  • Description

    This gentle micro-exfoliant uses natural rice grains to dislodge and lift impurities for a smoother, more radiant complexion. Australian Desert Lime deeply hydrates as naturally-occurring AHAs from Strawberry and Lime fruit extracts boost skin’s radiance for a renewed complexion. Enriched with a nourishing blend of organic cold-pressed oils like Camellia Seed and Cocoa Butter, this unique polish gently exfoliates without stripping skin of its natural oil balance.

    Key Actives

    Rice Beads and Cellulose: provide gentle exfoliating action to smooth and slough away dead skin cells, leaving a flawless and radiant complexion.
    Australian Desert Lime: extracted using innovative liquid cellular matrix technology, glycosides support healthy collagen production and skin hydration. Also assists the proliferation of skin cells.
    Babassu Oil: cold-pressed organic phyto-active oil from Brazil, abundant in phytosterols and vitamin E to reduce transepidermal water loss and restore skin hydration.

  • Actives

    Cellulose Acetate, is an organic carbohydrate found in plant cell walls. Cellulose has moisturising properties and acts as an emulsifier, helping other nutrients to penetrate the dermis.  Cellulose is neither water or oil-soluble, making it a wonderful, gentle alternative to harsh physical exfoliants. The soft cellulose compounds clump together as you rub the product into your skin, helping to dislodge and remove dead skin cells and impurities.

    Natural AHAs, are derived from Strawberry and Lime extracts, and work to exfoliate the skin to reveal a visibly brighter and smoother complexion. They work by loosening the inter-cellular fluid (gel-like substance that binds skin cells), allowing the top layer of dead skin cells to slough away easily. The exfoliant properties of natural AHAs also assist with lessening the appearance of pigmentation that has built up in surface skin, as well as dissolving impurities that may be clogging pores.

    AHAs also promote skin cell renewal, causing cells to become denser and more compact, helping to prevent damage and irritation from external stressors. This also helps to prevent moisture loss and promotes a more supple and plump complexion. By encouraging skin cell turnover, AHAs help to reduce the appearance of scars, pigmentation and sun spots.

    Rice Enzymes, are the key natural exfoliant in this gentle exfoliator! Used for centuries in Asian tradition to cleanse the skin, Exfoliating Rice Powder effectively exfoliates the skin without causing irritation. The chemical structure of rice enzymes is similar to the ceramides (fat) in your skin, helping to store moisture and encourage collagen production. Perfect for sensitive and combination skin types, Rice Enzymes smooth and slough away dead skin cells, leaving a flawless and radiant complexion behind.  

  • Botanicals

    Desert Lime Extract, is an extract native to Australia that contains an abundance of tiny pearls of potent actives (glycosides and coumarins) which work to support collagen production, improve skin hydration by binding onto water molecules and assist the absorption of the other vital antioxidants in the formula.

    Gingko Biloba Extract, is a soothing herb which provides a burst of potent antioxidants. Gingko Biloba increases blood flow to the skin, helping to restore a youthful, radiant appearance by getting rid of dead skin cells and increasing skin elasticity. It contains antioxidants quercetin and kaempferol, which help fight free radicals and prevent signs of early ageing. Ginkgo Biloba is also used to reduce hyperpigmentation due to its abundance in the enzyme tyrosinase, which is responsible for the development of pigmentation in the skin. Ginkgo has also been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties, which may be beneficial in reducing acne, scars, rosacea and eczema.

    Wattleseed, comes from the Acacia tree native to Australia, and has anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that nourish and protect the skin from oxidative stress. Wattle Seed is extremely potent in Gallic Acid, a compound naturally rich in free radical fighting antioxidants used to prevent the signs of ageing, encouraging elasticity and supple skin. Wattle Seed has a thin molecular consistency which allows it to easily absorb into the skin. Wattle Seed is also used for its cleansing, pore refining and anti-inflammatory properties, as well as its high amino acid content which promotes youthful looking skin.

So lovely

I love how gentle this is but it really gets into the skin and lifts off any dirt and old skin cells. I feel like it brightens and polishes my skin as well, I can see and feel a difference. I can sometimes be sensitive to products but this is gentle and hasn’t caused me any issues. Gentle enough that you can use it a few times a week.

Hi Kate, I hope you are well! Thank you so much for your feedback! We are so glad to hear you are enjoying your Desert Lime Micro-Exfoliant. Warm regards, the Edible Beauty Team.
