Orange & Grapefruit Facial Scrub

Description

This beautiful facial scrub is a delicate blend of unrefined sea salt (Soil Association certified), UK sourced soothing kaolin clay and the beautiful citrus scents of organic orange and grapefruit essential oils. The fine grain salt gently exfoliates the skin – we use fine grain sea salt for a gentle exfoliant compared to course sea salt which tends to be abrasive. The kaolin clay is soothes and extracts impurities.

Kaolin clay is a mineral rich, light clay and extremely soft in texture.  Kaolin gets its name due to the clay first being taken from the hills in Gaoling, China.  Kaolin can come in slightly different shades of white – sometimes pink or greenish but the whiter the clay, the purer it is.  With its neutral Ph, kaolin does not dry your skin out.  However it still has powerful and beneficial  properties with its ability to gently extract impurities making it ideal for tackling spots and acne and also removing excess oil from the skin.  Not only does this soft clay cleanse the skin without irritation, it also soothes inflammation.

For the uplifting, astringent boost we’ve added organic orange and grapefruit essential oils.

Orange essential oil boosts the mood and is an anti-depressant and even an aphrodisiac. It is excellent for the skin with its anti-inflammatory and antiseptic properties making it ideal for acne, dermatitis and uncomfortable skin conditions. It even aids the reduction of dark spots, thanks to the vitamin C content. Orange essential oil promotes circulation whilst simultaneously reducing enlarged pores and firming the skin.

Grapefruit essential oil is mentally uplifting & stimulating citrus oil that is anti-oxidant, antiseptic and anti-microbial which makes it perfect for cleansing the skin. With its anti-viral properties, it boosts the lymphatic system so can help with freeing the body of toxins. Oily skin can benefit from grapefruit as it helps reduce the overproduction of sebum. Excess sebum is oily skin. By aiding the skin to regenerate, grapefruit can help maintain youthful and glowing skin.

Refills are available in this product too.
