with banera
Give your skin the royal treat that it deserves with Banêra’s scrubby sensations. We have taken all the best natural exfoliating ingredients like sugar, rock salt, and ground almonds and mixed them with moisturizing butters and fragrant oils to leave your skin smooth, radiant and spotless. Our products are handmade and consist of 100% natural and organic ingredients bought from companies that do not commission animal testing.
Bomb Ubtan (Customer Favorite) This heavenly blend of turmeric, ground almonds and a soothing blend of lemon, rose and jasmine oils has become the customer favorite. A quick scrub with this grainy cleanser leaves skin calm, balanced, soft and smooth, and because it’s so gentle, anyone can use it.
february 25, 2018 | 68
Himalayan Salt Rose Scrub Exfoliating, hydrating, pore tightening...what doesn’t this scrub do? Banêra’s classic scrub has a mineral-rich mix of fine and coarse Himalayan rock salt for serious exfoliation, balanced with coconut oil and shea butter to soften the skin. Just one scrub with this peppermint infused beauty and you’ll adore it.
We created a lightweight daily facial oil to intensely revitalize skin, instantly replenish moisture and revive radiance. Made from rose water, coconut and lemon oil and lemon peel, this lightweight, quickly-absorbed formula effortlessly melts onto skin leaving a non-sticky, velvety-soft finish.
weekend | lifestyle
Radiance Oil
Wake Up Scrub White sugar and aloe vera help exfoliate and absorb excess oils leaving oily and acneprone skin feeling fresh and matte in the morning when you Wake Up (pun intended). Even oily skin can be sensitive, so we have made this one soft and soothing by adding shea butter, coconut and Vitamin E oil to calm redness and irritation.
Have a sweet tooth? This sugary treat was made for you! The true strawberry bubblegum flavor makes it a delightful pair. Fine castor sugar gives lips a gentle exfoliation and hydrating organic jojoba oil leaves them feeling soft, smooth and supple. The best part? Enjoy the delicious flavor by applying the lip balm to keep your freshly scrubbed lips soft and smooth.
