I love to try new skincare brands and this is my first product
I'm trying from the French skincare brand PATYKA.
This product came via the Skins Cosmetics Holiday Box 2020, who
are the exclusive stockists of PATYKA.
As is standard now with new brand reviews you will find a brief overview
of the PATYKA brand below.
PATYKA is a Parisian House of Organic Cosmetic whose origins date
back to the 1920s.
They create high quality products, with unique fragrances, full of elegance and sophistication.
Patyka's cosmetics have created a revolutionary vision of beauty, with the environment and health as the highest priority.
In 2002, PATYKA became one of the first cosmetic brands in the world to be certified organic (ECOCERT label).
All the products are pesticide, silicone, paraben, polymer, phtalate,
fatty alcohol, solvent or mineral wax free.
There are no synthetic additive, preservative or synthetic dye, and it is
cruelty free.
The Double Action Smoothing Scrub
is a multi-purpose care product that can be used either as an enzyme mask to gently exfoliate the skin thanks to its fruit acids or as a mechanical scrub to be massaged onto the skin.
It stimulates cell renewal and allows the skin to regain radiance and suppleness,
Its creamy texture brings the comfort of a mask and the gentle exfoliation of a scrub to refine the skin grain, illuminate the complexion, blur the pigment
defects and visibly smooth wrinkles and lines.
Main active ingredients:
Jojoba Wax Microspheres:
Exfoliate and get rid of dead cells
while strengthening skin.
Natural Complex of 5 Fruit Acids (AHAs):
Provides a gentle peeling effect
which stimulates cellular renewal and refines skin texture.
Bamboo Stalk Powder:
Erases the imperfections and perfects the smoothing
of the skin.
Jojoba Oil:
Creates a non-greasy protective film which regenerates and revitalises skin.
100% of the total ingredients are of natural origin.
50,6% of the total ingredients are from Organic Farming.
Application:
In the evening, apply a thin layer of Double Action Smoothing Scrub
on your face .
For a more intense brightening and anti-ageing effect, leave the mask
on for two minutes.
Then carefully remove using circular fingertip motions and rinse your
face with warm water.
Use once or twice a week on all skin types, preferably in the evening.
From the delicate pink colour, the texture, application and ultimately the
results of this scrub reminded me very much of the
LA PRAIRIE CELLULAR MINERAL
FACE EXFOLIATOR
I reviewed this product several years ago and fell in love with it,
but sadly not the very hefty price.
The PATYKA Double Action Smoothing Scrub is one of those large granular
type of exfoliators, which personally I prefer, as it leaves your skin feeling
super clean and incredibly soft, smooth and bright, it also preps the skin
to receive whatever face mask or cream you chose to then apply.
If you are looking for a cheaper option to the LA PRAIRIE or
just looking for an exceptionally good dual purpose exfoliator, that also
happens to be Organically Certified then look no further, as this is
seriously impressive...
I would go as far as to say that I prefer it, just a tad more, to my much loved
EXUVIANCE TRIPLE MICRODERMABRASION FACE POLISH
(Unfortunately my review, even though it was only written during mid 2020,
is now out of date, as I believe they have launched their newly re-packaged,
re-named and slightly tweaked version of the
Exuviance Triple Microdermabrasion Face Polish)
