Masa & Olive Face Paste

$20.00

Description

To the Aztec and the Maya, Corn was a god. Civilizations sprouted out of corn: not the other way around. Exfoliating our faces with Masa & Olive Face Paste can be a meditation on our dependence and collaboration with plants. 

This corn-based scrub provides the perfect combination of exfoliating and moisturizing properties. The masa acts as a gentle polisher and stimulator. Olive oil dilutes the pre-existing oils on your skin (like dissolves like) which allows the pore clogging dirt and bacteria to surface and be cleaned away, without stripping your skin of moisture.

2 fl oz
