Planet Health, the leading distributor and marketer of premium natural health, skin and hair products, has this week launched Qsilica Paw Paw Rescue Ointment in the UK.

Papaya is rich in vitamin A and has powerful antioxidant properties. Its active ingredient, papain, helps to remove dead skin cells and provide a soothing way to exfoliate as well repair cracked skin.
Qsilica Paw Paw Rescue Ointment comes in 25ml tubes and contains 50mg/g papaya. Other key ingredients include:
- silica – to promote healthy growth of skin and give a rejuvenated and radiant look
- jojoba seed oil – to help balance the skin’s natural oil production
- macadamia nut oil – to help hydrate and protect against moisture loss
- shea butter – to help maintain elasticity and moisture
- olive oil – to help moisturise skin and lips
- grapefruit seed extract – to help boost the body’s collagen levels
- calendula extract – to help heal cracked or broken skin
- sunflower seed oil – to help restore moisture and reduce wrinkle lines
- sweet almond oil – for immediate restoration of moisture
Wholesale price per unit is £4.97 and the RRP is £8.95. Retailers can take advantage of Planet Health's launch offer of twelve units of Qsilica Paw Paw Rescue Ointment plus a free counter unit display for the price of 10 units. The offer represents a saving on the order value of £9.94 and additional sales value of £17.90.
All the Qsilica Skin Care products are infused with colloidal silica to visibly fight the signs of ageing and give that outer glow. Silica, a mineral natural to sand and Quartz, is present in many vegetables and grains and is an important nutrient for the skin. It provides antioxidants and vitamins, which, in turn, produce a natural glow in the skin, promote youthful radiance and maintain elasticity and suppleness.
Only potent natural nutrients and ingredients are used in the Qsilica Skin Care range. Every product is free of chemicals, parabens, sulphates, petroleum and synthetic additives and none are tested on animals.
