“A high performance natural soap bar crafted with hardworking Black Clay, Activated Charcoal and Pumice Stone to deeply clean, cleanse and remove dead skin, and Australian Sweet Almond and Olive oils to hydrate, regenerate and help improve skin condition”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (sodium macadamiaseedate) and should be able to cleanse the skin gently. Still keep in mind that any cleansing can disrupt the skin barrier, and most people do not need to cleanse their skin more than once per day.
ExfoliationNo ingredient credited for this claimNot delivered
“Exfoliating Hand Body Bar”
This product does not contain effective exfoliating ingredients. It might be able to deliver physical exfoliation, that is scrub off some of the dead cells on the surface of the skin. We do not recommend physical exfoliation, because it is not uniform (some bits of skin can get exfoliated too much while others not at all). It can also traumatize the skin and aggrevate acne and other skin conditions.
