Qēt Botanicals Hydrating Clay Exfoliant With Tea & Lavender

A gentle exfoliant is just as important as a good cleanser when it comes to healthy, vibrant skin. Natural, pure, and free from synthetic fragrances or fillers, this hydrating clay exfoliant features purifying clay, vitamin-rich Matcha green tea, and botanical flower oils.  Qēt’s beautifully and intentionally designed tea and lavender exfoliant is nature’s gateway to a fresh, firm, and bright complexion. It helps soothe dry, reactive-looking skin and supports a calmer, clearer-looking complexion.* Redness and irritation look less obvious, and uneven or reactive skin appears more toned, clearer, and brighter, allowing your beauty to shine! Now let’s peep into the immaculate line-up of ingredients that appear in this tea and lavender exfoliant from Qēt:

• Lavender: Adored worldwide for its aroma and beneficial properties, this well-loved herbal flower helps comfort the skin and supports a calm, balanced-looking complexion.* It’s also a skin-cleansing superhero!
• Oat Kernel: Extracted from the seeds of the Avena Sativa plant, gluten-free oat kernel flour helps soothe and hydrate skin while supporting the skin’s natural moisture barrier.* Its strong concentration of starches and beta-glucans is especially good for long-lasting, soft-skin moisture.
• Morroccan Clay: Another ancient favorite, Moroccan lava clay (or Rhassoul clay) helps restore the skin’s natural glow.* It’s rich in minerals that help it thoroughly, deeply and gently cleanse away buildup and impurities.
• Matcha: Chock full of vitamins, Matcha green tea provides antioxidant support and helps leave skin feeling refreshed and looking clarified.* The polyphenols found in Matcha green tea help neutralize free radicals that can damage the skin and speed up visible signs of aging.*

Skin types that will benefit most from the effects of this hydrating exfoliant include oily and dry (combination complexion); normal with occasional blemishes or activity; and normal to dry. Through daily use, you’ll see your complexion look clearer and brighter, as dead skin cells are buffed away to reveal fresher-looking skin. Recycle the old out for the new!

How to Choose Your Exfoliant - Herbal or Clay?

Options are lovely, but sometimes we need more information in order to make the best decision! To help you choose which type of exfoliant is right for you, let’s look at the similarities and differences:

How the herbal and clay exfoliants are the same:Clay and herbal exfoliants are equal in that they both soothe, hydrate, and soften the skin. Both gently cleanse with natural ingredients for a healthy, glowing complexion.

How the herbal and clay exfoliants are different:The difference lies in how deeply they penetrate the skin, and what they’re able to pull up. Clay exfoliants are made with mineral clay that acts like a sponge, soaking up, and carrying out, trapped buildup and impurities from deep within the pores. Herbal exfoliants, on the other hand, are made with fine botanical powders, and are great for a lighter, surface pore cleansing.

How to choose: For the removal of deep-rooted impurities and buildup, the clay exfoliant is the best option.

For more tender surface cleansing, the herbal exfoliants are the way to go.

Rest assured, no matter which exfoliant you go with, your skin will be cleansed for a more vibrant complexion. It just depends on your present skin condition!

Qēt actually recommends you alternate between the two exfoliants regularly, so that your skin is receiving the special skin-loving benefits each has to offer. With ever-changing environments and unknowns, it’s best to have both on hand. You really can’t go wrong!
