This lovely gift-set helps to cleanse, nourish, and brighten the skin to leave it looking healthy, hydrated and oh-so-radiant with these three superstar products!

This set contains:

1 Superfood Glow Cleansing Butter

The Superfood Glow Cleansing Butter easily removes makeup, daily grime, and impurities to reveal a fresh, healthy-looking glow. Containing pumpkin that’s been fermented to increase the availability of its nutrients, this product contains natural enzymes that are known to enhance the skin's renewal process to gently help smooth skin, revealing a glowing complexion. Great for your first cleanse but can also be a multipurpose product! To use Superfood Glow Cleansing Butter as a makeup remover, apply to a cotton pad and wipe gently over the face and eyes. To use as a daily cleanser, massage a coin-sized amount into dry skin and rinse off with warm water. To use as a deep cleansing mask, apply a thin layer to the face and leave on for ten minutes before rinsing.

Infused with fruit vinegars that are known to be rich in ahas and a prebiotic, superfood fruit vinegar liquid glow is a radiance-boosting toner that gently exfoliates the skin for a bright, glowing complexion.
