Still not reading those labels?  Consider this…. Chemicals found in most underarm deodorants have been detected in breast cancer tumors, according to a British study.  More than 90 percent of cosmetics and some deodorants contain chemical preservatives called parabens or hydroxybenzoic acids.  British researchers found parabens in 18 of 20 breast tumors, proving for the first time, they can accumulate in the body.  Parabens have been shown to mimic the action of the female hormone estrogen, and estrogen can drive the growth of human breast tumors.  Parabens are found in thousands of cosmetic and health and beauty items, and even foods. 

Be cognizant about what you are putting on and into your body.  Choose your products from companies that refuse to put your health at risk.  Supernatural Botanicals  is committed to an all-natural approach to skincare.  From our point of view, it is unconscionable to create products that could potentially put your health at risk.  That’s why our motto is, Eco-Chic, Green, and All-Natural.  There are enough things to worry about in life….and Supernatural Botanicals gives you one less reason to worry. 

In an economic time when most magazines are packing their bags and calling it a day, Organic Beauty magazine comes along.  Organic Beauty magazine is a new, eco-conscious magazine not exclusively focused on beauty products.  Organic Beauty is, in many ways, a complete lifestyle magazine, well-rounded with articles on style, health, fitness, parenting and business—but always with its lens on beauty.  I love the idea of an eco-chic magazine!  It’s truly the wave of the future, so get in touch, get in tune, and find out what eco-friendly is all about.  Organic Beauty is on newsstands now.

We are creating a new Ingredients Page at Supernatural Botanicals with a detailed glossary and terms section where you can find pictures and descriptions of the ingredients we use in our Eco-Chic, Green, All-Natural products.  This is a work in progress; we will continue to add to this list and provide you information about the ingredients in our products.  Visit us now.

In 2008, the beauty industry transitioned its focus to eco-friendly, all-natural products, but in 2009, the focus is reaching beyond all-natural/eco-friendly products into the realm of all-natural ingredients that are specifically beneficial to the skin.  One of the standouts amongst all-natural skincare ingredients is blueberries. 

Beauty Trend Watch says:  Blueberries are chock full of amino acids, vitamins, antioxidants and essential fatty acids, and blueberries are another super food that will be used to fight aging in beauty products. Also known as a “super fruit,” blueberries have long been known for its ability to revitalize the skin.  It’s only a matter of time until we see eco-conscious retailers using these ingredients.

We’ve had you covered all along!  Our Mixed Berry Ultra Exfoliating Spa Soap is loaded with blueberry and strawberry seeds, providing your skin with a mini-microdermabrasion to exfoliate lifeless and dull skin, while creating beautiful, soft, sexy skin.  Ultra-conditioning, ultra-beneficial.

So I’ve decided to have a neighborhood holiday block party at my house this year.  I’m not sure my neighbors are overtly eco-friendly, so I’m thinking a little green exposure won’t hurt them.   When you know better, you do better, right?  So my plan is to inadvertently expose them to an eco-friendly party and show them how fantastic going green can be.  Want to green up your holiday?  Incorporate a few of these suggestions into your party

  How cool is this?  Organic Vodka for your holiday party.  How absolutely fabulous can that be?  Square One Vodka is eco-chic, and is the first 100% organic American Rye Vodka.  Also a perfect hostess gift for a green-ling. 

   Keep it organic with your appetizers.   What could be better than a bounty of organic vegetables? ….a bounty of organic veggies with a big bowl of organic Ranch dressing, that’s what could be better!   

   This is a really important step to a great party…ambiance!   It’s often overlooked which is sad, because it’s absolutely key in the overall feeling of the party.  Throw those light switches on dimmers, and set the mood.  You’ll be creating the right ambiance while saving on your lighting bill.   Who knew green could be so sexy? 

  So you’ve dimmed the lights, now lets make it glow!  Soy candles are beautiful, and you’ll be sure to get compliments.  Perfect platform for green-telling stories.  Candles give perfect ambiance to the room and help you to turn the electricity down.  Another perfect green-ling hostess gift. 

   Gifts to the guests.   It’s always nice sending your friends out the door with a token of your appreciation.  Supernatural Botanicals All-Natural Body Butters will be a perfect eco-friendly parting gift to my guests.   Both women and men love these butters and they smell simply sensational!  Other considerations are bags of organic granola (you can find great bags for these at craft stores everywhere.) 

The idea is to shift the focus to greener living.  It’s a great holiday theme, a great conversation starter, and guilt-free partying!
