Matcha Camellia sinensis

Matcha contains high levels of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), known to reduce inflammation and even out skin tone. The antioxidants found in matcha powder help to protect the skin from environmental damage. The texture of matcha powder is soft and fine and is ideal for use as a physical exfoliant to remove dead skin cells and promote softer skin and a brighter complexion.

Sandalwood Santalum spicatum

Sandalwood powder has a subtle, sweet, woody aroma and a fine soft texture ideal for use a facial exfoliant to remove dead skin cells, improve circulation and nutrient supply to the skins surface for softer and brighter skin. Sourced from sustainably harvested Australian Sandalwood.​
