Restorative, step by step routine for sensitive and reactive skin
At African Botanics, we understand the importance of a consistent and balanced healthy skin routine. All skin types will benefit from the use of a single well-formulated and pure product, but our skin will thrive and rise to healthier heights when we combine certain products together which will energize and compliment each other as they nourish, refresh and revitalize our skin. We invest in so many areas of our lives, it is very important that we invest in the health of our skin with a regular and balanced skin health and wellness routine.
While the healthy skin products we choose are very important, the order which these products are applied is also important to ensure we optimize the creation and maintenance of that pillar of good skin care, the protective skin barrier.
Step 1/ Cleanse and transform
Pure Marula Cleansing Oil is an excellent choice to start your routine. It is ideal for sensitive skin, rosacea and is also great for really dry and mature skin. It is non irritating and contains many anti-inflammatory ingredients. It is infused with Marula and Kalahari Melon seed oil to reduce redness and calm the skin during cleansing without stripping the skin. This soothing cleanser is enriched with Olive Oil, Vitamin E, Chamomile, Lavender, Patchouli and Frankincense which help improve skin tone and texture. Changing up your cleanser is always our first recommendation for modifying your routine for the cooler temperatures as well.
2/ Soothe and revive
Rose Treatment Essence saturates the skin with moisture and re-balances its pH after cleansing before any serum or face oil. It is highly concentrated and contains a blend of natural humectants, biocompatible Hyaluronic Acid to plump the skin enabling a deeper penetration into our protective skin barrier. This extra hydration from the Rose Treatment Essence allows our skin to absorb more nutrients from Neroli infused Marula Oil (step 3) even more than usual, making it more effective. If you are looking for super hydrated, firm and dewy skin using them together will keep your skin barrier healthy and happy while calming and brightening your skin.
3/ Repair and balance
Neroli infused Marula Oil will noticeably help improve the appearance of the skin and will further amplify its performance if used together with the Rose Treatment Essence. Neroli helps repair and rebuild the skin barrier while supplementing the skin with potent antioxidants, phytonutrients, vitamin E, ceramides and essential fatty acids.
Rose Treatment Essence is designed to penetrate the skin quickly to allow for deeper absorption helping the Neroli infused Marula Oil deliver the multi-level nourishment, hydration, nutrition and skin brightening. Pure Marula Cleansing Oil and The Rose Treatment Essence prepare and prime the skin for the Neroli infused Marula Oil and ensure that the skin’s barrier is well restored and protected.
