Alyssa BourneLemongrass Spa Independent Consultanthttp://www.ourlemongrassspa.com /605Lemongrass Spa brings a variety of natural bath and body treats to women through home parties. These pampering products include;baby care products, soaps, organic shower gel, body polish, lotions, whipped body butter, massage oil, pillow and sheet spray, body spritz, spa gift sets, facial care items and more.The product that made me fall in love with Lemongrass Spa is the body polish. I had never used something that exfoliated so well but was also very moisturizing. Most of our body polishes are sugar based and also include moisturizing ingredients like mango butter, apricot kernel oil, coconut oil and sweet almond oil. Life myself, you may find that you don't even need to apply lotion after showering. This is also a great product to shave with!Lemongrass Spa offers lots of yummy scents to choose from, a few of my favorites include: almond, coconut lime vanilla, mango, berry, dreamsicle, lemongrass...

I love products that contain plants from the ocean so when Lynn Reifert offered to write a post about the company she is an independent consultant for called Ocean Grown Int'l, I was intrigued.OAVE?

J.R. Watkins Natural Personal Care Line is Here!
2008-04-20 18:41:00
So by now you should all know how much I love natural/ organic/ green/ eco-friendly (whatever you want to call them) products. Another thing I also love is the idea owning a small business. But I (like most of you) don’t have the time or money to formulate/ make/ and market a product. There is still hope for us. Many companies now have programs where you can signup to be a representative and sell their products and keep a % (commission) of the sales. I’m not going to go in to many details about how that works but I am going to spotlight this week a few of the companies with natural skincare & bodycare products that have a program like that.The first one I’m going to share is Watkins. The company has been around since 1868 and is primarily know for its natural medical remedies and baking products like its Cinnamon. Watkins now also has a line of natural cleaners for your home and a natural personal care line.My online friend Cindy has this information to share with us.J.R. ...

Beauty from the Earth mineral makeup review w/ pictures!
2008-03-20 00:06:00
I promised so I am delivering. Here is my review of Beauty from the Earth (http://www.beautyfromtheearth.com/ ) mineral makeup, with before and after pictures.Here?s the deal, I can?t stand a cake-y makeup mess on my face, but I have so much redness that I can?t go with out foundation. Years ago I heard about mineral makeup. I decided to try a well know brand and it was ok but my face always felt tight and dry. It took a while for me to get the hang of putting it on but now I feel like a pro. While I do like my well known brand, I like to try other brands in hopes of finding something as good and less expensive. I believe I?ve found that with the Beauty from the Earth mineral makeup.First things first, here are my before pictures. (I took two pictures, one with flash the other without. I did the same w/ the after pictures.) See all the red? I also have a few zits, not a pretty picture.Ooooo, now look at me after. I look like movie star. Ok so maybe not that dramatic, but I look dam...

Brilliant Earth: Conflict Free Diamond Jewelry
2008-03-04 19:44:00
I love jewelry almost as much as I love makeup, so when I saw a banner ad for Brilliant Earth : Conflict Free Diamond Jewelry I knew I had to check it out. I?m very impressed with what I found on their website and I think you will be too.Brilliant Earth uses only conflict free diamonds, not blood diamonds. ?Conflict diamonds, or ?blood diamonds,? are diamonds that are used by militant groups in war-torn nations in Africa to fund civil wars. These diamonds are also often associated with human rights abuses, including child and slave labor. Despite widespread acknowledgement by the diamond industry of the problems associated with these gems, conflict diamonds are still smuggled across African borders and have become indistinguishable from the general supply.Conflict free diamonds are guaranteed to originate from sources that are not associated with these war-torn regions and are mined, cut, and polished in an ethically responsible manner. These diamond sources are audited and carefully...
SOUL PURPOSE: An interesting press release
2008-02-25 20:41:00
I thought this might interest some of you so I'm posting this here. I plan on trying the products when they come out."EXETER, NEW HAMPSHIRE (December 19, 2007) - Nadine Thompson, who rose to national prominence as the co-founder, president and CEO of Warm Spirit-a unique direct sales company-has announced that she will launch a new socially-responsible enterprise entitled SOUL PURPOSE LIFESTYLE COMPANY. The new company will focus on ensuring individual, community, national and global empowerment through the offering of a direct sales business model. Thompson spent 10 years at Warm Spirit, and through her dedication and commitment the company transformed the face of the direct sales and network marketing industry. In an unfortunate and devastating move last August by her former partner, Thompson was pushed out of the company she helped build. But today she finds new purpose-and her new company will redefine empowerment in support of fulfilling individual purpose and vision through t...

Natural & Organic Beauty Samples
2008-02-11 18:26:00
Sometimes I prefer trying a sample or trial size of a beauty product before I buy a full size. It used to be that companies would give out free samples in order to entice you to buy the full size, but now with the internet it has been to easy for people to take advantage of the freebies. So now you are very lucky to find a true free beauty sample, however, you can still find samples and trials sizes if you are willing to pay shipping, buy the sample or get a free sample with purchase of another product. I thought it would be nice to compile a list of natural and organic beauty samples for you.Saffron Rouge carries lines like Dr. Hauschka, NVEY ECO, Weleda and more. They offer 2-5 free samples with your order and they have a club called Inner Circle where you pay $35 for the year and ?once a month, you'll receive a package delivered to your door that contains: 2 or 3 product samples, special money-saving discounts (so you can save on the full-size versions of the products sampled), ...

Easy Tips for Going Green with your Beauty Routine.
2008-02-06 19:50:00
The key point in the Green Movement is to use less of the earth?s resources and to waste less. You know the three R?s, Reduce, Reuse, & Recycle. So how can you use that with your beauty products? Let?s examine the three R?s:1) Reduce: A great way to start reducing is to use up what you already have, by doing that you are buying less product to put in your already large graveyard of beauty products under the sink. (You know what I?m talking about.) (If you really can use up what you have see step 3 for a way to recycle beauty products.)You can also reduce your product consumption by using one product for multiple uses. Like your hair conditioner can double as a shaving cream, night cream can double as an eye cream; try to think of other ways to use the products you have.2) Reuse: Ok this might be a bit tricky with beauty products, but you can find a way to re-use your empty bottle and jars, like use for pill holders, bead holders, ect . If you have any good ideas on reusing beaut...

It?s the end of the week and time to follow up on all the goodies I received.I have yet to buy any of the Organic makeup from Physicians Formula that I talked about on Janurary 9th, however one of my friends did get a tinted moisturizer and pressed powder from the organic line and so far she really likes it! I did put a bit of the tinted moisturizer on the back of my hand and it was a good color match and it felt really nice. It is defiantly on my wishlist.I did buy and receive this week a Hybrid 2 in 1 Color & Shine Lip Gloss in Marigold from Smashbox?s new Green line, Green Room. It?s a nice shiny gloss that is not too sticky and has no major taste or smell to it; I find that a plus, sometimes I get tired of the heavy scented and flavored lip glosses.I also received this week my order from PeaceKeeper Cause-Metics. I bought a Lipstick in ?Paint Me Truthful? and a Nail Polish in ?Paint Me Stunning?. I?m very impressed with both products, the colors are lovely and the lipstick w...

Review: Luv4Country Soaps
2008-01-30 21:49:00
As you know from previous posts that I love handmade bath & body products, I find handmade products to be so much more luxurious and nurturing to my skin. So you can understand how excited I was to get my package from Luv4Country Soaps .This winter has been very harsh on my hands. My cuticles have been cracking and bleeding so when I saw the Nail & Cuticle Balm I was ecstatic! It comes in the cutest little tin with a slide off top, but what?s inside is the real treasure! After applying to my cuticles I felt instant relief. The balm is rich in soothing oils (like almond oil & grapeseed oil), vitamin e, & essential oils.In addition to needing cuticle help my hands have been really dry. I slathered on the London Lemon Curd Lotion. Just as I expected my hands felt unbelievably soft. The scent of fresh lemons with a hint of sweetness transported me away from the dull winter in to a bright sunny lemon grove!I also received a wonderful Silky Lips lip balm and a fabulous Shea...

Update on the EVOO cleansing method.
2008-01-14 18:25:00
True to my post on the 8th I have not used any commercial or unnatural cleansers or moisturizers on my face. I have only been using Extra Virgin Olive Oil as my cleanser and moisturizer. Let me say this- I LOVE EVOO!!!This has been one of the best things I have tried. I like how it?s easy, I only have to use one product and my face is both cleansed and moisturized in one simple step. My face has not felt dry or greasy. I have not noticed any major breakouts, the few I have are hormonal, in fact I should have more zits this time of the month, but I don?t. That?s great!!! I am going to try adding castor oil soon. It?s used to help draw out the impurities. Now I just need to find an empty dropper bottle to put my oil in so I don?t have to keep grabbing the EVOO from the kitchen and running upstairs with it.Tags: EVOO+cleansing+method, OCM

Is that Banana on your face?
2008-01-09 19:18:00
Yep Banana s are not only tasty but they are great for making a soothing, moisturizing facial mask. Bananas have plenty of vitamins and minerals, and are pretty cheap at most grocery stores. I routinely see them on sale for .60 cents to .99 cents a pound. Making the mask is easy. For the most basic mask you can just mash one ripe banana and put it on your face for 10 to 20 minutes. For a more luxurious treatment try adding a bit of honey. Some other add in ideas include, yogurt, a drop of rose oil or sweet almond oil, a teaspoon of wheat germ oil, or a few drops of orange or lemon juice. This is a great mask for the harsh winter weather or any time your face need a bit of moisture.My recourses for information on this topic included:http://www.quirkyjessi.com/2007/ 03/dos-and-donts-of-using-banana-mask.htm lhttp://www.dolenutrition.com/spa_recipes _face_2.aspxhttp://beautyblog.elegantnatu rals.com/2007/03/14/bananamaskfordryskin. aspx Tags Banana+facial+mask, natural+skincare

I will not be washing my face?.

I?m not going to wash my face this week, at least not in the conventional way. Last night I was reading user reviews of facial moisturizers on MakeupAlley.com (I just ran out of my Sensaria Soothing Moisturizer). While I was looking at the higher rated products I found a lot of people had reviewed Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO). I had to check that out, I thought EVOO was for salads and cooking, not your face! As it turns out you can use Extra Virgin Olive Oil for many beauty uses, such as a facial cleanser (more about that in a moment) a facial moisturizer, a skin moisturizer, to soften cuticles, as a hair treatment and even as an eye makeup remover. Like I said I am out of facial moisturizer so I was very interested in that aspect of EVOO. So I put some on my face with a wet wash cloth and came back downstairs to do some more reading.

Clorox to Acquire Burt's Bees?
2008-01-02 07:42:00
This might be old new to some as the press release came out on Oct 31st, 07, but I just saw the press release after I was checking out Clorox ?s new line of Green household cleaner, Green Works. Green is in and it?s no surprise that Clorox would want to jump on the bandwagon and make some green (money) off going green. While I do think the Green Works line is a great idea, I?m sure I will try it out; I just don?t know what I think of Clorox owning Burt ?s Bees . I?m not a big Burt?s Bees fan, but it?s such a pioneer in the natural skincare and cosmetic field it just seems a shame to sell out to the ?big guy?. Here is a part of the Press Release:Beth Springer, Clorox's executive vice president ? Strategy & Growth, who will oversee the business, said, "Burt's Bees is a compelling strategic fit for us, and we believe we can expand on its strong trends over time to build even greater value. Burt's Bees has a highly effective strategy and plan, strong trade practices and organizational c...
