One of the thoroughly awesome things about being an opera singer is getting to regularly visit my “dark side.” Sometimes my character is a wise, kindly person; but usually I run around swearing vengeance, plotting evil, seducing, poisoning and/or generally stirring up trouble. Since I (almost) never do any of these things in my regular life; it’s pretty amazing that I get to be really bad on stage. Right now, the character I’m preparing communes with the devil and predicts the future. How much does that rock?
It just so happens that pondering my dark side on a Saturday morning fits in ever so nicely with a review of fabulatious (probably not a word) body care from Giovanni Organic Cosmetics' D:Tox System™ Purifying Body Care line.
Blurb: Back to Black. The new D:tox line of products from Giovanni Organic Body Care are made from activated charcoal and volcanic ash that delves into pores, absorbing the day’s toxins, impurities and excess oils that interfere with skin clarity. Traditional detox methods have generally targeted the inner body, extracting toxins for a healthier, more energetic body. However, our skin is the first line of defense against life’s stressful encounters and Giovanni’s D:tox System intends to ease the brunt while also striving for healthy and energized skin. Hand – harvested goji and acai, exotic super-antioxidants, nourish and rejuvenate, infusing skin with vitamins and minerals, re-establishing skin to its smoothest state. Skin will be soft to the touch and gently fragranced by essential oils of luscious fig and clean green tea.
I was really excited to try this line out. Here are the four products:
Purifying Body Wash
Blurb: Out with the bad: a unique combination of activated charcoal and volcanic ash delves into pores, absorbing the day's toxins, impurities and excess oils that interfere with skin clarity. In with the good: hand-harvested acai and goji berry, exotic super-antioxidants, nourish and rejuvenate, infusing skin with vitamins and minerals, re-establishing skin to its smoothest state. You'll be soft to the touch, gently fragranced by essential oils of luscious fig and clean green tea. Pure and natural.
Purifying Body Bar
Blurb: Purify comes deep within skin with triple milled D:Tox System purifing body bar. Super-cleaning activated charcoal and volcanic ash lift pore-clogging toxins, oils and debris-readying them to be rinsed away. Hand Harvested, antioxidant rich acai and goji berry infuse skin with the vitamins so critical to smooth, beautiful, purely touch worthy skin. The result is skin with noticeable clarity, gently fragranced with essential oils of luscious fig and clean green tea, pollutants lost, purity found.
Purifying Exfoliant Body Scrub
Blurb: Deep within skin, debris and toxins reside, clouding your skin's natural radiance. Polish them away with D:Tox System™ purifying exfoliant body scrub. Activated charcoal and volcanic ash combine, diving deep into pores, absorbing debris. Whisking away bacteria and toxins. Making way for exotic acai and goji berry, super-actioxidants hand-harvested at their peak for maximum nourishment. Skin is left gently fragranced with essential oils of luscious fig and clean green tea. Giving you clarity of mind, body and soul.
Replenishing Body Lotion
Blurb: Purity has been restored-now it's time to re-establish skin to its softest! smoothest state. Replenish and hydrate by reintroducing skin to what's pure: exotic and goji berry super antioxidants hand-harvested and delivered directly to your skin, intensely nourish, rejuvenate, and infuse skin with vitamins and minerals. Smooth all over-let skin drink in the natural scent of luscious fig and clean green tea. It's moisture without clogging pores. It's softness without sacrificing purity. Only skin infused with something so natural could radiate like this.
Okay, to begin with, the Wash, Bar and Scrub are all black and look really cool. Does that have anything to do with their effectiveness? No, but it’s cool. And they are effective. The Bar and Wash did a great job of cleaning and soothing. They had a delicate fig fragrance and felt amazing on my skin. I especially loved the Scrub. It warmed slightly when I rubbed it between my hands and on my skin. It wasn’t a “hard” scrub, but my skin felt pampered, soft, smooth and glowing after I finished. The Body Lotion is a perfect final step. It felt wonderful, absorbed quickly, hydrated extremely well and the softness lasted.
I loved using these products. They're full of nourishing ingredients, have a beautiful scent (from the fig and green tea), work well together, and made my skin feel great. And to satisfy my “light side,” Giovanni has pledged to donate a portion of its proceeds from the D:tox line to the National Breast Cancer Foundation. Rad.
D:tox products are available on the Giovanni website, drugstore.com and places like Whole Foods.
