The Best All Natural Moisturizers

HI Ladies,                                                     

We thought we would share a  testimony of one of our customers. It always fun to hear what others are saying about the products and also introduce a new amazing moisturizer we are carrying.  This stuff rocks! Here are the ingredients:

All Amazing: All Pure: All Natural:

Aloe Vera 30% smoothes and softens skin.  Helps to lock in moisture,
reduce age spots and aid in cell regeneration.  Has little beneficial
effect however, unless added in significant amounts.  For this reason,
aloe vera ranks first in volume among our ingredients.

Emu oil: (18%) Other products made with emu oil actually carry just
1-10% of this amazing ingredient.  It's very similar to human skin oil
and hypoallergenic.  Emu oil carries the other nutrients deep into the
skin where they're most useful.  Rich in vitamins A, E and essential
fatty acids.

Matrixyl 3000:  (10%) Powerful combination of two peptides.  Stimulates
collagen and provides significant reduction in wrinkle depth and volume.

Dermaxyl: (10%) Bio-active lipid agent (ceramide 2) which increases the
water holding capacity of skin .  Keeps skin moist and plump.

Shea butter:  Evens out skin tone and improves elasticity.  Good source
of vitamins A, E and F.

Green tea extract:  Has 20 times the anti-oxidant effect of vitamin E
and well-documented benefits of sun protection.

Jojoba oil:  Helps to balance skin's natural oil production and prevent
breakouts.  Contains copper, zinc and complex vitamins. 

Virgin coconut oil:  Helps to repair skin damage and strengthen tissue.

Castor oil:  Reduces age spots, contains ricinoleic acid which inhibits
many viruses and bacteria (great for acne).  Increases circulation.

A Wonderful, moisturizing product. You will love this stuff.

I am sold on a moisturizer that delivers moisture to the face 

that doesn't feel dry and tight an hour after you apply it 

even in the driest of cold Minnesota winters. Also,natural

 products that have ingredients that are derived from plants,

 herbs etc...not man-made I re-order simply because of the

 fact that I haven't found anything else out there that 

compares to that level of moisturizing I've 

found in these products

Why Facial Toners are a Must!

Using an all natural toner is a must for the appearance and health of your skin. It is much more then a skin conditioner. It is a vital component for your skin care regime. There are actually four basic reasons why we use toner on our skin.

Toners deeply clean our pores and remove all the impurities on our skin. In addition, they re-balance our skin to the proper ph which is of utmost importance. Furthermore, facial toners bring hydration and moisture content to our skin. Last but not least, is the assistance it gives for penetration of other treatments and moisturizers.

A nutrient toner deeply cleans our pores and removes all the impurities associated with day to day living. Removing the last traces of make up is vital for beautiful, younger looking skin. It also helps to remove dead skin cells, which cause our face to look dull and rough. If the debris is not removed, you are only forcing it deeper into your pores as you apply your facial treatments and moisturizers on top, trapping the debris that can cause bumps, blackheads, enlarged pores, and rough texture. We’ve heard that we can close our pores, but that is a myth. Pores cannot be closed, but they can appear smaller with proper cleansing, toning, etc…If you have congested pores, give a toner a try. Stay away from alcohol based toners as they will cause more damage to your skin then benefits. Stay with a nutrient rich toner the will aid in the healing and beauty of your skin. Give toner a try and see the difference in the appearance of your pores.

The toner we carry at Nature’s Genesis is alcohol free and contains nurturing plant extracts to maintain healthy balance within the skin. MSM is one of the top ingredients in our toner, which is necessary for the production of collagen. The 100% all natural ingredients are non-drying because they are formulated with the finest botanical extracts. In fact our toner adds moisture rather than taking it out.

Make it a Beautiful Day,

Are Your Facial Products Safe? You Might Want To Check!

Parabens are found in most moisturizers and facial products,  shampoos and even in toothpaste. Look on the back of your bottles and you will be shocked at the ingredients they use.  Parabens are known to be a skin irritant to even those with “normal” skin. Commom parabens that you may find listed on some of your facial products are: methylparaben, propylparaben, ethylparaben and butylparaben. There are others parabens that are used, also, just look for ingredients that end in “paraben.” You will be amazed!

Although using just one product with parabens may not harm you, think about everything else you put on your body!  As you can imagine, the use of parabens chalk up quite quickly.  Whether you want to avoid parabens for health reasons or simply because the harsh chemicals irritate your skin, there are more and more products available out there for you to choose from. Right here at Nature’s Genesis you have options since we don’t allow a product to be featured if it contains parabens.

There are other alternatives that cosmetic companies could use for the perservative in their skin care products and cosmetics, but their opting for the cheaper route. Sadly enough, parabens are quite cheap to use.  Thankfully, there are more and more  consumers out there who are demanding safer, healthier alternatives, and more companies are responding to that call. You will find “paraben free” on more labels then ever before. As time goes on, there will be even more of a demand for safe, healthy,  all natural skin care products.

Next week we’ll continue along in this same vein. You won’t want to miss this.

Have a wonderful week,

Are Your Facial Products Safe?

Have you ever wondered what perserves your facial products? Why do they have such a long…….shelf life? Have you ever wondered about  the ingredient named “paraben?  Parabens are a preservative  added to prevent bacterial growth and increase the shelf life of a product, which means the company can keep the same product around for a longer length of time. As we all know this saves time, but ultimately  it saves MONEY.  Parabens have been a concern in the natural beauty industry for quite sometime. As you will, the concerns are legitimate.

Parabens may affect the male reproductive system and have been known to mimic estrogen hormones in the body. One scientific study reports that parabens were found in samples of breast tumors.  Their analysis of 20 breast tumors found high concentrations of parabens in 18 samples. Another study showed evidence of parabens in 100 adults that were tested.  There is no scientific data that proves  parabens contributed to the tumors. All the same though, it does make you think. Many people are conviced it is safer all the way around to go Natural! I agree!

We here at Nature’s Genesis Skin Therapy do not sell any products that carry parabens of any sort, so you are safe here:)

I’m going to write more on this next week. If you have time,  it would be interesting to look at all your products and see if the ingredient paraben is listed. I’m sure it is.

Until next time,

What You Don’t Know Can Hurt You! Part 2

The animal rendering plant (recycling plant)  pays the area farmers for their dead animals that die either from natural causes or diseases.  This plant uses many different kinds of animals in their operation cows, horses, lamas and pigs to name a few.  On this episode, cows were the main focus.  Some were bloated because they had lain dead for up to four days. So, you can imagine how they looked, how they stunk, and how they….  you get the picture. The process was horrendous. First, they stripped the hide off the bloated animals to be used for leather items. Next, they took everything else, Blood, guts, eye balls, hoofs, ears, intestines (with everything in there), you name it, and threw it into a grinder where everything was ground up. Some of these bovine were diseased. Needless to say, the sight was not pretty to look at. Subsequently, they cooked the animals until the fat/oil rose to the top. When the fat/oil cooled, they skimmed the fat off to  sell to the manufacturers to use in their cosmetics, skin care, and soaps that are distributed around the country. These are products  that ladies, men, and children are applying to their faces and bodies. I’m amazed that the FDA doesn’t have better regulations regarding the cosmetic industry, but they don’t. Cosmetic regulations are one of the lowest in the industry.

Ladies, we need to do our homework. Do you want to apply cosmetic and skin care products to your skin that are riddled with potential disease? Do you desire to use cosmetic and skin care products with these kind of harmful ingredients? I don’t think so! As you all know, our skin is the largest organ in our body. What is applied on the outside seeps into the inside.  Hopefully, this brief little article made us all more aware of the importance of using All Natural Skin Care products. We here at Nature’s Genesis only use the purest ingredients that have the finest quality. The bottom line is, our products do not cost anymore than your average retail outlet. Yet, they  host the best ingredients possible for your health, beauty, and welfare. Why not give us a try? You have nothing to lose but wrinkles!
