For naturally radiant skin. For hundreds of years, First Nations peoples have used the herbs in the popular Flor•Essence® Herbal Tea Blend to purify and detoxify their bodies.
Since its introduction to the general population in the last century, many people have found that Flor•Essence® has a beneficial effect when used topically, as well. Now, you can refresh, revitalize, rejuvenate your skin with this powerful combination of synergistic and nourishing herbs, enhanced with other potent cosmetic ingredients designed to penetrate and deliver the active ingredients into your skin.
Ideal for
all skin types, Flor•Essence® Rejuvenating Cream helps to normalize the functioning of the skin by supporting its innate intelligence. As the body’s largest organ,
the skin can regulate itself if given the right conditions. This non-greasy cream will hydrate and quench dry skin.
