Rustic Maka Ready to Glow

Why It is Special

Rustic Maka Ready to Glow:

  • Promotes collagen production on face and body skin
  • Ideal for Lymphatic Face Massage
  • Contains Organic Ingredients which are free of Phthalates & Synthetics
  • It is a waterless product, so the treating ingredients are pure and not diluted.  Formulations not diluted with water have the ability to be far more effective.

Let’s take a look at the ingredients in this formulation:

Chamomile

Matricaria Recutita (Chamomile) Flowers

Chamomile is an antioxidant with potent skin-soothing action. [3] It contains Terpenoids, bisabolol and chamazulene.

Bamboo Sprout

Bambusa Vulgaris (Bamboo) Extract

Bamboo Stem Extract has flavones, a source of natural antioxidants. Since the skin on both face and body is a major target of oxidative stress, the antioxidant protection provided by bamboo extract is excellent within this formulation. [8]

Bamboo extract contains glycosides, phenolic acids, and amino acids. These hold skin nourishing and soothing properties.

Bamboo extract is also hydrating.

Get your glow on with Ready to Glow

Ready to Glow gives a soft, supple look and feel to skin

Ready to Glow gives a soft, supple look and feel to skin

The Experience

One pump is enough for face and throat. Nicely emollient on my chapped lips. There is a very light, pleasant scent of fresh plums, perhaps a hint of apricot.

It absorbs and leaves a finish more like a cream than an oil, I am not greasy at all.  Sunscreen and makeup can be applied immediately without piling or running. Mixing a few drops of Ready to Glow with my foundation gives a soft, luminous look.

While intended for face AND body, there is such good ingredients, we use it primarily on face, throat and décolletage. It also works well on hands and dry cuticles. It absorbs exceptionally well. It is drier than hemi-squalene oil, so if you chose to use it on body and legs, you would not have to wait to dry down before getting dressed.

My skin looks supple after use, not “wet”.

TIP: Try it with your Gua Sha tools, it gives the perfect slip!

Pedicure Spa at Home: Equilibrian Foot Care Kit

November 21, 2019 · Leave a Comment

Are you embarrassed to wear your favorite shoes because of cracked heels and dry feet? Keep feet in spa-worthy shape with the Equilibrian Foot Care Kit. It uses AHAs, BHAs, and essential oils and peels feet naturally with no shellfish based ingredients.
Do your favorite shoes reveal cracked heels or dry foot skin? Fix it with Equilibrian Foot Care Kit

Do your favorite shoes reveal cracked heels or dry foot skin? Fix it with Equilibrian Foot Care Kit

Feet don’t get much attention over winter, and foot skin quickly becomes neglected and unsightly. But who wants scaly feet during that mid-winter tropical vacation? Or during a yoga, barre or pilates class? Keep feet smooth and delicate all year long without a special trip to the salon. This kit contains everything you need to get soft feet.

Are dry feet with cracked heels embarrassing you in yoga or pilates class? Try the Equilibrian Foot Care Kit to peel away all the dead skin and keep feet smooth and pretty.

ABOUT THIS SET

This Equilibrian Foot Care Kit keeps feet smooth all year long. It contains:

  • Two pairs of foot peel masks
  • Moisturizing gel socks
  • One hydrating foot mask
  • Bonus foot rasp file and a silicone scrubbing pad

Kit contents

STEP ONE:  Foot Peel Mask

This mask contains AHAs, BHAs, natural extracts, and botanicals. It gently and safely penetrates dead skin cells to break down and remove the outer layers.

Two pairs of the Step 1 Foot peel

Foot Peel Ingredients

Glycolic Acid(AHA) Glycolic Acid (AHA) exfoliates by loosening the “glue” that adheres dry, dead skin to healthy skin, and then dissolves away the dead skin. There is also limited redness or irritation after use. Skin is brighter, younger, softer, and it glows like younger skin.  Glycolic Acid also promotes collagen production.

Lactic acid exfoliates and brightens skin. It is gentler than glycolic acid. Lactic acid holds moisture while increasing firmness and skin thickness.

Salicylic Acid is a bHA (beta hydroxy acid). Salicylic acid removes dry skin debris without excess drying. It helps build collagen. Salicylic acid works best when paired with another peeling agent.

Hyaluronic Acid retains moisture and increases the effectiveness of other ingredients. It holds so much moisture that it instantly plumps fine lines. Hyaluronic Acid also helps active ingredients sink deeper into the skin.

Castor seed oil is a humectant

Castor seeds

Castor Seed Oil is a humectant reduces inflammation, heals scars and hydrates.

Vitamin E softens skin texture and reduces acne scars. Vitamin E makes old acne scars softer and more pliable. Vitamin E makes rough, sunburned, scarred or otherwise damaged skin soft and pliable. Once the skin is pliable, other treating ingredients can work their magic.

 

 

STEP TWO: Moisturizing Gel Socks

One size fits all, they are suitable for women and men.

These hypo-allergenic gel lined socks are infused with essential oils and lotion for soft, healthy feet. They are reusable and washable and will hydrate feet for up to three months or sixty wearings.

Gel lined socks with skid-proof bottoms

Wear the moisturizing gel socks for one hour per session to keep feet smooth and soft. I like to use them once or twice a week. They have skid-proof treads on the bottom for safety.

Moisturizing Gel Sock Infused Ingredients

Grapeseed Oil Extract kills bacteria while softening skin

Grapeseed Oil is nourishing to the skin and contains building blocks for collagen production. High in Polyphenols, Vitamins C, D, E and Omega 6, it treats dry skin, wrinkles, discoloration, and aging. Grapeseed Oil Extract kills bacteria while softening skin.

 

Lavender

Lavender Oil softens and conditions the skin.

 

Jojoba is excellent for body skin. Jojoba has a similar structure to sebum, replacing the natural oils the scalp needs to stay healthy. It removes impurities and skin flakes, reduces inflammation and soothes skin. Jojoba oil is an emollient, made of 98% monounsaturated fats. Jojoba is a carrier oil, increasing the efficacy of other active ingredients.

Olives benefits the skin

Olive Oil has skin enhancing Omega-3s and polyphenols. Olive Oil makes skin smooth and supple. Linoleic acid has an anti-inflammatory effect.

STEP THREE:  Moisturizing Mask Booties

These disposable hydrating booties are fortified with powerful natural hydrating ingredients to moisturize and nourish foot skin. Wear them for 15 to 20 minutes, no need to rinse off feet after use.

Step 3 disposable booties

 

Moisturizing Mask Booties Ingredients

Apricot Kernel Oil

Apricot Oil is an emollient that softens and smooths. It contains antioxidant vitamin E and nourishing fatty acids (mostly oleic acid 54-74%, linoleic acid 12-35%). It has nourishing and moisturizing properties and is quite easily absorbed into the skin.

Hyaluronic Acid retains moisture and increases the effectiveness of other ingredients. It holds so much moisture that it instantly plumps fine lines. Hyaluronic Acid also helps active ingredients sink deeper into the skin.

Vitamin E softens skin texture and reduces acne scars. Vitamin E makes old acne scars softer and more pliable. Vitamin E makes rough, sunburned, scarred or otherwise damaged skin soft and pliable. Once the skin is pliable, other treating ingredients can work their magic.

Castor Seed Oil is a humectant reduces inflammation, heals scars and hydrates.

Rosa Rugosa

Rosa Rugosa

Rosa Rugosa flower extract is rich in vitamin C, sucrose, citric acid, malic acid, and carotene.  It promotes collagen production and reduces enlarged pores. It also makes the skin exceptionally smooth while removing excess inflammation.

Macadamia oil is very rich and contains many natural lipids and fatty acids. It’s a high oleic acid oil (50-67% oleic acid and only 0-5% linoleic acid) that makes it very emollient and helpful for dry skin types. Macadamia uniquely contains high amounts of the rare palmitoleic acid (12-25%) that give Macadamia oil a “cushiony” feel. It’s also easily absorbed and makes the skin soft and supple.

BONUS

Use the bonus tools to address calluses or especially rough patches of skin such as cracked heels.

Well made dual sided foot rasp and silicone scrubber

Well made dual-sided foot rasp and silicone scrubber

 

MY EXPERIENCE

This three-step system gently removes dead skin, then the gel socks and moisturizing mask keep feet smooth.

After using the peel, my feet felt instantly smoother. The dead skin started to peel in a few days. Then they continued to peel for about two or three days. So much dead skin came off! Skin slowly exfoliates away layer by layer until all the dry skin is gone. I was especially impressed with how much smoother and softer my dry, cracked heels were immediately after using the peel.

There is no discomfort, stinging or burning while using the peel. It does not sting like AHAs and BHAs do on the face.

The peeling will continue for several days, however, and it is unattractive, so be prepared to cover the feet during this unsightly week. But afterward, the feet are so smooth!

How to Use the Peel

Open one STEP ONE package. There is one pair of booties folded inside. You can see the peel solution. 

Step 1 booties have the AHA and BHA acids to gently peel feet

Soak feet, unfold the booties and tear or cut the tops. Slip the booties on the feet for 90 to 120 minutes. It does not sting or burn, you can put your feet up, relax and watch a movie. Then remove the booties and wash off your feet.

Next put on the gel socks.

The gel socks are comfortable and wearing them for an hour makes my feet softer and smooth.

I like that they are hypoallergenic, reusable, roomy and comfortable. The essential oils and infused lotion means I don’t have to add any extra lotions or creams for my feet to be soft after use.

The bonus tools are of good quality and manage calluses before they become unsightly. The foot rasp is particularly effective.

great gift

This three-step system gently removes dead skin, then the gel socks and moisturizing mask keep feet smooth. It comes nicely boxed and makes a great gift!

Better Beauty Sleep: NTBAY 100% BRUSHED Microfiber Pillowcases

September 29, 2019 · 18 Comments

The best skincare products in the world won’t work properly if your body is not getting the proper amount of restorative sleep. That is why on Style Chicks we have a Better Beauty Sleep series, with tips and products that we find help us to get a better night’s sleep. 

 

You spend (hopefully) eight hours asleep. That is eight hours that your hair and skin are in contact with your pillowcase. It is also eight hours that your hair and skin can either be subjected to friction and irritation, or to gentle, soft comfort. We prefer the latter, which is why we love NTBAY 100% Brushed Microfiber Pillowcases.

WHY WE LIKE NTBAY 100% BRUSHED Microfiber Pillowcases:

NTBAY 100% BRUSHED Microfiber Pillowcases are soft and luxurious feeling against my skin and my hair easily glides over them, almost like a silk pillowcase. I don’t wake up with “pillow face” thanks to the soft microfiber. It is so gentle on skin!

I also don’t wake up with staticky or frizzy hair. I can style my hair at night and it is as smooth and glossy the next morning as it was when I went to bed!

These generously sized pillowcases are soft on skin and hair

Cozy enough for lounging in bed on a lazy Sunday

Other features of NTBAY 100% BRUSHED Microfiber Pillowcases:

  • They are made of 100% Microfiber
  • The package contains four Queen size pillowcases (20″x30″). The pillowcases are very well made, and the stitching looks like very expensive pillowcases.
  • They are breathable so you won’t get too hot at night!
  • They are wrinkle-resistant. In addition to looking nicer, wrinkle-resistant pillowcases are gentler on your skin and hair.
  • They are stain-resistant, which is great for nights that your skincare products accidentally get on your pillowcase.
  • They use an Environmentally-Friendly dyeing technique that is gentle on the skin. So you don’t have to worry about your skin getting irritated from harmful chemicals on your pillow!
  • Easy Care: Machine Wash Cold on the Gentle Cycle.
  • NTBAY 100% BRUSHED Microfiber Pillowcases are available in Standard, Queen, King, and Body Pillow Size!

Fold-over flap detailing completely covers the pillow

 

Well done seams and stitching

THE BEST PART: SO. MANY. COLOR. CHOICES!

There are 24 color choices to choose from! No matter what your color scheme, you will find a gorgeous, rich color to match. I like adding a pop of color to neutral bedscapes with gorgeous colored pillows, and there are endless variations to work with! Pink and Sage Green make for a fun and bright color combo, and Pale Orange and Coffee and perfect for Autumn! Try pairing them with Copper colored throw pillows or a duvet cover for a luxurious Fall look.

Crisp white pillowcases add a crisp, modern look and feel to vibrant autumn colors or metallics

 

Tie together bright colors, metallics, and patterns with these crisp white pillowcases

I picked Sage Green and Royal Blue for this time of year because the Sage Green is still a little Summery, but is also a little Autumnal. They go gorgeously with the richness of the Royal Blue pillowcases! And when it comes to pillowcases, you can never go wrong with crisp white!

Comes in twenty-four vibrant colors

The fabric feels really good too. This month has been a little crazy temperate-wise, so I’ve gotten to experience them on both weather extremes. On hot nights there are cool and don’t cling to your face (I hate that!), and on cold nights they provide warmth thanks to the microfiber!

And after a couple of washings, they are getting softer but are staying just as strong and fresh looking! They haven’t faded or gotten thinner, as some linens tend to do. The no-fade feature is a perk since the pillowcases set comes in so many lovely, vibrant colors.

Mix and match colors for a bright and cheery look

I particularly like that this set has four pillowcases since it allows the ability to switch out pillowcases each night and have spares to wash. Ideally, you should change out your pillowcase daily, as is the recommendation by dermatologists, for keeping your facial skin as clean and clear as possible.

Make a guest room feel comfy with multiple pillows.  NTBAY comes four pillowcases in each set

The only thing I would like different about the pillowcase sets is that the packaging is a little tight for four pillowcases, so there were some creases that I had to gently iron out when I first used them. It’s a very small thing, but it would be nice to have them arrive crease-free, especially if I was giving them as a gift.

Four generously sized pillowcases per set

Speaking of giving them as a gift, NTBAY 100% BRUSHED Microfiber Pillowcases would make an excellent gift. Either for a child off at college, a friend who needs a pick me up, or to an elderly neighbor, being able to send soft, colorful pillowcases like these makes for a great gift!

Post Pilates Relief: Vital Body Muscle & Joint Pain Relief CBD Cream

August 8, 2019 · 4 Comments

Today is National CBD Day!
Do your muscles ache after a long day or a good pilates workout?

Vital Body Muscle & Joint Pain Relief CBD Cream combines ginger, arnica and CBD for natural topical pain relief. This hand-made, small batch pain cream has hemp-derived CBD but there is ZERO cannabis scent. It doesn’t smell medicinal and it isn’t at all sticky or greasy. Read below to see how this natural formulation works for inflammation and other muscle and joint pain.

Natural Medicine Vital Body Muscle & Joint Pain Relief CBD Cream

Hemp derived CBD

Hemp derived CBD

Lots of creams and rubs claim to ease pain. Why is this one different?

Vital Body Muscle & Joint Pain Relief CBD Cream uses eight organic herbs including arnica, ginger and comfrey.

It has 200 mg of hemp-derived CBD per bottle. The European Journal of Pain published a study which found that “topical CBD application has therapeutic potential for relief of arthritis pain-related behaviours and inflammation without evident side-effects.”[1]

Ginger

Ginger

Ginger has impressive benefits. Natural remedy expert Dr. Krishna C. Srivastava had a study that appeared in the Journal of Pain. It said ginger blocks the “formation of the inflammatory compounds-prostaglandins and leukotrienes” -and also has antioxidant effects that break down existing joint inflammation. 

Vital Body Muscle & Joint Pain Relief CBD Cream doesn’t stain clothes and it absorbs well.

Creamy texture absorbs quickly

Arnica

Arnica is an anti-inflammatory. Studies show it is helpful with osteoarthritis and knee pain. It reduces swelling.[2]

 

 

 

 

Comfrey

Comfrey

Comfrey is used in preparations for the « topical treatment of pain, inflammation and swelling of muscles and joints in degenerative arthritis, acute myalgia in the back, sprains, contusions and strains after sports injuries and accidents” [3]

 

 

 

Proprietary blend of essential oils

Essential Oils.

A blend of essential oils to soothe sore muscles including:

  • Lavender
  • Eucalyptus
  • Orange
  • Cedarwood
  • Vetiver
Ginger

Ginger is scientifically proven to stop inflammation

 

The cream has no weird odor and absorbs well. It is a conveniently sized jar that fits in my gym bag to fight post workout inflammation and soreness.  Instead of popping ibuprofen or taking Tylenol for specific muscle or joint pain, Vital Body Muscle & Joint Pain Relief CBD Cream can ease muscle and joint aches naturally.

How to Fix Dry Skin Organically: SuperNatural Body Glo Body Oil with Bergamot

May 8, 2019 · 28 Comments

At StyleChicks, we adore many skincare friendly ingredients. So when those ingredients come together into one organic product, we’re positively giddy. Our source of giddiness is SuperNatural Body Glō Body Oil with Bergamot. It contains skincare all star ingredients.

Supernatural Body Glō Body Oil with Bergamot - 100% USDA Certified Organic

Supernatural Body Glō Body Oil with Bergamot is 100% USDA Certified Organic

WHAT IT IS

Supernatural Body Glō Body Oil is a lightweight post-shower oil to restore and nourish the skin. In a few days to weeks, see skin that naturally glows. We mean it. Even eczema or psoriasis, back acne, old scars, and dry, dull, scaly legs look and feel better.

WHAT IT DOES: A QUICK FIX FOR NEGLECTED BODY SKIN

I moisturize face and throat but often neglect body skin. Winter takes its’ toll on long-neglected arms, shoulders, and legs. The skin on shoulders, arms, chest, and decolletage deserve love too.

SuperNatural Body Glō Body Oil makes it very easy to make amends for a winter of skin neglect. A small amount of this post-shower spray-on oil hydrates and restores skin. It dries down fast with a light bergamot scent. Skin isn’t left slippery or greasy.

WHAT MAKES SUPERNATURAL Body GLO Body Oil SPECIAL?

The ingredient list reads like a skin care all-star roster. When combined, they synergistically enhance each other while creating a balanced, light oil that addresses numerous skin needs. Expect skin to be softer and brighter with superior moisture retention. Long-term benefits of these ingredients include better collagen, elastin and ceramide levels.

SuperNatural Body Glō Body Oil is 100% USDA Certified Organic. Ingredients include Sacha Inchi Oil, Sea Buckthorn, Grapeseed and Jojoba Oils. Also Castor, Coconut, Amla, Sunflower, Matcha, and Kelp.

MY EXPERIENCE

A small amount massaged into the body leaves skin so soft to the touch. It absorbs quickly and does not stain clothing. It dries down without being greasy. This is a restorative treatment. My skin is not just temporarily enhanced with moisturizer.  It is well hydrated and healthy looking all day. Even cracked elbows, dry patches on my upper arms, rough knees and feet.  Decolletage and shoulders are soft and supple.



SuperNatural Body Glō Body Oil makes a lovely gift for yourself or for Mom!

Details for the Ingredient Obsessed:
HOW DOES SUPERNATURAL Body Glō Body Oil WORK?

Want to know how it works? Read below for a detailed overview of the amazing ingredient combination in Glō Body Oil:

SUPERSTAR INGREDIENT BREAKDOWN

The Vital fab four

The heavy lifting of intense body skin rehab comes from these four ingredients. These are Sacha Inchi Oil, Sea Buckthorn, Grapeseed, and Jojoba. You’ve likely used the latter but know less about the former. Sachi Inchi and Sea Buckthorn are amazing additions to your skincare.

1.  SACHA INCHI OIL

Sacha Inchi Oil contains Plant Sterols. These improve moisture retention and rebuilds skin’s natural lipid barriers. It keeps skin elastic with astounding levels of omega-3s and omega-6s and some omega-9s. Topical omegas actually prevent future sun damage. Other oils cannot compete with Sacha Inchi’s toxin-free high omega profile. This is important because omegas maintain ceramides, regulate sebum, and make skin glow.

Sacha Inchi Oil contains high levels of behenic acid, an anti-aging superstar. It also contains Vitamin A and E.

Sacha Inchi oil is lightweight and doesn’t clog pores. This is amazing because it has about three times the essential fatty acid content of coconut oil. This scent-free oil has exceptional moisturizing properties. It works on even chronically dry, sensitive and irritated skin. (1)

2.  SEA BUCKTHORN

Sea Buckthorn contains over 200 skin-friendly nutrients. It restores skin and builds collagen. The omegas make skin glow from within. This non-irritating oil is an anti-inflammatory that treats acne, eczema, and psoriasis. See fine lines become smoother and softer.

Sea Buckthorn’s value in skincare has been documented in medical journals and books. One stated:

“Valuable substances contained in sea-buckthorn oil play an important role in the proper functioning of the human body and give skin a beautiful and healthy appearance. A balanced composition of fatty acids give the number of vitamins or their range in this oil and explains its frequent use in cosmetic products for the care of dry, flaky or rapidly aging skin. Moreover, its unique unsaturated fatty acids, such as palmitoleic acid (omega-7) and gamma-linolenic acid (omega-6), give sea-buckthorn oil skin regeneration and repair properties.” (2)

3.  GRAPESEED OIL

Grapeseed Oil is often found in high-end brands with good reason. It is nourishing and contains building blocks for collagen production. High in Polyphenols, Vitamins C, D, E and Omega 6, it treats dry skin, wrinkles, discoloration, and aging. Being organic, as in this product, is especially important for grapeseed oils.

4.  JOJOBA OIL

Jojoba Oil is close to the chemical composition of our natural oils. It regulates oily skin, removes impurities and flakes, reduces inflammation and soothes skin. It is also a carrier oil that helps other oils penetrate.
