Gentle peeling:
For a gentle peeling effect, lather the bar of soap in your hands and transfer the foam to your skin with your hands. This is enough to gently regenerate the skin and massage the active ingredients into the skin.
After a milky, soft film has formed on the skin, the Tepezcohuite is rinsed off again. After the treatment, the skin can be cared for with a pH-neutral body lotion.
This treatment can be done one to three times a week .
Effect:
The peeling ensures that the dead, upper layer of skin disappears, the active ingredients of the Tepezcohuite soap can penetrate the skin and the skin is renewed

Selma Hayek's beauty secret is Tepezcohuite

In an interview with Elle magazine, actress Selma Hayek revealed that her beauty secret weapon is a Mexican plant called 'Tepezcohuite':
“It is used in Mexico, for example, to heal burn victims, because Tepezcohuite completely regenerates the skin. (...) It always amazes me that nobody uses this natural ingredient in the US. Tepezcohuite is the reason I don't have botox, peels and fillers."
