Firstly, thank you for the overwhelming response to be testers. Its nice to know that so many people trust me enough to try my products. As luck would have it, I have 9 pots available and 9 people interested in testing.
So to get things started I am going to offer two samples:
1. Yellow clay mask with rosemary and lemongrass essential oil.
Yellow French Argiletz clay is a high quality pure clay that is suitable for most skin types. It draws out the oil and impurities in your skin but is milder than its well known green cousin. Rosemary essential oil can improve blood circulation and decongest the skin while lemongrass essential oil has antiseptic properties and can open blocked pores and tone the skin. Both have energising scents and will leave you and your skin feeling good. I have also added a touch of avocado oil which is naturally rich in vitamins and minerals and suitable for oily skin so it will help moisturise and protect while the clay works its wonders.
I used this mask the other night on my skin that had suddenly broken out quite badly. The next day the inflammation was gone and my skin felt much cleaner. I am really impressed with this mask's deep cleaning abilities.
Ingredients: Yellow French Argiletz clay, water, avocado oil, rosemary essential oil, lemongrass essential oil, preservative.
Suggested use: up to 2 times a week. I like to use a mask on a Sunday and Wed/Thurs night as it seems those times are when my skin really needs attention.
Cost: $1.50
2. Rosemary and lavender face cream.
This face cream is a combination of water and sweet almond oil. Sweet almond is an extremely light oil, full of vitamins and essential fatty acids, that is readily absorbed by the skin. It can help relieve irritation and is tolerated by oily skin types. I have also added vegetable glycerin to the cream, which assists in retaining moisture on the skin.
I know when most people think of lavender they conjure up images of their Aunty June who lives in a house full of floral pillow cases and scented drawer inserts. But lavender has a whole range of fantastic qualities that shouldn't only be reserved for your grandma. First and foremost lavender is a potent calmative, the scent of lavender will relax your body and your mind. Its a very well known cure for sleeplessness. It also has strong antiseptic qualities and can help your skin heal faster, with less scarring. Lavender oil can balance the skin and has soothing anti-inflammatory properties. I could go on, but take my word for it, lavender is an oil you won't regret putting on your skin.
To balance it out I have added rosemary essential oil, with its energising and skin decongesting properties. This combination will calm your mind but keep you alert at the same time, all while keeping your skin healthy and happy.
Ingredients: Water, sweet almond oil, emulsifying wax, vegetable glycerin, grapefruit seed extract, lavender essential oil, rosemary essential oil, preservative.
Suggested use: Whenever you want! This cream is light and easily absorbed and the essential oils will pick you up and calm you down. Great for stress and mental fatigue. The lavender may even help you sleep easier. This cream spreads very well, so you only need to use a small amount at a time to get good coverage.
Cost: $1.00
Have I convinced you that you really want to try both? Well you are quite welcome to. However, right now I only have enough pots for one sample each. I will be putting in an order for some more pots next week tho so assign a preference for one now and I'll let everyone know when more pots arrive. I also have a order arriving next week with a bunch of new oils so I should have some more ideas soon.
Shayna, you're welcome to both if you'd like. I think I can fit 4 pots into a small post pack and postage looks like it'll cost about $5 all up. I have a few other ideas on the way so to save on postage I might hold off for another week or so before I send yours.
Is there a time next weekend that everyone can get together to receive their first sample? Amanda, I know your house gets used for everything, but you do have a nice space for get-togethers. Do you mind if we congregate at your place? Any suggestions are welcome. I appear to have no plans but I don't keep up with all the social gatherings.
