Why Choose Natural Beauty
I want you to think about something…..
Think about a sweet newborn baby for a moment.
Now, consider this:
Most infants are slathered from day one with toxic products. And most people don’t know they’re dangerous…. And the years go by.
Now we have teenagers and adults with decades of toxic product use…. Have you ever wondered where all these auto-immune diseases and hormone issues that the medical community can’t explain might be coming from? Or why more and more men are experiencing breast cancer? Or perhaps why little girls are starting their puberty earlier and earlier now?
It’s not difficult to realize years of toxic product use and environmental pollution (room fragrances, laundry detergents, cleaners, etc.) are directly connected to the steep decline in the health of people in developed countries.
Your skin is one of the best indicators of overall health in your body.
In fact, liver health and other body system health levels can often be determined, at least in part, by the appearance and the health condition of your skin. Every single thing you eat, drink, and put on your body affects your health…positively or negatively. Certain skin issues, in fact, point directly at an unhealthy liver.
My friend! You NEED your liver!
When I finally realized how toxic commercial products are and that I could actually make most of my own products using the plants God has gifted to us, and that they actually work BETTER than the toxic synthetic chemicals created in a lab (often from petrochemical waste), I was so thrilled. I dove into my skincare studies, began formulating products for myself and others, and have shared literally hundreds of recipes for various skin conditions, which you can find on my website and YouTube channel.
But sometimes, we just can’t make ALL the things….Or we just don’t want to!
The solution is to find a natural-as-possible skincare company, and I’ve finally found one I love!
Introducing: LEMONGRASS SPA
It’s a company I could actually (finally) get behind. I’ve tried their products, I’ve read their labels, I’ve searched the Environmental Working Group for any kind of anything that’s out of bounds of the “natural” that I’ll accept….and they’ve passed every single test.
No animal testing and cruelty free. Natural ingredients. Organic if possible. Plant-based. Essential oils instead of chemicals…..
In addition, even hard to make natural products (like mascara) they’ve managed to excel at.
Here are some of my favorite products, and if you’re an “older” lady like me, I think you’ll appreciate many of these:
I am VERY picky about the mascara I use on my eyes. In fact, there used to be only two brands I’d use, and these cost a LOT of money (over $30). I’m kind of ashamed of this, but the reality is that like it or not, my eyelashes are thin and blond. They are long….luckily. But they have absolutely no substance. Hence….mascara.
But I’ve NEVER once found a mascara with natural ingredients that worked for me. Never. Not once.
Until now.
Lemongrass Spa has an organic mascara that is GOOD for your lashes, while actually working. I love it.
This stuff is amazing. This would take the place of any kind of toner you use. Toning your skin after cleansing helps your skin rebalance its pH level, tightens the skin, and prepares it for moisturization and then makeup. Usually I use a simple rose hydrosol, and this has been great.
Until I tried Lemongrass Spa’s Rose Mist. This mist contains rose hydrosol….and it also contains willow bark extract. If you’re familiar with willow bark extract (as an herbalist, I sure am), then you know that the salicin, which is a chemical in this plant, is not only great for pain relief but is extremely useful for aging skin. BOOM.
It’s a perfect combination!
This lightweight serum hydrates and brightens. ‘Nuff said.
When I first saw this gel, I couldn’t believe that it could be so effective. After all, I was used to the heavy creams that comprise most eye treatments.
This gel is lightweight, and it works. It tightens and tones the under eye area, and is perfect by itself or layered with a moisturizer.
AND….I love the Overnight Ultra Lift too. My skin is definitely feeling firmer after a couple of week’s consistent use!
I’m loving the liquid foundation! It glides on smoothly, and it feels amazing…besides looking great all day long. I know that “older ladies” are often told not to wear foundation because it sinks into your wrinkles….but let me tell you: This foundation doesn’t do this! And it smells great!
OK….This lotion can be used all over the body, but for your legs and feet, it’s especially helpful. It contains lavender and magnesium oil. This combination has been proven to soothe, calm, and help improve sleep, too. I love it, and I use it almost every night!
There’s a full line of makeup, sets of all kinds, anti-aging products, and so much more!
