USDA Organic Lip Balms

USDA Organic Lip Balms are a must have as the fall and winter weather quickly approaches. When the weather dries and the body starts to become thirsty or slightly dehydrated, the lips can start to become chapped and dry. It is important to stay hydrated and moisturize your skin, including having an USDA Organic lip balm and practicing healthy lip care.

We at EE narrowed down two main ingredients that we use in our USDA Organic lip balm that are sure to provide your lips with the nourishment they need. These ingredients are coconut oil and shea butter, which are well known for providing protection for your skin.

Coconut oil is a moisturizer that does more than hydrate your skin; it helps repair dry and damaged skin. Peeling, flaking, or rashes can be healed with regular usage. When lips are dry, they tend to peel and flake, which can cause pain or discomfort.

Coconut oil works great on other parts of your skin, so why not put it on your lips? It would leave them smooth and protect them from any sun damage as well—another grand benefit of coconut oil!

Shea butter and coconut oil are the perfect match when it comes to creating a fusion base for a lip balm. Shea butter is a natural moisturizer and it is great for soothing the skin, after the coconut oil regenerates and heals the skin, the shea butter maintains your lips silkiness and nourishes them. Also, just like coconut oil, shea butter can protect against aggressions like wind, cold, and sun making them a great team when it comes to lip care.

The EE 411:

Please welcome Lemongrass Mint, Honey Vanilla, Coconut Chai and Naturally Nude USDA Organic lip balms. These lip balms have the coconut oil and shea butter fusion base. However, there are some other awesome ingredients in these lip balms that are dedicated to healthy lip care.

In Lemongrass Mint, we added lemongrass and peppermint. Peppermint helps nourish your skin, while lemongrass helps ward off skin infections or fungus, which is great protection to have for your lips. Just think, how many times do your fingers, writing utensils, or other foreign things touch your lips?

Honey Vanilla is made with vanilla and honey. Not only does it produce a great aroma, but these ingredients are also great for your skin. Vanilla can help reduce stress and prevents the damaging of skin cells. It also helps improve skin tones. It can boost your lips’ natural color. Then honey swoops in with the protection. It helps protect your skin from harmful sun rays and also helps hydrate your lips.

Coconut Chai has a sizzling cinnamon flavor. Cinnamon helps bring various nutrients to the surfaces of your skin. Not to mention, it has an invigorating fragrance.

Last but certainly not least, Natural Nude takes you back to the basics while giving you everything you need. This unscented and unflavored organic lip balm is great for sensitive lips. It will leave your lips soft, supple and moisturized.

Cinnamon Sensation

Hey Earth’s Enrichers

The winter holidays are drawing near along with the wonderful decadence of pumpkin spice and, you guessed it, cinnamon! It’s like the scent of energy and nostalgia. Not only does it make a great aroma but it’s used to spice up the best desserts– apple pie, pumpkin pie, hot chocolate– you get the picture, right? But it’s more than just a fine scent and magical taste, it is also a spice that is good for your skin!

Take it from us, we know how it sounds when we say that a spice is good for your skin. We can hear you now, “I’m not a dessert!” But Cinnamon-bun, grated or in essential oils, cinnamon can bring out the best in your skin and banish the worst. For instance, cinnamon can dry acne and relieve an itchy scalp. No lie!

This is totally legit– cinnamon can treat eczema, exfoliate, and cleanse the scalp. Not bad for a spice that’s known for the holidays and apple pie. Following the premise of most spices, cinnamon is utilized to prevent bacteria from growing on food, so naturally it would be pretty good at being an antiseptic for your skin.

For those of you who are not so fond of cinnamon, we hoped we changed your mind. Cinnamon can exfoliate, alleviate, soften, and cleanse your skin– it seems like a win/win, if you ask us. As always, remember, know your skin. If you’re allergic to cinnamon, then perhaps try other natural means of keeping your skin healthy. If you don’t know if you’re allergic, please consult a professional– doing your own research reaps the best results.

The EE 411: Cinnamon – Chai La Tea

Since we’ve boosted cinnamon’s self-esteem, we bet you can see why we had to use it in our Chai La Tea bar soap. Cinnamon can bring out the best in your skin. Not to mention, cinnamon is one of the key ingredients used to make a better skin care product that helps protect and look after your skin! While you bathe with our Chai La Tea soap, take comfort in knowing that this bar is working to relieve your body of dead skin and is fighting bacteria.

Oh, and we almost forgot about our Coconut Chai lip balm! Here’s a really special perk about cinnamon– it can make your skin lush and plump. Need we say more?

Organic Soap – Lemongrass Limelight

Hey Earth’s Enrichers

Well Earth’s Enrichers, we are nearing the middle of the summer. We have gotten past the strange cold fronts, the nearly vacant spring, and now everything is starting to find its balance. The birds are chirping, the sun is blazing, the humidity is rising, and the mosquitoes are among us. Yep, we said it, the pest above all pests. Not only are they hard to see and have an irritating buzz, but they also leave you with an unpleasant reminder of their visits.

Well, we have a surprise for you! Did you know lemongrass is a natural mosquito repellent? No, seriously! The fresh smell of lemons (or citrus), while pleasant to us, repels mosquitoes. They can’t stand it. It’s the perfect plant to plant in your yard to dissuade mosquitoes from entering and perfect for your skin to help ward off mosquitoes.

Think about it, you have all these unpleasant means to get rid of mosquitoes. For instance, those outside candles that could be dangerous around little children, those bug zappers that draw the bugs in the first place, chemical sprays, and body bug sprays that either don’t work or have an unpleasant smell. If you take a chance on those, then why not take a chance with the natural way?

Here’s another cool fact, some of those outdoor candles contain citronella, which helps ward of the bugs. Citronella is naturally found in lemongrass. It may work better straight from the source, don’t you think?

Lemongrass has other amazing benefits for your skin as well. It can help ward of skin infections and fight fungus. It can also act as an astringent, which can help dry out acne. Try the lemongrass. Plant some of it around your yard to help keep mosquitoes away and also use it on your skin so you have protection wherever you go. That way you’re not just warding off mosquitoes, but you’re also protecting yourself and your skin from possibly damaging unpleasant bites.

The EE 411:

To get you started we have a few awesome selections. Since lemongrass has these great benefits for your skin and relieves us from the world’s most annoying pests, we suggest using our Lemon Fresh Shea organic body bars, body balms, sugar scrubs, and bath salts. We also have a lemongrass mint organic lip balm.

Our refreshing body bars contain lemongrass, shea butter, and cocoa butter, which have the following benefits:

Lemongrass
– Wards off skin infections
– Helps fight fungus infections on skin
– Acts as an astringent

Shea Butter
– Acts as a natural moisturizer
– Soothes skin
– Protects skin against aggressions (wind, sun, cold etc.)

Cocoa Butter
– Fades blemishes
– Hydrates the skin

Our skin softening body balms contain lemongrass and shea butter too; but they also have coconut and sunflower oil. They have the following benefits:

Sunflower Oil
– Aids in the regeneration of skin
– Helps reduce scars and heal wounds
– Improves the appearance of dry, weathered, and aged skin
– Rich in Vitamins A, D, and E which act as an antioxidant

Coconut Oil
– Prevents the drying and flaking of skin
– Helps with rashes
– Protects against sun damage

The sugar scrub has the same benefits as the body balms with the addition of sugar, which can exfoliate the skin, break down the bonding or sticking together of skin cells, and facilitates moisture.

The bath salts also have lemongrass and shea butter, along with sea salt. The benefits of sea salt are that it helps detoxify the body, relaxes the muscles, and reduces aches and pains.

Give one of these a try for your summer vacations and Fourth of July barbeques. There’s nothing to lose and everything to gain. You could improve the quality of your skin, while protecting yourself from radicals that may ruin the skin like mosquitoes.

Coconut oil and sunflower oil can help regenerate the skin and when those pests bite they can leave behind nasty sores. Overtime it, these natural organic oils could improve those damaged areas’ appearances, bringing back your skin’s natural glow and pigment.

Lip Balm – Nourishing Lip Balm

Hey Earth’s Enrichers

The weather is now at its finest and also, minus the humid days, it’s driest. Usually, the spring is known for its nice breezy days with moist rainy weather and the occasional thunderstorm. While, on the other hand, summer is known for its intense heat and days without rain. This means it kind of gets dry. Sometimes, like in the harsh winter, it can dry out your skin, especially your lips.

When the weather dries and the body starts to become thirsty or slightly dehydrated, the lips can start to become chapped and dry. It is important to stay hydrated and moisturize your skin, including having a lip balm and practicing healthy lip care.

We at EE narrowed down two main ingredients that we use in our lip balm that are sure to provide your lips with the nourishment they need. These ingredients are coconut oil and shea butter, which are well known for providing protection for your skin.

Organic Skin Care – Winter Routine

Good Winter Earth’s Enrichers!

This is the coldest part of the year. Do you have what it takes to complete the winter routine challenge? Each day during the harsh cold of the winter season, there is a routine to keep your skin healthy and give it what it needs to protect itself from the cold atmosphere. The goal of this winter routine is to keep your skin moisturized– that way it won’t become chapped or blistered.

Believe it or not, during the cold winter season your skin is introduced from one extreme climate to the next. When you’re outside it’s pure cold, maybe a harsh wind or two, and sometimes without enough moisture to help your skin. Then when you go inside to warm up, it can be too hot for your skin reducing the amount of its moisture.

There are routines that you can do to keep your skin hydrated and protected. The most important area of focus is the skin on your face. In the winter you are more than likely covered neck to toe in warmer clothes that shield your arms, legs, and sometimes hands from the harsher weather. Your face has to endure the whipping wind and extreme cold—so it should be your priority before you leave the house to have it properly moisturized.

To moisturize properly, look for moisturizers especially for your face that protect from the cold and also the sun! Even though it is freezing and it feels like the sun is on vacation, it is really still emitting rays that could negatively affect your skin, depending on the sensitivity. Look for moisturizers that contain sunblock. That way you add another layer of protection to your facial skin.

The usual morning routine consists of washing your face. During cold weather, it’s best to take extra precaution in your facial cleansing. Since the cold weather already has the capability of drying out your skin, try not to use cleansers that will aid in this. Instead, try looking for cleansers that do not contain sulfates or alcohol, which tend to dry out and chap skin.

Remember, your lips are a part of your face and they need their own special kind of care. When it’s cold it can be even more difficult to keep your lips from falling apart, so be sure to look for moisturizing lip balms or chapsticks that contain sunblock. That way your entire face is happy and you can show it through your lips with a perfectly comfortable smile.

Your hands are very important you, so it makes sense to keep them moisturized as well, especially if you don’t have gloves. That way you give your hands a fighting chance against winter’s scorn. Keeping them moisturized helps prevent abrasions (such as splitting of the skin due to dryness) and uncomfortable things like hangnails. Since your hands are one of the most busiest parts of your body, you might want to use creams to help keep them moisturized longer.

Outer beauty isn’t always all that counts; it’s inner beauty as well. Eating and drinking properly can keep your skin nourished. Other than moisturizing properly, you should drink lots of water. It helps keep your skin moisturized. It’s almost like your body’s back up plan against dryness. So keeping it fueled with enough hydration helps keep you looking young and refreshed, instead of dry and ashy.

Even though we highlighted a few areas that need the most care in this weather, it is important to moisturize all of your skin on a daily basis. That way your entire body is protected. So we challenge you to take up these routines in 2014 to shield your skin from the harsh elements of the outdoors.

The EE 411: General Steps

For keeping your face moisturized and ready for the day:

Wash your face using alcohol-free (sulfate-free, etc.) cleansers.
Use moisturizers that are beneficial for your skin type and contain sun protection
Avoid exfoliating when skin is dry or chapped; it could cause blistering. (If this happens, you should see a medical professional.)
Apply lip moisturizer (balm, chapstick, etc.) that is beneficial for your lips and also contains sun protection.

What not to leave the house without:

Lip balm (or chapstick, etc.)
Water bottle
Hand sanitizer
Hand cream
Gloves

Give your hands a hand! Moisturize them before you leave the house and after washing your hands when going outside. That way they can help you do the activities you do every day. Stay warm!

Natural Lip Care

Hey Earth’s Enrichers!

Lip care?! I know what you are thinking, what about lip care? What is there to know other than moisturize by using chap stick? Well, what you may not know is how important it is to moisturize your lips properly. Just like the other fleshy parts of your body, your lips can be sensitive and may need special treatment.

Have you ever heard of lip allergies? It can happen when the skin on your lips reacts negatively to certain lip products. The symptoms may include burning, itching, or even chapping. These symptoms can also occur if your lips are not moisturized properly. But most importantly, allergic reactions to lip products can be triggered by some ingredients in the products themselves, such as propyl gallate. This ingredient is found in a number of lipsticks. Also, look out for phenyl salicylate which can cause lip irritation as well.

Most folks forget that their lips are also exposed to the harshness of the elements. Cold weather, wind, and even the sun can affect your lips. So, wear lip products that can comfort your skin but also protect it from the elements. They make chap sticks, and lip balms for a variety of occasions. For instance, if it is freezing and the wind’s blowing fiercely, unless you like minty cool feeling, try to avoid it. Use something more soothing and warming like coconut or aloe vera based lip products. Also, it is important to use chap sticks and lip balms with sunblock in them. It helps protect your lips against the sun’s rays.

When selecting and buying lip products that suit your needs, make sure you read the directions along with the ingredients. Believe it or not, some chap sticks are strictly made for medical usage and should only be used in certain dosages. If used incorrectly, you could potentially damage you lips.

The EE 411:

Your lips aren’t just there to complement your smile. Their primary purpose is to help you fulfill your nourishment requirements meaning they’re there to help you eat. They come in contact with everything you eat and drink!

When drinking or eating foods or beverages that are high in acid (citrus, etc.) it could potentially dry out your lips and irritate them. Also, if you’re eating greasy or oily foods, be sure to wipe your lips and around your mouth so that they don’t break out or become irritated.

Do not use wipes (like the ones they give you in restaurants for your hands) to wipe your mouth. They were not designed for facial usage. If you have baby wipes (for facial usage) or any wipe that is designed for facial skin, use those.

One of the other most frequent things that come in contact with your lips is toothpaste. For some of us it touches our lips about two or three times a day. Toothpaste can contain chemicals called guaiazulene, and sodium lauryl sulfate which can cause chapped lips and skin irritations. So always read the toothpaste labels so that you know what is coming in contact with your lips.

Try to avoid alcohol, parabens, fragrances, menthol, camphor and phenol cool. These can produce lip irritations as well.

Last but certainly not least, don’t lick your lips too often. No matter how attractive you think it is, it can irritate you lips as well. Keep your hands and any foreign objects (metal objects) away from your mouth.
