daily life exposes the body to thousands of pollutants and toxins that slowly accumulate in the skin. white sage is used for its curative, astringent and antiseptic qualities to tighten and cool the skin, high in naturally-occurring phenols which help reduce inflammation and ease muscle pain. peppermint and spearmint act as a natural anesthetic, deeply revitalizing and relaxing the body. lavender stimulates blood flow, acts as a natural mood enhancer, and helps to calm nerves and release muscle tension. gunpowder green tea contains xanthine and vitamin c, which encourage the stimulation of the sweat glands to eliminate impurities. green tea’s naturally occurring polyphenols help to slow aging, and boost the body’s immune system. silt helps to increase the oxygen intake of the skin, leaving it pure and soft. clay has positive and potent detoxification benefits. the regular practice of cleansing and detoxifying helps the body to maintain homeostasis, a healthy life balance, leaving the skin refreshed and radiant.

under hot running water or in a warm bath, lather over body with warm, wet hands. wash slowly, and with energy.
