A very warm and sunny welcome! Meeting you here leads us to believe that your daily skincare routine is as advanced as it is conscious. That said, there's a good chance that it mostly focuses on your face. Let's take a curious look inside your bathroom cabinet. What is the ratio between creams and potions for your face and body care products? It is probably the exact opposite of the surface the skin covers on your face and limbs.
Don't get us wrong, we're not saying you need to buy a huge number of body care products. It's rather about a qualitative understanding of your skin’s needs. The skin on your body -especially on your hands and décolletage, which are exposed throughout most of the year- is subjected to the same environmental stressors as your face. That's why not only does a more holistic approach to skin care make total sense, but also products that meet the same high standards as your facial care.
As light as they are, NAZAN SCHNAPP™ body care products are packed with the same active ingredients that moisturize, firm and strengthen the skin of your face. Take the beautifully silky LIGHTWEIGHT TREATMENT BODY LOTION, for example. It is formulated with Acmella Oleracea, also known as Paracress which tightens and stimulates collagen fibres, thus enhancing the skin’s density. And who wouldn’t want those problem areas to be visibly firmer and smoother? Not to mention the radiant softness those deeply moisturized limbs owe to a beautiful bouquet of antioxidant-rich botanicals such as Tiaré flower, Evening Primrose, Orchid, Lotus, Jasmine and Magnolia. Linden flower, camellia and witch hazel are intensely soothing after a long day in the sun and colloidal gold acts as a booster of all these amazing benefits.
Nazan loves to mix her body lotion with one of her body oils, with or without shimmer, depending on her mood. Both, the LIGHTWEIGHT TREATMENT GLOWING & HYDRATING BODY OIL as well as the LIGHTWEIGHT TREATMENT SHIMMERING BODY & HAIR OIL are nourishing and ultra-hydrating blends of the finest Orchid and Jasmine botanical extracts and precious oils of organic Camellia, Jojoba, Sacha Inchi, Milk Thistle, Chardonnay Grape, Apricot, Sweet Almond and Evening Primrose. The heavenly light and fast absorbing formula permeates into the deeper layers of your skin, leaving it lastingly hydrated, glowing and soft, with a velvety touch. Both oils are also fabulous as a nourishing and moisturizing treatment for summer hair, giving it gorgeous texture and taming flyaways.
Whichever of the NAZAN SCHNAPP™ body products you choose as your companion through a delightful summer, they will all seduce you with their beguiling, fruity-floral, slightly exotic, slightly spicy bouquet of fragrances. It embraces you all day long into the night and makes a perfume -that doesn't get along particularly well with the sun and a sultry climate anyway- superfluous.
Enjoy the unrivalled NAZAN SCHNAPP™ skin sensation from head to toe and have an unforgettable summer!
]]>It is a widely known wise saying: “Prevention is better than cure”. Nazan strongly believes this also to be true for the youth preservation of our skin. We should always take care of ourselves the best we can. Therefore, not just anti-aging skincare is the solution, but also youth preserving skincare. Often, it is difficult to find products that are not too intense for the younger skin. Skincare that is made to preserve your youth and not reverse the aging processes.
This is where the Luminous Youth Diamond Collection can help. The whole collection is dedicated to preserving your skin’s youth in a gentle and enjoyable way. Nazan has formulated five different luxurious masterpieces by combining only the best of nature’s treasures with modern technology - creating highly effective cleantech beauty treatments that are simply luminous. Find out about the secrets of this fountain of youth by NAZAN SCHNAPP™ , beauties.
Puffy and wrinkly eyes are not an option, if you use this particular masterpiece from NAZAN SCHNAPP™ . The Luminous Youth Diamond Eye Crème is a luxury treatment that speaks for itself. Apply just a drop of the silky Crème on the delicate eye area and you will see and feel the effects immediately. You will actually feel your skin tightening and lifting.
The Luminous Youth Diamond Eye Crème will make your eye area brighten and revitalize it from within. The minerals contained in this small giant will increase the elasticity of your skin and hydrate it profoundly. If used regularly, you will never look tired again. Dark circles and under-eye bags will never bother you and wrinkles and fine lines will fade away.
Nazan combines low sized and high sized molecular hyaluronic acid in the Eye Crème. The high sized acid takes care of your skin surface, while the low sized acid can penetrate deep into the skin and ensure a long-term effectiveness and youth preservation. Moreover, the Eye Crème contains extracts of various precious flowers, which results in the luscious, flowery scent. Active Cells of the Tuberose, a flower with hydrating and anti-inflammatory properties and real Diamond Powder are also part of this silky crème.
The diamond powder contained in all the the Luminous Youth Diamond products smoothens and tightens the skin. It opens skin pores, which helps other healthy nutrients to sink into your skin. At the same time, it exfoliates your skin deeply and is good against different kinds of breakouts.
Simply put, the Diamond Powder is like a real-life beauty filter. As the diamond powder on your skin reflects the sunlight, the ultra-fine pigments convert the sunlight into blue and green light. It gives the skin a natural shine and makes visible pores or wrinkles optically disappear – this is the so called “blurring effect”. Unwanted skin shine is absorbed by the diamond powder and the skin looks more even, which results in a healthy complexion.
To make your complexion even more radiant, one NAZAN SCHNAPP™ masterpiece should always be within your reach: The Luminous Youth Diamond Essence. Apart from diamond powder and hyaluronic acids it contains a beautiful bouquet of white flowers and plant extracts.
They are all blended by hand in our in-house laboratory to create this highly efficient and luxurious Essence. The careful production and above all the precise formulation by Nazan herself, are the key to a rehydrated and glowing skin. If used regularly, this skincare jewel will slow down your skin’s ageing process significantly and permanently. All you need to do is to spray a few pumps of the flowery Essence on your face every day. Be beautiful – effortlessly
As the Essence contains so many different extracts of flowers, its scent is utterly enchanting. White Lily, Lotus, Gardenia, Frangipani and White Mulberry are some ingredients that create the floral, warm scent with a hint of honey. All while caring for your skin, hydrating and smoothening it to a perfect complexion. A very special ingredient, however, should not be left out, as it is main component of the Essence…
A beautiful and romantic flower, the Bulgarian White Rose or as said above the “Rosa Alba” is indispensable for the Luminous Youth Diamond Essence. Rose Water is full of natural antioxidants and the most precious vitamins for your skin. Anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties in the rose water make it a perfect ingredient even for the most sensitive type of skin. Even if you have especially dry skin, this main ingredient in the Luminous Youth Diammond Essence can help. It will support the regeneration process of the skin, have a very calming effect on and provide intensive hydration.
What’s most astonishing, is that rose water has anti-aging effects of its own. It will gently smoothen the skin and add to its elasticity. Combined with all other powerful ingredients in the Essence you could only imagine what this masterpiece can achieve... Or you could try it right away…
For the full Luminous Youth Diamond experience only two masterpieces are left to present to you. The Luminous Youth Diamond Day Serum and Night Serum. These two beauties guarantee the best care for your skin – day and night. The Luminous Youth Diamond Serums are light, potent, ultra-hydrating and delicate formulas. They combat the most common signs of aging, lift, plump and protects the skin from dehydration. As all the Luminous Youth Diamond masterpieces they prevent the skin from ageing and reduce wrinkles or make them disappear completely.
While the Day Serum protects the skin from sun damage, oxidation and other elements that our skin fights against every day. At night, it’s time for your skin to regenerate and renew its skin cells. This is where the Luminous youth Night Serum comes into use. They contain 26 highly effective extracts of various plants and more.
For the regeneration process of the skin, Nazan uses a revolutionary technology in these Serums. They contain actual plant stem cells from the Gardenia. These stem cells stimulate the production of new skin cells and speed up the regenerating process of the skin. If you are curious how exactly these stem cells work and how they’re obtained, check out our blog article “The Gardenia – Beautiful Inside and Out”.
However, there is another component inside these serums, which may be interesting to know about. We all know this flower as we love to keep it on our windowsills: The exotic Orchid Flower!
But what effects does it have on your skin? Nazan has formulated the Luminous Youth Diamond Serums with the extract of the Wild Orchid. Orchid has been used in Asia for centuries for its reparative and protective properties. They are very well known for their moisturizing properties, fighting free radicals, increasing skin immunity and reducing the appearance of fine lines. It is ideal for all skin types and is rich in minerals, which also exist naturally in the skin, for example zinc, calcium, magnesium, iron and copper. In addition to that, sugar and polysaccharides help to seal in moisture. This will make your skin look even healthier and give it a fantastic glow.
The beautiful Orchid flower is also part of another Luminous Youth Diamond product… the Jasmine Orchid Youth Protecting Face Oil. This sunny yellow face oil is like an everyday full SPA-treatment for the dry and stressed skin. Of course, Orchid extract is not its only precious ingredient. Camellia Seed Oil, Jasmine Flower Extract, Squalane and many more work together in order to reinforce the skin’s barrier. They make it resistant to external influences, maintaining a healthy complexion and hydrating your skin. This contributes to the youth preservation.
However, the youth preserving effects of the flowery Jasmine Orchid Face Oil are significantly increased with one special ingredient: Actual leaf cells of the Jasmine flower. These active plant cells are effective in the top layer of your skin, the epidermis. The single cells support the regenerating process of your skin, which is central for the youth preservation. Fascinating, isn’t it?
Now, we’ve told you everything about how to maintain a perfect glow and healthy, young skin… So, it’s time for some color with the wondrous Luminous Youth Diamond Lip and Cheek Balms! Four balms of different shades are named after the characteristics of our founder Nazan Schnapp: “Self Respectful”, “Self Aware”, “Self Confident” and “Self Reliant”. Three more Balms are also part of the Collection. The Luminous Youth Diamond Lip Balm is a colorless treatment for your lips, while there is also the Luminous Youth Diamond Sheer Bronzer and the Sheer Highlighter Balm.
With all these different Balms a base is laid for your make-up. The Balms can altogether be used as lip balm, cheek balm or even eye shades, as all the ingredients are 100% natural – just like every other NAZAN SCHNAPP™ masterpiece.
The Luminous Youth Diamond Lip and Cheek Balms do not only look fabulous, but they care for your skin at the same time. They are filled with precious ingredients that are high in antioxidants and contain an essential amino acid, which has lifting and pluming effects. And don’t forget the Diamond Powder for the extra care and sparkle!
With all these beautiful masterpieces by NAZAN SCHNAPP™ prevention is made pretty simple, right?
Experience the effects of Nazan’s formulas at first hand right away here, beauties!
The Jasmine Flower has been used in many ways throughout history. If you’re feeling down or you’re lacking in motivation, a Jasmine aromatherapy may help. It has a warming, relaxing and antidepressant effect and will make you feel more self-confident and optimistic. However, make sure not to use it in high doses, as too much Jasmine can lead to headaches.
Probably you already know about Jasmine Tea, too. Its production is very challenging as you can’t just use the dried flowers as tea. Instead, green tea is used as a base for Jasmine Tea. The flowers are handpicked while they are blooming, one by one between 3am and 10am. This is when they have the strongest aroma. After they’re picked, the flowers are usually laid on or mixed with green tea so they can transfer their wonderful aroma on the tea leaves. This process is repeated up to six times for the perfect aroma.
This sweet scent of the Jasmine Flower is also part of the NAZAN SCHNAPP™ Products. Numerous products contain the extract of the little white flowers. About 714 kilograms of flowers, that is about six million jasmine flowers, are needed for just one kilogram of Jasmine Extract! Incredible, right? Although, the scent is certainly not the main reason why Nazan uses these nocturnal beauties in many products. What’s most fascinating is the positive effect they have on your skin. Jasmine is known for its antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties. It treats skin gently but very effectively, which is why you can use it for any skin type. Even if you have problems with eczema or acne, Jasmine can help. As seasons are changing our skin is more stressed. That’s when Jasmine oil is especially useful. It will replenish the skin with a natural moisture and restore its vitality. That’s not all: Jasmine even has anti-ageing effects and increases the elasticity of your skin, all while giving it a wonderful glow.
Just like with the beautiful Gardenia, Nazan goes one step further when formulating with Jasmine. The Luminous Youth Diamond Night Serum even contains leaf cell extract of the Arabian Jasmine. So actual single cells of the plant are inside the serum – isn’t that fascinating? These leaf cells help your skin rebuild and regenerate more quickly and effectively for an even stronger anti-ageing effect.
You can experience this miraculous beauty of nature and all its benefits on your skin in the following products:

Water is essential for various parts of our body. It transports important nutrients to where they are required. One of the most important functions, however, is to flush out toxins from the body. Our main detoxifying organ is the kidney. It is like a filter, which cleanses large amounts of our blood each day and filters out toxins. The proper functioning of the kidney depends on the amount of water we drink every day. Water is absolutely essential for this vital organ to function.
…add them to your water! One of Nazan’s morning habits is drinking lemon water each and every morning. Lemons are known for their high amount of Vitamin C. They have strong antibacterial and antiviral properties and a boosting effect on your immune system. The electrolytes contained in lemons balance the pH value of the blood, help your muscles function properly, improve brain function and many more. Lemon water helps detoxify your body and is good against colds – so it is especially useful during wintertime. It is even more effective, if the lemon water is warm and if you drink it on an empty stomach in the morning.
Conclusion: Drink at least two liters of water per day, beauties! And in the morning, add some lemon juice to it. It will make you feel rejuvenated, happy and energized. Plus, it detoxifies your body! If you often forget to drink enough water, set an alarm to remind you of doing so, or get a water bottle you always carry with yourself.
Stay healthy, beauties! <3

This beautiful white flower is called “Gardenia” and has a very long history in medicinal and symbolic use. The gardenia has its origin in the Asian region, more accurately, mostly in China and Japan. It symbolizes wonderful things, such as clarity, purity, hope, trust and love. Therefore, the Gardenia is often used in wedding bouquets or as a gift for a person very dear to you. Due to the Gardenia’s wonderful jasmine-like smell, it is often used in aromatherapy. Its scent is proven to dissolve fear, promote sleep and have a strong calming effect. In Traditional Chinese Medicine it is even used to treat anxiety or depression.
However, not only the smell of the beautiful Gardenia is beneficial. The extract of this exotic flower is very useful for skin treatments too. Nazan uses the fruit extract of the Gardenia Jasminoides as a valuable ingredient in numerous products. The extract, which is obtained from the fruit of the Gardenia Jasminoides, is rich in antioxidants and doubles the production of collagen, which increases the elasticity of the skin. It is good against inflamed skin and reduces wrinkles, plus it brings the products the aromatherapeutic scent, making them an irreplaceable indulgence for your skin and senses.
As the Gardenia has such great effects on the skin, Nazan went a step further in its use. Apart from the fruit extracts she also uses real stem cells from the Gardenia in the Luminous Youth Diamond Day Serum and the Luminous Youth Diamond Night Serum. The stem cells of the Gardenia stimulate the production of collagen in your skin, balances and protects your skin from collagen loss. Thee stem cells of the Gardenia are obtained from parts of the plants where it is constantly reproducing its cells. Mostly, from the tip of its roots or the flower bud.
The Gardenia perfectly represents our philosophy: NAZAN SCHNAPP™ concentrates all of nature’s beauty in the carefully formulated products. It is an exploration of only the best and most wholesome parts of nature, from whole gemstones to single flower cells. It is newest technology and nature in perfect symbiosis, clean and vegan.
The Gardenia is used in the following products:

There are numerous ways to maintain good health and rid your body of toxins. Fasting, drinking only juices for several days or drinking warm water with lemon juice on a regular basis are just a few ways to rid your body of toxins. Nazan Schnapp herself loves drinking lemon juice every morning: It is a great day starter, flushes out toxins from the body and boosts your metabolism while also improving your digestion. And it is so easy!
Yet, however much we try to live healthily and maintain a fit lifestyle our skin needs detoxifying treatments. Especially, if you live in a city or workwise spend a lot of time there, the smog will clog your pores and leave negative effects on your skin. Or if you have the habit of touching your face during the day – and let’s be honest, we all do that sometimes - there is always some microscopic dirt that gets into the pores. If not detoxified or cleansed properly, your skin will lose its glow and become lackluster.
To prevent that from happening, Nazan Schnapp has developed a detox cure for your skin alone: the Detoxing Jade Collection. This nurturing collection consists of the Detoxing Exfoliant Cleanser, the Detoxing Jade Mask and the Signature White Jade Face Roller. So every step of the way to a vibrant and detoxified skin is covered!
The Detoxing Jade Collection is a blend of various natural ingredients that detoxify and refresh the skin, giving it a new radiance. It is perfect for every type of skin, even the most sensitive one. Its name originates from one of the key ingredients, the green mineral “Jade”. The Jade Stone is known as highly calming and encouraging lymphatic drainage.
The Detoxing Exfoliant Cleanser is a gentle daily exfoliator. It contains anti-inflammatory, natural exfoliating, cell-renewing and brightening ingredients:
For a clean, balanced and hydrated skin. It does not only cleanse, detox and calm your skin, but it also gently exfoliates with organic Musk Rose Hip Seed Powder to smooth and polish dead skin cells away leaving skin feeling and looking fresh.
How do the natural ingredients bring about all these effects? And to which ingredients do we owe which effects? In the following, we would like to explain some of the exotic ingredients used in the Detoxing Jade Collection – in a little more detail.
Pineapple
An important ingredient in the Detoxing Jade Collection is the exotic and sweet pineapple. It is not only delicious and healthy to eat, but also has a fantastic effect on your skin.
Pineapple makes your skin glow up and soften. It contains a whole lot of vitamins and minerals your skin can benefit from.
Aside from that, the yellow fruit is rich in alpha-hydroxy acid. This is a plant-derived acid, which sheds off dead skin cells and therefore lets your skin shine in a new splendor. What’s more, the natural acid lightens age marks and sunspots, reduces wrinkles or even makes them disappear completely.
As several studies have shown, the pomegranate is a truly impressive fruit with myriad benefits for your health and your skin.
The pomegranate is a strong antioxidant, which means it helps prevent your skin from ageing. However, the most important constituent for our Detoxing Jade Products are the various natural acids in this wonderful fruit. Amongst them is salicylic acid, which penetrates into the skin pores and detoxes it from the inside by exfoliating dead skin cells. It also reduces oiliness and lightens undesirable pigmentations.
French Green Clay – also called Sea Clay – is a very much praised ingredient for detoxifying treatments on the skin.
It is very rich in minerals, such as selenium, phosphorus, magnesium, iron and many more. Therefore, it nourishes your skin with precious trace minerals.
French green Clay is also known to remove impurities of the skin and absorb oil, which is great for skin prone to acne and for clogged pores. However, that is not all French Green Clay does: It is reported to increase circulation in the skin, calm inflammations and tighten pores. This results in a smooth and fresh skin tone.
These were just three of the many precious ingredients in Nazan Schnapp's Detoxing Jade collection, working together to free your skin of toxins and impurities. Let your skin feel as light and pure as nature has given it to you – take care beauties!

SHIMMER IN DARK GOLD
With the Lightweight Treatment Shimmering body and hair oil, the first thing you notice is the warm, deep golden colour. The oil has a flowing, glittering texture and has a rich smell. The scent can be described as sweet-floral and exotic, which is the result of the mixture of numerous nourishing flower extracts. The Lightweight Treatment Shimmering Body and Hair Oil also contains shiny minerals that make the skin shine in the sun. Like every product from Nazan Schnapp, the body and hair oil contains only natural ingredients. Extracts of various flowers and plants such as orchid, jasmine, camellia, sacha inchi, apricot and jojoba not only provide a summery scent for the skin, but also nourish it at the same time. The Lightweight Treatment Shimmering Body and Hair Oil does not only look beautiful, but also hydrates the skin in the long term, which is perfect for hot summer times.
FOR A REFRESHED COMPLEXION
Practical and effective: This rosy-warm scented essence is a must for every beach bag. The Luminous Youth Diamond Essence has a pump spray, making the summery refreshment particularly quick and easy to apply. A mixture of white flowers and diamond powder cares for the face inside out. The white rose (Rosa Alba) provides moisture, stabilizes the pH-value of the skin and has an antioxidant effect. The diamond powder smoothens, tightens and rejuvenates the skin together with the low-molecular hyaluronic acid. The diamond powder also plays an important role on the skin surface. The particles reflect the sunlight in such a way that the complexion gets a natural glow and evens out.
APRICOT-LIKE SUPPLENESS
The Lip and Cheek Balm in the colour "Self Respectful" is a real all-rounder. Just like the essence, it is part of the Luminous Youth Diamond collection. The Lip and Cheek Balms are available in four different colours, whose names all describe the characteristics of the founder Nazan Schnapp. Whether as lip balm, cheek rouge or highlighter - the golden-apricot tone "Self Respectful" is suitable for everything. The colour looks natural and has a soft shine. Active, botanical ingredients such as camellia, coconut and orchid extracts care for the skin and lips. Natural amino acids have a plumping effect on the lips and smoothen wrinkles, and in summer light the diamond particles shine especially beautifully.
LIGHTWEIGHT TREATMENT BODY & HAIR OIL
The Lightweight Treatment Body & Hair Oil is a light, fast absorbing, nourishing and ultra-hydrating blend of the finest Orchid and Jasmine botanical extracts and oils of organic Camellia, Jojoba, Sacha Inchi, Milk Thistle, Chardonnay Grape, Apricot, Sweet Almond and Evening Primrose. This heavenly combination permeates into deeper layers, restoring a healthy and lasting moisture from within and leaving a glowing, soft and velvet touch.
Lightweight Treatment Body & Hair Oil is a wonderful moisturizing treatment for dry, dull skin and dry ends of hair as well as a hydrating, soothing and restorative scalp treatment.
1. Soothe Stressed Skin - The change in seasons can stress our skin and lead to strange reactions and irritation. During this transitional period, I love to calm and balance my skin out by replenishing it with soothing and strengthening ingredients like Aloe, Gardenia, Gotu Kola and Bisabolol. My new Regenerating Amethyst Mask contains these and many more super-ingredients and is the perfect skin treatment to relieve and relax stressed-out skin. I love using it 2-3 times a week during the change in seasons or anytime my skin needs to re-balance.
2 . Transform Your Makeup into Treatment - A drop or two of facial oil mixed in with foundations can not only sheer out the coverage, but it also adds all the amazing benefits of the oil's ingredients into your makeup. In colder months, our skin usually needs that extra boost of hydration or protection from products that stay on our faces all day. I don't wear foundation but have always subscribed to the theory that your makeup products should be beneficial to the skin - which is why I created the Luminous Youth Diamond Lip and Cheek, Bronzer and Highlighter Balms. These balms are not only beautiful, they are packed with potent, moisturizing, youth-preserving ingredients.
3. Supplement Your Skin with Vitamin D - The summer sun is gone and with it goes our main source of Vitamin D. Vitamin D is an intergral part of our body and skin health but is not commonly found in plant-derived ingredients. It has strong anti-inflammatory properties and helps prevent skin damage and premature aging. Most of my products contain Camelia Oil which is a deep-penetrating oil that is rich in Vitamin D and in cell rebuilding nutrients.
4. Make the Most of Nightime - I love an overnight treatment. More often than not, there doesn't seem to be enough hours in the day to get everything done and practice the self-care our bodies so badly need and deserve. Many years ago, I realized I could be making the most of the time spent sleeping by incorporating overnight treatments into my life. As already mentioned, I love using the Lightweight Treatment Body & Hair Oil on my body, scalp and hair as an overnight rehydrating and smoothing treatment. Any and every one of the NS face oils make for a rich, exquisitely rejuvenating facial treatment.
5. Do NOT STOP Using Your SPF - Although we don't feel or see the sun as much during the autumn months, that doesn't mean that harmful UV rays are gone. Protecting your skin from sun damage is a MUST year-round. I formulate my products with skin-protecting and damage-reversing ingredients such as Camelia Oil, Rosehip Seed Oil and Jasmine Extracts, but never leave home without a physical sunblock protecting my skin.
Happy pampering!
Xoxoxo,
Nazan Schnapp
WHITE MAGNOLIA FACE OIL

All of the organs need water to function properly and since our skin is the largest organ of our bodies, we need to make sure it's properly hydrated. Drinking at least 1.5 to 2 liters of water a day will help your skin look fresh, healthy and glowing.
To switch things up a bit, we love infusing our water with ingredients like lemon, cucumber, mint, lime, strawberries, oranges, grapefruit, frozen berries and cinnamon.
PROTECT | YOUR | SKIN
Since the sun stays out longer and is a bit stronger during summer months, it is especially important to keep your skin protected from damaging and pre-maturely aging UVA/UVB rays. We love using our NS face oils, all rich in Vitamin A - which helps reduce and reverse sun damage, together with sun cream to safeguard our skin daily. Applying sun protection on the skin at least 30 minutes before exposure is key as well as physically blocking sun rays with hats or sun umbrellas.
PRACTICE | SELF | CARE
It's so important to remember to take time for yourself and for your skin year- round, but the summer months can do a real number on our skin and bodies. Not all schedules and budgets allow for monthly trips to a spa, but no matter. We are big fans of DIY and love mixing and matching our products for relaxing and refreshing at-home treatments. We'll be sharing some favorite customized NS facial treatments here very soon.
Not only is it a delicious fruit which transports our minds to beautiful, tropical places, Pineapple contains many benefits for the skin. Pineapple enzymes gently exfoliate the skin by dissolving dead skin cells leaving skin texture smoother, clearer with a restored healthy glow. Rich in Vitamin C and antioxidants, its anti-inflammatory and free radical damage repairing qualities also make Pineapple a beloved ingredient at Nazan Schnapp. Pineapple is found in our:
