Exfoliation for the lazy: Tata Harper Regenerating Cleanser

Exfoliation is one of those often-overlooked skin-care steps that can help turn around virtually every beauty woe. But most people can’t be bothered to add one more step to their skin-care routine.

Fortunately, Tata Harper makes it easier on the laziest of us. Her Regenerating Cleanser is both a daily face wash and a gentle skin slougher. (Mark my words, you will see more of these multitaskers come fall.)

White willow bark helps keep pores clear, and apricot seed powder whisks away that top layer of dead skin cells (caked with dirt, makeup, sunscreen, and sweat) that’s muddying your otherwise radiant visage. The ingredient combo means you’re getting a double detox—and yet your skin won’t feel tight and dry after you use it thanks to aloe, pomegranate, and neroli extracts.

Even more astounding: Harper hand-makes her new, all-natural line using plants, herbs, and flowers she grows at her Vermont farm. Harper does the heavy lifting, so you don’t have to. —Melisse Gelula
