We’re coming up on the last hurrah of the summer and gearing up for the fall. It’s hard to believe how quickly it goes by. I love the summer – the sun, the fun, easy breezy days at the beach –but what I don’t love is the damage and dryness that my skin suffers throughout those sunnier months. My skin has been exceptionally itchy and dry lately and I’ve been looking for something to not only cleanse my skin, but to moisturize it.
I was recently asked to try out the gentle Citrus Kombucha body wash from emerginC Scientific Organics, which is a company that works with top chemists and state-of-the-art labs to incorporate clinically proven cosmeceutical and medical-grade ingredients, active botanicals and marine extracts into its skincare products.
The Citrus Kombucha body wash is an extremely gentle, deep cleaning, fresh-scented brightening body wash that can be used on all skin types. What really sets this body wash apart are some of its unique ingredients such as:
• Kombucha – a fermented tea which aides in improving fine lines and wrinkles, reducing inflammation and irritation in the skin
• Aloe – delivers soothing properties to help calm skin irritation and replenish moisture
• Grape stem cells– also known as PhytoCellTec™ Solar Vitis, which help fight photo-aging and protect skin stem cells from UV stress
• Spirulina – this is one of the “super foods” you hear about. It’s loaded with phytonutrients, nourishes, re-mineralizes, energizes and improves skin function.
• Pinebark extract – it is a potent, natural antioxidant which helps improves the delivery of oxygen to cells and improves skin elasticity.
• White tea – it is a natural antioxidant that provides protection from solar-simulated ultraviolet light in skin, which slows the aging process.
• Green tea – it contains polyphenols, a class of bioflavonoid with high antioxidant properties (approx.200 times more effective antioxidant that vitamin E) to help repair free radical damage, soothe and calm skin. Tannins contained in green tea constrict blood vessels and provide a tightening effect on the skin.
I have become a fan of emerginC products over the last year or so and this product delivers just as their other products have for me in the past. The Citrus Kombucha body wash lathers up nicely, has a refreshing and invigorating fragrance and has become my “go to” body wash. My skin feels cleaner, moisturized and refreshed!
The body wash is available on the emerginC web site and at leading spas for $36.

I love products with active botanicaks in them, I feel that they are really improving my skin and not just leaving a perfume behind. The white and green tea extracts, especially are appealing to me!
I like that it is refreshing and skin tightening. For me it is important that the ingredients are gentle on the skin and not irritating. This sounds to be a very good product.
I love the wonderful ingredients in this body wash! Very nice!
I love trying new body washes & this one is new to me. I love citrusy scents, so this sounds great.
I have not tried this line of products , but I am interested because it contains the different teas, aloe and grape stem cells. These should all be very good for the skin.
I love trying out different body washes and this sounds like one to experience.
I have never used any of the emerginC products but the Citrus Kombucha body wash sounds great. I would love to try some of their face masks as well. Thank you for sharing this review.
I liked (and shared!) your “How to Make Strawberry Jam: Hot Damn, This is Good Jam” pin
Citrus I understand, but Kombucha on the outside of your body; I did not know this ~ how marvelous!
Looks like they put some good stuff in this.
Lots of great ingredients in this body wash. Wish we were gearing up of fall but it will be triple digit heat by mid-week. Good thing I love the heat!
