Beauty and The
Bean
If you think soy is just something found in your morning
latte, your skin may be missing out.
Studies suggest soy works to reduce blotchiness and discoloration,
as well as moisturizing skin and reducing the appearance of
fine lines. That's because soybeans contain a host of isoflavones,
potent antioxidants that have been proven to improve skin
tone, reduce hyperpigmentation and even improve skin texture.
Decidedly Old Fashioned, Deliciously Modern:
SoyPure’s Skin Care Cleansing Bars
Mom
used to use good-old fashioned glycerin soap, so when
we first found SoyPure's Skin Care Cleansing Bars,
we were filled more with nostalgia than desire. One
try, and we were reminded why Mom's skin still looks
so smashing 30 years later.
Crafted from 99 percent natural ingredients including
5 percent soy flour, these gentle, fragrance-free bars
are paraben-free and ideal for daily use. First, the
Detoxifying Bar goes to work as Hawaiian volcano
mud salt and organic soy flour work together to unclog
pores. Next, the Exfoliating Bar removes the
top layer of dead skin cells and encourages skin regeneration.
Finally, the Moisturizing Bar calls upon shea
butter and cocoa seed butter to even out skin tone,
soothe and lightly moisturize.
Turns out, Mom still knows best.

Fresh Brings out the Beauty in Soy
Fresh's most popular cleanser calls upon the power of soy to
banish every day impurities and remove makeup.
The soap-free formula promises to help skin retain
moisture and elasticity, thanks to a high concentration
of isoflavonoids, courtesy of soybean germ extract,
a protein-rich extract.

Cream for $42, exclusively at Sephora.
