What is Hyaluronic Acid?

Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring polysaccharide (carbohydrate) in the human body. It’s present in large amounts in the spaces between skin cells, where it provides moisture, plumpness, firmness and suppleness to the skin.Hyaluronic acid isn’t harsh or skin-stripping at all. In fact, it’s the exact opposite – a powerful humectant (aka moisture-binding ingredient) that keeps skin plump and hydrated and, yes, young-looking. The other way to help plump up skin is to use a serum or moisturizer that contains hyaluronic acid. See our lotions here.  While it won’t give you the dramatic, instantaneous results that a hyaluronic acid filler can, you will see benefits in the form of softer, smoother, more hydrated skin.

Natural Handmade Versus Store Bought Lotions

Many commercially produced body lotions contain alcohol, which dries the skin, while body lotions are supposed to do something quite the opposite: keep it moisturized!  visit our website for more . Designed to have a long shelf-life, these products are often stuffed with artificial preservatives that do nothing good for your skin. Among the most commonly used preservatives are parabens. According to some researchers, these substances can be a cause of concern; some even link using paraben-containing products to cases of breast cancer and other adverse health effects. Traces of parabens have been detected in the blood of people a few hours after application of paraben-containing lotions on their skin. Before more scientific evidence emerges through further research, some health experts suggest caution when using skincare products that contain parabens. So, do you really want to pay your hard earned money for a mixture of cheap fillers and chemicals? I guess not. If you really care about your skin, use natural and organic body lotions! You do not have to pay companies for fancy packaging, branding and advertising. Instead, you can invest your money in high quality, natural ingredients! visit our website  .

Why Try Luxuriously Natural Lotions?

Our natural body lotions view our store offer plenty of benefits to the skin and general health.  We make our products with natural ingredients, free from artificial preservatives and enhancers, these products improve the skin condition by:

-Moisturizing & Hydrating  Every day our skin gets exposed to harmful elements, such as sun, wind, or environmental pollution, which dehydrates it. Spending time in overheated spaces can also dry the skin, making it looking tired and flaked. Body lotions based on high quality ingredients, such as Shea Butter, olive, coconut, or almond oil penetrate deep into the skin, leaving it re-hydrated and rejuvenated.

-Improving blood circulation  Massaging body lotions into the skin improves local blood and lymph circulation. As both blood and lymph carry and delivers important micro elements to the skin cells, the process leaves the skin well-nourished and healthier.

-Protecting against ageing  Natural ingredients used in body lotions are often reservoirs of anti-aging elements. For example: coconut oil is full of vitamin E, known as the vitamin of youth, protecting the skin against free radicals and formation of wrinkles. Essential oils used in making natural body lotions, such as frankincense, also display anti-wrinkle properties.

-Stimulating regeneration Body lotions based on herbal extracts (such as Echinacea) can stimulate the skin regeneration processes. Applying body lotion on the skin can be very relaxing and therapeutic. Carefully selected aroma composition can positively affect your mind, either by stimulation, or the opposite: calm your senses, remove stress and restlessness.  view our store  http://lnsoaps.com or our facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/luxnatsoap

Luscious Bath Bombs and Fizzies

Bath Bombs

Bath bombs can be used for therapeutic purposes because they can contain essential oils which give various benefits.

Bath bombs usually contain essential oils. Some contain other additives like sea salt for added cleansing effect. Due to the nature of the additives used in creating these fancy little balls, bath bombs are commonly used for therapeutic purposes. The following are some essential oils commonly used in making bath bombs and their effects:

§ Lavender oil to help bathers relax, calm down or get rid of stress.

§ Sweet almond oil or sunflower oil to help moisturize the skin.

§ Avocado oil or wheat germ oil to heal and sooth damaged skin.

Bath fizzies or bath bombs can serve as inexpensive gifts for people who need to be pampered, or who need a calming or invigorating soak. They can also be used to make bath time fun for kids because the bath bombs would swirl, twirl and spin around in the bath tub while releasing that fizzing sound and its skin softening oils.

Yes, bath bombs can be used even by kids because they contain essential oils that can rejuvenate the skin and leave it feeling soft. In fact, it might even be better for them since most bath salts or bubble baths in the market contain synthetic oils and chemicals that do nothing to keep their young skin healthy.  Shop here for our bath bombs and fizzies
