January is upon us and it seems everyone is detoxing, so this week Julie has found her four favourite body scrubs and firming cremes – perfect for international detox month!
1) Geranium Leaf Body Scrub from Aesop
“This stimulating gel-based exfoliant’s precise blend of Pumice and Bamboo Stem sloughs away dead surface cells while botanical oils purify and calm skin, imparting a polished outer self no matter how rough the day”
2) Smooth and Firm Body Butter from ESPA
“This richly hydrating body butter melts into skin to help nourish, refine skin texture and restore the skin’s suppleness. Superactive™ larch extract helps firm and smooth, while pumpkin seed extract enhances elasticity and helps diminish the appearance of stretch marks. Rosehip and argan oil, rich in Omega 3, 6 and 9 and antioxidant Vitamin E, work together to soften, smooth and rejuvenate.”
3. The Body Refiner from La Mer
“This luxurious cream refiner retexturises the appearance of skin and boosts the look of skin’s brightness. Pure diamond powder and polished sea quartz instantly lift away dull cells to reveal a fresh new looking surface while fermented sea mud helps purify. Massage in circular motions. Rinse well. Gentle enough for even sensitive skin, The Body Refiner can be used once or twice a week. Follow with a Crème de la Mer body moisturiser.”
4) Facial exfoliating Mask from Dr. Sebagh
“A combination of Azelaic and lactic acid to exfoliate dead layers of skin for a faster cell turnover. An excellent pre-party ritual, skin looks instantly lighter, brighter and smoother. For that wow factor of highly polished skin use once or twice a week.”
