AROMATHERAPEUTIC

"This is my absolute, FAVORITE body product ever. The fragrance. The texture. The results." - Elaine S.

ADVANTAGES

ACTIVATE stands apart by combining physical exfoliation and circulatory stimulation through the use of volcanic pumice, which provides gentle, hands-on exfoliation while stimulating blood and lymph flow. Eucalyptus further amplifies circulation and fosters clarity and alertness. Steam from a warm bath or shower helps activate the therapeutic oils of eucalyptus, balsam fir, and palo santo. Despite its potent cleansing and detoxifying action, ACTIVATE remains microbiome-friendly, making it appropriate for dry or acne-prone skin.

ORIGINS

ACTIVATE is more than a body cleanser, it’s an invitation to reconnect with nature and restore both body and mind. Inspired by the transformative power of forest bathing, this formula is designed to cleanse more than just your skin. Infused with invigorating botanicals, it stimulates circulation, breath, and awareness, mimicking the way fresh mountain air and towering trees awaken the senses. As volcanic pumice smooths the skin, the grounding aroma of eucalyptus, palo santo, and balsam fir clears both congestion and mental fog, promoting clarity, vitality, and deep renewal. For an amplified experience, apply to dry skin before showering. Let this ritual transport you, reconnect you, and revitalize you.

INSTRUCTIONS

To use as a cleanser, apply to damp skin and massage in gentle circular motions. If in the shower, step away from running water to enhance absorption and minimize charcoal splatter.

To use as a concentrated mask, apply to dry skin and allow 3–10 minutes for penetration before rinsing at the sink, in the shower, or bath. Recommended for use one to two times per week.

A Routine For ACTIVATE

ACTIVATE - Make it a Routine

ACTIVATE Body Wash transforms daily cleansing into a revitalizing ritual. For best results, pair it with REFRESH and REPLENISH to create a complete, layered system that purifies, recharges, and nourishes the skin — leaving it smooth, hydrated, and glowing with vitality.

Step 1: Massage ACTIVATE Body Wash onto dry skin for a deeper exfoliation, or onto damp skin for a gentler cleanse. This energizing formula stimulates circulation and removes impurities to reveal fresh, polished skin. Rinse well and pat dry.

Step 2: Mist REFRESH Mineral Mist generously over clean skin. The fine, mineral-rich mist rehydrates, revitalizes, and prepares the skin for optimal absorption of moisture.

Step 3: While skin is still dewy, massage REPLENISH Body Oil in long, sweeping motions. This nutrient-dense oil restores elasticity, seals in hydration, and leaves behind a soft, radiant finish.

The result: smooth, supple, and luminous skin — invigorated by nature’s renewal and nourished from head to toe.

FAQs

Where does ACTIVATE fit into my routine?

Skincare starts with clean skin, and ACTIVATE is step I. in body care. Use it in the shower to cleanse, exfoliate, and invigorate. For best results, follow with a body oil or balm on damp skin to lock in moisture. To amplify skin health, mist REFRESH before applying oils or balms, helping nutrients absorb more deeply while revitalizing the skin.

Can ACTIVATE be used daily?

Can ACTIVATE be used daily? Absolutely. Many LINNÉ loyalists swear by ACTIVATE as a daily essential, energizing their mornings with its invigorating aroma and skin-smoothing benefits. Its gentle, moisturizing cleansing agents ensure a deep yet nourishing cleanse, while our fermentation-based preservation method keeps it microbiome-friendly and suitable for regular use. However, due to its stimulating botanicals, we advise against daily full-body use during pregnancy.

Can ACTIVATE be used as a face mask?

While originally formulated for the body, ACTIVATE is also suitable for the face, making it an excellent option for smoothing texture and clearing pores. When using any exfoliant on delicate facial skin, apply with a gentle touch, avoiding the eye area. If you experience excessive redness or discomfort, discontinue use and adjust frequency as needed for your skin’s tolerance.

Does ACTIVATE help with body acne and acne-prone skin?

Yes! And we have the testimonials to prove it. ACTIVATE works by gently exfoliating, decongesting pores, and balancing oil production to help clear and prevent breakouts. Its activated charcoal acts like a magnet, drawing out impurities and excess oil, while volcanic pumice polishes away dead skin cells to reveal a smoother, clearer complexion. Purifying botanicals help calm inflammation and promote circulation for healthier, more resilient skin. Don’t just take our word for it—read the reviews below to see how it has transformed real skin.

Will ACTIVATE help with Keratosis Pilaris?

Keratosis pilaris occurs when excess keratin clogs hair follicles, leading to rough, bumpy skin. The key to improvement? Consistent, effective exfoliation. ACTIVATE is formulated to smooth and soften uneven, dry skin with finely milled volcanic ash for gentle yet powerful polishing. It’s enriched with Dead Sea minerals to replenish, activated charcoal to purify, knotted kelp to soothe and renew, and vetiver to support regeneration and healing. Time and time again, ACTIVATE has proven to transform rough, congested skin—leaving it clearer, softer, and healthier.
