1. Face exfoliation

If you want super smooth glowing skin you can't skip exfoliating! This is where acai scrub comes handy. It is the quickest way to unclog your pores and refine your skin!
ā€‹
ā€‹Eco by Sonya organic super acai scrub is formulated brilliantly without cheap fillers. You can go as intense or as gentle as you like. ā€‹For an intense exfoliation, you can apply it on dry skin. For those of you with more sensitive skin, wet your face and hands to dissolve the salts but you will still get the powerful benefits of the ingredients. The magnesium salts will deeply clean out your pores and help clear breakouts. Leave it on for a few mins as a treatment before massaging off. Let the powerful active ingredients work their magic.

The scrub tube is made from sugar cane pulp and PCR, making it 100% recyclable. A tube means it stops contamination and keeps the integrity of beautiful organic ingredients.

Pro tip: If you are in a chilly climate, Eco by Sonya beautiful organic cold pressed balms and oils in super acai exfoliator may solidify. Don't fear! Warm it up in the palm of your hands and you are good to go!

2. Smooth glowing skin

Achieve smooth, glowing skin is just 3 steps away with Eco by Sonya products.

Use pink Himalayan salt scrub to remove unwanted dead skin and ingrown hairs while minimising pores with it's jam packed vitamins A & C formula. ā€‹Follow with coconut body milk to achieve a super intense, long lasting hydration.

ā€‹Add a few drops of glory oil with inca inchi, pumpkin seed oil & acai fruit oil to gently calm red skin, as well as any skin irritations and even any skin tones. If youā€™re into the gua sha trend, glory oil is the best face oil to glide your gua sha over your face and lock all of that goodness in!

 

 

3. Dark under eyes

ā€‹If you struggle with dark under eye circles then Eco by Sonya face compost purple power mask & glory oil is a must for you. Mix 7 drops of glory oil with a teaspoon of the purple mask. Let this ultimate combo work it's magic!

Simply mix a blob of organic face compost mask with a few drops of glory oil, get a nice clean finger, and mix it around. Apply it to your under eye area and above the eye area (we all know your eye area is sensitive, so we recommend you do a little patch test and if you get it in your eyes, rinse it out - you know the drill). Leave it for 7 minutes and rinse it off!

This incredible beauty hack will:

  1. Nourish and treat fine lines and wrinkles - thanks glory oil
  2. Brighten the area and counteract dark circles - thanks acai
  3. Tighten under eye bags and loose skin ā€“ thanks Australian white clay


ā€‹Thanks to acai, purple colour counteracts orange and dark tones and will make your eye area bright and fresh. Plus, the Australian clay will tighten the skin area.

 

4. Eyelash, nail and hair treatment

Use Eco by Sonya glory oil for restoring eye lashes, nails and moisturising cuticles.
