With the rise in popularity of double cleansing, Elemental Herbology has released new facial cleansers – The Five Element Duo – to add to its range of natural skin and bodycare products.
Voted the Best Natural Spa Brand of 2023 in the Beauty Shortlist Awards 2023, Elemental Herbology is inspired by the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine and creates aromatic products inspired by the five elements: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water.
Each element symbolises a different season, personality type and skin type, acknowledging that life is always in flux and our skin and wellbeing needs change throughout the year and as we grow as people.
The new double cleansing ritual brings together the best of all the elements into a Five Elements Cleansing Duo that begins with the Five Elements Cleansing Balm.
Formulated with sea buckthorn oil, apricot oil and jojoba oil, this rich balm has an uplifting scent of grapefruit and geranium and uses nourishing natural oils to melt away all traces of make-up and impurities while leaving the skin calm and hydrated.
The next step is the Five Elements Vital Cleanse, a relaunch of Elemental Herbology’s best-selling Vital Cleanse, which combines wildflower honey, green tea and Vitamin C to cleanse and brighten the skin for a nourished and balanced complexion.
“Double cleansing is the ultimate secret to achieving radiant healthy skin,” explains Antonia David, head of education at Elemental Herbology.
“Originating in Asia, this cleansing ritual involves using two different cleansers during your facial cleansing routine – an oil-based cleanser first, followed by a gentle foaming cleanser.
“This combination will effectively rid the skin of the first layer of dirt, impurities and debris that has accumulated throughout the day and will also remove the layer of build-up on the skin that comes from exposure to environmental pollutants and other toxins.”
The new cleansing duo emulates the expert double cleanse that each guest receives as part of a signature Five Element Aroma Facial treatment, bringing spa luxury to your everyday cleansing routine.
“The best part?” says David, “double cleansing ensures that every other skincare product applied afterwards will work better, effectively super-charging your entire skincare routine.”
