As you go through your daily skin ritual, bring mindfulness and intention to your skincare experience.....remembering that the act of self massage anywhere on the body is an act of self love and nourishment.
Normal - Dry Skin
Normal Skin is skin that appears to be functioning in a balanced state, neither too dry nor too oily. It is usually blemish free with small pores and a fine texture. The main objectives in caring for a normal skin is to use gentle cleansers and moisturisers to keep the skin healthy and protected.
Morning DAILY RITUAL:
- Cleanse with Almond Wash Cream and it's companion Lavender Bath Essence to gently exfoliate, aid circulation and deeply cleanse the pores without stripping the skin's natural moisture layer. If time is short Almond Wash Cream may be used on it's own in your normal morning shower routine.
- Tone with Essence of Flowers Toner a pre-moisturising mist to hydrate, restore balance and harmonise mind and body.
- Moisturise with either Apricot Day Cream, especially useful in the autumn or winter months or Aloe Rose Day Cream during the warmer months to keep the skin balanced and supported.
Evening DAILY RITUAL:
Remove makeup with Almond Cleansing Milk
- Complete the evening treatment by applying a small amount of Extract 01 onto the palm of the hand and gently press into the skin to facilitate absorption.

Fortnightly Treatment:
- Clay Mask Powder or Rose Petal Mask Powder (for sensitivities). Complete the treatment by applying a generous layer of Rosehip 03 Oil or Aloe Rose Day Cream for a rich soak in botanical nutrients.
Dry Skin
The skin may become dry due to too much sun, wind, harsh chemicals, poor diet, aging or lack of enough fluid intake. Dry skin may fall into two categories or be a combination of both. Dry skin that is lacking natural oil and/or dry skin that lacks moisture (water). Skin that is dry needs gentle cleansers, anti-irritant, hydrating and protective vegetable oil based moisturising creams with a high content of essential fatty acids and moisture preserving botanicals. Regular gentle exfoliation and the use of masks will assist to prepare the skin to receive nutrients. Harsh chemical exfoliants should be avoided.
Morning DAILY RITUAL:

Combination / Oily Skin
Combination skin is chacterized by the existence of two or more different conditions. The skin may be oily around the nose, forehead and chin, but dry or dehydrated on the rest of the face. Occasional blemishes and blackheads may appear in the oily areas.

Mature Skin
When we look at classifying Mature Skin, we are really referring to the natural biological aging processes. While we may still have varying 'skin types', most all mature skins will benefit from additional skin nutrition, externally and internally. As the skin processes slow down, a number of skin functions begin to decrease. The skin loses it's ability to bind moisture, production of sebum decreases - often leading to a dry or flaky skin texture. Fine lines may begin to appear as the skin becomes less elastic and less resilent.
Sharca Organics Rejuvenating products have been especially formulated to meet these needs of mature skin on a daily basis. Used together they assist the skin to feel renewed, soft, supple and radiant.
Morning DAILY RITUAL:
- Cleanse with Almond Wash Cream and it's companion Lavender Bath Essence to purify, exfoliate and prepare the skin to receive dermal nutrition.
- Tone with Rejuvenating Serum to firm and smooth the skin
- Moisturise with Rejuvenating Day Cream over the entire face and neck area to nourish, deeply hydrate, tone and rejuvenate.
Evening DAILY RITUAL:
Weekly:
- For skin exfoliation and deep cleansing begin with Almond Wash Cream. Follow up with a generous application of Quince & Grape Vitality Mask to heal, regenerate and deeply nourish the skin.
Special Care:
FOR ALL SKINS
We recommend that all our moisturisers be applied to the skin AFTER first hydrating the skin with our Facial Toners.
Our moisturisers do not contain sunscreen as they are applied mornings only. A sunscreen needs to be reapplied during the day - according to the SPF factor. We recommend using a natural mineral based sunscreen powder over our moisturisers for added protection.
