St.lves Sea Salt & Pacific Kelp Body Wash
Description
Rejuvenate dull skin and smooth body texture with the ocean-inspired exfoliating action of St. Ives Sea Salt & Pacific Kelp Exfoliating Body Wash. Specially formulated for rough, dry, or tired body skin seeking natural smoothing and refreshing hydration, this ocean mineral exfoliating body wash wraps the body in a rich, sudsy lather. By pairing natural sea salt minerals with nutrient-dense Pacific kelp extracts, it glides across body contours effortlessly.
This refreshing daily wash works dynamically to buff away surface corneocyte buildup, purify clogged pores, and reveal glowing, touchably soft skin. Designed for daily use in the shower or bath, the smooth gel-scrub vehicle washes cleanly away, leaving your skin feeling refreshed, invigorated, and deeply cleansed throughout the day.
How It Works & Key Benefits
This product targets surface skin dullness, rough micro-texture, and flaky skin cell buildup. By combining physical sea salt scrub granules with bio-compatible sea kelp extract and gentle cleansers, it lifts away dead skin cells while conditioning upper epidermal layers. This dual-action system smooths rough skin texture, supports natural surface cell renewal, and maintains essential moisture balance during cleansing.
Core Active Ingredients & What They Do
-
Sea Salt: Mineral-rich natural physical exfoliant that gently polishes away dead surface skin cells and smooths micro-roughness.
-
Pacific Kelp Extract (Macrocystis Pyrifera): Nutrient-dense ocean botanical rich in minerals and vitamins that conditions and hydrates body skin.
-
Glycerin: Essential humectant active that draws moisture from the atmosphere directly into skin layers to prevent post-wash dryness.
-
Hydrated Silica: Fine mineral scrubbing agent that works alongside sea salt to enhance gentle surface exfoliation.
Formula Feel, Absorption & Delivery
The gel-scrub vehicle dispenses easily from the bottle, featuring fine exfoliating particles suspended in a fresh ocean-scented gel. As it is worked over wet body skin, it builds rapidly into a plush, sudsy foam that buffs away dry flakes without causing harsh scratching or skin irritation. It rinses away completely with warm water, leaving zero heavy or tacky residue behind.
Skin Barrier & Surface Finish
Formulated without harsh parabens, phthalates, or microplastics, the wash respects natural skin balance and cutaneous surface integrity. Once rinsed and towel-dried, it leaves a smooth, polished, soft-matte finish that prepares body skin for optimal absorption of post-shower body lotions and creams.
Skin Type Suitable for dry, normal, combination, and rough body skin profiles seeking daily exfoliation and smoothness.
Concerns Solved Body skin dullness, rough skin micro-texture, dry flakiness, clogged pores, surface dirt buildup, and loss of radiance.
