Cleansers For Days, Because Clean Skin Is The New Sexy

Good healthy skin begins with clean skin, and probably this is why I am so obsessed with having so many cleansers. I realized that if I rotate my cleansers and use something else every 2 weeks, my skin looks so much better and I have less imperfections and problems with it.

 I can't believe that few years ago I used to remove my makeup with micellar water and a Nivea makeup remover and expected to have great skin. Little that I knew about how to properly clean my skin. In my defense I will say that I was young and careless.


Last year I tried a lot of products, including cleansers and I finally found some really good ones that made a change in the way my skin looks. Here are some of my favorites :

1. Caudalie Gentle Cleansing Milk for eyes and face with moisturizing sweet almond, jojoba oil and soothing cornflower.

Shea Butter - Where It Comes From, How Is Made And How To Use In Skin Care

Considered a sacred tree, the Shea-Karite tree grows naturally in the wild of the dry Savannah belt of West Africa and this trees can live up to 300 years.  

The shea butter comes from the nuts found on the tree by removing the outer shell. The nuts are crushed by hand so they can be slowly roasted into shea butter. Once this has been done, the butter is kneaded by hand in a large basin of water to separate the oils also known as the fatty acids. These fatty acids are what provides the restorative properties making it one of the best options for skin care and more. To get the final product, the shea butter is removed off the top and cooled until it hardens.


25 years ago The Body Shop started to work with the Tungteiya Women's Association in Ghana and the shea butter was their first Community Trade ingredient.

The Body Shop choose to do amazing things like always and support female entrepreneurs through this Community Trade partnership and together we can empower these amazing women from Ghana that produce the shea butter and helps us #CareWithShea to be able to support their children's education. Don't you love when shea butter does more than just giving you very soft skin?

The Body Shop shea butter is 100% natural and vegan and this moisturizing multi-purpose butter can be used on the body, hair, face and lips. It has an amazing creamy and melting texture and if you wander how many nuts do you need to make 150 ml of shea butter the answer is 192 shea nuts.
