Tasmanian Soap Farm sources the lemon juice used in its vegan soap from its own lemon trees. According to DNA evidence, these shrubs originated from the southeast foothills of the Himalayas. People have long known of the juice’s health-giving properties, especially for skin:
- Exfoliating and antiseptic: the juice helps to exfoliate dead cells. Its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory qualities can help soothe skin irritations;
- Maintains pH balance: lemon juice is a natural alkalising agent, helping to maintain a pH balance;
- Astringent: the juice helps motivate the skin’s pores to close and tighten, resulting in smoother skin;
- Evens skin tone: it contains the free-radical-fighting antioxidant vitamin C, which helps to keep skin even-toned. It can also assist in fading scars and age spots. Vitamin C repairs and rejuvenates healthy skin cells. It can play an important role in restoring your skin;
- Reduces excess oil: It helps to reduce the excretion of sebaceous glands present in the skin, thus averting hair follicles from getting blocked.
Luscious lemon juice is a gift of Mother Nature and it can assist in a more beautiful you! We add it to fresh avocado to make our lovely vegan skin care soap and also to further activate the charcoal in our devil skin care soap.
