What benefits can I expect to see from Kanapa™ Revitalizing Exfoliating Scrub?

You may experience some of the following benefits from using the Revitalizing Exfoliating Scrub:

• Refined skin texture
• Healthy circulation below the skin
• Unclogged pores
• Removal of dead skin cells
• Helps prevent formation of blackheads
• Deeply cleansing and moisturizing to new cells below skin's surface with moisturizers including Shea Butter and Jojoba Oil that penetrate into your skin.  
• Lowers skin's pH level to help resist bacteria; Kiwifruit helps maintain skin's protective barrier and boosts skin's defence to achieve a healthy glow.

What effect may the Revitalizing Exfoliating Scrub have on the pH balance of my skin?

Generally, the more acidic a product is - or the lower its pH, the greater the exfoliating qualities that product has. Obviously, the pH level shouldn't be too acidic as this can irritate or damage the skin instead of helping it. This is a common problem with many toners on the market as well as other chemical-laden cosmetic products.

Kanapa™ Revitalizing Exfoliating Scrub includes kiwifruit extract, which supports a healthy pH level in the skin, as well as the gentle acidity of apple peel to help our natural pumice (sourced from lava rock) remove dead skin cells more effectively, revealing fresh, new skin.

This skin is then able to easily absorb the rich emollient ingredients in the product including shea butter, jojoba butter, avocado oil and grape seed oil which further help to support the skin's healthy pH level.
According to our team of skincare experts, who have years of research experience, a pH of 5 or 6 is ideal for skin.

Why does Kanapa™ Revitalizing Exfoliating Scrub not contain plastic Microbeads?

We are passionate about our oceans and ocean life; Microbeads, when used in exfoliants, are washed down the drain into the water supply. Plastic Microbeads can persist in the environment for more than 100 years and have been found to contaminate a wide variety of freshwater and marine wildlife globally.

Can Kanapa™ Revitalizing Exfoliating Scrub be used on other parts of my body?

Yes. Other parts of the body like the arms and chest may be damaged and exfoliating the area may leave the skin more smooth and healthy.

What is the benefit of using natural exfoliants compared to other products that use chemical peels?

Chemicals are harsh, and in some cases poisonous, and when they're absorbed into the skin, they can enter the bloodstream, having the potential to cause a range of negative effects. We use only the best and most natural ingredients to ensure that our products are the safest available. Beauty starts from within, and can only be supported by the highest quality ingredients.

Will Kanapa™ Revitalizing Exfoliating Scrub dry my skin, as some other scrubs tend to do?

No, it should not dry your skin, as we have ensured to include a number of rich and nourishing moisturisers. Shea Butter and Jojoba Oil are included to moisturize and soothe the skin - while most exfoliators require you to cleanse your skin first and moisturize afterwards; our exfoliating scrub cleans and moisturizes with its rich emollient to leave a layer of nourishing moisturisation following the treatment. 

Do you test your skincare on animals?
