TEWÍN’XW (too-ay-nooh) is one of the Squamish words for berry.

This dual-purpose cleansing clay is a fragrant blend of kaolin, Moroccan and French pink clays, powdered rose petals, chamomile, cranberry, and rosehips. As a gentle daily exfoliant, it helps refine and restore skin texture. Left on longer as a mask treatment, the clays work to lift impurities, cleansing deeply to reveal brighter, softer skin.

Ingredients: Kaolin (White Clay)*, Moroccan Clay (Rhassoul)*, French Pink Clay*, Rosa sp. (Rose) Flower Powder*, Chamaemelum nobile (Chamomile) Flower Powder*, Rosa sp (Rosehip) Powder*, Vaccinium macrocarpon (cranberry) Powder*, Althaea Officinalis (Marshmallow) Root Powder

Instructions: Shake a small amount onto the palm of your hand or into a bowl, add enough water to make a paste and gently massage onto face. Rinse thoroughly with warm water. Can be left on for 10-15 minutes as a face mask treatment for deeper cleansing.

About the Brand

Before there was a conversation about clean, green and natural skincare, there were communities of Indigenous womxn who cultivated and foraged for plants in the forests and meadows to use as food and medicine. Instructed by cultural teachings, they identified the plants that, when blended together, could unlock health and healing.

Today, Sḵwálwen (skwall-win) is an Indigenous skincare line that honors Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish) plant knowledge and ancestral traditions by using sustainably harvested and sourced organic plants to balance, renew, repair, strengthen, hydrate and protect the skin. Sḵwálwen is the Squamish word for heart. Each product has a Squamish name to honor the place where this plant knowledge comes from.
