Rich, natural & organic oils in skin loving & nurturing LuminO face care products [Giveaway USA]

Today we're showcasing a skin care line of products that GoodEarthBeauty.com carries - LuminO. 

The good folks at Good Earth Beauty sent me some delightful all natural Lumino facial care product samples. Many of my readers are already familiar with the Good Earth Beauty Online Store's line of products sourced from natural ingredients of natural botanicals and potent essential oils. Today meet......

LuminO - The World's Best Masque & Cleanser 
LuminO - Chaga Elixir With Rare Botanical Oils

Facial Mask Organic Marine Algae 4.5 Ounce

Now an "at home" treatment previously available only at the most exclusive spas. Aging results in a slower turnover of cells. This causes thinner dull skin with a rough, flaky texture. An exfoliating masque removes the top layer of dead skin. Skin is the largest organ of the body. It is responsible for one-fourth of the body's detoxification. Clogged pores are not just a cosmetic concern. Healthy breathing skin contributes to overall well-being. Superior masques open the pores, removing harmful toxins and debris.

Though there are new and innovative scientific ways to reduce wrinkles and restore vitality to the skin, much of the secret to beautiful skin lies in maintaining a healthy living environment for skin cells. Great on Acne

Made by Lumino - Ingredients: MASQUE: Bentonite clay, diatomaceous earth, French green clay, organic algae of bladderwrack, rockweed, sea lettuce, coconut, jojoba, & castor oils. BOTANICAL OILS: Organic oil of jojoba, wildcrafted oils of kalahari, argan and moringa with essential oil of ylang ylang.

Chaga Elixir With Rare Botanical Oils

Composed of powerful antioxidants and nutrients, these oils and Chaga mushroom elixir are powerful free radical neutralizers. Free radicals cause damage to skin and pave the way for wrinkles. If you have avoided oils in your daily skin routine these non-comedogenic (won't clog pores) oils are the answer. These dry, non-greasy oils are anti-aging phenoms.

Chaga contains melanin, the pigment responsible for darkening skin and protecting the skin from dangerous solar UV rays. Chaga can protect the elasticity and firmness of skin in a way that may delay the formation of wrinkles and fine lines.

The anti-viral compounds in Chaga can help clear blemishes. It also fights inflammation, which helps keep skin healthy, glowing, and prevents aging.

• Jojoba oil from the Sonoran Desert is chemically closest to the seburn oil our skin produces naturally. It is readily absorbed, helping to minimize wrinkles and fine lines.
• Kalahari Desert oil restores elasticity and dissolves old oil buildup, allowing it to wash away. It is rich in omega 6 and 9 essential oils and fatty acids and balances the moisture in the skin.
• Argan oil from Morocco has an abundance ot saponins, which are skin softening agents. It makes the skin more elastic and helps to keep it properly hydrated.
• Native to Mozambique, Marula oil contains an unusually high concentration of antioxidants, nutrients, minerals, and essential fatty acids that protect against environmental damage and boost cellular activity to hydrate and repair the skin.

Made by Lumino - Ingredients: Organic golden jojoba oil (Simmondsia chinensis), Wildcrafted Kalahari Desert oil (Citrullus vulgaris), Organic Argan oil (Argaria spinosa), Organic Marula oil (Sclerocarya birrea), Ylang Ylang Essential oil (Cananga odorata), Chaga Mushroom Elixir (Inonotus obliquus)

LuminO - Good Night Organic Skin Emolient

Facial Moisturizer Organic Restorative Skin Emollient Night Cream - Unscented Version - Lumino

This all-natural emollient is a luxurious blend of nutrient rich organic oils specifically chosen for their capabilities to enhance the skin's restorative cycles. They are most effective when used while sleeping, but will rejuvenate the skin any time of the day. Coconut oil is known for its ability to prevent liver spots from developing and may reduce those that you have had for years. Easily absorbed by the skin due to its small molecular structure. Jojoba oil is chemically closest to the sebum oil the skin produces naturally, making it one of the most permeable oils. It helps minimize wrinkles and other fine lines. Castor bean oil has a long history of impressive skin and body benefits. It stimulates increased lymph flow flushing toxins from the system. An effective treatment for blemishes and acne, skin will look and feel better when it is applied. Apply liberally to warm moist skin. Can be used during the day for those willing to tolerate a bit of shine like the French do.

Unscented Version - contains no ylang ylang. 3.5 oz Made by Lumino - Ingredients: Organic coconut oil, organic golden jojoba oil, organic castor bean oil, pure essential oils of ylang ylang, and natural vitamin E oil. (VEGAN)

LuminO - The World's Best Rare Botanical Oils

LuminO Botanical Oil

This rich emollient is a blend of pure natural oils specifically selected because of their long histories of use by indigenous peoples. For centuries these oils have been an integral part of the skin care for people living in these harsh climates.

Composed of powerful antioxidants and nutrients, every one of these oils are free radical neutralizers. Free radicals cause damage to skin and pave the way for wrinkles. If you have avoided oils in your daily skin routine, these non-comedogenic (won't clog pores) oils are the answer. These "dry, non-greasy oils" are anti-aging marvels.

• Jojoba oil from the Sonoran Desert is the substance chemically closest to the sebum oil the skin produces naturally. It is readily absorbed by the skin, helping to minimize wrinkles and fine lines.
• Kalahari Desert oil restores elasticity and dissolves sebum buildup, allowing the sebum to wash away. It is rich in omega 6 and 9 essential fatty acids and balances the moisture in the skin.
• Argon oil for Morocco has an abundance of saponins, which are skin-softening agents. It makes the skin more elastic and helps to keep it properly hydrated. Excellent on nails.
• Native to the Himalayan Mountains, Moringa oil contains more than 46 antioxidants as well as vitamins A and C. These give it excellent moisturizing, nourishing, and emollient qualities. It balances the secretion of oil and reduces skin fatigue.

This blend of oils can be used day or night. It is important to apply it when your skin is moist.

Though there are new and innovative scientific ways to reduce wrinkles and restore vitality to the skin, much of the secret to beautiful skin simply lies in maintaining a healthy living environment for skin cells.

Made by Lumino - Ingredients: Organic golden jojoba oil (Simmondsia chinensis), Wildcrafted Kalahari Desert oil (Citrullus vulgaris), Organic Argan oil (Argaria spinosa), Organic Marula oil (Sclerocarya birrea), Ylang Ylang Essential oil (Cananga odorata) Secret word: SMILE

What "pumpkin" delight have you had so far this Fall? Pumpkin Latte, pumpkin spice cookie - name your treat! So far I've not had anything in the pumpkin food line but I have been enjoying a Good Earth Beauty Exclusives' Pumpkin Spice Body Cream. The whiffs of this tantalizing aroma are such a delight to me!

Coffee shops and stores are packed with coffees, drinks, cookies, breads, and many other things "pumpkin" and "spice." 'Tis the season of cloves, cinnamon, allspice and other nippy zippy tastes.

And the aromas are intoxicatingly engaging to our senses. Not only our taste buds but our love of being enveloped or wrapped intoxicatingly in these wonderfully sensual scents.

Lotion that feels super good, protects skin, and is all natural - Good Earth Beauty Exclusives Rose Hand Cream [Review & Giveaway]

 It's summer! It's hot! It's muggy! It's delightful!

We love it and our bodies love it because we're more active. We're out getting exercise, breathing more deeply (builds lung power), building muscle strength, and helping our heart. We're soaking in the Vitamin D from the Sun's rays and enjoying that special "glow" we get from sunny days.

We also have some skin hazzards during the summer. Sun exposure dries the skin, toughens the skin, and ultimately degrades the skin. Wind exposure (yes, even those deliciously warm breezes) also dry the skin. 

Good Earth Beauty Exclusives©️ all natural & vegan Lip Balm Made in USA [Review & Giveaway]

There is a saying that "As the days get longer, the cold gets stronger," and we see that is a truism because often we see our coldest most brutal weather in January and February and even to mid-March.

That cold, icy, windy weather wreaks havoc on our skin and especially our lips. They get chapped, rough, split. We need rescue strength help but not necessarily "medical strength."

It's so "berry" good! Lavish Strawberry Hand Cream and Strawberry Lip Balm [Review & Giveaway]

Strawberry Hand Cream (find it here) All #natural & #vegan

As hot, dry, sunny days of summer beam warmth and well-being on us, the wind cools and invigorates, salt or pool water frequently washes over ourselves removing our natural oils, we don't want to forget to apply lotions that smooth, lubricate, and comfort our skin. And the good folks at Good Earth Beauty have just the hand cream (I love it for arms and legs, too) that provides this comfort and lubrication. And they have delightful "flavors" that simply reek of seasonal delights. Thankfully, in today's world fresh berries are available in our supermarkets mostly year round, but still..... isn't it just great to have the luxury of slathering on a bit of "berry"?

..... luscious strawberries with their sweet twang on our tongue and a subtle berry fragrance. We want to capture it and enjoy it longer. And, we can delight in luscious "Strawberry." Yes! 

And while this lotion captures the essence of summer berries, it is not overpowering. It is, however, a fantastic and hard working hand cream that has a silkiness and feel of elegance on your hands.

As with other Good Earth Beauty Exclusives Hand Creams, I highly recommend. Remember, it is #natural and #vegan and rich in wonderful oils and butters that tenderly care for hard working hands.

Why  not tell your hands you love them by lavishing them with this lovely hand cream?

Product information (from Good Earth Beauty): Our lavish, modern hand cream repairs dry skin and cuticles, leaving behind the perfectly elegant scent of Strawberry. To heal cracked skin, you only need a small drop of this cream, which has aloe, macadamia-seed and olive oils, and shea butter. It's deceptively thin for such a hydrating formula, and it leaves hands soft and supple for the entire day. Perfect for holiday gifts or stocking stuffers. 

Free of: parabens, pesticides, petroleum, propylene glycol, phthalates, sulfates, artificial colors.

Made in small batches in the USA by Good Earth Beauty. 4 oz Tube $14.00

Ingredients: Purified Water, Organic Barbadensis Leaf Juice (Aloe), Sunflower Oil, Kosher Vegetable Glycerin, Shea Butter, Jojoba Oil, Mango Butter, Organic, Evening Primrose Oil, Emulsifying Wax, Rose Hip Oil, Chamomile, Grapeseed Oil, Macadamia Nut Oil, Radish Root Ferment (Natural Preservative), Proprietary Blend Of Natural Fragrance Oils.

Strawberry Lip Balm - Natural & Vegan (find it here)

You take care of your hands and your face with lotions and creams. You even tenderly care for your tired feet. You color your lips. But what else do you do for your lips besides color them? Sometimes our lipstick provides softening oils that help care for them. But often not enough for overcoming the harshness of weather extremes.

That takes a powerful yet natural and gentle product. Good Earth Beauty Exclusives' line of lip balms are just that. These Lip Balms have the potential to soften, soothe, beautify our lips and protect them from the harshness that shifts in weather throw our way.

The Strawberry Lip Balm has just a hint luscious strawberry that helps you conjure images of sweetness and delights.

I highly recommend and I encourage you to get one for yourself and several for gifting. (Hint: there are lots of fragrances in these lip balms that all will simply love to have.) Find it here

PANA Soothe 1000 CBD & Arnica Salve - USA MADE PRODUCT [Review & Giveaway]

I am trying a product new to  me. It contains CBD hemp oil and Arnica and lots of essential oils and moisturizers. It's purpose is pain relief. As a member of the senior population, I have a variety of aches and pains and I don't really want to use those super strong opiates to get relief.

My hand has an ongoing on-again, off-again joint/tendon pain at the base of the thumb. Touching it, pressing it, moving it causes discomfort. Sometime to the "pain level" that I avoid using it. I was surprised that the PANA Soothe 1000 CBD Salve provided relief. 

I also have back and leg pain emanating from nerves down the leg. I generously massaged the Pana CBD Salve onto my low back, leg, and even foot. The salve didn't help that time. I think the root of this pain is too deep and complex for a topical application.

Today, I was developing a migraine. I take a special migraine prescription but it wasn't giving the relief I needed and I feared the migraine would go full-blown.  I decided to experiment a bit. I massaged some of the PANA CBD Salve onto my temples and neck pulses. Within a few minutes I felt the pressure and ache in my head was getting less. Now 30 minutes later I have no feeling of a migraine. I am delighted.

Is this a "cure-all"? Absolutely not. But I do believe it has appropriate uses and as a topical is better for one's overall health to use it instead of ingesting pills for pain and discomfort relief.

Check out their website & purchase - click here

Product information: Panacea’s Soothe salve is made from our unique blend of all-natural moisturizers, essential oils and Colorado grown CBD hemp oil formulated for long lasting relief. All-natural moisturizers and essentials oils to bring you soothing, targeted relief of life’s aches and pains. Apply locally to the target area and the high-quality salve will be noticeably effective, yet gentle on the skin. Soothe comes in two strengths; a 1 oz. jar containing 250mg or 1000mg of CBD. You’re going to want to get a subscription of this stuff so you never run out!

Merlot Advanced Fine Lines Cream - A natural skincare antioxidant that is made in USA [Review & Giveaway]

 Since 2001 Merlot Skin Care has developed gentle, good-for-you beauty products, each packed with the sensational power of natural grape seed antioxidants. 

Merlot's newest release:
Advanced Repair Fine Lines Cream.

My skincare includes using serums, moisturizers, oils, eye creams. Sometimes, I indulge in a spritz of Rosewater for refreshment. Today, we're talking fine lines - and specifically the new-to-market Merlot Advance Fine Lines Cream.

Merlot Advanced Repair Fine Lines Cream visibly improves skin by targeting fine lines and dark spots. It’s gentle and hydrating, and like all Merlot's products, made in the USA, with no parabens or animal testing. 

Merlot Advanced Repair Fine Lines Cream 

Merlot Advanced Repair Fine Lines Cream helps to visibly reduce the appearance of fine lines and dark spots. Protects with grape seed antioxidants and Vitamin C. Utilizes a retinoic acid-like peptide, Myristoyl Tripeptide-31, to deliver the benefits of wrinkle-reducing retinol without the side-effects. Helps firm skin and increase luminosity. Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5 helps boost skin’s appearance. Made in USA, 2 fl oz. Retail price:  $17

• Powerful grape seed antioxidants
• Non-oily, absorbs quickly
• Firms skin 
• Amino acids
• Moisturizing Shea Butter

Directions: Apply to the face and neck, targeting fine lines on the forehead and near the mouth and eyes. Smooth into skin until product is absorbed. Can be re-applied throughout the day.

I firmly believe that we should use creams to moisturize our face and we should do this a minimum of once daily. Preferably, twice a day. Depending on the ingredients, the creams act differently to preserve a youthful appearance to skin. The key, however, is to moisturize and to do it regularly.

I am quite pleasantly surprised at the quality of this "purse friendly" (aka-speak for budget friendly) line of skincare products. And the Merlot product line is  vegan, natural, cruelty free.  (If you check the Merlot skincare line website, you'll see that their focus is on the use of grape seed antioxidants in all of their products.)

When I apply my skincare products, I take it also as an opportunity for a "spa massage" focusing on my temples, forehead, jaw line, nasal bridge, between eyes,  crows feet areas, and throat. I apply product with firm, upward rotating massage using my splayed fingers. I thoroughly believe this helps me to relax, relieves tension, and massages the lymph system to aid in drainage. I just feel this is good for me. I even do this more than once a day when I have a headache or a particularly stressful day. And then, of course, it is a skincare treatment as well.

Using the Merlot Advanced Fine Lines Cream is refreshing with a pleasant, light hint of "fresh air" scent, and literally feels good on my skin. Great under makeup or simply for those "go natural" days.

The recommended use is daily on cleansed skin. I am totally enjoying this lovely face cream.

All Merlot Skin Care products are made in the USA (in Texas) and are cruelty-free. Find them at www.merlotskincare.com

ALOE & LAVENDER ANTIOXIDANT FACIAL TONER MIST FOR ALL SKIN TYPES [Review & Giveaway-USA]

Searching the shelves of stores or the internet for skin care products can be a daunting, perplexing experience. You almost never know what the spend your hard-earned money on and fear it will be the wrong product for you.

If you're searching for natural products, you don't know if they are well-done, safe, pure, or will do the job you want - cleanse, protect, and help you avoid those awful signs of aging. So is it give and take, search and seek, hit and miss? Yep! A bit of all of that. However, there is hope.

Spring and Summer hand creams from Good Earth Beauty Exclusives protect, soften, beautify [Review & Giveaway]

We are still battling the Covid-19 Pandemic World wide and part of the battle is the constant and thorough hand washing we're doing to help stem the tidal wave of infections. And it has been helpful. Other efforts to end the pandemic are in place and working. Now, a major rescue effort is called for our hands that have been washed and washed and washed.

I am rather partial to the all natural hand cream from Good Earth Beauty Exclusives. And  they are pure, natural, and vegan. They are soothing, comforting, and enriching when used on my hands. I also like to slather some on my arms, neck and shoulders, and lower legs. 

Belvedere Luxury Soy Candle Set provides soothing ambient aromatherapy to homes [Review & Giveaway]

Enjoy the luxury and ambiance of a softly glowing and lightly fragrant soy candle

The other day it was a particularly gloomy day as far as the weather was concerned and I was experiencing it personally in a droopy, gloomy way because I just didn't feel particularly exuberant. And then the mail arrived and a lovely package of two soy candles.

Well, of course I opened the package the right then and there and lit the Sandlewood and Bergamont candle. I set it on a table nearby and got on with my day. 

Bring the richness of Dead Sea properties to your skin with Pacha's Dead Sea Mud Whipped Soap and Scrub

PACHA SOAP'S DEAD SEA MUD WHIPPED SOAP + EXTRA SCRUB

My thoughts: I have used several of the Pacha Bar Soaps and the Lavender Vanilla Whipped Soap Scrub; and everytime I have been so pleased with the feel of these products on my skin, the lathering capabilities, the scent. Knowing that the Pacha brand is supporting clean health initiatives and "green" products simply adds an extra special dimension of goodness to these products.

Find it on GoodEarthBeauty.com

I am currently using the Dead Sea Mud Whipped Soap and Extra Scrub. While it contains various oils, it does not leave my skin feeling as though it has been rubbed down with oils (you know, that "greasy" feel some products leave on your skin). 

The lathering properties are lovely. The pumice exfoilation is light-grained and effective. My skin feels softened, lightly scented, and clean.

The "flip lid" is great for shower or bath enabling one-hand opening. I am totally enjoying this lovely product.

Product information: Deeply exfoliate and cleanse skin with our Dead Sea Mud Whipped Soap + Extra Scrub. Crafted with natural exfoliants and balancing Dead Sea clay for an intensely rejuvenating scrub.

Bring winter roughened skin back to fabulous softness with Good Earth Beauty Exclusives Soothing Citrus Salt Wash Scrub

Let's face it. Winter really does wreak havoc on our skin. Chapped. Dried out. Cracked. Wrinkled. Our poor hands, arms, feet and legs suffer. And then when warmer days begin to burst through the chill of winter and we begin to bring out our short sleeve tops and shorts that expose our arms and legs, we fully realize that we need help.

I love to stand at the lavatory and run the water nice and warm. I then get a nice glob of this product and begin scrubbing (hand washing) my hands, up my arms, massaging my fingers and the tendons in my hands. This salt scrub works it's way into the skin cleaning, softening, refreshing. The scent is citrusy but it has a hint of lavender as well. 

Look at the ingredients.....

• Exfoliate – salt crystals gently lift dirt, grime and dead skin cells
• Moisturize – herbal infused emollient oils soften and smooth
• Protect – Lipids seal the living biome for dynamic resilience

 

Exfoliate, moisturize and protect with this Natural and gentle salt wash.  This Salt Wash cleanser contains highly effective ingredients that not only help to maintain healthy skin, but also help to actively repair damage to skin. 

Organic Hemp Oil regenerates & energizes the skin’s protective layer. Due to its high concentration of omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids, hemp oil has a composition similar to skin lipids, which makes it an excellent natural emollient and moisturizer. It is especially useful for dry, tired, or dehydrated skin.

 

Ingredients: Salt, Sunflower oil, grapeseed oil, hemp oil, hops flowers, lecithin, vitamin E oil, lavender essential oil, geranium essential oil, lemon essential oil and orange essential oil

Just look at the texture of this salt wash scrub. Rich in oils,
you'll need to stir to blend it each time you open to use.
I highly recommend this lovely product and believe you'll love it!
