SCHAF SKINCARE | FACIAL MOISTURIZER

This review was originally part of my blog article titled, Brands I Love: Schăf Skincare - Among the Best Natural Skincare for Face. You can still catch the full piece here.

Repeat after me. Schăf rhymes with 😂!

So…meet Schăf! It’s a new, clean, 100% natural skincare range from my friends up north — Canada.

Schăf was founded by a guy named Peter Schafrick (oh, I’m happy he cut that short for the brand!) and his wife. They came to the same realization a lot of us have now — that our skincare has been loaded up with all kinds of stuff that isn’t very good for our skin.

Peter says, “It shocked us to find out we were constantly coating our faces with irritants and sensitizers like synthetic preservatives, sulfates, dyes, parabens, petroleum, mineral oils, silicones, essential oils and fragrances – all the nasty stuff that’s proven to trigger sensitive skin.”

So they created a clean skincare collection of 3 products, each formulated with ingredients that were really pro-skin health.

The Schăf Face Moisturizer is a personal fave.

The vegan formula is light, fluffy and legit packed with goodness. It’s a nourishing blend of natural and organic, non-fragrant plant oils like antioxidant Grape Seed Oil, Avocado Oil, Jojoba Oil, and cold pressed Hemp Seed Oil — rich in Omega fatty acids, vitamins and minerals.

What surprises me about the formula is the high concentration of skin-fortifying peptides. I love this stuff! While it’s heavy on pro-skin health actives, it never feels heavy on my skin. And that’s nothing to laugh about!

Check out the entire Schăf range of clean Canadian skin care.
