Nzuri Chamrhi is an excellent oil cleanser for all types of skin; from acne prone, oily, to sensitive and dry. The reason our cleanser works for all skin types, is the ingredients we have chosen to add to the oil blend. From Chia Seed oil to Pomegranate oil; we have carefully selected a range of oils that will benefit the skin in so many ways.

One of the ingredients in the Nzuri Chamrhi cleanser is 100% cold pressed organic Acai Berry Oil. The Acai Berry is native to Brazil and has a slight green colour due to the antioxidants it contains. Acai Berries are recognised as one of the most powerful antioxidant berries known.

Here are nine amazing benefits that Acai Berry Oil has to offer:

• Acai Berry Oil effectively restores the skin’s elasticity levels and is very easily absorbed by the skin - rather than sitting on the surface of the skin like some other oils. 
• Due to it’s anti-bacterial properties, Acai Berry Oil is super effective to aid skin conditions such as psoriasis and acne. 
• Acas Berry Oil helps to protect the skin from environmental aggressors and reduce the appearance of ageing. Using it everyday will protect your skin from environmental stressors, keeping your skin looking super healthy and glowing.
• It is also very effective for moisturising the skin and healing skin conditions related to dry and ageing skin, due to containing Vitamin E. Vitamin E can help firm and tighten the skin, and retains moisture as well.
• Acai Berry Oil is rich in phenolics, is full of anti oxidants and contains a load of nutritious fatty acids that help the skin look plump and tight!
• As Acai Berry Oil acts as a powerful emollient, it instantly relieves dry and cracked skin. 
• Compared to other skincare oils on the market, Acai Berry Oil retains it’s antioxidant levels over a long time. Many other oils tend to lose their nutritional benefits due to time, light exposure and atmosphere; however Acai Berry Oil has proven to be resistant  to these factors.
• Acai is a good source of Vitamin C, which is popularly known to firm, tighten and protect the skin.
• Acai Berry Oil contains Omega-3, Omega-6 and Omega-9 fatty acids. These acids help the skin look youthful and supple, and revive the look of dry and dull skin. If you’re getting enough fatty acids, your skin will look smooth and soft; however if you’re not, skin will appear dull, dry and slightly sagging. Acai Berry Oil gives you a good dose of Omega acids with every application.

As Nzuri Chamrhi contains a blend of Acai Berry Oil and a handful of other skin loving oils; it is no wonder that it can help to heal the skin from any troubles and ailments, to promote healthy and glowing skin. We only use the highest quality of cold pressed oils in our products, to ensure that our customers get healthy, glowing and trouble free skin!

Another BIG Reason To Use Nzuri Chamrhi

One of our most frequently asked questions is: “When are you going to bring out a face oil for dry skin?”

As we have not yet released a face oil for dry skin, as Merakhi is designed for oily to normal types, we have a super handy trick that involves our Nzuri Chamrhi cleanser.

Nzuri Chamrhi is our fabulous cleansing oil which helps with dark circles, pigmentation, acne, irritated skin, dull skin and so much more. It works with all skin types, from dry to oily, young to mature skin - to improve the overall appearance and texture of the skin. 

You’re probably wondering what Nzuri Chamrhi has to do with moisturising the skin, as it is a cleanser. Well, since it has moisturising properties in it as it helps to balance out the skin as well as to remove excess oil and add in any necessary moisture - it can be used after cleansing to moisturise dry skin.

How To Use Nzuri Chamrhi:

Before using Nzuri Chamrhi, we recommend giving the bottle a shake. Before washing your face, pour out a small amount of the oil and rub your hands together to warm up the oil. Then massage the oil directly on to your skin for 2-3 minutes, making sure to get the neck too. Using a hot cloth, remove the cleansing oil using gentle wipes. 

After removing the excess oil, rinse away and splash your face with cold water to close the pores. Then, taking a small amount of Nzuri Chamrhi, pat the oil into your skin and slowly massage the skin - as you would with a regular moisturiser.

After reading this, you’re probably wondering how could you use a cleanser as a moisturiser, as you wouldn’t be able to do this with regular store bought products. 

However, the ingredients in Nzuri Chamrhi are very gentle on the skin and all work together to heal and improve the quality of the skin - it is no wonder that it works to moisturise too. Nzuri Chamrhi contains a fabulous blend of miraculous oils including Acai Berry oil, Chia Seed oil and Pomegranate oil. Chia Seed oil is great during the cleansing process as it is great for unblocking pores and cleaning the skin. Pomegranate oil works amazingly to moisturise, as it heals the skin of any redness and inflammation. The Vitamin K, Vitamin C and Zinc in our cleanser helps to heal the skin, keep the skin supple and glowing.

How To Keep Your Skin Happy Through The Summer

As it is well into the summer season and we’re all making the most of the sun, getting a tan and some Vitamin D; we still have to protect our skin from excessive sun damage. Here are some tips to help you prepare and protect your skin from the sun.

Water: 

This tip might seem like a no brainer, but it is super essential to know. Drinking plenty of water is really important throughout summer, not just for internal health but for the health and appearance of the skin. Try to drink at least 8 glasses of H2O throughout the day. Although if you feel like you’re forgetful or don’t get thirsty that often, set hourly reminders to make sure you stay hydrated.

Protection:

This tip, too, is a no brainer. Please keep your skin protected from the sun by using sun blocks or sunscreen - to protect your skin from the sun’s harmful rays. When you don’t use a form of sun protection, an immediate reaction you get is sun burn. However, sun damage can occur over a lifetime and can lead to skin cancer. So it’s important to use sun protection of SPF 30 or higher.

After Sun:

Along with sun protection, it’s important to look after the skin after you’ve been out in the sun. If you would like a lovely tan, you need to keep your skin moisturised and hydrated as your tan will last longer. We also recommend using our Nzuri Chamrhi cleanser and Merakhi Face Oil on a night to help repair the skin after a long day in the sun. Nzuri Chamrhi can help to remove any extra grease and oil from the skin, giving it a deep clean! Merakhi will help to balance the skin - especially if your skin is naturally a bit more on the oily side, add moisture and keep you looking glowing.

Exfoliation:

To keep your face and body looking smooth, radiant and in tip top condition - exfoliation is a must. Try to exfoliate once a week, or twice if your skin can handle it. Exfoliation helps to get rid of dead skin cells, remove trapped dirt and prevent breakouts. Opt for an organic exfoliator, as the natural ingredients in it will work their magic to make your skin look amazing!

How Does Pomegranate Oil Benefit The Skin And Hair

Pomegranate Oil is one of our most favourite oils and since it carries so many amazing benefits. The oil is extremely nutritious and rich in vitamins and minerals. Due to it’s medicinal and cosmetic purposes, it is no wonder that it’s used in so many skincare products. It is high in Vitamin C and contains anti-inflammatory properties making it an essential product in a skincare routine.

We love using Pomegranate Oil so much that it’s in all three products, HAIRBEAST, Merakhi and Nzuri Chamrhi - along with a blend of other amazing oils - to help with many many skin and hair problems. It’s fruity fragrance gives our products a unique scent, which is prevalent in all of our oils.

To start off with, here are a few reasons why Pomegranate Oil is amazing for the hair:

1. Pomegranate Oil helps to rid the scalp of any product residue, dandruff and flaky skin. When the scalp’s hair follicles are clogged with any of these things, it damages the hair follicles and stunts hair growth. 
2. Along with cleaning the scalp, Pomegranate Oil also stimulates blood circulation in the scalp. Due to it’s high anti oxidant and vitamin content, the oil increases blood circulation, strengthens the blood vessels which stimulates and promotes hair growth. As HAIRBEAST is made from a blend of nutritious oils, it has a very high record of stimulating hair growth on those who have experienced bald patches, hair thinning and androgenic alopecia.
3. For people who experience scalp conditions like psoriasis or scalp eczema, Pomegranate Oil contains anti-inflammatory benefits so it helps to soothe and fight scalp bacteria. Therefore, any itchiness, redness, inflammation that come with these scalp conditions are alleviated when using the oil.
4. When blended with a carrier oil, or oils, - for example our HAIRBEAST oil - it makes for an amazing hair growth tonic. Massaging the oils into the scalp and on the ends of the hair help to promote hair growth and condition the hair. Pomegranate oil is a good source of Vitamin C, so it helps to strengthen the connective tissue within the hair follicles, stimulating hair growth.
5. If you’re finding that your hair gets greasy quickly, it could be that the pH level of your scalp is off balance. Using Pomegranate Oil helps to neutralise the effect of excessive oil production, reduce hair greasiness, fortifies and flushes out the any bacteria from the scalp.

Moving onto skincare, here are a few reasons why Pomegranate Oil is amazing for the skin - and how both our Merakhi face oil and Nzuri Chamrhi cleanser will give you these benefits and even more:

1. Pomegranate Oil contains an Omega 5 fatty acid called “punicic acid”, a polyunsaturated oil, which has strong anti-inflammatory qualities. The oil fights off free radicals to keep the skin from ageing and provides protects against sun damage.
2. The oil absorbs deeply into the skin without leaving any greasy residue behind, making it perfect for all skin types including oily skin. Pomegranate Oil penetrates deep into the skin and creates lasting and healthy moisture to keep the skin’s sebum production at bay. Merakhi is amazing for those with oily skin types as it helps to restore the skins’ natural oil production - making sure you don’t get greasy skin through the day.
3. For people suffering from acne, blemishes and scars; Pomegranate Oil works amazingly to reduce scars and pigmentation, heal the skin and soothe any inflammation. Apply Merakhi on a night time to your problem areas, and it will help to heal any breakouts, soothe redness and keep your skin looking and feeling healthier. Using the Nzuri Chamrhi cleanser on a daily basis will help to soothe acne breakouts and give the skin a deep clean; getting rid of any excess sebum and cleaning the pores.
4. On the topic of healing the skin, Pomegranate Oil contains a human compatible form of pro-estrogen, which supports hormonal balance in both men and women. This means that the oil works to help improve the texture of the skin.
5. Just like the pomegranate fruit itself, the oil is popular for its antioxidant properties. It helps with collagen production and firming the skin.

As we use Pomegranate Oil in all of our products, you are guaranteed to experience the many fabulous skincare and hair benefits that it will offer.
