Malie Organics Jasmine Rose Beautify Facial Tonic

Malie Organics Jasmine Rose Beautify Facial Tonic is so simple, yet feels so indulgent. This pure floral water purifies skin for that extra clean feeling, while providing light hydration.

Made from distilled flower hydrosols and pure spring water from the slopes of Hawaii’s Haleakala volcano, this refreshing tonic encourages cell growth and collagen production. Healing jasmine (often used as a mood elevator) and rose (a natural anti-inflammatory that helps to soothe and calm dry, sensitive skin) provide gentle moisture and balance to tired, irritated skin.

Organic Fragrance Mists :: A Bottle Of Olfactory Bliss.

Made with sustainably farmed ingredients grown exlusively in Hawaii, these Malie Organic Aroma Mists are to-die-for. The scents are all steam-distilled directly from indigenous plants and flowers to produce a hydrosol that is the very essence of the source. Plumeria smells exactly like burying your face in a franjipani bloom; the coconut is fresh; the vanilla is local and indigenous; mango nectar smells juicy and freshly peeled; Koke’e is straight out of the rain forest. Because the mists don’t contain any of the chemical binders that make the scent last a long time on your skin, you do have to spray more often. Small price to pay if you think about it for not spritzing yourself with endocrine disruptors and petrochemicals. Designed for use around the home, for freshening linens, and you. The best thing about them? You can spray liberally and often … DELICIOUS.

Glowing & Gorgeous In One Easy Step.

It’s a well-known fact that I’m an organic & natural beauty junkie, not to mention lip balm addict, scented candle guru, and total body polish freak. So how do you get glowing and gorgeous in one easy step? Body Polish, body scrubs, body exofliants! In my opinion body polish is underrated and under-appreciated as one of the great beauty products of all time.

Body polish or scrubs are usually comprised of sugar or salt grains (but there are various options available) and a gorgeous assortment of base oils, butters, flower essences, herbs and essential oils. By using a body exfoliant a few times a week you stimulate circulation, encourage cell renewal, get rid of toxins & dead skin cells, plus the grains buff your skin into super smooooooth. Organic oils and butters leave your skin ultra soft and glowing to the point where you don’t need moisturizer - and the whole thing happens in the shower in about 30 seconds flat - a bonus if you’re as time challenged as I am!

I have several favorites but this is one of my current obsessions - Lilikoi (passionfruit) & Lemongrass Body Polish from Malie. With organic virgin coconut oil, cocoa & mango butters, Lilikoi has a deliciously tart and delicate scent, while lemongrass has a bright citrus fragrance that’s full of life, zest and vitality. Let me tell you, these two scents will kick start your day faster than a double espresso! You’ll be uplifted, invigorated, exfoliated and softened all in a state of tropical bliss. Ahhhhhh … perfect for Summer. Writer :: Emma Pezzack - www.futurenatural.com: the best organic beauty products in the world.
