Benefits:
PINEAPPLE :
A plant native to South America, the pineapple was introduced into the West Indies by the American Indians and was discovered by Christopher Columbus in Guadeloupe in 1493. It belongs to the Bromeliaceae family and is renowned primarily for its juicy, refreshing fruit. The name pineapple comes from the American Indian Guarani word, naná naná, which means the perfume of all perfumes. It was originally used in the West Indies as a poultice to accelerate the healing of wounds.
Rich in bromelain (an enzyme that breaks down large proteins), pineapples are reputed for their slimming properties. The fruit is prized for its ability to purify, soothe and restore radiance to your tint, reinforced by the exfoliating effect of the fruit acid it contains. The fruits sugars are renowned for their moisturizing and softening properties. As a natural source of vitamins, fruit acids and enzymes, fresh pineapple is an excellent foodstuff as well as the perfect partner for your skin. Used in cosmetics, it is reputed for its antioxidant, regenerative, moisturizing, smoothing and draining properties.
GREEN CLAY :
Used for thousands of years, clay is a mild, naturally occurring mineral product. It is the result of a long process of erosion taking place within the natural environment. Produced from the combined action of wind and water, it is extracted from the ground, dried in the sun and ground to a very fine powder. Green clay is rich in trace elements with purifying, mattifying, regenerative and remineralising qualities. It is also ideally suited for oily or a combination skin due to its absorbing properties (the most effective of all clays), with the ability to absorb impurities and excess sebum.
Rich in minerals, the green clay or illite is composed of hydrated aluminium silicate and iron oxide, and contains a large quantity of silicon. This clay is a natural mineral belonging to the phyllosilicate family (similar to talc and mica minerals), and its layered structure results in excellent absorption and concealing properties. It is also able to fix molecules to its surface, once in contact with the skin. The clay re-mineralises and detoxifies the skin by replacing the skins impurities and toxins with its own mineral salts. In cosmetics, green clay is usually used as a base for masks, poultices and wraps, for complexion boosters and toning treatments.
