BEAUTY GOODIES: boscia skincare

Share

With warm days upon us (finally!), our skin will be more exposed to the sun which for most of us means oily gross skin that becomes more prone to acne. So what do we do, we use harsh scrubs and cleaners that only leave our skin irritated and dry. boscia modifies your skincare regimen for the summer season and brings preservative-free products that instantly cool the skin during the hottest of days.

Based in Yokohama, Japan, boscia was founded by Kenji Ikemori, a Japanese entrepreneur who has dedicated his career to developing effective skincare solutions. Mr. Ikemori envisioned a holistic approach to skincare that would include botanically-based, preservative-free products. Each of the boscia skincare products, with the exception of Blotting Linens, contain Willow Herb, a unique anti-irritant, and Jojoba Leaf, a strong and effective antioxidant. Here are some of my favorite products:

Balancing Facial Tonic ($18) – A soothing tonic for hydration, also removes impurities with Lavender, Jojoba Leaf and Willowherb.

Makeup-Breakup Cool Cleansing Oil ($21) – A gentle way to deeply cleanse skin, with peppermint and Eucalyptus, Rose Hip, Green Tea and Golden Palm Oils, all detoxify the pores and refine the skin’s texture.

Oil-free Daily Hydration SPF 15 ($27) – A weightless smooth moisturizer that contains Silica Powder to combat oil and Burdock Root to refine pores.

My fave, a total must have:

Vanilla Blotting Linens ($10) – These fast-absorbing blotting sheets are formulated with Abaca Tree Plant fibers to naturally absorb excess oil and maintain your shine-free face.
