Dry Skin

Winter air, an air-conditioned office, the friction of a mask. Dryness is not only a skin type — it arrives with the season and the environment. When the thought is "this never used to happen," the answer is usually to add something for that period only.

Water comes from a toner made with mineral-rich deep sea water drawn off Kona, Hawaii Island. Holding that water in is the job of natural oils: kukui nut, argan, marula seed. Argan oil contains four times the vitamin E of olive oil and yields only two to three liters from 100kg of fruit; marula seed oil is rich in omega-6, omega-9 and vitamin E. Both are cold-pressed and blended while fresh.

On dry days, finish your routine with one or two drops of "Kalea Lua Oil Serum" or "Clear Very Essence." Warm it between your palms and press it over the face — moisture stays put longer. For the body, the "Archi Moon in Body" cream does the same job.
