Almond Rose Exfoliant
This gentle manual Almond Rose Exfoliant: Hydrating Nutrients doubles as an intensely hydrating and nourishment rich mask. Gentle grain exfoliators remove dull, dead skin while roots and petals infuse with hydration, vitamins, and antioxidants to reveal a soft, plump and dewy glow.
This dual Exfoliant/Mask is a bit of an unsung hero. Its ingredients are minimalist, but this allows the quality and potency of the plants to really shine. The combination of both Oats and Almonds is ideal because it provides both water-based nutrition like B Vitamins and oil-based nutrition like Vitamin E. While most manual exfoliants can scratch or be too aggressive for delicate facial skin, Almonds and Oats are incredibly soft and gentle making this exfoliant beneficial for all skin types and symptoms. Marshmallow gives this mask a unique gelatinous quality when water is added, and it offers intense hydration by mimicking the action of hyaluronic acid. Locally farmed heirloom Rose petals bring Vitamin C, anthocyanins, and other beneficial polyphenols to this well balanced blend of plants. And most notably, this mask also contains Nettle, our favorite and most sustainable superfood. Nettle contains essential amino acids, enzymes, vitamins and minerals that are all essential building blocks for skin health.

Quick Exfoliant: Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon of Almond Rose Exfoliant in with your Cleanser for an exfoliating cleanser. Or 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 Almond Rose Exfoliant 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.
