Our lotion bars are solid bars of natural oils and butters which melt with body heat and then can be spread onto the skin. They contain no water and there fore need no preservatives and toxic chemicals like commercial brand cream lotions. The lotion bars are easily absorbed by the skin leaving it silky and smooth.

Once you try it, you will never go back to regular commercial lotion again!
This is a collection I would take with me when I go on traveling.
I did not include clothes because I take them as granted, as of minor importance.
Hyaluronic acid is often used as is a key ingredient in many formulations due to its ability to pull moisture into the skin and lock it there.Skin moisturizer NaPCA mist works in a similar way to improve the appearance of dehydrated, mature skin. The sodium salt is what makes the molecule, both water-soluble and an effective humectant, drawing water from the atmosphere to the skin and hair to offer hydration.order now:https://aloehydrate.com/shop/aloe-vera-moisturizing-spray/
As a knitter I like moisturizers that soak in quickly and don't leave a greasy film behind so that I can pick up my current WIP without fear of staining it or dropping needles because my hands are slippery. I also have sensitive skin and some chronic eczema patches on my forearms so I opted for calming and skin-healing essential oils as the light scent.
Combat the effects of aging, wrinkles, dry patches and inflammation with my Natural Handmade Nourishing Under Eye Cream Recipe! This recipe was formulated for those of us who are “maturing” in body but not in mind in order to help minimize the natural effects of aging and improve the overall condition of sensitive under eye skin so we look the way we feel! Based on my own under eye skin issues of occasional dry patches, puffiness, thinning skin and wrinkles that are starting to become visible in my late thirties, I formulated this natural under eye anti-aging cream with a combination of rich, skin conditioning oils and botanicals known for their anti-aging, anti-inflammatory, moisturizing and rejuvenating properties. Grab the recipe to make your own along with free printable labels in three options - b&w, color, and anti-zombie here!
- Softens the skin: "Squalane is great for softening or smoothing the skin, as it may help to support the natural outer barrier of the skin," says Turner.
- Calms inflammation: Turner explains, "It is a good option for dry and irritated skin, as it has been shown to help calm redness and inflammation."
- Great for dry skin types: Turner always recommends squalane for those with dry or and sensitive skin. "Squalane is non-comedogenic, so it can be used for all skin types. Those with dry, irritated, or sensitive skin will see the most effect from squalane oil, but we can all benefit from this superstar skincare ingredient."
- Great for hair: If you love a product that does double duty, squalane is the one. It helps dry hair lock in moisture and has a light feel that won't weigh your hair down.
- Locks in hydration: Since squalane is a compound that we naturally produce, Hayag says the compound doesn't just hydrate but is essential for our skin barrier. "This substance is known for locking in hydration by creating a protective barrier on the skin's surface," she explains.
- Moisturizes: "It is most beneficial for those with dry or mature skin because of its great moisturizing and emollient properties," she says. "It is also wonderful for people exposed to environmental factors such as sunburn, where the skin tends to lose moisture.
- Regulates oil production: "Despite popular belief, people with oily acne-prone skin would benefit greatly from using squalane oil. Since it mimics what we naturally produce, introducing squalane oil can help regulate the amount of sebum the body makes," explains Hayag.

We went to see the D. J. Hall retrospective at the Palm Springs Museum. Hall is a Southern California artist with a home in Palm Desert. She does large-scale paintings of women seated in or near swimming pools. Her women are described as smug, self-satisfied and privileged, and her work is seen as a commentary on wealth, aging and beauty. One review described her paintings as "where trophy wives go to die."
Early in her career Hall painted older women, showing all their wrinkles and veins. The skin had blue/purple/grey tones, as if they were already dead. In the 1980s she painted women with "hysterical smiles." They wear big shoulder pads, mirrored sunglasses and outsized jackets. They look a little stretched, like women who spend way too much time at the gym.
Now that Hall is 57, she's somewhat kinder towards her subjects. The light is softer and her treatment gentler. But critics still gleefully emphasize the edginess, saying that "all is not right" in these worlds. Judging by the comments in the museum's guestbook, viewers like to buy into this idea. They want to project their own fears and insecurities onto Hall's women.
There's a killer irony that she's become a successful artist by painting critiques of the wealthy -- that only the wealthy can afford to buy. I guess people like to show that they can be self-aware and self-deprecating in their choice of art.
The retrospective explains the roots of Hall's ambivalence towards her subject. She had a troubled childhood, growing up with a mother who had severe mental illness. The only time she felt safe was playing in the pool at her grandmother's house in Palm Desert. So the work is about trying to return to a happy time that never really existed. She's angry at her mother because her parents' divorce and her mother's mental illness were taboo, not acknowledged in the family. She transfers that anger onto the rich, creating scenes where we're supposed to look for the flaws. We're supposed to assume that these women aren't as happy as they would like us to believe.
Hall often puts herself in her paintings, usually with her back to the viewer. Although she unflinchingly shows the sagging necks of her models, she paints herself with a firm butt and taut skin. Yet she thinks that these later works are "a visual diary of my journey towards maturity and self-acceptance."
I love her technique and use of color. I could look at this painting for hours. It's one of the few that conveys hope and optimism.
I had a problem with the commentary -- especially what the critics like to think she's saying about women and aging. This is a topic that's close to my heart. It stares back at me every time I look in the mirror, every time I hear a woman being ridiculed for having Botox or plastic surgery. Reviewers like to mention how the women in Hall's paintings show the effects of time "despite their best efforts to the contrary."
As a woman who's showing the effects of time, comments like that make me want to shout back, "What exactly is it I'm supposed to do, then?" But I know the answer. I'm supposed to look good, but not look like I'm trying. It's just supposed to naturally happen -- y'know, the whole "aging gracefully" thing. God forbid I should let on that I care; that would indicate that I'm vain and pathetically trying to hold onto my youth. No, I'm supposed to go along with the deception and play the game. La-de-da, no worries here, nothing a little moisturizer can't fix. If we all look good to each other, we all feel better.
There's such a narrow range of acceptability. If we let ourselves go, that's depressing. If we try too hard, that's desperate. As Mary McNamara, Television Critic for the Los Angeles Times, said, “If women look old, we criticize, and if they try to fix it, we criticize more snidely.”
I'm glad I went to see that art. It gave me a lot to think about. I admire her for turning her pain into something marketable.
Now I'm going to go swim in my pool.
Facial Moisturizer, Bath Oil, Baby Oil, Massage Oil, Aromatherapy, Scalp oil, Pre-shampoo hot oil treatment and a vitamin rich booster to leave-in conditioner are just a few uses for this head to toe body treat.
This light and luscious blend is a mixture of 100% Peach, Cherry, and Apricot extract oils. Apricot oil is known to tone, soften, help retain skin elasticity. When massaged into the scalp it promotes healthy hair growth. Cherry Kernel Oil is rich in vitamins A and E and know for its UV protection. The high end, easily absorbed oil of Peach great for soothing and protecting sensitive skin and safe enough for even baby bottoms.
Our summer fruit blend is never sticky or greasy. Combined, these three oils are easily absorbed and perfect for a number of uses on face, hair and body.

Artistic creation of artwork using santorum as art medium. Santorum is the frothy mix of lube and fecal matter that is sometimes the byproduct of anal sex. This particular batch material was produced using a 50/50 percent solution of lube and fecal matter, however combining two different types of lube: fecal matter obtained from hound/pit-bull mix canis lupus familiaris aged three years named tony, and a creamy white moisturizing lube compound mainly composed of water, mineral oil, glycerin, and petrolatum; as well as a clear color lube compound mainly composed of propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, lactic acid, and hydroxypropylcellulose.
