Shea Butter Wisdom's 100% Pure Organic, Unrefined, Raw Shea Butter Is So Beneficial


I have learned that shea butter is one of the best ingredients in body and face creams, hair conditioners, and skin treatments. Shea Butter Wisdom's Organic, Raw, Unrefined Shea Butter is very pure, which means nothing is added to it and there is no chemical processing. Shea butter actually contains beneficial vitamins A, D, E, and F which combine to improve the hydration and healing of skin or scalp. I love to use shea butter in many of my "concoctions" to treat the skin, hair, nails and scalp. I have been very successful in using this Shea Butter because it is so pure and preservatives are not needed. One of my favorite recipes is what I call my Whipped Shea Butter Heal recipe, which is:

Prepare the Shea Butter by making sure it is at room temperature. This allows easy whipping. I do not advocate heating shea butter as that can cause graininess and separation.
Measure 4 oz. room temperature shea butter into a small bowl. Mash the shea butter with a fork. Add 2 Tablespoons of a base oil, such as olive oil, argan oil, or fractionated coconut oil. Continue to mash in this oil until the mixture is lightweight. Add 10 to 20 drops of essential oil, such as lemon, peppermint, cinnamon, lavender or even vanilla. For even more impact, you can add the oil from 1-2 vitamin E capsules. After each addition, continue to mash, then whip the butter. Add a pinch of mica pearlescent powder, such as ivory eyeshadow. This gives a pearlescent hue to the finished butter. Continue whipping the butter with the fork until it becomes very light and fluffy. Drop the butter into a container and it is ready to apply to the skin or use with any hair conditioner. This is my favorite body butter and it is great to apply to the legs or arms, especially during winter months when the skin can get dry and flakey. This body butter helps to hydrate, heal, and seal the moisture in the skin. I definitely recommend Shea Butter Wisdom's Organic Shea Butter for all skin, hair, nails and scalp treatment. It will heal, protect and moisturize your body.

Regenepure DR Hair Loss and Scalp Treatment Shampoo Provide Gentle Cleaning and Healing For Your Scalp and Hair


The Regenepure DR Shampoo provides superior cleaning for your hair and treats your scalp to reduce hair loss. This product contains ketoconazole which blocks the production of a growth repressing hormone. There are no sulfates in this product making it gentler to your hair and scalp. The slightly mint-scented formula makes thick, rich suds and once it is rinsed out your hair is immediately softer. Your scalp feels clean, really clean and keeps feeling clean for longer than drugstore brands. I found that my hair had more body and volume than with other products and seemed more manageable. It did seem to reduce my hair loss, which I notice while shampooing and while brushing. Continued use kept my hair looking full and healthy. There are healthy oils, such as Emu Oil and Jojoba Oil that add to the shine of my hair and moisturize my scalp. While your results may not be identical to mine, I do recommend this shampoo to gently clean your hair and scalp while making your hair look it's best.

Cashmere Falls Heavenly Hydration Has Organic Softness Built In


Ingredients: USDA Organic Argan Oil, Distilled Water, Sodium Hyaluronate, Vitamin E, Cyclomethicone, Glycerol Stearate. It comes in a plastic bottle with a pump. The Argan Oil is sourced from Morocco.

The Product: This is designed to increase hydration for hair. Combining the Organic Argan Oil with the Hyaluronic Acid helps hair keep that hydration. I could tell immediately when I used it that it added softness and shine making my hair look and feel much more hydrated. Only a few drops were needed, which I applied to damp hair. I also used it the days between my shampoos to add more control to my hair. It applied easily, starting at the tips of my hair and working towards the roots. It also absorbed quickly, so there was no oily feel or residue. I love that the Argan Oil is organic and that this product does not contain nasty chemicals such as parabens or sulfates. I recommend this product to add hydration and softness to hair right after and between shampoos.

Body Merry Age Defense Super 6 Serum Has Everything You Need for Skin

Ingredients: Organic Herbal Water, Organic Aloe, Vitamin C, Plant Derived Hyaluronic Acid, Witch Hazel, Retinol, Vitamin B3, CoQ10, Carbomer, (2s)-2-Amino-5-guanidinopentanoic Acid, Wheat Germ Oil, Wildcrafted Green Tea, Wildcrafted Propolis, Organic Jojoba Oil, Kosher Vegetable Glycerin, Astaxanthin, Sucrose Stearate, Polyglyceryl-10 Laurate, Lecithin, Vitamin E, Pentylene Glycol, Phospholipids, Polysorbate 20, Potassium Phosphate, Phenoxyethanol, Ethyl Hexyl Glycerin. Product comes in an amber glass bottle with eye dropper. It is made in the USA. It is not tested on animals. The product remains fresh for 12 months after opening.

The Product: The product is a reddish liquid. Only a few drops are needed to cover face, with a few more drops for chin and neck area. It goes on easily and absorbs quickly. It absorbs so well that it can be worn under sunscreen and makeup. The product plumps the skin and hides fine lines and wrinkles. It has a floral fragrance that is not overpowering and would not interfere with other scents. The product hydrates and moisturizes skin. For even more hydration a separate moisturizing cream can be used. With continued use the benefits of hydration, smoothing, soothing, and refining skin appearance and texture also continue. I love combining a number of ingredients into one "Super" serum. There is no need to apply multiple products to get the same effect. This product combines 6 wonderful ingredients that are essential in skin care. I will list and describe each one:
22% Vitamin C - This is an antioxidant that can stimulate the production of collagen and minimizes fine lines and wrinkles.
2.5% Retinol - This increases collagen production, plumps the skin which minimizes fine lines and wrinkles, it also brightens skin and helps to reduce irregular pigmentation.
20% Hyaluronic Acid - This is actually already produced by the body to lubricate joints and to hydrate skin. As we age the natural HA is reduced. HA in this serum helps to moisturize the skin and helps the skin actually retain more moisture.
2.5% Niacinamide (B3) - This vitamin improves skin elasticity. It can reduce the inflammation of the skin reducing redness. Also, it has been found to increase the effectiveness of sunscreen.
2.5% CoQ10 - This is an antioxidant that can neutralize free radicals that can cause damage to the skin.
0.5% Astaxanthin - This antioxidant helps reduce inflammation, protects skin cells and is especially useful under sunscreen.
This combination of 6 active ingredients really left my skin looking great. There are even additional ingredients that benefit the skin such as green tea, glycerin and vitamin E. My skin remains soft and smooth and the skin tone has evened out. While your results may not be identical to mine, I do recommend this product as your "one-stop-shop" for skin care.

Ingredients: Rosa Canina Fruit Oil, Rosa Moschata Seed Oil. This oil comes in an amber glass bottle with no eye dropper. It is made in the USA. It is not tested on animals.

The Product: The wonderful thing about rose hip seed oil is that is a pure refined oil, with no added chemicals, preservatives, fragrances or color. This rose hip seed oil blends across the skin easily. It has a very minimal scent. On application it immediately starts softening and smoothing my skin. It also decreases the appearance of pores, fine lines and wrinkles. One of my favorite qualities about rose hip seed oil is that it really reduces the appearance of small scars. It seems to soften the scarred skin and reduce the redness. Of course it has other benefits. It can reduce the appearance of stretch marks and acne scarring, reduce redness and other skin discoloration, improve sun spots, moisturize nails and cuticles, and a few drops can be added to shampoo and conditioners to help soften hair and make it more manageable. This essential oil can be used full strength or can be added to lotions, creams, serums and hair products. I used it for all these uses and can say that this particular product works well without any other chemicals or strong scents. It even retains it's benefits after cleansing, keeping my skin soft, smooth and dewy. While your results may not be exactly like mine, I do recommend this product to improve skin, nail and hair appearance and texture.

Once absorbed, the pores are significantly minimized, the skin smooths and fine lines and wrinkles are reduced. A second pump will be enough to cover the neck area.

Adeline Hyaluronic Acid Serum Hydrates to Reveal Younger Looking Skin


Ingredients: Deionized Water, Sodium Hyaluronate, Aloe Juice, Phenoxyethanol, Witch Hazel Extract, Vitamin C, Acrylates, MSM, Potassium Sorbate, Vitamin E, Sodium Hydroxide, Vitamin C, Lavender Oil, L-Arginine, Retinyl Palmitate, Cholecalciferol. Product comes in a tall, plastic bottle with a pump. It is made in the USA.

The Product: This serum goes on easily and smoothly. Only a small amount is needed for application. I used this over my whole face and under my jaw. I gently pat it around the eye area and if there is extra, smooth it above brow line and over the small area between the brows which is prone to hold wrinkles. There is a very small, light scent that disappears once absorbed. Once applied the serum is cooling and soothing. Immediately, fine lines are smoothed and skin looks and feels hydrated. Once again, Hyaluronic Acid is the key ingredient to help moisturize and retain moisture in the skin. It is aided in doing this by the MSM. Continued use kept my skin radiant and dewy. It is good to use this twice a day and can be worn under sunscreen and makeup, as it absorbs quickly. While I can't guarantee you will have exactly the same results as I had, I can definitely recommend this to boost the appearance of the thin, delicate skin around the eye area, reduce pores and smooth and soothe skin.

Body Merry Retinol Surge Moisturizer Rehydrates and Revitalizes


Ingredients: Organic Aloe, Organic Sunflower Oil, Palm Oil, Pentylene Glycol, Phospholipids, Retinol, Polysorbate 20, Potassium Phosphate, Vitamin E, Plant Derived Hyaluronic Acid, Glyceryl Stearate, Cetyl Alcohol, Stearic Acid, Kosher Vegetable Glycerin, Organic Jojoba Oil, Wildcrafted Green Tea, Wildcrafted Propolis, Shea Butter, Vitamin B5, Phenoxyethanol, Ethyl Hexyl Glycerin, Xanthan Gum, Citric Acid. It comes in a plastic pump bottle with an added plug to more fully seal it. This protects the contents from environmental contamination and oxidation. The product is made in the USA. It is not tested on animals. The product remains fresh for 12 months after opening.

The Product: This lightweight, creamy lotion spreads easily and absorbs well. Immediately, I could feel a cooling sensation and it started softening my skin as soon as it was applied. It definitely minimized fine lines and wrinkles and appeared to brighten my skin. There was only a slight scent, but it would not interfere with other scents such as perfume. Continued use kept my skin soft and smooth. My skin appeared well hydrated and supple. Even after cleansing, my skin looked great, radiant and younger. The ingredients in this product work together to nourish and rehydrate skin and help the skin retain moisture. It can easily be worn under makeup. There is a suggestion that for persons who have never used a retinol formula before, they should start off with using it every other day. I have used retinol creams before and I know how well they work. I have also used other products from Body Merry and they are always high quality and do what they say. While your results may not be identical to mine, I do recommend this retinol formula to improve the texture and appearance of skin.

You can purchase this item on Amazon.com.

I received the product mentioned above for free to test and review. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Foxbrim's Rosehip Seed Oil Moisturizes and Heals


Ingredients: Certified USDA and EcoCert ICO 100% Organic Rosehip Seed Oil. The product comes in an amber glass bottle with pump. This keeps the product safe from contamination or oxidation. It is recommended to refrigerate the product. It is not tested on animals. It remains fresh for 12 months after opening the container.

The Product: I had heard of rosehip seed oil before, but I had never looked into what it did or even how to use it. Basically, rosehip seed oil contains many essential fatty acids and vitamins. It is an amber colored liquid. It is considered a "dry" oil, it easily absorbs into the skin and does not leave a greasy or tacky residue. It can be used full strength on the skin or mixed into creams, lotions, shampoos or conditioners. It is shown to be an effective moisturizer that penetrates deeply into the skin. It also is helpful to reduce scarring and sun damage. When using the Foxbrim Rosehip Seed Oil, a single pump is enough to cover the face and neck. I used it on my face, neck, hands and hair. It was very easy to lightly pat the oil on and gently smooth it. It did absorb quickly and completely. The scent is very mild and pleasant, reminding me of nuts. I also have some scars on my hands and arms from a very aggressive kitten I had recently adopted. I wanted to see how it would work on those. On my face, it absorbed and began to sooth and smooth my skin. It absorbed so well that I believe it can be used under makeup or multiple times per day. I really loved the softness of my skin after application. The softness remained even after cleansing. It left my skin feeling supple, smooth, and firm, moisturized, yet not greasy. I do have dry skin, so it might be slightly less absorbent for a person with oily skin. I saw that it actually did seem to reduce the fine lines and wrinkles on my face and hands. My face seemed brighter and more dewy than before application. On the "kitten scratches" on my hands, the redness was reduced, as well as the raised area of the scratch. The scratches seemed to heal much faster with less scarring or marking remaining. While your results may not be exactly like mine, I definitely recommend Foxbrim's Rosehip Seed Oil for your skin care. It is wonderful to have an organic product that benefits the skin and has lasting results.
