Parabens are known to disrupt hormone function, an effect that is linked to increased risk of breast cancer and reproductive toxicity. They are commonly found in moisturizers, makeup, shave gel, shampoo, personal lubricant & spray tan products.
My ALOEssentials non-toxic skincare products are completely FREE OF PARABENS and other harmful toxic chemicals. Instead they hydrate your skin and help to restore a youthful glow by nourishing and protecting the skin with pure aloe vera, natural fruit & vegetable extracts, premium essential oils and more!
The health benefits of tea tree oil date back for centuries where it was used to treat wounds & other skin conditions. Australian aboriginals used tea tree leaves for healing skin cuts, burns, & infections by crushing the leaves & applying them to the affected area. Tea tree oil contains constituents called terpenoids, which have been found to have antiseptic & antifungal activity.
People use tea tree oil for the following conditions:
My whole life I struggled with extremely sensitive and dry skin, as well as plaque psoriasis primarily on my elbows and parts of my hands. I tried countless lotions and creams on the market that actually made my skin even dryer and often inflamed my psoriasis. I had heard about the healing benefits of Aloe Vera for psoriasis and began experimenting. Using Aloe Vera as the main base in a cream would not only moisturize, but also hydrate and nourish the skin with a natural abundance of antioxidants, minerals, enzymes, and vitamins. My first successful creation, and the aloe vera cream that changed my life, was a Moisturizing Aloe Vera Body Cream scented with Tea Tree and Lemon essential oils, rather than scenting with toxic chemicals that would be sure to irritate my skin. I have since used this body cream every day, from head (yes my face too!) to toe, after my morning shower. I found that applying once a day was all I needed, which was another plus! My skin has never looked, felt, or actually been healthier in my life. For someone that breaks out in hives from the slightest skin irritation, that’s saying a lot.
I was so proud of this product and blown away by the results that I started making jars for all my friends and family. The feedback I received was incredible and I knew at that point I had something really special that I needed to share with the world.
The name was a no brainer…my ALOEssentials (Aloe Vera + Essential Oils): non-toxic, nourishing skin care products that are safe and effective for all skin types, ESPECIALLY dry and sensitive skin, like mine! All of the essential oils I use in my products are from Plant Therapy and are USDA certified organic. I now offer this amazing cream in Team Tree & Lemon, Sweet Orange, and Lavender scents. I am extremely proud of these products and have a lot of faith in them. I hope you agree! If you’re interested, you can shop my Aloe Vera Skin Care products in my Etsy store!
