Fighting dry, flaky, broken out, or dull-looking skin on your arms, legs, back, or chest? A simple 3-step body care routine can help exfoliate, clarify, and moisturize your skin for good.
1. No Plans Desert Rose Mask
If you have any acne, inflammation, or redness in areas of your skin, you should always start off by applying a gentle and detoxing clay mask directly to the areas of concern.
We recommend No Plans desert rose mask. Its base is kaolin clay, a gentle clay that actually adsorbs impurities -- holding them to its surface so they can be washed away -- without stripping away natural oils.
It also contains:
- Antioxidants -- from rose hip, raspberry, and lemon peel -- that can plump and protect the skin.
- MSM, a natural compound that strengthens the skin’s natural barrier and promotes cell permeability so active ingredients can penetrate the skin.
- Wild geranium and witch hazel, natural astringents that can get rid of impurities and reduce inflammation.
- Rose flower extract, which reduces redness and promotes cellular hydration.
2. Welcome to the Scrub Coconut Body Scrub
Step 2: A gentle and evenly exfoliating body scrub to moisturize the skin and slough off dead cells. The key here is to start with a sugar-based scrub. Unlike salt --which can actually scratch and cause micro-tears in the skin -- sugar is much smoother and more gentle on the skin. What’s more, sugar is a natural humectant, meaning it can draw moisture into the skin. It’s also a natural source of glycolic acid, which allows it to chemically exfoliate the skin as well.
On top of that, Welcome to the Scrub contains:
- Virgin coconut oil, which can lock moisture into the skin
- Vitamin E to fight free radicals, get rid of dark spots, soothe acne, and provide major antioxidant protection
- Neem seed oil, which can reduce the appearance of scars, calm inflammation, and even heal wounds
- Sunflower seed oil, which neutralizes free radicals, restores essential fatty acids, builds the skin’s natural barrier, and provides anti-inflammatory benefits.
3. Coco Cocoa Creme Body Butter
Finally, while your skin is still damp, apply Coco Cocoa Creme Body Butter.
This triple whipped body butter is packed with powerful humectant, emollient, and occlusive ingredients designed to provide lasting hydration without leaving you greasy or broken out. The stars? Shea butter, coconut butter, and cocoa butter, all of which work to:
- Calm skin
- Restore softness
- Hydrate
- Provide essential fatty acids
- Repair the skin’s natural barrier
These powerhouse body butters are made even more effective thanks to hydrating and protecting ingredients like aloe leaf juice, pumpkin seed, jojoba, and green tea.
