Volcanic ash is found in many skin care products like mud masks, foot and body scrubs, facial cleansers, etc. Many spas also offer volcanic ash treatments since they can help reduce symptoms of some skin problems such as eczema, psoriasis, acne, cellulite to name a few. Volcanic sand or ash can be beneficial to the skin with its anti-bacterial, anti-yeast, anti-viral, and disinfecting properties. Not only that but it is also great for exfoliating the skin. Since it doesn’t dissolve in water, it is an amazing ingredient for skin care products that are meant to help slough off dead skin cells.
Our Microlumina Exfoliating Facial Scrub is an effective scrub that contains volcanic sand. It is a scientifically formulated facial exfoliating scrub utilizing Dead Sea Salt, Volcanic Sand, Kaolin Clay, and Micro Alumina Crystals. This unique combination of ingredients works to exfoliate the outer dead skin cells and buff the underlying surface areas to a refined polish resulting in a reduction of appearance in wrinkles, fine lines, scars, pigmentation, excess skin oils and impurities which clog pores.
Directions:
Use 1-2 times per week depending on skin sensitivity. Apply to wet skin using circular motions for 1 minute. Use less pressure for sensitive skin types. Rinse thoroughly with warm water, making sure to remove all traces of the scrub. Follow with a light moisturizer to protect and replenish the skin. May repeat as often as needed.
