Avocado offers relief for almost every skin type. It gently cleans oily skin with no irritation, to keep pores clear and healthy. For dry, sensitive skin, it soothes quickly and penetrates to nourish and moisturize...and because it's a moisturizer and a cleanser, Avocado Face and Body Soap continues working after you bathe. The fresh citrus scent is a gentle reminder that it's helping to keep your skin soft, supple and healthy all day long. A natural astringent.
Avocado soap is valued as a treatment for dry-type eczema and rashes, by moisturizing the skin with the fatty oils in the avocado oil and nurturing the skin with Vitamins A, D and E.
Avocado butter is especially good for dry, dull skin which has wrinkles. It can be beneficial for sensitive, stressed and prone to acne skin, boils and pimples. When there is the tendency for acne and pimples, the bitter nature of Avocado soap and butter helps to purify the skin, and improve immunity and skin conditions.
Cucumber is rich in sulphur and therefore it is very good for skin care and it can actually lighten the dark signs of aging thanks to its decongesting properties. Dermatological experts also recommend using cucumber to ease sunburn. When used continuously, it can also help to improve wrinkles. The old tradition of putting cucumber slices on swollen eyes is known by everyone: cucumbers can reawaken the eyes, rejuvenating the skin around them and reduce dark bags. In cosmetics, cucumber flesh is used to make a refreshing and hydrating facial mask, the seeds are used for toning and firming masks and the juice is used for soothing wipes for sensitive skin. In conclusion, to reduce wrinkles and make the skin softer and brighter, is it possible to create a very efficient facial mask using crushed cucumber, some olive oil and some drops of lemon juice. This treatment has a cleaning action that cleanses and reduces expanded and/or closed pores and it is also appropriate for sensitive skin that cannot tolerate soap or hard water. The outcome of this treatment is superior to any lotion and is definitely cheaper.
Pairing together avocado and cucumber is a win win situation for all.
Remember...avocado cleans...cucumber heals.
