Skin Academy Zero Skin care products
Zero Face wash
The Zero face wash smells so fresh and left my face feeling clean but did not strip the natural oils. This fast wash contains Coconut oils and Sacha Inchi oil.
Face scrub
Loved this Zero face scrub! It left my skin glowing. The apricot seeds were quite vigorous it actually felt like it was doing something. The scrub has been enriched with Sacha Inchi oil and sweet almond oil.
Eyecream
The zero eye cream is very light and does not drag the eyes when applying. With ingredients such as shea butter and coconut oil it felt light but enough to nourish the eyes.
Skin academies Zero night cream
The night cream contains green tea extracts and Sacha inch oil and sweet almond oil to hydrate your skin overnight.
A Zero day cream
The Zero day cream was very light and glided on my skin felt hydrated and soft all day. It contains Shea butter and coconut oil.
Body care in the form of a hand and nail cream
This hand and nail cream is one of the best I have ever tried! Being a hairdresser I love hand cream but often my hands feel more dry after. This left my hands soft and I could feel it all day but it did not feel greasy. It contains Shea moisture and sweet almond oil.
Skin Academies Zero vegan formula
The formulation is 100% natural vegan with no animal derivatives and is not tested on animals.
No synthetic preservatives
The zero products are water based so they require preservatives to prevent bacterial growth. The natural preservative used in Zero’s products is Dermosoft® 1388 Eco. Dermasoft is a blend of plant derived Basil, Star Anise, Sugarcane and Rapeseed. So there is no harsh chemical preservatives in them it’s all organic acids with a broad natural antimicrobial activity.
Zero contains Palm oil which is from a sustainable source
Zero’s natural fragrance
The Natural fragrance of Zero is plant derived and is made in the UK. The smell of the product is gorgeous and smells like it has just come out of a luxurious spa! you can expect to smell is a soothing blend of Sweet Orange, Chamomile, Ylang, Geranium as well as Jasmine.
The formulation of the products life is 18 months from date of manufacturing.
Zero Microbeads!
The Zero facial scrub has no plastic micro beads that can get in to our water sources. The scrub is made from real natural apricot seeds. It feels amazing on the skin it gives quite a bit of friction and is also perfect as a hand scrub.
The zero skincare packaging
Tubes and caps
All of the tubes are made from sugarcane this bioplastic tube has a significantly reduced carbon footprint. The Green Polyethylene is produced using sustainably sourced sugarcane ethanol.
Zero Skin academies states from (source’sugarcane.org’)
“Growing sugarcane in Brazil does not harm the Amazon Rain Forest. Almost 90% of Brazilian sugarcane production takes place in South-Central Brazil, with the remainder grown in Northeastern Brazil. Both producing regions are located some 2,000 to 2,500 km (1,240 to 1,550 miles) away from the Amazon. The Amazon region simply does not offer appropriate growing conditions for sugarcane”
Of course after use this tube can be fully recycled!
Jars and lids
The zero face cream comes in a glass jar with a bamboo lid. The lid of the jar has a removable plastic insert which can also be recycled. The bamboo lid is compostable and can go in your garden or food waste bin.
Retail boxes and transit
The retail box contains 15% recycled card and of course is recylable. Zero state that a higher percentage of recycled content could not be used as it would cause issues with the print quality on the box.
The rest of the virgin card content used for the boxes is also sustainably sourced and-Certified to the PEFC Chain of Custody Standards and is of course fully recyclable.
The transit boxes are made from 100% recycled card.
Zero skin academy will be released in the next couple of weeks! keep your eyes peeled.
