New Year, New Skin
Most of us like to start the new year with a fresh approach, whether it’s home, work, health, fitness or leisure. When it comes to skin, there’s no better way to kick-start the New Year than with a healthy glow. And, exfoliation is one of the best ways to achieve that.
So, what exactly is exfoliation? Simply put, it’s the process of removing dead skin cells from the surface of the skin – this can be done through mechanical methods or chemical.
Electric Body ‘Body Polish’ is a superior, award-winning exfoliator which is free from petrochemicals, alcohol, parabens and fillers. This entirely natural product uses compounds, such as calcium carbonate, that soften and smooth the surface of the skin. To further enhance it, New Zealand Colostrum is included to nourish and rejuvenate the skin and salts to cleanse and detoxify. The overriding principles of the Body Polish are to provide a highly effective way to exfoliate skin that is gentle at the same time.
You would be forgiven for thinking that exfoliation is a recent invention, however this illuminating skin treatment actually dates back to Ancient Egypt. Sour milk was the exfoliant of choice then, with Cleopatra famously believed to have bathed in it frequently. In the Middle Ages, old wine was a popular choice to reveal new skin, and in the 1800s the German dermatologist Paul Gerson Unna, started to formulate the earliest types of chemical peel.
Mechanical exfoliation has been practiced all over the world, with the American Indians using dried corncobs, while sand from the bottom of a river bed and crushed sea shells have also featured in the pursuit of smooth skin in different parts of the world.
The Body Polish is a much easier option, gentle, effective and award-winning plus we are offering a special ‘Friends Price’ until end March 2019. To find out more please contact graham@electricbody.co.uk
