Almond Rose Exfoliant
Almond Rose Exfoliant is a gentle manual exfoliant that doubles as an intensely hydrating and nourishing mask. Soft grain exfoliators remove dull, dead skin while roots and petals infuse with hydration and vitamins to reveal a plump and dewy glow. Nettle and Red Clover provide minerals for cellular replenishment and antioxidants to neutralize free radicals. The combination of both Oats and Almonds is ideal because it provides both water-based nutrients like B Vitamins (niacin) and oil-based nutrients like Vitamin E. This soothing exfoliant is beneficial for all skin types and presenting symptoms.
ROSE – Our vibrant Heirloom Rose petals are grown exclusively for us by a California farm. Their vibrancy and antioxidant content are palpable. Rose is a powerful hydrating humectant which visibly plumps and strengthens our skin’s barrier. Constituents like B Vitamins, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, flavonoids, anthocyanins, and gallic acid are all found in Rose petals.
MARSHMALLOW – This mucilaginous root has hydrating compounds that mimic lab-made hyaluronic acid. It deeply hydrates, soothes, and softens the skin. It contains standout constituents like Betaine, B Vitamins, Quercetin, Ferulic Acid, and Polysaccharides. This plant has an affinity for water-friendly tissue like fascia, and can help with stagnation in connective tissues.
NETTLE – A superfood like no other, Nettle is a wealth of hundreds of plant constituents like vitamins A, B, C, D, E, and K. Minerals such as iron, calcium, zinc, and magnesium, alongside phenolic compounds, are abundant. This mighty leaf nourishes cells with every possible building block to support each aspect of healthy functioning. Nettle is a tonic herb, which means it has the ability to powerfully shift health through nutrient delivery.
Usage: Simple Exfoliant: Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon of Almond Rose Exfoliant in with your cleanser for an exfoliating cleanser. To use as a quick exfoliant alone, moisten face and hands. Place 1/2 teaspoon in the palm and trickle in a few more drops of water. Massage and exfoliate over the skin and rinse. Use 2x per week. Exfoliating Hydration Mask: Put 1/2 teaspoon into a small dish. Trickle in a bit of water with your fingers until it’s just slightly runny. Allow to steep and thicken for a few minutes. The mask will thicken to a rich oatmeal consistency. Pat and massage onto skin to exfoliate. Leave on for 10-20 more minutes, keep mask hydrated with water throughout, then rinse. Follow with Elixir and Serum.
