PRODUCT REVIEW: Dead Sea Mud Mask Mineral Youth by Maple Holistics



I've used this Dead Sea mask twice so far, and I have to say, I'm kinda hooked on it! :)

It does not have a bad odor, it goes on smooth, dries completely in about 15 minutes, and washes off very easily. My skin was very smooth afterward. 

I recommend this product to anyone who loves to do masks!

My Rating: A

Formula and Benefits

Pure Dead Sea Mud: The Dead Sea in Israel is the most saline body of water in the world, with a mineral concentration of approximately 32% (Ben Gurion University, Dead Sea Research Center). Mud from the Dead Sea has a high content level of salts and minerals that are claimed to be essential for the face and body.
German Chamomile: Known to be nature’s most effective anti-inflammatory, German Chamomile is naturally rejuvenating and helps reduce inflammation. German Chamomile also contains traces of lithium to assist in calming the nerves and reducing stress.
Lavender: This highly popular oil in the world of aromatherapy contributes compounds which work well with the minerals of the mud and helps attain maximum absorption.
Green Myrtle: This valuable asset oil is reputed to be the single most effective essential oil against oily skin. Many skincare products skip over this ingredient due to its high production costs; this formula does not compromise for any cheaper and less effective alternatives.
Clary Sage: The aromatherapy aspect is heightened with the addition of Clary Sage, which helps deliver an herbaceous and relaxing scent while complementing the positive benefits on facial skin.

Biodeynes EMPP: The extracellular matrix of human skin is comprised of collagens and elastic fibers, the latter of which elasticin is a primary component. This beneficial ingredient promotes collagen and elasticin in the skin, for loss of elasticity in the skin causes sagginess and wrinkles.

PRODUCT REVIEW: Apothecary Extracts 100% Pure Australian Tea Tree Oil (CONTEST CLOSED)




I am a big lover of essential oils, but my all-time favorite is the Tea Tree Oil. It can be used for almost anything! Cleaning your home, cleaning your face, as an inhalant in steam for sinus problems, and so much more! This comes in a huge bottle! It will last you a very long time!

It's anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory, anti-everything-that's bad-for-you! HAHA! ;)

As you can see from their well-scripted labeling below, they give you suggestions on how it's used and not used. And if you are a first-time user, mix it with a carrier oil, like an olive oil, coconut oil, etc. until your body gets used to it. And it does have an odor but it is not overwhelming. Do not use near your eyes, it is an aroma. 

Tea Tree Oil is taken from a tree by 'sweating' the leaves, not cutting down the tree and destroying the forest.

Do not hesitate to buy this wonderful addition to your home and personal routine!
