Purist Naturals Introduces an All New, All-Natural Skincare Collection

Moisturize with Peachy continues with Purist Naturals! This is our first experience with this brand, and we found it to be fresh, light and uplifting. Mother Nature has been around longer than any beauty counter and Purist Naturals realizes “Mother” does know best.

Incorporating herbal botanicals, flowers and essential oils into its skin care, Purist Naturals is a simple and natural way to make your skin healthy and beautiful, Purist Naturals Skin Care combines multiple botanical extracts with essential oil blends to create a collection that calms, soothes and hydrates skin. Clinically proven for safe, visible results and lightly fragranced with essential oil blends, Purist Naturals helps eliminate dryness, redness, irritation and inflammation, with its paraben-free and non-clogging formulations.

Whom You Know tried the Firming Green Tea Moisturizer – An anti-aging and aromatic cream, this firming moisturizer hydrates, soothes and encourages collagen stimulation. We like this better as a day cream as opposed to a night cream and light the texture a lot. It is effective without being heavy. Brimming with algae, mallow, barley, aloe, shea butter and Hyaluronic acid, this lightweight cream is ideal for dry and sensitive skin.

Other items in the Collection, which we did not try, include:

Hydrating Hibiscus Milk Cleanser – This gentle, milky cleanser with hibiscus flower (to reduce redness), white lily (to soothe and calm) and meadowsweet (an anti-inflammatory), it aromatically and safely removes dirt, makeup and pollutants without stripping skin’s natural moisture balance. Simply massage into skin and remove with warm washcloth or cotton.
Restoring Gingko Eye Cream – For dark circles, puffiness, fine lines, wrinkles and irritated skin around the eye area, this delightful power packed eye treatment with Haloxyl, clinically proven to brighten dark eye circles, will reduce dark circles, soothe, moisturize, firm and eliminate puffiness. With ActiFirm, a combination of Echinacea and Hydrocotyl extracts to firm and tone, and linden flower, to soothe and hydrate, apply twice daily around the eye contour area and smooth in.
Luminous Ginseng Scrub – Discover the benefits of skin resurfacing, pure refining, cell regenerating, fine line smoothing, wrinkle reducing and radiance revealing all in one with this innovative scrub. Developed for those with sensitive skin, the Ginseng Scrub combines natural and effective rejuvenators—orange peel, licorice (an anti-inflammatory) and apple (to brighten and tone) with corundum, the micro crystals used in microdermabrasion treatments, for beautifully refreshed and revived skin.
Rosemary Refining Mask – A natural, aromatic pore refining treatment mask, this purifying and refining mask will open up pores and let skin breathe without over drying. With oil and blemish fighting extracts combined with a soothing essential oil blend, it features pore refining cinnamon bark and calming St. John’s Wort for skin that is clean, blemish free and spa-gorgeous.
Soothing Willow Foam Cleanser – With the aromatherapy benefits of orange, eucalyptus, and rosemary, this rich foamy face wash not only smells invigorating, but leaves skin clean and refreshed, without drying or clogging pores. Also featuring willow leaf extract (to reduce inflammation and redness) and bilberry extract (an natural antiseptic and astringent), simply apply to skin, massage and rinse.

Calming Cucumber Toner – With aloe vera, grapefruit seed extract and pine bark extract, this naturally purifying and aromatic toner soothes, nourishes, firms, and hydrates and refines pores for beautifully balanced skin. With specially selected anti-bacterial extracts, Calming Cucumber will reduce and prevent future breakouts.
Oil Free Citrus Moisturizer – Oily complexions will drink this cocktail of botanical extracts and oil absorbing herbs—including clary sage, rosemary and cinnamon extract. Featuring hawthorn extract, a soothing antiseptic; phellodendron bark and meadowsweet, Citrus Moisturizer hydrates, protects and leaves skin looking its healthy best without the shine.

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
