Garnet powder
Garnet Exfoliator crafted from garnet stones, known for their presence in metamorphic and igneous rocks. Garnet’s stable crystal lattice structure, rich in aluminum (25%), silica (35%), and iron (30%), gives it its powerful abrasive, toning, and revitalizing properties.
The exfoliant is produced by crushing garnet stones, then sifting them to create particles of varying grain sizes. These exfoliating particles offer excellent abrasiveness and stability, though they can be challenging to keep in suspension. Ideal for formulations that require a robust, natural exfoliant with mineral-rich benefits.
The Exfoliator range from Lessonia offers a vast selection of natural exfoliants, meticulously crafted from plant-based and mineral sources such as shells, fruits, seeds, herbs, spices, and loofah. These exfoliants provide various colours, textures, and degrees of abrasiveness, making them adaptable to different skincare products and applications. Whether for gentle facial scrubs or more robust body exfoliations, these ingredients enhance the natural appeal of formulations by improving skin texture, promoting radiance, and supporting cell renewal.
Stable in all types of formulations including aqueous formulations.
The abrasiveness of particles do not change.
The particles do not bleach and do not colour the product.
The Garnet Exfoliator is difficult to maintain in suspension.
