New Year - New Routine? We want to use the start of the new year to give our skin a fresh start, not just mentally. Now is the right time to do something good for you, your body and your skin. Detox is like a reset button for everything, it has a detoxifying effect and gives you new energy. It is therefore also perfect for starting a new year. Our Cactus products with natural detox ingredients such as prickly pear seed oil are perfect for restarting your skincare routine.
detox for the skin
Especially in the cold winter months and the holidays around Christmas, various factors such as stress, eating too much, alcohol and dry heating air can have a negative effect on our skin. We want to change that quickly. What the skin really needs now: detox! Detoxifying the body has several advantages: you feel fitter and get new energy, your digestion gets going and your skin also visibly improves. Normally the body detoxifies itself. But if the body is confronted with an unusually high amount of pollutants and stress, such as in winter on Christmas days, it can't hurt to support it in the detoxification process.
Detox treatments such as sweating in the sauna, which help to sweat out harmful substances from the skin, or juice treatments to restore digestion and support the body in its natural cleansing process, can help. But the right care products also play a major role in making the skin shine again. We will help you to build up your Cactus care routine with HEJ and restore the balance of the skin.
Detox ingredients in Cactus
Our Cactus products are perfect for a detox care routine thanks to their natural and sustainable ingredients. With our Cactus series cleansing and care products, our goal was to create products that are suitable for every skin type and protect the skin from premature aging and external influences. This is how we came across the prickly pear cactus . The prickly pear cactus not only has wonderful properties for skin care, it is also very sustainable. It grows under the most difficult conditions and needs very little water. We will show you some of the power ingredients in Cactus and why your skin needs them for a fresh start: 
prickly pear seed oil:
The oil, extracted from the flowers of the prickly pear, provides your skin with plenty of moisture and helps it to retain it. The vitamins it contains create an antioxidant Effect that protects your skin from premature aging and small wrinkles.
Castor oil pearls :
They make your skin velvety soft and stimulate collagen production. This also counteracts premature skin aging.
Grapefruit extract:
Obtained from grapefruit seeds, the extract makes your skin velvety soft and tender . It also has an antibacterial effect and thus helps against impure skin. 
Argan oil :
The oil contains many antioxidants, essential fatty acids and vitamin E. This means that it acts as a moisturizer even for very dry skin and protects your skin from harmful environmental influences.
The right detox routine with Cactus

cleaning
The first step in your Cactus routine for a fresh start is cleansing for smooth, healthy skin. This removes dirt and makeup residue from your face and prepares it perfectly for the care products. Start with our Nourishing Face Tonic . It balances your skin and has a particularly refreshing and invigorating effect. Use a peeling 1-2 times a week to cleanse your skin. The Beautifier Face Wash & Peeling Gel cleanses your skin deep down to the pores and removes impurities. Otherwise, use the Purifying Cleansing Foam to gently cleanse your skin. It has a clarifying and balancing effect and is particularly well tolerated, even by sensitive skin.

booster
Especially after the holidays, your skin can use an intensive moisture booster. A gentle massage with the Gua Sha stone will relax your face and at the same time you can work a serum or mask effectively into the skin. The massage stimulates the skin, stimulates circulation and your face will be noticeably fresher and firmer. Use our Energizing Face Serum with highly concentrated active ingredients for an extra portion of fresh and intensive care. It not only counteracts premature skin aging, but also makes the skin noticeably more awake. Also use our Antioxidant Sheet Mask once a week. The antioxidants it contains protect the skin and provide extra moisture.

Care
Moisturizing your facial skin is extremely important in both summer and winter. Therefore, be sure to apply moisturizer to your face in the morning and evening. Choose between the Allrounder 24h Cream with hyaluronic acid and argan oil for plenty of moisture, the Protector SPF15 Cream with natural sun protection and long-lasting moisture or our Reactivator Face Fluid with a particularly light texture, it is ideal for oilier skin and as a primer under your make-up. Massage the cream gently into your skin in circular movements. Always remember: Even in winter, you should protect your skin from harmful UV rays and therefore always use sun protection.
