Cradle Cap and Nappy Rash

Medically called seborrheic dermatitis, this inflammatory condition’s cause is unknown although we know it has to do with exuberant production of oil which dries to form yellow, oily scales. Yucky! The scales plug the oil glands, stimulating them to produce even more oil. So rather than  picking off the flakes or vigorously rubbing the scalp, which can cause bleeding and irritation, try this simple and effective remedy! Massage the scalp and affected area with pure calendula oil. Leave for 30 minutes and gently wash off with a chemical free shampoo. Rinse and dry. Alternatively, use a salve made from chickweed […]

Here is the write up from the newsletter for those who missed it! “Hydrosols are the condensate water co-produced during the steam – or hydro-distillation of plant material for aroma-therapeutic purposes.” Hydrosols are also often described as ‘holograms’ of the plant – cool right? Hydrosols contain all of the plant in every drop just like a hologram. They contain all of the water-soluble components and all of the essential oil molecules; the very fluid that […]

We BARLEY get enough chlorophyll…here’s how to fix it!

Ok folks, we’re gonna get the science of this topic out of the way first… This sciencey illustration below shows the chemical composition of Chlorophyll and Hemin (whole blood).

Sodium Lauryl Sulphate – the hard facts!

As consumers, we need to ask ourselves whether the cosmetics and personal care products we and our families use every day are more important to us than our long term health. We also need to ask ourselves if there are products we can do without. Cutting down on the number of products we use and making our own chemical free products will reduce our exposure to toxins, save money and cut down on the amount of chemicals polluting the earth. Ingredients in cosmetics and personal care items are not subjected to stringent pre-market evaluations and processes. In fact cosmetic companies […]
