Dry Skin / Dermatitis / Psoriasis / Eczema

Almost every item in the drug store purportedly good for skin issues contains a high amount of water (which doesn’t do anything particularly good for dry skin or rashes) and chemicals like alcohol (extremely drying and counterproductive) and hydrogen peroxide (cell-killer). Some of the chemicals in lotions and balms on the market today are known by dermatologists to actually cause dermatitis. So why put them in? I can only guess they make the products look and feel pretty; or maybe they just stretch the manufacturer’s profits. Don’t keep suffering with ineffective products and don’t give up. Natural plant oils will change your life.

Skin replenishing, this fine plant combination works against the formation of lines and wrinkles. A great choice for men and women of any age, as it feeds and protects skin and is excellent therapy for those whose lifestyle keeps them outdoors frequently or who have dry or combination skin. This wonderful healing all-plant product is a non-greasy moisturizer. It absorbs quickly and completely, so those who wear makeup can continue to do so without experiencing any streaking. We call this product “anti-wrinkle” because its antioxidant properties (including natural Vitamin C) prevent new lines from occurring and fight against sun damage. The combination of these regenerative, restorative and antibacterial essential oils gives skin a moist, dewy younger look immediately. Just one drop of this oil is all that’s needed to completely cover your face. The main ingredient, Apricot kernel oil, is highly recommended for sensitive, weathered, flushed, inflamed and/or prematurely aged skin. Helps protect against sun damage and collagen breakdown. Don’t keep repeating the cycle of applying moisturizers that contain alcohol and chemicals which undo any good the other ingredients might do for you or worse cause rebound wrinkles, reddening and even burning. Feed your skin with the same vitamins that are recommended as a part of your healthy diet. Contains Apricot kernel oil, Rosehip seed oil, and essential oils of Lavender, Geranium (Pelargonium graveolens), Carrot seed, Frankincense, Myrrh, and Wheat germ oil.

Special Moments

As women begin the middle years of their lives one very private skin problem affects many: vaginal dryness. But it’s often not discussed, and when it is mentioned to doctors they generally offer estrogen creams or oral hormones, which can have unwanted side effects. Not only is vaginal dryness uncomfortable, but it can contribute to a cycle of itching, redness, soreness, and even bladder and yeast infections. And it makes romantic evenings painful. Advertising today offers sticky, often unpleasant moisturizers that are promoted as making intimacy more pleasurable. Certainly for women who suffer from vaginal dryness, “pleasurable” is not the word I would use. Furthermore, vaginal dryness isn't just something bothersome during intercourse; it is a persistent, sometimes medical, problem. Skin is skin, and when our own bodies seem to be turning against us, we need to moisturize and repair even in our most private areas. Special Moments is a blend of gentle plant oils that lubricate as well as help rejuvenate skin tissue (Evening primrose and Rosehip seed oils which are gentle, moisturizing and healing with Rose Absolute which is anti-inflammatory, cooling and soothing) and therefore, used over time, can not only provide immediate relief but improve vaginal skin over time. Contains Evening primrose, Rosehip seed, Olive, Coconut oil, Shea butter, Beeswax and rose absolute. Quarter pound.
