Managing excess oil production is a slippery slope for people with oily and combination skin. Striking that delicate, dewy balance that keeps skin feeling clean and fresh – without being stripped – especially during steamy, summer months or in hot climates, is particularly challenging for those with oily or acne-prone complexions.
Starting in May, just in time for summer’s balmy temps, Amala, formulated in Germany and built on a heritage of love and respect for nature of the highest order, introduces Purifying Gel Moisturizer – a remarkably certified natural treatment moisturizer that helps balance oil and moisture levels in the skin, clarifying pores without leaving cheeks uncomfortably dry. Imparting a radiantly smooth, soft matte finish while protecting skin against environmental free radical assaults, it provides powerfully pure performance – from the clarifying and healing properties of plants, sustainably harvested and specifically chosen to cleanse, nurture, soothe and clear oily and combination skin.
Whole Plants Deliver Powerfully Pure Performance
Developed specifically for oily, acne-genic, and combination skin types, Purifying Gel Moisturizer centers around the healing plants and flowers of Eastern Asia – mainly wildcrafted Blue Lotus – which nurtures acne-prone skin with vitamins, minerals and amino acids essential for a pure, healthy complexion. Exceptional oil control, hydration and anti-inflammatory benefits are derived from:
organic Goji Berry - a super-antioxidant and free radical avenger
organic Ginger - soothes, purifies and quells inflammation
organic Rice Germ – balances hydration and additionally, provides antioxidant benefits
White Willow Bark – promotes cell turnover for an even complexion, while keeping pores clear
organic Tea Tree – possesses antiseptic properties to help reduce impurities and restore skin’s pH balance
“At Amala, we don’t believe in the otherwise ubiquitous notion of ‘oil-free’,” says Joi Ruud, global marketing director. “Plant oils are the cornerstone of Amala’s product development philosophy – they fuel our products’ efficacy. Unlike petroleum-based and mineral oils, the chemical composition of organic plant oils is nearly identical to that found in human skin, so they’re instantly recognized and absorbed. The result is skin that is re-trained, rebalanced and revitalized,” Ruud added.
