Quick Facial Gift Certificate

Gentle Detox with Bionic Hydrotherapy
 
Dear Friends,

Got teens? 

* Does your teen have an over production of oil?

* Does your teen appear oily and dry at the same time?

* Does your teen use over-the-counter skin products with ingredients that cannot be pronounced?

* Does your teen do nothing because the sheer thought of skin care is too overwhelming or complicated?

* Does your teen know that bacteria (pimples) live on an alkaline skin surface?

* Does your teen "extract" their own whiteheads or blackheads?

* Do they need a little gentle guidance on how to manage their skin? 

 I can help them.

An aromatic teen facial treatment, some soft skin care advice from someone other than their parents, and an effective and easy organic home skin care routine should put a smile back on their face. 

They can call or even text me @ 206-999-6336 for an appointment.  E
mail Amy@AmySkinCare.com anytime.


Warmly,

Amy

P. S.  If a teen you know would benefit from receiving this newsletter, won't you please take a moment to make them aware?

Healing Gift Tubes

Organic Solutions to Skin Lightening

Many are concerned about the discoloration of their skin caused from acne scarring, hormonal shifts or sun damage.  Many of the over-the-counter and prescription preparations contain hydroquinone. The FDA recently proposed to ban this ingredient in skin-lightening products because it's a suspected carcinogen and may lead to a rare disorder in the skin of people of certain ethnic groups.  Other products contain retinoids that can do more harm than good.  Vitamin C in some products can be problematic for non-Caucasians because the low pH of ascorbic acid can cause an irritation that actually darkens the skin!

Some of the safer ingredients from the earth that can help lighten skin are:

*aloe vera
*alpha lipoic acid
*asafetida juiceStone Crop Serum
*bearberry extract
*nettle
*stone crop
*licorice
*parsley 

Eminence products suggested for lightening and evening skin tone include Stone Crop Serum, Stone Crop Hydrating Gel or Stone Crop Moisturizer, Herbal Spot Serum, Yam & Pumpkin Enzyme Peel, Cucumber Mint Massage Souffle, Parsley Cucumber Treatment and Lime Stimulating Mask.  Some products are better than others for certain skin types, and that's where expert consultation makes all the difference.

Facial experiences with skin lightening benefits include Amy's Parsley Cucumber & Lime Stimulating Masque Treatment featuring a Cucumber Mint Massage and a Stone Crop finale.  To even your skin tone, consider a series of Yam & Pumpkin Enzyme Peels.

What is BioDynamic Farming?

Available Spring 2009

Introducing The New Biodynamic Line!
Certified Organic Products with Certified Biodynamic Ingredients

Eminence Organics is proud to announce that we have gone Biodynamic! This spring, Eminence is once again proving to be a leader in the industry by being among the first in the world with a new collection of organic skin care products with certified biodynamic ingredients. This hypoallergenic and clinically-tested skin care line is created with the finest and most potent ingredients Mother Nature has to offer, while preserving the earth through biodynamic farming and unparalleled green practices. Experience all nine new products available at Amy's Skin Care in Spring 2009!

So what is "Biodynamic" farming?

A certified Biodynamic farm must meet all organic standards, such as the prohibited use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides and synthetic fungicides. The biodynamic approach goes even further, requiring disciplined soil enrichment, labor-intensive fieldwork, constant observation, and ongoing, intuitive awareness. A biodynamic farmer maintains a close connection with the land and develops a self-contained ecosystem, harmonizing the cultivated land with the surrounding environment where, ideally, only farm-produced organic composts and manure amend the soil and pruning, planting, and the applications of special preparations are done with the lunar cycles.

With this earth friendly approach, you can trust that this new collection will be just as friendly for your skin.  The hypoallergenic and clicnically tested Biodynamic collection includes nine new products designed for all skin types, including sensitive skins.
