Beneficial for all skin types:
Healing Balm: Julie loves using this balm as a healing night mask. If you have any redness, inflammation or sensitivity - apply our Healing balm at night (after your serum + moisturizer/balm) and wake up with calm skin. It works so well on pimples (cystic especially), small red bumps, hives, rosacea, redness caused by dryness, and any irritation.
Regenerating + Stimulating Exfoliator: Everyone can exfoliate every 3 days. It helps stimulate cellular turnover and reduces dullness. Your products won't penetrate the skin if there is a thick layer of dead skin on the surface, so make sure to gently exfoliate regularly for best results!
Detoxifying + Clarifying Clay Mask: A clay mask will help diminish the appearance of black heads, help reduce cystic pimples, soften and mineralize the skin. This clay mask is great for all skin types, and can easily be customized to suit your specific needs. View our article on Customizing Your Clay Mask here. Aim to use our clay mask once a week.
Radiant Body Oil: This fast absorbing body oil is great for all skin types. Our blend of beautiful plant-based essential oils quickly absorb deep into the skin to effectively nourish and soften, boost cellular circulation, and gently detoxify the body. The light and invigorating botanical fragrance will enliven and empower your spirit, leaving you balanced and revitalized.
Full Brow Serum: Our Full Brow serum is specifically formulated to help fortify hair growth and encourage fuller looking brows. Blended with powerful and active pure botanical extracts and anti-oxidants, our nutritive blend conditions brows and deepens hair colour after application. Use twice daily to achieve stronger, healthy looking eyebrows with less breakage.
