skinny skinny: organic soaps & skincare

Found some amazing organic soap by Skinny Skinny that is wrapped in the most exquisite eco manner--with reycled pages of magazines. I think that this is the most brilliant idea besides being recycled it is also colorful and interesting. Each soap ends up being unique! Skinny Skinny recently won the award for Best Green Packaging from the HBA-IPDA for their Organic Soap Set. Well deserved indeed! Soaps available for sale here.

jurlique: new biodynamic skincare range

Biodynamic farming can be considered “organic plus,” combining “biological” practices, such as organic methods of soil regeneration and pest management, with “dynamic” practices intended to encourage a natural rhythm and cycle to the land. Jurlique ingredients are grown on their own hand tended, hand-harvested farms. They are self-sustaining, harvested and irrigated according to the cycles of the moon, employ companion planting methods, and ancient crop rotation practices.

You won't find any Parabens, Mineral Oils, Propylene Glycol, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Synthetic Emulsifiers, Artificial Colors or Fragrances in any Jurlique product. The new line includes a serum, Eye Cream, Night Lotion, and Refining treatment. Each features a blend of biodynamic and organic herbs and flowers blended with potent naturally derived ingredients that soften the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and discolorations while helping to renew and strengthen skin.
