Facial treatments, unless part of our daily beauty routine, are often overlooked. Most of us barely have time to floss let alone apply a mask and put our feet up for the suggested 10-15 minutes. Even if we do have the time, the thought of a putting on a facial mask is not what comes to mind.
Last night, as I was digging through my basket of samples and forgotten purchases I stumbled across a clay mask I was sent a few months ago, and figured “why not?”. After rinsing the mask off and peering at my fresh, glowing skin in the mirror, I remembered why I used to make time for these things.

If you, like many, are beginning to see the signs of aging on your skin but still want products gentle enough for sensitive skin, Organic Apoteke may be just what you have been looking for.
Organic Apoteke Rejuvenating line is specifically designed for sensitive and mature skin. Made with Organic Rose oil, antioxidants and vitamins, these products combine the perfect ingredients for tending to delicate skin while helping to diminish signs of aging. The brand also touts a blush-inducing nutrient complex said to leave your skin aglow. Of course, I had to try it.
The cleanser was mild and gentle and left my skin feeling, well… cleansed, and the toner was light and not at all harsh. But I must admit I was skeptical of the moisturizer. It was a different consistency than most moisturizers for sensitive skin and didn’t seem like it could possibly be very hydrating. Well, my doubt was (thankfully) proved wrong when my skin was left soft and supple, yet definitely not greasy, and remained so all night. The best part of all; my skin had a nice glow to it, which is not unusual after cleansing and moisturizing, but what is unusual — the glow was still there in the morning! Something we all want, especially this time of year.

Recently featured on MSNBC, model and student of art & cosmetology, Spirit Demerson has long been concerned about the environment and interested in beauty. She used to concoct her own natural fragrances, lotions & scrubs in her kitchen and she’s been the “go-to” beauty girl in her circle of friends, family & colleagues for years. Frusterated about having to send them in a dozen different directions, she decided to open up shop online. After years of research (and obsession) her dream of opening her very own “beauty lounge” came to fruition last month.
