Is your skincare routine getting results? 4 Steps to Clean, Healthy and Nourished Skin.

Summer months warrant a special skin care regimen – one that hydrates and keeps your skin clean and grime-free. 

Save when you purchase our beauty regimen for after-sun-care. Our non-comedogenic products combat skin congestion caused from the viscosity of sunscreen and grime which clog pores and creates skin congestion. 

Step 1:  Cleanse    |    Step 2:  Tone    |    Step 3:  Treat    |    Step 4:  Moisturize

Cleansing the skin is always Step 1:  Dry Skin craves hydration and Oily Skin craves balance and clarity. 
Green Tea & Camellia Cleanser removes make-up and cleanses your skin without drying out your natural oils.  Infused with Green Tea, Organic Honeyquat and Lactic Acid, all skin types can enjoy the benefits.  The blend of antioxidants will protect the skin, while vitamins B, C & E will nourish.  The Honeyquat from pure liquid honey with hydrate and bind moisture, while Lactic Acid Lactic brightens, smooths, and evens skin by loosening the bonds between dead skin cells.  Dead Sea Salts, rich in magnesium, boosts the hydration process by strengthening the lipid barrier of the skin.  Apply 1 to 2 pumps onto wet skin, massage in and around the nose, cheeks, forehead and chin.  Continue downward onto the neck and decollete. Rinse and pat dry.

Step 2:  Tone  - Toners shrink pores, restore the skin’s pH balance, refresh and protect the skin.
Toners can help close pores and tighten cell gaps after cleansing.  Willow Bark & Green Tea Toner is formulated to balance, soothe, and clarify the skin.  Willow Bark extract contains salicin (a gentler form of salicylic acid) which treats breakouts and fine lines & wrinkles.  Green Tea is packed with anti-oxidants to remove dirt and bacteria and other pollutants on the skin’s surface.  Spritz generously onto a cotton round and swipe onto clean skin in downward and outward motion.

Step 3.  Treating the skin means giving it that little extra.
This is where we introduce a SCRUB several times per week and SERUM and EYE CREAM daily.  Almond Oil and Walnut Shell Facial Scrub gently removes dead skin and impurities through a gentle physical exfoliation. The botanical blend of finely crushed walnut meal, almond oil, avocado oil, organic Lavender essential oil, organic Rose Geranium essential oil, Grapeseed oil and Vitamin E will leave your skin radiant and hydrated.  Scoop a small amount into the palm of your hands and swirl onto wet skin.  Provide your face with a luxurious experience by massaging in and around the nose, cheeks, forehead, chin, and neck area. This is also a wonderful product to take into the shower and exfoliate your chest to prevent crepey skin. Take your time, allow the benefits of the ingredients to work.  Remove with warm water and a wet face cloth. 
Serums are designed to do the heavy work and penetrate to the deeper layers of the skin! Our Botanical Face Serum does just that.  Packed with pure goodness, your skin instantly feels hydrated, radiant, and nourished.  This blend of Rosehip, Grapes Seed, Jojoba, Evening Primrose, Argan, Sweet Almond, Geranium, Carrot and Sunflower Seed Oils make this product a star-performer.  Add Orange, Geranium, Rose and Patchouli Essential Oils to ignite your senses, as well.  The addition of botanical Hyaluronic Acid provides that boost of surface hydration to help the skin look and feel amazing.  Dispense a healthy amount from the dropper and press into the skin, adding more as needed.  Can be used both morning and night, based on your skin care needs.  Even oily skin, yes, needs oil.  Many times, people with oily skin strip the barrier, so your skin naturally produces more.  Avoid that overproduction by balancing the oils with oil.  The benefits of this serum assist in a multitude of performance, including hydration, reducing dark spots, fine lines & wrinkles, texture, rejuvenation, toning and tightening, reducing breakouts and strengthening the skin barrier.
Eye Cream is a must, starting as soon as you can!  The skin around the eyes is more fragile, more prone to dryness, and quicker to show age and fatigue.  For an eye cream to be effective, it has to both moisturize and fight the signs of aging. Retinol Replenishing Eye Cream hydrates with Argan, Avocado and Sunflower oils and provides the tightening benefit from aloe.  The retinol addresses fine lines, wrinkles, and crows-feet and improves the appearance of enlarged pores, uneven tone, dullness and hyper-pigmentation.  Dispense ½ to one pump onto your ring finger and tap under each eye until absorbed.
Lip Balm provide an occlusive layer on the lip surface to seal in moisture and protect them from external exposure. Dry air, cold temperatures, and wind all have a drying effect on skin by drawing moisture away from the body.  Our Organic Lip Balms come in many delicious flavors, tints and SPF to provide your lips with all-natural moisture and nutrients.  The natural moisturizing and healing ingredients include Organic Beeswax, Organic Candelila wax, Organic Sunflower Oil, Organic Coconut Oil and Organic Aloe Vera and antioxidants in the form of Vitamin E.  Swipe, Smack, Smile!

Think of all that we do to nourish our mind, body and spirit. That constant quest for ‘healthy’.  From scanning what we eat, to ensuring exercise, sound sleep and drinking plenty of water.  Add in a boost of sunshine for Vitamin D, maybe some meditation, a good book and definitely some laughter.  Self-care allows us to take a deep dive inward, but how do we present face-to-face?  Is that smile or look of peace and content showing skin that is also happy, hydrated and nourished?

I’m talking a clean and healthy SKINCARE smile!  Read between the lines, literally. 59 percent of US women now scan their cosmetics for potentially harmful ingredients (Copyright © 2020 AFP-Relaxnews), with nearly 90% of consumers reading food labels (Jan 8, 2020 The NPD Group). we, as consumers, want to know what we are putting on our faces – and we should!

ENRICH Calendula & Citrus Face Cream contains a hydrating assortment of goodness, from Sunflower Seed Oil, Rosehip and Shea Butter to calming and soothing ingredients like Chamomile and Aloe Vera Extract.  Our skin renews itself at night, so adding as much nourishment and hydration is optimal at that time.

With summer in full-swing, sun exposure is shining brightly, and in some cases leading to sunburn. Using a heaping dollop of our ENRICH Face Cream will instantly soothe the burn, reduce the redness and inflammation while locking in moisture.  Thanks to Calendula, Shea Butter, Rosehip and Aloe.

The benefits of Shea Butter come from its chemical makeup. Shea Butter contains:

• Linoleic, palmitic, stearic and oleic fatty acids:  ingredients that balance oils on your skin.
• Vitamins A, E, and F:  antioxidant vitamins that promote circulation and healthy skin cell growth
• Triglycerides:  the fatty part of the Shea nut that nourishes and conditions your skin
• Cetyl esters:  the waxy part of the Shea nut butter that conditions skin and locks in moisture

Add in the benefits of Calendula (antifungal, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties), Rosehip (improves skin texture, promotes skin regeneration) and Aloe (contains antioxidants, enzymes, Vitamins A and C and is highly anti-inflammatory) and you are on your way to soothing that sunburn, calming the redness and reducing the swelling.

If an apple a day will keep the doctor away, imagine what this recipe of natural oils, extracts and vitamins can do for your SKIN! You can buy our nourishing Enrich Moisturizer here!
