TESTIMONAILS
Phyt’s products are so unique they are irreplaceable in the skincare market. Clients keep coming back time and time again for their favourites treatments. They fall in love with the textures, scents and the way the products love them back. It’s a huge bonus that they are aligned with nature with no nasties.
Clients receiving PHYTS facials always comment how amazing their skin feels and looks after a treatment even those with the most problematic skin conditions. Some of these people tried many other options, often without significant success. Phyt’s gives me, as a therapist, an opportunity to help them return their skin to a healthy state without taking risks associated to additives and harmful substances often present in other skincare.
I have been using Phyt’s exfoliator Contact+ for over a year now. It’s very gentle on the skin yet very effective. After I have used it, the open pores on my skin look smaller and the skin is smoother, softer. I use it once a week over the whole face and more often on the nose and chin where the skin is oilier and the pores more visible. The tube last me a while because you do not need to use a lot at a time. Great product!
