Crows feet, the fine lines etched in the corners of the eyes, known by many men and women as smile lines and laugh lines. These are hard won, many say with some pride. People often love them and hate them simultaneously, as around our eyes is the first place we usually start to “age”.

Are you a person that scans and checks out labels? On Food? But what about in your day to day skin care and body care products? There are so many things that are snuck in and added to our “beauty products” and one of those seemingly harmless products is alcohol. In fact, men have been trained to like alcohol in some of their products like aftershave, as it creates the tight feeling and sting that tannins used to be responsible for. Let us take a few minutes and dive into why one should steer clear of products using alcohol as a cheap filler and preservative.

Silk peptides, also known as silk protein, is slowly but surely making its way onto the main stage of the beauty care scene. This protein is broken down by high powered water beating against the cacoons of silk worms. The end result is a fine grained water soluble powder, chemically unaltered, and a composition very similar to our skin and hair. Though it is still relatively unexplored as a modern “marvel” within the twenty-first century, silk amino have long been known by Chinese practitioners for both internal consumption as well as for beauty.

Below you will find a list of very scary named ingredients that you definitely WANT to find in your beauty and skin care products.

I remember my grandmother’s little opaque square bottle of Witch Hazel that she used for most everything. It would sit on the shelves next to the sink and this was a common item in “reducing heat” in the face or if I got a cut, or to take play make up off with. Each night she would take a cotton ball and dab a bit of Witch Hazel on it and swish it around her face. A one stop beauty regime for those who grew up during the great depression. Here’s the thing, pure steam distilled Witch Hazel IS a very good option for all of the above mentioned uses, however most of what you find stocked on the shelves is distilled using alcohol, or worse hexane, and a residual 14-15% remains in the product. While seeming like a relatively small amount of alcohol, studies have shown that even half of that amount creates damaging effects to the skin, strips the acid mantel which further reduces our skins natural protection and barriers and is highly drying to all dermal layers. What I am saying is; With this product/ingredient, the quality truly matters.

I hope that you like this little snap shot into the last eight years as much as we have enjoyed creating this post! Here’s to another eight years, and the excitement that comes from building something from the ground up. Thank you for walking this road with us, for without YOU, none of this would be possible.
