The EE Spring Agenda: A Royal Spa Treatment

Hey Earth’s Enrichers – Let’s Exfoliate!

Exfoliate

As spring gradually approaches, let’s do some spring-time prep! As we have already mentally prepared ourselves for the new weather, we should also prepare our skin. So break out the organic, all-natural, and healthy skin care products for an in-house royal spa treatment…deluxe!

Speaking of spa treatments, we think Calming Spa Seaweed might be a perfect example of a product to use for a royal spring spa day. Before we get more into why Calming Spa is a perfect example, we have an agenda:

1. Exfoliate
2. Cleanse
3. Moisturize
4. Emerge as Royalty

As we mentioned before, Calming Spa Seaweed is a perfect example (similar to Lavender of the Valley and Lemon Fresh Shea) because it is one of our products that can meet every point on the EE agenda. But, again, we’ll get into that later! Each step on our agenda is important for transforming your winter skin to radiant spring skin.

First things first, exfoliate. Wait, isn’t exfoliating after cleansing? Not exactly– you want to remove the dead skin to effectively rid your body of impurities. After exfoliating with the sugar scrubs, move onto the body bar, which is number 2 on the EE agenda. Using a combination of the bar and your favorite cleansing utensil, lather and lightly scrub your skin. When you exfoliate, you’re removing a dermis or layer of skin to reveal a softer almost new layer of skin. Please be mindful that scrubbing newly exfoliated skin roughly may cause irritation. Although many people prefer to exfoliate in the shower, it can also be done as you take a nice soothing bath.

Before we move on to number 3 on our agenda, there is an optional 2.5 step that we do recommend. Number 2.5 on the agenda is a leisurely soak in bath salts. Hey, exfoliating and cleansing is hard work—you deserve a much needed break. Prepare your tub for a round of soaking. Allow the deliciously warm water to wash over you and the toxins to fade away…relax. Take as long as you’d like—light a candle. Let us know when you’re ready to move on to number 3 on the agenda; we’ll wait.


…are you ready?


Next, shower and rinse the residual salt and impurities from your body. Grab a soft warm towel and lightly dab or gently dry your skin. Remember, this is your new spring skin—it’s almost like a baby’s.

Now number 3 on the agenda is to apply your favorite body balm i.e. moisturize. Watch as the balm brings out your skin’s radiance. Earlier, we used Calming Spa Seaweed as an example of a perfect spa product. The reason why is because we want you to keep the flavor of your spa day consistent. Calming Spa Seaweed, Lavender of the Valley, and Lemon Fresh Shea all have identical body bars, body balms, bath salts, and sugar scrubs. Almost made especially for spa days, right?

Now last but certainly not least, grand number 4 on our agenda. If you would kindly step over to the mirror and say the magic words, Mirror, who is the most radiant of them all?” It’s okay if you whisper back and say you are. ^-^

There, agenda is complete—you have officially finished EE’s version of a royal spa treatment.

We always treat our Earth’s Enrichers the way we want to be treated and a royal spa treatment to get your skin radiant for the spring is definitely what you deserve!

So, now that the sunshine lasts longer and the weather is looking a lot nicer, enjoy some time outside or redecorate and clean—release your creative side! Spring cleaning is for the heart, mind, body, and soul; not just for keeping your environment clean.

Chocolate (Dark) and Anxiety

Dark Chocolate

Hey Earth’s Enrichers 

It’s been a while, Earth Enrichers! How have you been? Well, we’ve been great and we have put together some new and interesting stuff for you. This week’s topic is dedicated to chocolate. Yes, we said it, CHOCOLATE. But not just any kind. We’re going to be discussing something revolutionary about the world’s most loved but underappreciated dark chocolate.

Why do we say dark chocolate is loved but sometimes unappreciated? Well, it has some amazing health benefits but it tends not to be the first choice for a common snack. Most would lean towards dark chocolate’s creamier counterpart milk chocolate, which is, in essence, not all that great for you. Now, dark chocolate on the other hand has some pretty nifty health benefits and uses.

For instance, it is known for being very good for the heart. In fact, in small doses it can lower blood pressure because it can improve the flow of blood in your arteries. With the increase of blood flow through the arteries and heart, it makes it easier for the brain to function. This can help prevent strokes…not to mention that there’s a supply of antioxidants per every deliciously rich bite.

Guys, if you haven’t tried dark chocolate, we’d recommend you give it a whirl. It couldn’t hurt! It might actually be good for you.

The EE 411: Dark Chocolate and Anxiety

There have been studies that show that dark chocolate can help relieve stress and anxiety. You see, it can release serotonin which relieves stress. In some cases, it can also give you that much needed woosah moment. You say you want more proof? As if serotonin is not enough, chocolate is also responsible for being a mood raiser. Theobromine, the stuff in chocolate that dogs are allergic to, is responsible for creating positive vibes. We don’t know about you, but dark chocolate is starting to look even better already.

(To also help relieve stress and anxiety try our Lavender of the Valley USDA Organic Skin Care Collection).
