The Face Shop reveals Polynesia’s skin-calming secret

MANILA, Philippines - The Tamanu seed is referred to as “God’s halidom.” Women in Polynesia have used this miracle seed for thousands of years to protect their skin from the fierce sun and piercing sea breeze. It has anti-inflammatory properties superior to other ingredients. Its all-natural formula allows it to quickly heal skin troubles and protect skin from dryness and irritation. It is now clinically used to treat psoriasis, redness, atopy, itching, and other skin problems.

The Face Shop’s Calming Seed line, the brand’s latest skincare line literally calms skin with 95 percent all-natural ingredients — perfect for all skin types. The products are packed with Tamanu seed extracts and Glycyrrhizin, which is derived from licorice and is excellent in treating sensitive skin problems. When combined, these two key ingredients result in skin calming and protection — leading to an all-natural fresh glow.

Formulated to be gentle on even the most sensitive of skin, The Face Shop’s Calming Seed line is free from the 10 additives that are common in skincare products: synthetic preservative, synthetic fragrance, artificial coloring, ethanol, animal-sourced ingredients, mineral oil, benzophenone, triethanolamine, talc, and sulfate. These harsh ingredients cause damage by turning skin red, irritated, and dry. True to its advocacy of naturally driven beauty, The Face Shop takes pride in sharing this skincare gem to the Filipina.

The Face Shop’s Calming Seed line includes the Calming Seed Mild Bubble Foam Cleanser, which removes deep-seated dirt to keep your skin clean without redness and irritation; Calming Seed 1 Second Mist Toner, a toner that immediately calms sensitive skin down in just one second; Calming Seed SOS Care Essence, a deeply moisturizing essence that calms taunt, red, and sensitive skin while promoting an all-natural glow; and Calming Seed Skin Resting Cream, a mild, calming cream that relieves irritated skin from tightness and flushes. It promotes a skin protection barrier for all skin types.

The Face Shop Calming Seed line is available at The Face Shop branches in leading malls nationwide.
