Exfoliators & Polishes

by

Crystal Clear

Exfoliators & Polishes

 Exfoliation is key to clear, glowing skin because as we age the dead skin cells become more compact and the body is slower to shed skin cells and generate new ones. When the dead skin cells pole up it can leave the skin looking dull, rough and dry. Furthermore, it can result in excess oil and clogged pores, leading to blemishes and acne. Regular exfoliation allows the removal of that build up and allows better permeability of your moisturiser to be more effective rather than simply sit on the surface.

BESTSELLER Oxygen Face Polish

200ml

Crystal Clear’s fabulous, gentle Oxygen Polish is suitable for all skin types, especially problematic and sensitive skin. Containing the active ingredient Oxylastil, which is a known oxygen carrier and has excellent anti-bacterial properties while Jojoba beads gently exfoliate. Used daily, this radiance-restoring exfoliator buffs and smooths leaving the skin polishes, revitalised and rejuvenated.

Moisturising complex softens and limits moisture loss and helps cells to retain water while Vitamin E protects the skin. Oxygen polish is an all-round super skin buffer and you will become addicted to the fabulous polished feel to the skin even after the first application.

  • Radiance-restoring.
  • Vitamin E protects the skin.
  • Suitable for all skin types.

Advanced Nutrition Programme – New Skin Vit C

by

Advanced Nutrition Programme

New Skin Vit C

 

 

For decades, vitamin C has been correctly celebrated for its multifactorial benefits to our skin and overall well-being. Following extensive research, Advanced Nutrition Programme have decided to pair vitamin C with the emerging nutrient profile of acerola berry as well as zinc which has been validated by academia for years.

ANP Skin Vit C has been updated and now powered by three ingredient technologies: vitamin C, zinc and acerola berry in a daily dose capsule to help brighten dull-looking skin. All three ingredients are protected in a clean, plant-based capsule and suitable for vegan and vegetarian lifestyles.

In topical skincare, vitamin C is revered for its skin-supporting properties with formulas recommended to brighten, lighten and smooth. The inherent qualities of ingested vitamin C offer notable support to our skin and emerging research showcases depleted levels in ageing and photodamaged skin. As well as skin benefits, vitamin C is celebrated for the immune system and offers over-arching wellbeing benefits.

Zinc supports our skin, hair and nails, and is also revered for its antioxidant protection. Acerola berry is an exciting addition to ANP ingredient library as it boasts rich nutrient values with recent research explaining that it features 50-100 times more vitamin C than oranges. Emerging studies have also reported reviewed potential benefits on UVB induced pigmentation.

By synergising these ingredients together, Skin Vit C offers an array of benefits to all skin types and is recommended for anyone looking to enliven dull skin and those concerned with premature ageing, uneven skin tone and environmental aggressors.
