Regular use of this antioxidant-rich flower is renowned for helping to tighten the skin and slow down the appearance of ageing, stimulating collagen production, and minimising the appearance of fine lines, pigmentation and blemishes.
Hibiscus flower powder You've most likely seen this bright beauty on tropical islands when you're horizontal on a deck chair looking up at a coconut tree with the ocean breeze caressing your skin. Perhaps you've plucked one to place behind your ears? We love hibiscus for the effective exfoliating and purifying actions that help to encourage a fresh, smooth, flawless looking complexion. You can thank the natural content of alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) and antioxidants that help to protect the skin from environmental stressors and help to minimise the appearance of pores.
Elderflower powder This pretty little creamy white flower is bursting with antioxidants, vitamins and flavonoids to help balance excess oil production to prevent breakouts, whilst softening and smoothing fine lines at the same time. We're continually amazed at how oh-so-clever nature is. Especially when it comes to promoting a healthy, clear, firm complexion.
Marshmallow root powder Not to be mistaken for those white fluffy soft and sweet campfire favourites, marshmallow root is something quite different. Revered by herbalists for centuries this plant powder is loved for it's anti-inflammatory properties, helping to calm redness and irritation whilst improving hydration. The ultimate skin soother.
Retreating in to the bathroom once a week (usually on the weekend when I have a quiet moment) to create a few minutes of me-time is one of my favourite at-home spa rituals. It not only gives me a chance to gift a little love from me to me, but also the chance to let go of any stress from the week, to recentre, to focus on my breathing, and to give my skin the TLC it so deserves. This is where the Be Genki exfoliant and mask comes in. I take a spoonful of the powder and combine it with water to create a smooth mousse-like paste. Sometimes I add a little honey (but please be mindful to choose a medicinal honey, like the one we stock here at Be Naturallyou - Australia's Manuka. Please DO NOT use supermarket honey.) I do love to take the opportunity of applying a mask to then indulge in a long soak in the bath. What I love most about this Be Genki exfoliant & mask is how it leaves my skin afterwards. My pores appear smaller. My skin is oh so soft and smooth. My fine lines softened. And hey .. it's oh so versatile. So when I am having one of those weeks whereby I don't have the time to loll about in the bath for 20 minutes. A quick 5 minute scrub with this botanical clay powder does the trick too. Love it! - Samantha Sargent, founder of Be Naturallyou
Once (or twice) a week, after cleansing your skin with our Purifying Cleansing Oil, mix one teaspoon of the powder with equal parts water to form a softening mousse. Massage gently on to damp skin with your fingertips. Sit back and relax for 10 – 15 minutes whilst the botanical clay blend revitalises your complexion.
Rinse in the shower for ease, or over the basin with warm water. Follow with a spritz of the Intense Hydration Treatment and Rejuvenating Beauty Oil.
