repeat 3 times.
With each exhale imagine you are releasing all tension you may hold within. Inhale and bring into your being and skin a glow of happiness.
