From its skincare
range, I could easily found the products that suit my skin best while browsing
their website. The user-friendly website assisted me in the quest for the most
suitable product for my skin by navigating me to my skin type category where a
group of products was listed below it. From the selection of products under the
oily skin category, I picked the Cranberry Bio Exfoliating Scrub and Purifying
Toner.
Cranberry Bio Exfoliating Scrub
Having bamboo and ascophyllum nodosum (brown seaweed) extract with organic cranberry seeds as
the active ingredients, you can rely on these well-known natural exfoliants to
do an amazing job at removing dead skin cells as well as surface dirt and
impurities. Aside from the
exfoliating properties possessed by the three active ingredients mentioned
above, they also have other side benefits for our skin! Bamboo is known for its
natural richness in silica, a mineral that aids in the regeneration of collagen.
Thus, this gave bamboo its anti-aging properties. Both bamboo and brown seaweed
also has anti-acne activity by reducing the likelihood of an inflammation to
occur.
La Mav Cranberry Bio Exfoliating
Scrub also contains:
- Natural Fruit Acids from Bilberry, Sugar Maple, Lemon, Orange and Sugar Cane and natural Lactic Acid actively exfoliates and purifies by removing excess oil and traces of impurities
- Bamboo Powder and Cranberry Seeds effectively exfoliate to remove dead skin cells while improving circulation and overall skin condition
- Wheat Amino Acids, Kakadu Plum extract and Goji extract deliver long lasting anti-aging benefits
- Cassia alata leaf extract protects cellular DNA from UVA and UVB and supports natural repair of cells
Exfoliation is an important part of my skincare
regimen. I perform it as much as three times weekly as my skin is prone to rapid
pore clogging. The removal of dead skin cells enables new cell regeneration as
well as achieving smooth and radiant skin. Just like a facial massage,
exfoliation increases blood circulation too.
My
experience with La Mav Cranberry Bio Exfoliating Scrub:
I was very eager to try this product on my skin
as I was very amazed with the combination of the natural active ingredients.
These natural exfoliants worked together wonderfully to give me a smooth and
clean face. The scent was very pleasant and I fell in love with it once I
opened the cap. Just a small amount of exfoliator on your palm, you’re good to
go! The texture of the product was rough, as the exfoliating beads were quite
coarse. I would definitely prefer it to be finer, as my skin became slightly
reddish probably because it was sensitive to the abrasion during the
exfoliation. However, the outcome was indeed amazing. My face definitely feels
smoother and more glowing. It looks brightened as well after the dead skin removal.
My face was definitely prepped for the next step- moisturizing and serum
application, enabling sufficient nourishment for rejuvenation. This exfoliator
did an excellent job in dead skin removal, but it did fairly well in purifying
clogged pores, probably because of the coarse beads.
Purifying
Toner
Grapeseed extract, White Tea, and Bilberry extract
have common benefits. They are anti-oxidants, anti-ageing, anti-acne, and
provides UV protection to the skin. This toner functions to refine pores and
maintain skin pH. Pore refining is important to prevent the trapping of dirt
and impurities which will eventually lead to blackheads/whiteheads formation or
acne breakouts. Maintaining skin pH ensures a balanced skin pH which is
unfavourable to bacterial growth.
Purifying Toner also
contains:
- Amino Acids conditions and optimises skin for maximum absorption of daily moisturiser
- Natural Fruit Enzymes and Lemon Balm extract purifies, exfoliates, and balance skin’s pH
- Aloe Vera extract and Rosa damascena instantly revitalise dull skin delivering a refreshed, hydrated, and healthy glow
- Waltheria Extract delivers visible results by evening out skin tone
My
experience with La Mav Purifying Toner:
The scent of this product is wonderfully fresh
and pleasant. Even though I was not used to having a toner in the form of a spray
dispenser bottle, I actually find it convenient. Using a piece of cotton pad, I
sprayed a reasonable amount of toner and I began patting my face. This toner purified my pores by removing debris, as seen on the white cotton pad. I
definitely felt that my face was cleaner. So far, its ability to minimize pores
had not shown visible results yet. This toner was also fairly good in controlling
sebum production.
Overall, it was a great to experience the
natural based products from La Mav. My skin has been nourished with the
benefits from various natural ingredients formulated in the most convenient
way. For more organic products from La Mav, do proceed to www.lamav.com.my
