The Organic Facial Spa Ritual.

A step by step guide on how to give yourself or someone else an organic facial.



Step 1: Cleanse


You will need: • 2 x cleansing cloths or cleansing pads

• A bowl of warm water (ceramic or glass)

• Cleanser (balancing, rejuvenating, purifying or soothing)

Gently press the face with a warm (never hot), soft cleansing cloth to open pores and soften the surface of the skin cells. Apply one or two pumps of cleanser to the palm of your hand and massage gently into the face and neck.

Remove gently with water and cotton pads. If wearing

make-up, a second cleanse is necessary. (First one to remove makeup, the second to cleanse the skin). (180 applications per bottle @ 3 pumps per application)

Cleansing removes the top layer of dead cells, oil, perspiration and pollution. If your skin is not cleansed properly it becomes dull and flaky and the oil glands block up with dirt and cellular waste, causing breakouts and congestion.

Supplements Enhance Health.

New Studies Confirm Supplements Enhance Health
By Dr. Allen S. Josephs

I get so tired of responding to vitamin naysayers. The latest one is Dr. Eric Rimm, Associate Professor of Epidemiology and Nutrition at Harvard. He reportedly told ABC television that dietary supplements will not provide the nutritional boost a poor diet requires. He does correctly state that a change in diet and lifestyle will improve health, although adds that "fundamentally unhealthy people seeking dietary remedial actions through supplementation are wasting their time". He also adds, "Indeed, dietary supplements used in this way may provide little more than expensive urine."

Obviously, optimizing your diet and exercise plans is a great way to impenquin exercisingprove your health. Even so, I take issue with Dr. Rimm uniformly slamming nutritional supplementation. Dr. Michael Holick who wrote a wonderful review article1 on vitamin D deficiency last year in The New England Journal of Medicine, noted that 40% of Americans are vitamin D deficient. It is clear that the nutritional value of our food has diminished over the last few decades.

Beautiful Cheeks With Miessence Blush.

(Product Review) By Aria Milan, Skin Care & Body Care Editor

The act of blushing is associated with the glow of being in love and has always been considered an alluring quality. Throughout the ages, women have applied color to their cheeks to capture the beauty of the blushing effect. The perfect shade of blush is a prize find. The right color for cheeks can mean the difference between a healthy, youthful glow and a sick pallor.

Finding "just the right color" can be a challenge in and of itself, but narrowing the search to include finding the right blush in an all natural cosmetic can be a frustrating endeavor. Most cosmetics on the market are awash with harmful chemical additives. One could deduce that these chemical additives play a key role in the texture and "feel" of the cosmetic.

What Makes A Product Organic?

The word "organic" has been thrown around a lot lately, but what does it mean? Are some things considered organic while others are not? Who decides what is organic and what is not? Do any of these things really matter when it comes to your skin? The answer is “yes” -all of these things matter when it comes to finding the right health and beauty products for your skin.

Why does organic matter? Since your skin will absorb any product that you put on it, it makes a lot of sense to consider the ingredients inside of any beauty product. In order for a product to be labelled “organic,” it must pass strict standards. Each country has a specific set of organic standards that all products must adhere to, though most countries have the same basic guidelines.

Essentially, an organic product must be safe enough to consume even if you don’t intend to consume it at all. Why? Well, just think about it – if you wouldn’t put a product in your mouth, why would you put it on your skin? Many people don’t think about what their skin absorbs when they purchase various beauty products. However, you should think long and hard about the products that you are purchasing.

For the most part, you won’t find any type of strange ingredient listed on the back of an organic beauty product. What you will find are ingredients that you are familiar with. Most of the time, these ingredients consists of things that you have consumed at one time or another. Still, there are some products out there that claim to be organic…even when they are not.

Organic Beauty & Skin Care Products.


Proudly Introducing

Organic Beauty & Skin Care Products

The world's first Certified Organic skin care, hair care,
personal care, health care and cosmetic products

Certified organic beauty and skin care products become a reality in our lives because we want to apply the same principle to our skin care products as we do to our eating habits and if you belong to the school of thought of "you are what you eat" then it's very important to be sure that whatever we put on our skin is clean, non-toxic and good for the earth.


Studies have proven, time and time again, that nothing you apply on your skin stays on the surface unless you immediately rinse it off. This giant sponge is able to absorb anything you put on it. Within 10-15 minutes a product will be completely absorbed into your skin, it is inside your body, which means underneath your skin.


By this time, you can't wash it off anymore.

This also means that if you apply cosmetics, lotions, perfumes, make-ups on daily basis they will be absorbed and this way you are feeding your skin with whatever that product is. In other words, if you wouldn't eat it, you shouldn't put it on your skin!


Your skin is a living organ, as so many others in your body. Since the skin can be a mirror for what is going on in the body, the chemicals may once again show up on the skin. It also means that the liver has to work harder to process them.


Don't you think it's wise to use organic skin care products if you eat organic foods unless you want to sabotage what you want to achieve?
