Glow - Good Earth Exfoliant Powder
Skin Type: Dry, Congested, Discolored
Exfoliation is a valuable treatment in skincare for unclogging pores, removing dull, dead skin cells and deep cleansing the skin. However, scrubbing your face like it's the kitchen floor is not ideal. Your facial skin is tender and easily abraded, and physical exfoliants can often be too aggressive, leaving micro-tears in the skin. Exfoliating your face is something to be done delicately by the right ingredients. Glow fulfills that important job for you easily. This preservative-free, powdered Vitamin C skin treatment has powdered organic herbs and grains, clays, fruit enzymes to gently sweep over skin and loosen debris without damage to skin. The acids, enzymes and fiber work hard for you so you don't have to.

Many exfoliants perform just one function, but not ours. Glow is versatile and counteracts the appearance of irritation while it works. Organic Oat flour creates a soothing, Beta-glucan rich base for the rest of our very active ingredients. Organic Astragalus root joins it to improve the appearance of inflammation.
Powdered Organic Coconut water adds Vitamin C and a range of balancing minerals. Just like it hydrates your insides it performs the same for your skin when applied topically. Coconut water also contains Kinetin, a substance that can improve discoloration in skin and decrease the appearance of wrinkling. These properties make coconut water a valuable skin saver!
Papain and 8% Vitamin C star as the really powerful exfoliating agents. Papain is an enzyme from Papaya that breaks down proteins. It gently works on dead skin cells in synergy with Vitamin C, which as an acid loosens the "glue" that holds the Stratum Corneum layer of skin cells together, allowing them to lift away easily. The level of Vitamin C in this powder is a potent contributor to the appearance of skin. While this product is excellent for congested skin and blackheads we do not recommend it be used on cystic acne or broken skin due to the possibility of further irritation.
This product has no added scent and will smell slightly earthy/oaty/herbaceous when dry and a little stronger when wet. We chose to add no scents so the product would be the most applicable for different skin types, including allergy-prone skin.
Ingredients: Avena Sativa* (oat) Kernal powder, Cocos nucifera* endosperm (coconut water), Papain, Ascorbic Acid, Acacia Senegal* (Acacia Gum), Bentonite, Diatomaceous Earth, Cocos nucifera* (coconut) fruit powder, Oryza sativa* (brown rice), Panax ginseng extract, Coffea Arabica (green coffee) extract, Astragalus membranaceus* root, Olea europaea* (olive) leaf, Curcuma longa* (turmeric) root, Maltodextrin
Please note: the turmeric content in this blend may stain washcloths. Rinsing with simply hands and water will remove the product adequately from skin and avoid damage to linens.
Ritual: Remove makeup and moisten the skin. Place 1/2 tsp of powder in your palm. Wet it and mix with fingers to create a paste. Apply to damp skin alone or mix into your facial cleanser. Massage the powder into the skin for at least 2 to 3 minutes with gentle pressure, avoiding the eye area. When the paste begins to dry remove it with warm water and gently pat dry. Moisturize to finish the skin. Optimal usage of 2 to 3 times per week.
This product is very active and should not be used as a daily cleanser, or irritation may result. For many people with normal skin type once per week may be adequate. More frequent usage would be for individuals with skin that is sluggish and congested, hyperpigmented, or mature with fine lines to assist with rejuvenating these specific issues.
