IOSSI Skincare Opinions

IOSSI makes skincare merchandise which can be “clear” and made with pure and high-quality elements which can be accepted by ECOCERT/COSMOS to be used in pure and natural cosmetics. There are not any pointless components or synthetic colours used. Do you know European regulation bans or restricts over 1,300 chemical substances, whereas the US solely bans eleven? The cosmetics are sustainably produced in IOSSI’s personal lab, and most of them are packaged in lovely glass containers (with some recyclable plastic components). They’re additionally very inexpensive, with nothing over $32, and a few within the $12.95 vary.

Let’s begin with my favourite product – IOSSI Acerola. It’s a spray-on facial toner that I virtually didn’t even attempt! Normally, I’ve to keep away from something with Vitamin C or citrus, however this facial mist doesn’t irritate my pores and skin. Most Vitamin C merchandise comprise ascorbic acid, which is manner too harsh for my pores and skin. IOSSI solely makes use of pure lemon and orange fruit extracts, which appears to be one thing I can tolerate.

The elements are 91.6% natural. This toner incorporates pure sugar maple/sugar cane AHAs for exfoliation, hyaluronic acid for hydration, and niacinamide (AKA Vitamin B3, an on-trend ingredient and certainly one of my faves) to assist with zits, superb strains, and darkish spots. There are additionally a ton of botanicals like blueberries, Spanish sage (chia seed), rose, licorice, and plenty of extra. Test the web site for an entire listing.

You possibly can spritz Acerola immediately onto your pores and skin any time of day to refresh. For finest outcomes, use it twice a day after cleaning your pores and skin earlier than including any serums, lotions, or oils. If the exfoliation is an excessive amount of for you, again off a bit and use it solely at evening.

IOSSI Rice Foam is a really light face wash. Because the identify implies, it is available in a foaming dispenser. It’s made with pure botanicals resembling calendula, marshmallow root, copaiba oil, babassu oil, licorice, rice protein, orange water, bamboo, inexperienced tea, and Spanish sage. It’s possible you’ll discover cocos nucifera fruit extract on the label. It is a coconut extract that doesn’t have the identical fatty acid composition as coconut oil, so it’s non-comedogenic (no breakouts).

As I discussed, it is vitally light. When you’re sporting heavy make-up or SPF, I like to recommend utilizing an oil-cleanse beforehand and/or utilizing this with a washcloth or sonic scrub brush.

IOSSI Rice Coconut is a 100% pure exfoliating and hydrating facial scrub. It’s a thick paste that kind of appears like selfmade playdough. You solely want a small quantity to get a fairly intense scrub. I like to recommend utilizing somewhat little bit of scrub with a number of water as a result of the rice powder, oat kernel flour, and coconut powder pack fairly a punch! You can even use it as a decollete, hand, and physique scrub.

IOSSI Naffi is a medium-weight, tremendous hydrating face cream made with a HUGE listing of moisturizing elements. This jar is filled with: avocado oil, jojoba oil, safflower oil, sunflower oil, shea butter, perilla seed oil, wheat germ oil, borage seed oil, sea buckthorn berry oil, coconut fruit extract, glycerin, and squalane.

I’d advocate this for mature and regular to dry pores and skin varieties. It goes on clean and feels prefer it’s enveloping your pores and skin with a pleasant barrier. It doesn’t really feel heavy or greasy in any respect. However, a few of these oils are excessive on the comedogenic scale (like wheat germ), so in my view, the cream is probably not appropriate for very oily or acneic pores and skin.

IOSSI A+E+C Vitamin Cocktail Eye Serum is a light-weight oil that’s chock filled with anti-aging elements which can be secure to make use of within the delicate eye space. Retinol, Vitamin E, Vitamin C, squalane, and different oils mix for a hydrating, antioxidant-filled cocktail. This mix is very advisable for dry and mature pores and skin varieties. It comes with a cooling rollerball that makes it straightforward to use, whereas additionally lowering irritation.

Pine Needle Magnificence has many different cruelty free IOSSI skincare merchandise, together with the Neroli Shake that I actually need to attempt! Test them out and provides them a observe on Instagram and Fb.
