Witch Hazel Gel

 

Is this product for me?

Suitable for all skins, but especially formulated for acne-prone skin. 

This soothing and astringent gel contains witch hazel and lemon-scented tea-tree extracts.

Ideal to control active areas of acne prone skin. Thus, an excellent gel for teen skin, but equally great for any skin with acne blemishes. The unique properties of the botanical extracts and essential oils gift this gel with skin clearing and soothing properties.

  • Application: formulated with soothing and astringent extracts to calm inflamed or active acne skin, and to help control bacterial flora.

  • Directions for use: apply one drop to a finger tip and lightly dab around active sebaceous areas, and if possible circling the inflamed pimple, rather than on top of it. This is important because you want the ingredients to stimulate the health skin to support the healing of the infected are. Gently massage around each active area until the skin feels just slightly moist.

This Size Option is designed to last for up to 4 weeks. This amount is sufficient to test the product's unique benefits and functionality, before committing to purchasing bigger sizes.

The Refill Option is provided in 1 x 30 ml recyclable foil pack specially designed for natural skin care products. This will allow re-use of existing containers, to encourage a more sustainable circular approach to skin care.

The emptied foil packs can be discarded in the plastic kerbside bins. In the future we hope to develop an up-cycling approach.

However, the containers will need to be cleaned before refilling to avoid microbial contamination and spoiling of the Refill product.

• Cleaning and drying of the glass bottle and push pump is necessary to ensure that these items are absolutely dry/moisture free before adding any Refill, especially if the product is an Oil-based, such as this Product.
• Using only bottles and pumps that are fully dried is very important to avoid microbial contamination.

Cleaning & Drying Process:

• Add 1 – 2 drops of the dishwashing liquid to the glass bottles, half fill the bottle with warm water.
• Re-insert the push pump, close the nozzle with your finger and shake it, a few times until any of the product remaining on the inside of the bottle is washed from the inside wall.
• Discard the soapy wash.
• Repeat until it is evident that there is no product left inside the bottle, i.e. only bits floating in the washing water.
• Add another drop of dishwashing liquid to the bottle and replace the push pump.
• Now push the soapy water through the pump to wash the pump and nozzle.
• Repeat the water only step a few times to remove any trace of soap.
• Shake the nozzle to remove any water, until only air is flowing through.
• With a hairdryer blow into the bottle to dry inside.
• Use the hair dryer to blow through the pump nozzle, drying the residual moisture.
• Leave bottle and the push pump on paper towel, overnight, in a warm part of the house, to ensure that both are properly dry.
• If the next day, you can still see some moisture in the bottle or any part of the push pump, shake and blow with the hairdryer until the water is gone.

The Travel Option is designed to travel light with your favourite natural skin care products. This Option consists of 1 x 30 ml pack.

Using foil packs specially designed for natural skin care products, avoiding to carry glass jars or bottles while you travel.

The foil packs are easy to pack in compact luggage, by saving space.

Since these options weigh a fraction of the glass containers, they are perfectly designed to encourage circular economy and environmental sustainability, through saving space, weight and of course supporting recycling/up-cycling approaches.

A true winning option for the environmentally conscious traveller.
