At Simply
Natural we use natural oils and fruit extracts to manufacture our
high-quality skin care products. These products have both anti-aging and
healing qualities as well as being a natural moisturiser. Most of our
raw materials are obtained from certified organic cultivation sources.
Read the
ingredients page to learn the benefits of the ingredients in our skin
care range. Shea Butter, coconut oil, jojoba oil and grapeseed oil are
used in many of our products because of their benefits for the whole
body.
Mankind has always used milks,
fruits and natural sugars to enhance their beauty. Cleopatra introduced
bathing in sour milk to the women of Egypt, and their desert-parched
skin became soft, supple, and more youthful-looking. Marie Antoinette
encouraged her court of beauties to rinse daily with the sediment left
at the bottom of wine vats to soften and bring a glow to the skin. In
Spain and England women washed their faces with the juice of lemons to
even out discoloration in Polynesia women rubbed the sweet juice of the
sugar cane plant on their bodies to assure smooth lustrous skin ….
and
in Africa Shea Butter from the Karite plant has been used for over 2000
years.
Unfortunately, the modern skin care industry has succumbed to the use of
chemical bases and mineral oils that are easy to handle, that extend
shelf life for years and that give creams a brilliantly white
appearance. As a result, we see an ever growing number of allergies and
skin diseases.
