The word “Trivium” defines the place where three roads meet. And in this case, that is exactly what has happened. Three roads meet. Two steps combine them. One result occurs: a beautiful complexion.

It begins with the African Black Soap, an extremely clarifying facial (and body, and hair) cleanser that removes makeup and environmental grime, and draws impurities to the surface of the skin. It is amazing for acne and skin discoloration, as well as eczema and dandruff.

The Raw Sugar Scrub uses organic, Fair Trade sugar as an exfoliant to remove dead skin, and converts itself naturally to glycolic acid (an alphahydroxy acid) to give you a deep exfoliation, as well as adjusts your pH, making your face offensive to free radicals (i.e., pimple and wrinkle causers). Also, highly beneficial oils, kosher vegetable glycerin, and local honey are used to remove the oxidized oils holding the dead skin to your face, and moisturize the new cellular turnover. It is available in several yummy scents.

Raven’s Balm is used to moisturize the freshly prepared palate, and to give your face a breathable moisture barrier of protection. The Facial Trivium is $38.48 at www.savvyboheme.com

Directions: Lather African Black Soap into palm, set soap bar/cube aside. Sprinkle Raw Sugar Scrub into lather and scrub face in circular motion. Rinse. Apply Raven’s Balm to clean skin. Immediately apply makeup or don’t — your call.
