Australian Emu Bush

July 12, 2016

This exotic looking plant is the Australian native Emu Bush, also known as Poverty Bush. It survives very dry and harsh climatic conditions and its leaves have traditionally been used by the Australian aboriginal people for washing sores and cuts and for gargling due to its natural antimicrobial properties. The Phenolic Acids found in this unique plant behave like alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs). Alpha-hydroxy acids are often used in cleansing and exfoliating skin care products to help increase cell turnover by removing the "glue" in the upper layer of the skin that holds old and dead skin cells together. Certified organic Emu Bush Leaf Extract has been included in the Karinda Purifying Cleanser to gently remove dead skin and impurities leaving your skin feeling amazingly refreshed, clean and revitalised!
