Balancing Body Silk

Light, easily absorbed oils with essential fatty acids moisturize and smooth normal to oily skin. Antioxidants found in plant extracts and in vitamins protect skin from environmental damage. Included are a special sunflower seed extract that protects from photo-induced free radicals and cratagegus with strong detoxifying effects, which protects against metallic ions and other atmospheric pollutants. Ayurveda-Energen BioComplex, Shankara’s exclusive proprietary ingredient complex, provides antioxidant protection and supports regeneration of tissues. Skin is hydrated with glycosaminoglycans and sodium hyaluronate. The essential oils are slightly toning and uplifting for the kapha dosha (body type). Based in structured water, the active ingredients are enhanced and more readily absorbed. PH 5.5-5.6, balanced for the skin.

Directions
