It’s time to Spring Clean your skin

There are so many things we love about winter in Adelaide, not least the chance to cosy up in a warm space with a glass of red…a little indulgence never hurt anybody, true?
But then rolls around spring and we realise all that artificial heating and the sometimes blistering cold wind have wrought havoc on our skin. And we’re not just talking our faces, have you noticed how scaly the skin on your body can become from being covered up and maybe sparsely moisturised owing to it being a little too chilly to stay sans clothing for too long?

Spring gives us the perfect excuse to overhaul the skin we’re in, sloughing away all the dead cells that sit on top of our newer ones, dulling our glow. Temperatures are heading upward, which means that hemlines soon will be too. It’s time to bring out the big guns of exfoliation for a little personal spring clean.

Sodashi Body Balance Salt Therapy Exfoliant
We say why not start from the bottom and work your way to the top? Salt is the earth’s healing and cleansing gift, sorting out all kinds of ailments, so we love this salt-based scrub for getting that body ship shape. We recommend a gentle massage with this dry just before a shower, it feels tough but believe us when we say that when you rinse under the shower, you’ll be amazed at how your skin feels. Also, being a Sodashi product, the aromas are made to energise and balance your mind, body and mood. Did somebody say ‘I feel a million dollars?’


Dermalogica Daily Superfoliant

Daily Microfoliant is a cult product for keeping skin fresh everyday but when it’s time for some impactful results, this skincare treasure is a must. Not only does it work on resurfacing your skin, packed as it is with AHAs and enzymes but it also wards away pollutants in the environment. Devotees have reported pore reduction, revitalised skin tone and reduced acne, even pigmentation removal. Try twice a week for a month and see the difference.

Sodashi Enzyme Face Polish
As those that love Sodashi know, each of its products works in the gentlest way, using what Mother Nature gave us to best effect. This enzyme polish is no different. All it takes is a gentle massage with this product for one minute to reveal the glowing skin underneath: its main ingredients being rice powder as the exfoliant, orange sweet which helps skin congestion and plumps cells, and macadamia oil, a natural anti-inflammatory and imperfection healer. Again, this is for once or twice a week use.

Sodashi Gentle Repair White Clay Mask
While your skin is fresh and new, may we suggest popping a reparative mask on for full impact. This beautiful mask feels calming as it balances and clarifies the skin, soothing inflammation, reducing redness and drawing out impurities. Time to say bye to those open pores!

May we suggest: taking the time for a little spring pampering. Come and see us at A Touch Of Beauty for our microdermabrasion treatments to completely revitalise your complexion or indulge in some time out with our Sodashi Body Balance Salt Glow treatment.
