Oh, look, it’s raining again! April showers really are a thing. And quite annoying. But Korres have a lovely deal on on another tpe of April shower – the lovely warm variety we indulge in every morning!
Throughout the month of April, when you buy one Korres shower gel you get another one absolutely free. What’s not to love about this deal?!
The special twin packs of two shower gels come in four of the best-selling and most popular Korres fragrances – Water Lily, Basil Lemon, Japanese Rose, and Bergamot Pear.
The Korres formula is creamy, with a lasting moisturising effect. I love them. Wheat proteins form a protective film on the skin, maintaining its natural moisture level. Active Aloe, rich in vitamin C, vitamin E, zinc and antioxidant enzymes, enhances the skin’s immune system. Furthermore, due to its ability to stimulate collagen and elastin synthesis, Active Aloe helps reduce the visible signs of ageing
THE INGREDIENTS IN A LITTLE MORE DETAIL.
WHY WHEAT PROTEINS?
Wheat was cultivated in prehistoric times in fertile Mesopotamia. Ancient civilizations worshipped deities linked to wheat: for the Egyptians it was Osiris; for the Greeks goddess Demeter. Wheat has always been a symbol of good health and fertility while all stages of cultivation have forever been accompanied by rituals defining everyday life. Wheat aleurone, the thin layer under the bran, is the part of the wheat kernel with the highest content in vitamins and minerals. It contains an abundance of B2, which improves metabolism and aids the absorption of nutrients; B3 plays an important role in promoting healthy skin and B5 possesses regenerative properties.
WHY ALOE VERA?
Aloe Vera plant has been used for centuries as a medicinal plant thanks to its beneficial properties. References of it appear in many cultures: from the ancient Egyptians, Greeks and Romans, to the Indian and Chinese literature. Applied externally, it heals burns and wounds, stimulates cell regeneration and has significant antioxidant, skin softening and soothing properties.
