It was over 5 years ago that we received this testimonial from a new Earth To Body fan.  I thought it would be fun to reshare. After all, guinea pigs do elicit smiles. Hi! One of you guys gave me some advice about my horribly damaged skin at the last One of a Kind show. She was completely right about the liquid shampoo being the culprit, not just my exposure to veterinary cleaning products. I switched to your shampoo bar and use the deodorant stone as a hand “soap”. My hands don’t crack anymore. I’ve also noticed I feel better. Usually by about mid week I’m grumpy and miserable; I’m…
The following is a testimonial.  We sell neem for dry and itchy skin and have several products with this incredible oil.  However, we have many informed customers who do their own research and have discovered other benefits of this versatile plant. "I cringe. As a mother, I always dreaded the notices from the elementary schools warning me of lice in the classroom. My thought was 'not my children', as I discarded the paper into recycling. I recall the first time our family attracted these scalp biting critters as clear as day. Growing up, I was lucky to never have had encountered…
Rooibus, Nori, Sea Salt, Almond, Shea, Rosehip are just a few of the nutritious ingredients we use to feed the skin. Did you know the Rooibus leaf, called red bush, is a nutritious tea popular in South Africa?  Besides its miraculous properties when sipped, it also has many benefits on the skin, especially when the skin is irritated or troubled. Rooibus contains alpha-hydroxy acids ( a rare find in nature) and zinc that encourage healthy skin.  That is why we added rooibos tea to our argan foot cream. Our Argan Neem Foot Cream is a mélange of goodness.…
We offer choices of face creams: Argan, Emu or Tamanu oil nestled among other incredible delights such as cocoa butter, almond, jojoba and apricot.  Depending on the cream, you might also find lemon, evening primrose, palmorosa or the captivating camellia.

Below is a recent testimonial that I would like to share with you.  While Erica raves about emu oil for herself and her family, I have also included a couple of emu stories involving pet cats. As I have often mentioned, our Australian rendered, unrefined emu oil is unsurpassed.   “My sister first heard about your company at a trade show in Toronto. She has always suffered from terrible eczema, and had come home with your Emu Oil, which she swore has worked wonders for her skin since her purchase. I do not suffer from eczema, however, have battled cystic acne my whole life,…

The redness of rosacea.  What does one do? There is no cure, only treatments that a dermatologist can help to advise. The chemicals may be calming, but in the end, not always that helpful.However, while natural skin care makes absolutely no claims as to the treatment of rosacea, this does not mean that a good healthy regime cannot make a difference. Wikipedia defines Rosacea: A long-term skin condition that typically affects the face. It results in redness, pimples, swelling, and vessels. Often the nose, cheeks, forehead, and chin are most involved. If you suffer from rosacea…
