RATING 4 TREES
Product Link:
I have been using this product for about two months now and am pretty satisfied
. I bought mine at vitamine shoppe, but you can get it from the Derme-E website, and I have seen it at whole foods.
PROS:
+my skin feels smoother and soft just after I’ve used it.
+it’s meant to be as an alternative to spa treatments so could potentially save some people some big bucks
+minimal natural ingredients
+seems to be vegan
+little to no scent for those that are sensitive
+user/eco friendly packaging +local CA company/family owned
CONS:
-contains silica
-contains phenoxyethanol
-other random unrecognizable ingredients
-I have not seen a difference in fine lines
INGREDIENTS:
Water (Agua), Magnesium Oxide, Silica, Volcanic Sand, Pearl Powder, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Cetearyl Glucoside, Glyceryl Stearate, Citrus Aurantifolia (Lime) Juice, Citrus Medica Limonium (Lemon) Peel Oil, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Oil, Glycerin, Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Oil, Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil, Caprylic Acid, Glycine, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Xanthan Gum, Citrus Tangerina (Tangerine) Peel Oil, Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E), Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Potassium Sorbate
FINAL VERDICT: In spite of the silica and pheynoxyethanol, I do still recommend this scrub. I wouldn’t call it amazing, but I hate yet to find a suitable replacement. It is great for helping to get rid of the flaky skin that follows more powerful facials. I wouldn’t call it a replacement for micodermabrasion, but it is a nice supplement.
