If someone asked me if I would like to hydrate and soften my skin with crushed gemstones, I would say yes. Yes, I would. Herbivore Botanicals has created a hydrating body polish for our dull, winter skin that is made with super finely ground amethyst crystals. How very luxurious! (And how apropos to do with February’s own birthstone.) Known for its revitalizing energy, crushed amethyst is used as a gentle exfoliant in Herbivore’s formula and promises silky-smooth, luminous skin. Besides that, amethyst has historically held cultural significance amongst everyone from the ancient Egyptians to the Anglo-Saxons. It’s also a symbol of royalty. And it’s glittery. Shall I go on?

Inspired by other sparkly gemstones, Herbivore also offers Emerald Deep Moisture Glow Oil, Lapis Facial Oil, and Rose Quartz Illuminating Body Oil. And for those of us who just can’t get enough fancy jewels on our skin, there’s the Jade Facial Roller, along with a Rose Quartz Facial Roller and Gua Sha massage tool. Through gentle massage, these beautiful tools help to improve facial circulation and elasticity one gem at a time! Let’s pamper ourselves right into springtime!
