Bamboo Powder – Exfoliant

Bamboo Powder is our most gentle exfoliant. This white, superfine and 100% natural powder is suitable for:

• face and very sensitive skin.

How to use exfoliating powders?

To make a body scrub:

• Simply mix an exfoliating powder suitable for the body in your favourite vegetable oil
• Apply, gently scrub and rinse

To make a face scrub:

• Mix 2 drops of Aloe Vera Gel with 1 drop of Jojoba or Argan oil, add a gentle exfoliating powder
• Apply, gently scrub and rinse

Adjust the quantity of exfoliating powder depending on the sensitivity of your skin. Remember, you should always use less exfoliating powders on your face than on your body. We recommend not exceeding 10% in your body scrubs, and 2 to 5% in your facial scrubs.

Why do we only sell natural exfoliating powders?

Unfortunately, plastics are not only used for packaging, they can also be found inside some products. A sad example is the use of plastic microbeads.

Microbeads are really tiny plastic particles usually smaller than two millimeters. They can be found in face soaps, body washes, toothpastes, makeup, lip gloss and nail polish. Unfortunately, most wastewater treatments don’t filter out microbeads, and they get discharged into waterways and then eaten by fish. Not only can microbeads poison marine species, they may also enter the food chain as humans eat the same fish species that have eaten plastic microbeads.

There are so many natural alternatives to microbeads! Making a 100% natural scrub is easy and it takes seconds. Give it a try, and your skin and our beautiful planet will love it!
