One of the newest products with Bamboo powder is Clé des Champs Spring-Summer Exfoliating Body Scrub. This French ECOCERT-certified organic skin care range was developed by a qualified acupuncturist. It is based on traditional Chinese medicine and reportedly designed to help skin adapt to the changing seasons. In addition to bamboo powder, this vivid red body scrub contains vegetable grains and organic poppy seeds for gentle exfoliation and skin softening.

As with food at the supermarket, provenance of ingredients is increasingly cited so consumers can feel more connected to their source. These Polynesian beach ingredients are well-positioned to ride the wave of this trend.
