This beautiful anhydrous facial cleanser contains the organic oils of castor, sweet almond oil and vitamin E, with sweet orange essential oil and provides deep, gentle cleansing, intense hydration, and acne-fighting benefits. Castor oil helps to purge impurities, sweet almond oil helps to moisturise and vitamin E helps to repair the skin barrier. Scented with sweet orange essential oil which helps to brighten and reduce inflammation. Comes with an organic muslin cloth. This facial cleanser's amazing skin benefits!: - Castor oil is a nutrient-rich, plant-based oil that offers intense moisturisation, reduces acne, and fights inflammation, making it excellent for dry and ageing skin. Its high ricinoleic acid content promotes collagen production, reduces puffiness, and supports skin healing. It is best applied at night to lock in moisture. - Sweet almond oil is a nutrient-rich, lightweight oil packed with Vitamin E, Vitamin A, and fatty acids that deeply moisturise, soothe inflammation, and improve complexion. Ideal for sensitive and dry skin, it acts as a barrier to prevent moisture loss, reduces the appearance of scars, stretch marks, and dark circles, and promotes a youthful, radiant glow. Key Benefits of Sweet Almond Oil for Skin: Deep Moisturisation: It serves as an effective emollient, locking in moisture to soften dry, flaky skin. Rich in Nutrients: Contains high levels of Vitamin E, Vitamin A (retinoids), fatty acids, and zinc, which nourish the skin and stimulate new cell production. Soothes Sensitive Skin: It has anti-inflammatory properties that calm redness, sunburn, and skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis. Anti-Ageing Properties: The antioxidants, specifically Vitamin E, help fight free radicals, protect against UV-induced damage, and reduce the appearance of fine lines. Improves Complexion: Regular use helps even out skin tone and improves overall skin health. Reduces Marks: It is used to minimise the appearance of scars and stretch marks. Non-Comedogenic (low): With a low comedogenic rating, it is generally safe for all skin types, including acne-prone, though a patch test is recommended. Vitamin E benefits skin by acting as a powerful antioxidant, fighting free radicals, intensely moisturising by strengthening the skin barrier to lock in hydration, soothing inflammation, protecting against UV damage, promoting wound healing, improving elasticity, and reducing signs of aging like fine lines and dark spots, making skin softer and more supple. Key Benefits: Antioxidant Power: Neutralises harmful free radicals from sun and pollution, preventing damage that leads to dullness and wrinkles. Deep Moisturisation: Strengthens the skin's lipid barrier, reducing water loss and keeping skin hydrated, soft, and smooth. Anti-Ageing: Protects collagen and elastin, maintains skin's firmness, reduces fine lines, and helps prevent age spots. Sun Damage Protection: Enhances sunscreen effectiveness and helps reduce redness and damage from UV exposure. Healing & Soothing: Calms irritated skin, reduces inflammation, and aids in scar healing. Improves Texture: Contributes to a more supple, elastic, and youthful complexion. Aromatherapy essential oils with skin benefits!: - Sweet orange essential oil benefits the skin by cleansing, reducing acne, and brightening the complexion due to its antibacterial, astringent, and antioxidant properties. When properly diluted with a carrier oil, it can improve the appearance of dull or oily skin, help fade dark spots, and promote a more youthful look by boosting collagen production. However, it is phototoxic, so you should avoid direct sun exposure after application. Key skin benefits: Antioxidant and brightening: The oil contains Vitamin C, which helps fight free radicals that cause premature aging. It can also help even out skin tone and reduce the appearance of dark spots and hyperpigmentation. Antibacterial and cleansing: It has antibacterial properties that help fight acne-causing bacteria, keeping pores clear. Its cleansing properties can remove dirt and grime. Astringent and firming: Sweet orange oil acts as a natural astringent, which can help tighten the skin and refine pores. It may also promote cell growth and collagen synthesis, contributing to firmer skin. Like all of our products, this cleanser will compliment whichever masks, oils and creams works for you, but it does work in perfect synergy with our Celestial, Anhydrous Facial Clay Mask, our Solaris, Facial Day Concentrate and our Calendula, Luminous Facial Day Cream. Directions for Use: Application: with dry hands and a dry face (do not pre-wet your skin, as the oil needs direct contact with sebum and makeup to work), apply and massage, dispensing a quarter-sized amount of the oil into your palms. Gently massage the oil onto your face and neck for 1–2 minutes using upward, circular motions. Steam: Run a clean washcloth under very warm (not scalding) water and wring it out. Place the warm, damp cloth over your face for 30–60 seconds to open pores and allow the oil to loosen grime. Remove: Use the same warm cloth to gently wipe away the oil, makeup, and dirt. Repeat this process (rinse cloth, wipe) until the skin feels clean but nourished. Finish: Pat skin dry. No toner or heavy moisturiser is usually needed, as the almond oil leaves a light, protective barrier. 97% Certified Organic Ingredients: *Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil, *Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil, *Tocopherol (Vitamin E), Citrus Aurantium Dulcis Peel (Sweet Orange) Oil Expressed *Certified Organic Allergen Warning: Contains Citral, Limonene and Linalool (naturally present in essential oils).

Rich in chlorophyll, amino acids, and vitamins, this nutrient-dense algae boosts cellular repair, detoxifies the body from heavy metals, and protects against environmental stressors. Key Skin Benefits of Chlorella Powder: Boosts Collagen and Elasticity: Chlorella stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, which improves skin firmness, reduces fine lines, and helps reverse ageing signs. Deep Hydration and Barrier Repair: Due to its amino acid profile, chlorella supports the skin's epidermal barrier, enhancing moisture retention and repairing dry, textured skin. Reduces Inflammation and Acne: Its anti-inflammatory properties soothe irritated skin and assist with managing inflammatory conditions like acne. Detoxification and Radiance: Chlorella binds to heavy metals and environmental toxins, which can reduce breakouts and improve overall skin clarity. Protection Against Free Radicals: The high chlorophyll and antioxidant content fights oxidative stress caused by UV light and pollution. Promotes Cellular Regeneration: Chlorella Growth Factor (CGF) accelerates cell renewal, resulting in healthier, more rejuvenated skin. - French green clay offers numerous skin benefits, including cleansing pores, drawing out impurities, absorbing excess oil, and gently exfoliating. It's particularly beneficial for oily and acne-prone skin, helping to mattify the skin and reduce inflammation. Here's a more detailed look at the benefits: Cleansing and Purifying: French green clay's absorbent properties help draw out impurities, excess oil, and sebum from the skin, effectively cleansing pores. Exfoliation: It gently exfoliates, removing dead skin cells and revealing brighter, smoother skin. Oil Control: By absorbing excess oil, it helps mattify the skin and reduce shine, making it a popular choice for oily and acne-prone skin. Soothing and Anti-inflammatory: Green clay can soothe irritated and inflamed skin, helping to calm redness and discomfort. Mineral Rich: French green clay is rich in minerals, which nourish the skin and provide essential nutrients. Toning and Firming: It can help tighten pores, stimulate blood flow, and improve skin tone and firmness. Reduces Blemishes: It can be used as a spot treatment to help heal blemishes and reduce their appearance. Hydration: While primarily known for absorbing oil, green clay can also hydrate the skin, especially when sourced from mineral springs or near the sea. - Dead Sea mud is rich in minerals like magnesium, calcium, and potassium, which detoxify, deeply cleanse, and hydrate the skin while reducing inflammation. It improves skin barrier function, exfoliates dead cells, balances oil production, and can soothe conditions like eczema, psoriasis, and acne. It acts as a natural purifier, leaving skin firmer and more radiant. Key Benefits of Dead Sea Mud on the Skin: Deep Cleansing & Purifying: It acts as a "natural vacuum cleaner," using high absorption to pull dirt, impurities, and excess oil from deep within the pores. Intense Hydration & Mineralisation: The mud is rich in magnesium, which enhances skin barrier function and hydration levels, combating dry, flaky skin. Acne Treatment & Prevention: It has antimicrobial properties, specifically fighting P. acnes bacteria, which reduces breakouts and cleans clogged pores. Inflammation & Sensitivity Reduction: Minerals such as bromide and magnesium soothe irritation, redness, and inflammation, making it beneficial for skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis. Anti-Ageing & Firming: Regular use can increase skin elasticity, improve skin metabolism, and improve texture, contributing to a firmer and younger-looking appearance. Gentle Exfoliation: The fine texture removes dead skin cells, promoting cell turnover and reducing dullness Directions for Use: Using a dry (powdered) clay mask involves mixing it to a creamy consistency, applying it to clean skin, and rinsing it off before it becomes completely dry and itchy. 1. Preparation: Cleanse: Start with a clean face to remove oil and dirt, allowing for better absorption. Using warm water or a warm towel first can help open pores. Mix the Mask: In a clean bowl fill (using the scoop provided) with dry clay and use a small amount of water or liquid (such as tea, honey, rose water, yogurt, or apple cider vinegar-or, for an intensive treatment, we recommend using our Seaweed, Facial Day Concentrate as the liquid part). Create Consistency: Add liquid slowly, mixing until it reaches a smooth, creamy mud-like consistency. 2. Application: Apply Evenly: Use your fingers or a mask brush to apply a thin, even layer to your face and neck, avoiding the sensitive eye and lip areas. Targeted Application: If you have combination skin, apply a thicker layer to the oily T-zone and a thinner layer elsewhere 3. Timing: Wait: Let the mask sit for 5 to 15 minutes. Don't Let it Fully Dry: According to experts, you should never let a clay mask dry to the point of cracking or flaking. Remove it when it is still slightly damp to avoid over-drying and dehydrating your skin. Sensations: Tightening is normal, but if it causes pain or intense burning, remove it immediately. 4. Removal & Post-Care: Softening: Use warm water and a washcloth to gently soften the mask before wiping it off to avoid pulling the skin. Rinse: Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. Moisturise: Immediately apply a moisturiser or serum, as clay masks can remove natural oils, leaving skin dry. Using our Sea Minerals, Repairing Facial Day Cream will compliment this facial mask. Recommended Frequency: Oily Skin: 1–2 times per week, Dry/Sensitive Skin: Once every 1–2 weeks. Key Tip: Only mix enough for one treatment to avoid waste. 100% Certified Organic Ingredients: *Chlorella Vulgaris (Chlorella) Powder, *Kaolin (French Green Clay), *Maris Limus (Dead Sea Mud) Extract *Certified Organic Discontinue use if irritation occurs.

"Sacred Earth" is the perfect choice for more mature skin types. Combining reishi, shiitake, and stinging nettle, it offers a potent, concentrated treatment designed to soothe inflammation, deeply hydrate, and protect the skin barrier against environmental damage. Naturally scented and brings with it a nutty, earthy aroma. Comes with a stainless steel spoon. Legally registered on the Submit Cosmetic Products Notifications Portal (SCPN), UK cosmetic product number: UKCP-48155267 This facial mask's wonderful skin benefits!: - Reishi mushroom offers numerous skin benefits, primarily due to its rich composition of polysaccharides, triterpenoids, and antioxidants. These compounds work to provide calming, hydrating, and protective effects for the skin. Key benefits include: Soothing and Calming: Triterpenes in Reishi have potent anti-inflammatory properties that help calm irritated skin, reduce visible redness, and manage conditions like acne, eczema, and rosacea. Deep Hydration and Barrier Support: Rich in beta-glucans (a type of polysaccharide), Reishi acts as a powerful humectant, drawing moisture into the skin and helping to synthesise ceramides, which strengthens the skin's protective barrier to prevent moisture loss. Antioxidant Protection: Reishi is packed with antioxidants like ergothioneine and glutathione that help neutralize free radicals caused by environmental stressors (like UV rays and pollution), which can cause premature aging. Anti-Aging Support: By fighting free radicals, supporting collagen production, and enhancing skin elasticity, Reishi can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, leading to a firmer, more youthful look. Skin Brightening: Reishi has been shown to inhibit tyrosinase, an enzyme involved in melanin production, which helps to fade dark spots and hyperpigmentation for a more even skin tone. Promotes Healing: The immunomodulatory effects of Reishi's polysaccharides can support the skin's natural healing processes and tissue regeneration. Reishi is a versatile ingredient found in various skincare products like serums, moisturisers, and masks, and is generally considered safe for most skin types, including sensitive or acne-prone skin. - Shiitake mushrooms offer skin benefits like brightening dullness and fading dark spots thanks to kojic acid, while their antioxidants (like glutamine) fight aging signs, and beta-glucans provide hydration, supporting a healthy skin barrier and fighting inflammation, leading to smoother, clearer, and more resilient skin. Key Skin Benefits: Brightening & Even Tone: Kojic acid helps fade dark spots, scars, and hyperpigmentation for a radiant complexion. Anti-Aging: Antioxidants protect against environmental damage, reducing premature fine lines and wrinkles. Hydration: Beta-glucans attract moisture, keeping skin hydrated, similar to hyaluronic acid. Anti-Inflammatory: Compounds in shiitake soothe redness and discomfort, easing inflamed skin. Skin Barrier Support: Supports the skin's natural defence system, keeping it healthy and resilient. Collagen Support: Contains amino acids that help improve collagen quality for firmer skin. Antibacterial Properties: May help inhibit bacteria, contributing to clearer skin. How it Works: Shiitake extract is rich in kojic acid, zinc, selenium, and essential amino acids, which work together to lighten, firm, and protect the skin. Its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties combat free radicals, while beta-glucans lock in moisture. - Dried nettle has many potential benefits for the skin, including: Anti-inflammatory: Nettle can soothe inflamed skin and reduce redness, dermatitis, eczema, psoriasis, and rashes. Antibacterial: Nettle can fight infections, such as pimples, and prevent them from recurring. Antioxidant: Nettle can help with skin aging by reducing the appearance of wrinkles and age spots. Astringent: Nettle can help with oily skin, and is milder than alcohol, vinegar, or citrus. Purifying: Nettle extract can purify the skin. Soothing: Nettle extract can soothe the skin.
