Apricot Powder 200 - Exfoliating Particle
Apricot Powder 200 - Exfoliating Particle is a 100 % natural exfoliant sourced from the shells of apricot kernels cultivated in the Langeberg Mountains, South Africa. Post food-industry use, these shells are crushed and sieved to offer particle sizes from 200 µm to 1000 µm, enabling mechanical exfoliation that is gentle to medium, perfect for face (occasional use) and body scrubs. The light brown powder is biodegradable, GMO-free, ISO 16128-compliant, and upcycled, with an ECOCERT-certified organic option available. These finely milled particles gently cleanse and help illuminate the complexion while toning the skin, maintaining good stability in anhydrous formulations.
