Benefits
Microbiome - there is a complex ecosystem of microbes that live on the surface of the skin. The way in which skin is cleansed is one of the most important aspects in ensuring a healthy microbial environment exists. We have used ultra-mild surfactants that do not strip the natural lipid barrier of the skin or disrupt the resident microbes. We also take great care in keeping the pH the same as skin because the good microbes favour the natural skin pH. Harsh cleansing opens up the skin to the opportunistic, non-beneficial microbes that accelerate ageing.
Active Treatment -marula oil dissolves oil-based impurities without stripping. Aloe vera has soothing and healing properties ensuring this product is suitable for the most sensitive of skins. Jojoba oil leaves skin feeling refined and smooth and makes it the ideal product for skin that tends towards dryness. Palmarosa, caraway and rose geranium deliver antiseptic properties as well as the refreshing green fragrance.

"Parabens are preservatives often added to face washes to prevent the growth of bacteria. Parabens have hormone-disrupting qualities, mimicking estrogen, and interfere with the body's endocrine system. These chemicals are absorbed through the skin and have been identified in biopsy samples from breast tumours. Formaldehydeand formaldehyde-releasing preservatives (FRP's) preservatives are used in many cosmetic products to help prevent bacteria growth and increase the products shelf life. This chemical was deemed as a human carcinogen by The International Agency for Research on Carcinogens (IARC). None of these ingredients are beneficial to our skin, in fact, they are really bad for us".
