French Body Scrub 100 ml

The body scrub with Breton shell powder, kaolin, beeswax, and French plant oils provides effective renewal while simultaneously nourishing the skin with valuable nutrients. Result: Smooth, supple, and radiant baby-soft skin.

• The shell powder offers a pleasant exfoliating effect, gently smoothing rough skin and reducing unevenness. The high calcium content of the powder supports and strengthens the epidermis barrier function and helps maintain the skin's moisture levels.
• The natural clay minerals kaolin and illite, with their fine texture, remove impurities, dirt particles, and skin oils from the pores and help prevent pimples.
• Olive oil, sunflower oil, and beeswax provide moisture, valuable vitamins, antioxidants, and fatty acids, leaving the skin well-nourished and beautifully cared for.
• Regular exfoliation improves oxygen supply to the skin and promotes cell renewal. The skin becomes softer and more radiant.

The shells are hand-collected on the beaches of the Breton coast, then crushed and processed into powder. By the way, this body scrub is the perfect partner for summer. By removing all impurities from the skin, a tan develops faster.

Usage

• Apply a small amount 1 to 2 times a week to dry or damp skin, massage in circular motions, and rinse off with lukewarm water.
• Focus on areas where the skin tends to be thicker or rougher, such as heels, elbows, legs and knees, shoulders, etc.
• Don’t forget to care for your skin well after exfoliating, e.g., with a body oil or a body lotion.
• The body scrub is the ideal partner for your summer. For an even tan, perform a thorough exfoliation before your first sunbath. By removing all impurities from the skin, the tan will develop faster.
• Use within 6 months after opening.

Active Ingredients

• Sunflower oil (Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil) has a high content of linoleic acid, antioxidants, and vitamin E. It supports wound healing, has antibacterial properties, and helps the skin regenerate. The oil combats skin impurities with vitamins A and D. It is well absorbed and does not clog pores. For hair, it is a natural moisturizer that strengthens hair, promotes growth, eliminates frizz, and adds shine.
• Kaolin is one of the natural healing clays. For cleansing, its mild abrasive effect is used on skin impurities, as the powdery structure removes dead/keratinized skin cells. Kaolin’s grain is much finer than other healing clays, making it suitable for thin and sensitive skin. Kaolin also absorbs dirt particles from pores along with skin oils, helping to prevent pimples and blackheads.
• Olive oil (Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit / Leaf Oil) provides moisture and creates a soft skin feel. It consists of 85% essential fatty acids with a high proportion of linoleic acid that supports the skin’s protective barrier. Vitamin E and polyphenols are powerful free radical scavengers and protect against premature skin aging.
• Vitamin E / Tocopherol enables long-lasting moisture retention between cells. This strong antioxidant neutralizes harmful free radicals and can inhibit oil oxidation, preventing blackheads. Vitamin E also promotes cell regeneration and strengthens the natural function of the skin’s protective barrier.
• Finely ground shell powder from Brittany provides a pleasant exfoliating effect, gently smoothing rough skin and reducing unevenness. The high calcium content of the powder supports and strengthens the epidermis barrier function and helps maintain the skin’s moisture levels.
• Beeswax (Cera Flava, Cera Alba) – The wax forms a protective film on the skin, binding moisture without clogging pores. Beeswax also has a mild antiseptic effect and can soothe inflammation. It calms irritated skin and can even help with eczema. The vitamin A contained in the wax promotes cell renewal and thus counteracts premature skin aging.
