The cleanser

Pevonia CleanRefresh Foaming Oil Cleanser

Best for all skin types

This new generation hybrid cleanser offers the combination of a gel, oil and foam – It’s a truly innovative, triple duty oil cleanser with a gel like consistency which features an advanced lipid-rich, alcohol-free, soap-free exclusive formula which transforms into a luscious, foaming cleanser on application (when mixed with water). Amazing right? Plus, it acts like a super magnet entrapping pollutants, impurities and bacteria to leave skin radiantly refreshed, soft and supple after every application. What’s more it’s suitable for all skin types, but especially great for those suffering from dry skin because of its perfect blend of foaming surfactants, skin-friendly oils and soothing, nourishing ingredients.

The exfoliator

Pevonia Gentle Exfoliating Cleanser

Best for all skin types

This is THE perfect all-rounder exfoliator for all skin types. A creamy, granular, exfoliating cream formulated with jojoba beads, Saponaria and Chamomile that very gently polishes away dry, dead skin cells, impurities and toxins to reveal instant radiance and softer, smoother skin too! It reduces pore size with regular use, it’s perfect to use in the shower in the mornings and is so gentle you can use it every day if you please! (Although exfoliating is generally recommended 1-2 times weekly!) You’ll love the immediate gratification you’ll get from this formidable favourite of ours.
