BEESSENTIAL

Most days the only makeup I put on is lip balm. This is my first time ever using any product from Beessential but after using this lip balm in cinnamon & clove I am in love and want to try out more of their products.

I shop at Shop Rite all of the time and have never noticed their product so I am going to make sure that I look extra close next time I am there to see what they have in stock and if I still can't find them I will as customer service.

My lips feel so smooth and this is not drying like I have found some lip balms to be. I know they aren't supposed to make your lips feel dry but some actually have this effect on me. So far Beessential lip balm just makes them feel better.

Right now on their site this scent or flavor because it is flavored is not available but they have lots of other scents or flavors to pick from as well as their whole product line including gift baskets filled with a mixture of of their products.

Essential Oils & Aromatherapy

reviews

Essential Oils & Aromatherapy
written by
Daniel Alley

This is a nice book that will take you through what essential oils can do, what they can be used for, and how to implement them into your life. I am still learning about essential oils as I go along and add a new one as I can find a use for it in our lives.

Some I have a problem with the scent bothering my allergies but some I have found I can use with no problems. This book will teach you about carrier oils and how to use them with your essential oils for massage, salves, candles, aromatherapy, etc. This is a great book to give as a gift with a few simple essential oils.

Essential Oils & Aromatherapy can be found on Amazon.

As a parent with 6 children I sailed through most of them without a lick of lice, but for some reason even though our girls only go to school and home I have had one had it several times this year.

Shira Acai Facial Mask

Shir-Organics has lots of products from toners to moisturizers for both face and body. Luckily I was able to try out their Shir-Organic Shira Acai Facial Mask. The container that this comes in is awesome all on it's own. I am certainly going to repurpose it after I am done with my facial mask.

I put my mask on after I have washed my face, I let it stay on for 10-15 minutes then rinse with cool water, then follow with my toner, serums, and facial moisturizer, for a full skin regimen. I approve of this product and give it a thumbs up on both appearance and results.

Organic 100% Pure Rosewater

I am always on the lookout for new skin care items. I love to get whole lines of items because they are meant to be used together. When you mix and match you don't know that the items will work together or if you will have breakouts or other problems because of one thing having a reaction to the other.

I like this line because it is easy to use and they all do what they are supposed to do. Today I am here to tell you about the Rosewater which I use like a toner after I cleanse my face but before my serum and moisturizer. You can also use this one your face during the day to hydrate your skin. This even works well on your hair, think fly away hair with a spritz of this and you are good to go.

Here you can also see the Vitamin C cream which works well and comes with my favorite kind of pump. Easy to use and looks great on my vanity. A nice cream that goes on easily and effortlessly blending in the skin quickly.

You can read my review of Joyal Beauty Vitamin C Facial Cleanser Here.

You can find the Joyal Beauty products on Amazon.

What Joyal Beauty has to say about their Rosewater.

This luxurious 100% pure rosewater is steam distilled from Rosa Damascena, which is recognized as a unique type of rose with different properties from roses cultivated elsewhere and is widely considered as the finest in the world.
The Rose Valley in Bulgaria is the best area that provides just the right conditions to grow this incredible rose. The blossoms are collected by hand. Rose oil comes in two main types, Rose Absolute and Rose Otto. Rose Absolute is produced by solvent extraction. Rose Otto sometimes called attar of roses, it has been used since ancient times. It is the more expensive of the two types of rose because it usually extracted by gentle steam distillation from Rosa Damascena. Rose Otto Hydrosol is more pure and provides more benefits to skin compared with Rose Absolute. What distinguishes Rose Absolute from Rose Otto is that Rose Absolute is not considered to be a “true” essential oil as it has undergone a chemical extraction process and therefore is an “absolute”; Rose Otto is an essential oil as it has been extracted through steam distillation. The trace amounts of chemical residue may be found in Rose Absolute which can lead to increased chance of skin irritation. A rose blossom contains only about 0.02% essential oil. Solvent extraction gives a greater yield than distillation which is why Rose Absolute is less expensive than Rose essential oil. Rose Absolute has a stronger, richer aroma. Rose Bulgaria essential oil is lighter in color and has a softer more refined aroma.
Rosewater is basically a by-product of rose oil through distillation of pure fresh rose petals. Rosewater possesses the sweet, delicate scent of the roses from which it is made. It is a natural mild antiseptic and is recommended for acne and skin irritation, for nourishing and hydrating the skin and face, and for nourishing the body after a shower or bath. Rosewater can be used on its own as a soothing toner and cleanser or combined with other ingredients. It’s worth buying the best quality pure rose water you can find and ensuring that it has no added ingredients such as preservatives.
The 100% pure Bulgarian Rose Otto Hydrosol is widely considered as the best rosewater in the world.
