Osmia Organics introduces new Zucca Spice soap

Meaning pumpkin in Italian, the Zucca Spice soap is mainly made of organic pumpkin pulp.

With enzymatic exfoliating ability, pumpkin is being used in various skin care lines. The enzymes in pumpkin flesh gently sloughs dead skin cells, as skin becomes dry in winter.

Cell turnover is stimulated with the removal of the dead skin, and the skin is able to absorb nutrients more effectively.

Along with organic pumpkin, Zucca Spice soap also includes rosehip seed powder to exfoliate the skin.

The grounded rosehip seed powder provides a barely discernible, granular texture, and a gentle mechanical exfoliation to activate the enzymatic action of the pumpkin.

The vitamin A and antioxidant properties of rosehip seeds and pumpkin get absorbed in the skin after exfoliation.

Vitamin A, which is a precursor to retinoic acid, enhances the skin function and cell turnover rate. To retain turgor and elasticity of the skin, antioxidants prevent excessive oxidative damage to the skin.

Additionally, Zucca Spice also contains wild-harvested mango butter, which adds to the healing and emollient properties of the bar. Its skin-softening sea salt from France and naturally-occurring minerals help the skin to retain water.

Scented with organic coriander seed essential oil, the soap provides aromatherapeutic benefits to the skin. Coriander seed oil also provides soothing effect to the skin.

Contributing to the deeply soothing effect of the soap, the Zucca Spice soap also includes organic, sweet marjoram essential oil (warming); organic, sweet orange essential oil (uplifiting); and wild copaiba balsam (antiseptic), which are all used for pain-relief in aromatherapy.

Zucca Spice will be available for purchase in the first week of November.
