We all need a bit of pampering and in South Africa’s harsh sun climate, we need to take care of our skin. For moms on the go, however, how do you fit it in? Celltone has made it super easy and idiot proof with a set of 1-6 steps to take care of your skin in a lovely pack.
If you’re wondering why I placed these products in the leaves, it’s because it’s a tribute to the snail extract in their products (hence the logo). Farmworkers long ago noticed the difference to their hands and the tradition continues. The snail gel is one of their well known products.
I’ve been using this pack for more than a week now and it feels so beneficial to take care of myself in this way, as well experiencing clearer skin. I keep bottles 1-3 in the bathroom, since they require water, and 4-6 in my cupboard (although 5 needs water it isn’t every day). I’m using 1,3,4 and 6 on a daily basis and 5 (exfoliator) twice a week and 6 (mask) once a week on a Saturday when I have more time.
Let’s run through the contents of the pack:
- Facial Wash: Moisturising Facial Wash
This is a gentle water soluble wash that removes oil, dirt and make-up. I find it very soothing as well as giving a thorough cleanse.
2. Exfoliator: Invigorating Exfoliating Scrub
This container is the only one that doesn’t have the pump action dispenser. I guess it is because of those little granules that remove the dead skin. It has a lid that you open and squeeze the creamy liquid out. As a bonus those particles are smooth bamboo that do not scratch your skin but do leave it feeling radiant and smooth.
3. Cleanser: Soothing Cleansing Lotion
This is a cleanser that doesn’t foam. Although it cleans it moisturises so that your skin does not feel stripped and dry. I use it on my four year old son, knowing that his skin will be cleaned without becoming dry (just to be safe I put number 6 moisturiser on him too).
4. Toner: Alcohol free facial toner
I think what I like about toners is that they don’t have the harshness of a cleaner. It’s more gentle. This toner softens, calms, adds skin repairing ingredients and prepares your pores for the next, moisturising step.
5. Mask: Hydrating facial mask
Long ago I used a mask to extract all my oil but as I get older, my skin is just dry. Dehydration causes flaky, dry, wrinkled and sagging skin. This mask has collagen, keratin and elastin to rehydrate your skin. I leave it on for two minutes before rinsing it off.
6. Moisturiser: SPF 15: Daily moisturising Facial Lotion
Moisturiser is your protective barrier against free radicals as well as the sun. This product actually fades the damage and makes your skin look healthier. It is enriched with Argan oil.
Tissue oil:
As a bonus in this pack your also get some tissue oil. This product has up to five times more hydration. It has a multitude of other uses such as reducing stretch marks, soothing after sun effects, and moisturising after a shower. It’s also useful across all ages from babies, children, teens, sportspeople and aging skin. Don’t rinse this one off! In this past week I have also used tissue oil on burns (oil from the stove) and although I could see the skin was about to blister it just had a mark in the end.
Did you know that the sizes of the bottles are internationally travel approved too? And that cute see through cosmetic bag is handy for travelling too.
BONUS in this giveaway: Suncreen for adults and children: we’ll be giving away the adult and children ones.
Celltone have three sunscreens: for babies, children and adults.
All have SPF 50 UVA and UVB protection. They contain anti-oxidants to fight free radicals.
I find it interesting that the adult one is suitable for acne prone skin (some sunscreens are greasy but this one is light, even though it smells like sunscreen).
The other interesting thing is that our cricketers, who spend an awful lot of time in the sun, use this sunscreen. Inside the suncreen boxes you’ll find collectable cards of both Celltone products and cricketers: the current Protea Squad. If you collect all the cards you can win Samsung S7 smartphone. (There are 30 altogether up for grabs) Details inside the packages.
