Ishga Active Cleansing Lotion has been carefully designed to harness the powerful, healing effects of Hebridean seaweed, hand harvested from the crystal clear waters of the Isle of Lewis, Scotland.
The brand mixes ishga’s unique seaweed extract with natural, local spring water, before adding nourishing cocoa butter and light jojoba oil, to hydrate and nourish the skin without blocking pores. Calming bergamot oil extracted from citrus peel and natural Vitamin E lend strength to the cleanser and a beautiful, fresh scent.
Key Active Ingredients and Benefits
Fucus Serratus Seaweed Extract
Fucus Serratus Seaweed is one of the key ingredients ishga uses, due to its remarkable benefits for the skin. It contains high levels of natural antioxidants known as polyphenols. These antioxidants provide protection against damage to the skin by neutralising free radicals (damaging atoms in the air). Fucus Serratus Seaweed has also been found to regenerate skin cells, promote natural collagen and hyaluronic acid production in the skin, and deliver hydrating properties to lock in moisture.
Jojoba Oil
Jojoba is a carrier oil ideal for all skin types. It hosts antioxidant properties to protect and heal the skin. It can help to reduce redness and keep skin calm and soothed.
Aloe Vera
Hydrates, soothes and promotes skin renewal. Calms, cools and balances the skin. Ideal for reducing redness and inflammation whilst promoting a refreshed and even skin tone.
Glycerin
Glycerin is a humectant which means it attracts moisture to the skin. It helps the skin absorb water from the air reducing any dry and dull patches. Using glycerin regularly can help to make the skin smooth and prevent problems associated with dryness.
Bergamot Oil
Bergamot is a natural cleanser and can help to unblock pores. It also deeply nourishes the skin and helps to control sebum levels for balance in natural oil production.
Hebridean Spring Water
Known for its unique healing and therapeutic properties. Collected locally on the Isle of Lewis, Scotland, near ishga HQ. Mineral rich and pure. Ishga does not use any tap water in ishga’s products, only Hebridean sea and spring water collected locally here on the Isle of Lewis.
Cocoa Butter
Delivers a protective barrier on the skin to help it retain moisture. Cocoa butter is rich in natural plant compounds called phytochemicals. These have been found to improve blood flow to the skin and reduce signs of ageing, by naturally shielding against damage from the sun's UV rays.
