Beauty From Nature

Let me rave a little about a certain beauty brand. It’s only been a week since I started using it, and I swear, my skin has never felt smoother and healthier. My face looks so pampered. I recently took a peek into my friends’ beauty must-haves. I listened with amusement as three of them raved about Antioxidant Concentrate Serum and Exfoliating Face Wash Cream, both by Alchemilla Organic Skin Care, the way they would over a recent Johnny Depp movie. The trio agree: Alchemilla Organic Skin Care products are truly nature’s prescription for radiant skin! My curiosity piqued, I did a little research about this brand. The brand boasts of non-toxic, truly active organic skin care products that assure of vitalized, youthful-looking complexion. The Antioxidant Concentrate Serum, for instance, which, at $39.00 a bottle is cheaper compared to more popular but highly expensive brands (which is just perfect because I’m not really into exorbitantly priced products) is made from premium plant extracts and vitamins C and E. It boosts the skin’s natural, restorative, anti-aging defenses, and neutralizes age-accelerating free radicals. Alchemilla’s skin care products don’t contain parabens, sulfates, drying alcohol or petro-chemical bi-products that are present in other beauty products. One source of Alchemilla’s magic is a little plant called Lady’s Mantle (alchemilla vulgaris), of the genus Alchemilla, which is considered as a potent healing herb. To ensure optimum quality control, the company grows this wonder plant in its biodynamic herb farm in Oregon, or sourced from local organic suppliers. Medieval alchemists used to collect the dewdrops on the leaves of Alchemilla for use in mystic potions, etc., etc. I’m not really into history, so I won’t go any further than that. My friends’ noticeably glowing complexions were enough to convince me to update my beauty arsenal to include Alchemilla’s Organic Skin Care products. Here's a good option for beauty product enthusiasts who dread using brands that are loaded with chemicals. Take your look to the next level with Alchemilla Organic Skin Care!
