Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body and plays a critical role in maintaining the structure and strength of skin, bones, tendons, ligaments, and connective tissues. It's often referred to as the "glue" that holds everything together.

·         Prevents Breakouts: By keeping pores clean, they reduce the chance of acne and blackheads.

·         Balances Skin: A good cleanser maintains the skin’s natural pH and moisture barrier.

 STEP TWO: EXFOLIATING SCRUB (3X A WEEK)

Use Instructions

·         Wet your skin with lukewarm water.

·         Apply a small amount of scrub and gently massage in circular motions for 30–60 seconds.
