Holistic Care for your Hair from Maple Holistics

argan-shampoo1-250x250

My latest find in Hair Care is from Maple Holistics. Maple Holistics is a homeopathic solution for your hair and it’s wonderful! I love this shampoo; it’s gentle on my hair leaving it soft and bouncy. I especially love knowing that this shampoo offers everything that is healthy and natural for my hair.

Maple Holistics Argan Shampoo contains some extremely effective oils that will help your hair and scalp maintain its health.  Argan Oil, also known as Moroccan Oil is one of the rarest oils in the world. I use many products with Moroccan oil and I don’t ever shy away from a beauty product containing it. Argan Oil contains Vitamin E, Carotene, and essential fatty acids…all good stuff!

Other ingredients include, Peach Kernel (moisturizes, and great for sensitive skin), Avocado (containing vitamins A, B1, B2, D, and E),  Camellia Seed (conditioning and rejuvenating), Almond Oli (moisturizing and soothing), Jojoba and Botanical (Keratin is a family of fibrous structural proteins, which contribute to the composition of hair. As it is essential to hair’s formation, insufficient quantities of keratin may be a contributing factor to having frizzy and unmanageable hair. This naturally derived ingredient helps to replenish the ideal keratin content for strong, durable hair)”. Of course, there are the fragrances of Honey and Vanilla. What’s not to love about this healthy and natural Shampoo.

Maple Holistics Silk18 Natural Conditioner is equally beneficial.  It is a great compliment to the Argan Shampoo providing moisture to your hair and the results? Silky bouncy and beautifully shiny hair. I have curly hair, and my curls have definition and bounce and without frizz at all, it’s perfect! Silk18 Natural Conditioner contains Silk Amino Acids, “Eighteen naturally-derived (literally extracted during the silkworms process of creating silk) silk amino acids prompts an assortment of hair and scalp benefits. Some of these benefits include strengthened hair fibers and natural restoration for flawless hair health. Also, the high molecular weight of the silk amino acids results in the formation of a substantive film to increase scalp permeability. Includes L-Alanine, Glycine, L-Serine, L-Valine, L-Threonine, and more.”

Shea Butter, Aloe Vera, and Green Tea are also contained in the conditioner that help promote moisture to dry hair to dry and delicate hair strands. Shea butter contains vitamins A and E, and is aa natural moisturizer. Aloe Vera is the conditioning agent, and Green Tea strengthens hair roots, activating hair follicles promoting hair growth. Other beneficial ingredients include Pomegranate, Hibiscus and Sea Buckthorn. Silk 18 even aids in preventing problems like dandruff,split ends, and premature graying.

Maple Holistics Silk18 Natural Conditioner has an amazing scent of vanilla, after all it does contain 100% natural vanilla, and the scent stays in your hair even after drying. View the complete line of hair, body and skincare at  mapleholistics

Protect Your Hair with Amika

8-8-2013 5-20-05 PM

Summer is a fun time. Between the hot sunny days and the pleasant summer evenings, it is the time of year when you can just sit back, relax and not worry about anything and put your worries away. Well, that is not entirely true when it comes to your body. Just like your skin, hair too is affected by the sun. Without the proper products, you can kiss your beautiful hair color goodbye. Fortunately with amika: pHERFECTION Color Shampoo you don’t have to.

When I started using amika: pHERFECTION Color Shampoo my hair color came back to life. I have platinum blonde highlights in my hair that when they are exposed to the sun tend to look a little on the brassy side. I mean come on; no one wants orange hair right lol? amika: pHERFECTION Color Shampoo is enriched with Sea Buckthorn Berry oil that will enrich and replenish tired, dull hair and vitamin E to help maintain the hair’s manageability. With my curly mane I need all the manageability I can get.

Now you are probably wondering why perfection is spelled “PHerfection” am I right? Well, I just recently found out why it is spelled that certain way. While all the other ingredients are doing their thing, the pH range in the shampoo locks in the color while leaving the hair radiant and shiny. Your hair’s natural pH range is 5.0-5.5, so with amika you can be sure your hair is getting the utmost care.

So stop worrying about your hair and get to enjoying your summer with amika: pHERFECTION Color Shampoo. Learn more at www.loveamika.com and be sure to ask your stylist for more info as well .

Celebrity Stylists Beware, Amika Obliphica Blow Up Spray is Here

 image005-2
Amika Blow Up Spray  is one of the best hair products on the market!!!! My hair is thick and curly and on my shelf, I have many products to maintain and moisturize my curly ringlets. The present style, however, is straight, glossy hair. There are ten spray bottles to curl or straighten my hair falling off my vanity. Every day, I rifle through the many bottles to help give my hair the moisture and shine for the desired look of the day. My husband shakes his head and cannot believe the amount of money and different products it takes to make my hair look beautiful. Every time I go to the hairdresser, they offer to sell me another product expected to do miraculous things to my hair. The confusion, shopping and money with all these products were making me crazy until I found Amika Blow Up Spray. The spray delivers volume and shape while moisturizing your hair. I could not believe the results, and literally threw away ten spray bottles.          
 
My friends came over for the holiday and I was very excited to show them the results of the Amika Blow Up Spray. My hair was beginning to look flat, as it had become late in the afternoon. I bent my head over and sprayed each section and this revolutionary Ultra-lightweight mist brought my hair back to life. My friends were laughing and said it looked like a celebrity hairstylist transformed my hair in one-minute. The spray is easy to apply, not greasy, adds volume and lasts a long time.  My favorite ingredient the sea buckthorn berry in the product helps to repair split ends and eliminate frizz.  The argon oil vitamin C, Omega 3, 6, and 9 make it safe to use on color-treated hair.  Amika Blow Up Spray has helped me to become clutter free, I only need this spray for curly or straight hair!!!

A Berry Beautiful Way to Exorsize Ezcema

Unknown-4

I have a confession to make. When I went to a jewelry store I was so ashamed of my hands, that I would not take my hands out of my pockets. My eczema was so bad, that I would not let anyone see how bad my hands looked, even with my most obsessive passion – jewelry.  My husband is starting to get worried that I’m going to replace my wedding ring, now that I can show my hands off.

I came across a product, Sibu Beauty, which is the ultimate in skin hydration. This product has a hidden ingredient — Sea Buckthorn Berries — which grow wild in the high altitude of Tibet. Sea Buckthorn cream hydrates, softens and rejuvenates skin…it is for all skin types and contains 100% natural ingredients. I have tried a multitude of products to get rid of eczema on my elbows and hands, always to come up disappointed until these magical berries appeared in a product.
Literally, in one week the eczema vanished. I use it every day now – and after 48 years of being ashamed of my hands, I cannot believe my hands are smooth and silky, and my elbow disease is gone
.
There are also many other products that I highly recommend and already use daily. The Sea Buckthorn Nourishing Daytime Facial Cream, which promotes tissue recovery and helps restore blemished skin to its natural beautiful state. The nourishing body cream has transformed my scaly dry legs into smooth silky softness that I never imagined.
Now let’s get to the real thing. The Sea Buckthorn Hydrating Serum is a light non-oily serum infused with vitamins, hyarluronic acid, and sea buckthorn extract. This is the magic serum that has cured the eczema – I put this on and then the cream over it. It fights age without damaging chemicals and protects against environmental stress.
Believe it or not, the other startling thing about this product is that it’s not expensive. The starter kit is only $60.00 —  http://www.sibubeauty.com/ compared to department store products that start at $95 per item and go up – and really don’t do a thing.
This product has 100% natural ingredients that truly work on your skin. An added bonus is Sibu Beauty has an amazing aroma when you put it on – its an infusion of the berries, with other all natural elements…just makes it addictive. I can’t wait to put it on tonight.
Below are before and after photos of my elbows, after one week my ezcema has disappeared.

My friends are telling me, and I must agree, that they can’t live without their Tweezernan Tweezers. Next on their list,  the Tweezerman Manicure Set and I am already on it.

Everyone who loves beauty products knows how popular and beneficial Moroccan Oil has become. Inventive Eco Organics Moroccan Collection Gift Set is the perfecv tchoice for gift or stocking stuffer because it contains a sampling of some of their great products and they are small enough to fit in a cosmetic case or travel bag. I know my friends have this on their list too. This 4 piece collection contains Moroccan Body Wash, Moroccan Body Lotion, O2 Enriched Moroccan Argan Oil and Seven Seas Sublime Soak. Once they pamper themselves with this Moroccan Gift Set, they won’t want to leave home without them. http://www.inventiveecoorganic.com/

Sibu Beauty Sea Buckthorn Facial Cream is another favorite, containing all the benefits of Sea Buckthorn. This facial cream is very soothing and contains the extremely beneficial Omega 7 fatty acids. Sibu Beauty Sea Buckthorn Facial Cream is a light, non-greasy cream which helps boost collagen production and will keep your skin feeling moisturized and rejuvenated. This light non greasy cream can be used every day and has a wonderful citrus scent. The perfect stocking stuffer. sibubeauty.com
