It’s a new year and here at Fern we are making some changes. We have always felt that it is the utmost importance to provide our clients with effective skincare. We are very proud of the skincare options we offer for home use but have decided to change things around a bit. We have always used Dermalogica skincare and will continue to carry the Ultra Calming Line but have decided to discontinue stock of their other cleansers. Not to fret, you won’t be without great options!
We will continue to offer all of the cleanser options in the Alpha H range. Both the Triple Action Cleanser and Balancing Cleanser will be available. The Soothing and Calming Cleanser will be out of stock due to them reformulating that product. As a result of that we have looked into our Skin Ceuticals range.
Skin Ceuticals, as many of you know, is an amazing anti-aging range and we have chosen their best cleansers to offer to you now. We will be carrying the Foaming Cleanser, Gentle Cleanser and the Blemish + Age Cleansing Gel.
The Foaming Cleanser is a lightweight cleanser that deep cleans pores, removes excess oils and clears surface impurities. A fragrance free cleanser containing gentle, non-allergenic ingredients to prevent irritation. This cleanser contains extracts of Arnica, Ivy, Cucumber, Mallow, Lime Tree and Sambuccus (also known as Elder Extract). It’s mild and non-drying to the skin and perfect for removing make-up. As in the name, this cleanser is a foaming cleanser that you will want to massage into skin thoroughly and then simply rinse off. Those of you who liked the Special Cleansing Gel from Dermalogica will find this one a nice change.
The Gentle Cleanser is specifically designed for sensitive or dry skin. This is a mild cleanser designed to remove excess impurities and oil without over drying. The Gentle Cleanser contains emollients and skin conditioners which calm and moisturise the skin. Allantoin, a botanical extract with soothing properties believed to aid in fragile skin and Orange Oil known for its soothing properties. You can simply massage this cleanser into the skin and rinse off with warm water or use a face cloth/muslin. Many of you who like the Alpha H Soothing and Calming Cleansing Gel will like this one as an alternative or if you liked the Dermalogica Essential Cleansing Solution, we recommend trying this one.
The Blemish + Age Cleansing Gel is the newest cleanser to the Skin Ceuticals range. This daily cleanser targets blemishes and photoaging. This is an ideal cleanser for skin prone to breakouts and helps to address the concerns of aging skin as well. This cleansing gel is non drying and has micro-exfoliating properties of 0.2% Capryloyl Salicylic Acid to decongest clogged pores, 0.2% Salicylic Acid to refine pores and reduce breakouts and 3.5% Glycolic Acid to accelerate exfoliation, hydrate the skin and reduce the appearance of aging skin. With this cleanser, you simply massage into the skin and rinse off with tepid water. This cleanser is ideal for those of you who would choose Dermalogica’s Dermal Clay Cleanser or the Skin Resurfacing Cleanser.
So there you have it, New Year, new cleansers!
