Description
Developed for dry and sensitive skin, the Codex Bia Exfoliating Wash exfoliates without stripping skin moisture for a deluxe cleansing experience.
What's Inside Codex Bia Exfoliating Wash?
This gentle cleanser features a mix of plant extracts and biotech ingredients that address skin hydration. In terms of ingredients, Jojoba grains exfoliate, elderflower tones, and milk thistle soothes and reduces redness. Furthermore, added castor oils also cleanse the pores and even skin tone.
Additionally, the inclusion of omega 3 and antioxidants strengthen and protect the skin. Omega 3 skin benefits include the regulation of oil production, and moisture retention. As well as this, omega 3 also has anti-inflammatory properties. The added antioxidants in the Codex Bia Exfoliating Wash also protect the skin's surface from free radical damage.
Though this exfoliating cleanser is suitable for all skin types, it is particularly effective for dry, flaky, itchy, or sensitive skin.
Dealing With Dry Skin
What causes dry skin? Several factors! Dry skin occurs as a result of water loss from the skin's outer layer. Cold climates, aging, over-washing, skin conditions, medical treatments, and harsh ingredients in skincare products can trigger it.
While it may seem counteractive to exfoliate dry skin, it is actually beneficial. Exfoliation removes dead skin cells from the skin which allows for better penetration of hydrating skincare products. What's more, it also improves skin tone and texture.
Because of its gentle, hydrating ingredients, the Bia Exfoliating Wash is suitable for daily use and enables you to cleanse and exfoliate simultaneously!
