Eminence Organic Skin Care – Nature’s Bounty in a Jar
By Tami Yu
The skin care world is forever inundated with ‘natural’ lines promising the latest fountain of youth. For us busy gals, we usually don’t take the time to find out what this really means. While many brands contain ingredients that are labeled organic, you might sometimes wonder what else is lurking underneath that long list of chemical names. For those who are worried about the harmful long-term effects of chemical absorption, Eminence Organic Skin Care of Hungary is a comprehensive line that I highly recommend.
With 48+ years of research, this is one of the few lines that’s totally organic and completely natural. Handmade weekly in small batches, it’s the closest thing to slathering a fresh fruit smoothie (or a nutritious salad) on your face. With a shelf life of only one year, this brand doesn’t contain any chemical preservatives or animal by-products (Attention vegans – they do use honey).
Many products are infused with their trademark Biocomplex, a highly concentrated anti-aging serum with Vitamins A, C, and E. In conjunction with Co-enzyme Q10 and Alpha Lipoic Acid, it’s a super antioxidant boost to enhance the efficacy of the already-potent formulations.
Here’s a roundup of my favorite items – most of these are suitable for many skin types, so feel free to experiment away:
The Sweet Red Rose Cleanser is a fragrant, mild cleansing milk that isn’t too creamy. Hydrating your skin, you’ll feel like you’ve been showered with a fresh bouquet of roses. Follow this with the Wild Plum Tonique, which will oxygenize your skin with iron and vitamins. It can also double as a fruity hydrosol to melt away your stress.
Touted as the organic face lift, the Eight Greens Youth Serum can be used by itself for oilier skin, or layered underneath a moisturizer. With its calming lavender scent, it’s a powerhouse of phyto-estrogens to tighten skin tone and reverse collagen loss.
An all-time bestseller, the healing Stone Crop Masque is truly a phenomenal product by itself. A wonder succulent, it’s an intense moisturizer that’s very effective in fading blemishes and lightening pigmentation. Paired with the Stone Crop Whip Moisturizer, you’re guaranteed a brighter complexion, fewer age spots and reduced sun damage.
Perfect for hormonal imbalances, the Eight Greens Whip Moisturizer is great for breakouts and menopausal skin. An effective firming treatment, it contains yucca, algae and flax seed to fix saggy areas. What a wonder cream! The anti-aging Eight Greens Phyto Masque is ideally used with this, eliminating adult acne. With potent plants and seeds, this will tingle for a few minutes, and your skin might be red for a couple hours (totally normal).
The Naseberry Treatment Cream is an incredible product to erase fine lines. Smelling like tropical fruit pastilles, it acts as a mild glycolic peel without any harsh side effects (3% fruit acids). Absolutely wonderful as a winter or summer cream, you can thin the texture out by adding a few drops of water. If you can’t buy everything (you’ll really want to though!), I’d recommend this one for sure.
For body care, get the Stone Crop Body Lotion. It absorbs instantly, so you don’t have to wait for it to soak in. Used over time, it can lighten up freckles and years of sun damage. Like all Eminence products, a little goes a long way, so no need to slather it on.
So many mouth-watering and healthy things to try, so little time. There’s something for every imaginable type of skin condition (with over 50 items to choose from!), so go to your nearest spa and check it out!
