BEAUTY TIP – FOR YOUR HAIR
The following is a list of products to try as a final rinse after you shampoo. Rinse your hair with the coolest water you can stand for at least one full minute after using these rinses. Each recipe makes enough for one application.
Lemon juice: The juice of 1 lemon mixed with 1 cup water brings back life & shine to dull hair. Baking soda: 1 tablespoon baking soda mixed with 1 cup water removes hair spray & gel residue. Apple cider vinegar: 1/2 cup vinegar mixed with 2 cups water gives your hair shine & bounce.
NATURAL VERSUS NATURAL
There are two definitions of the word natural:
The dictionary definition: “Existing in or, formed by, nature”.
The cosmetic industry definition: “Any ingredient derived from a natural substance”.
Mineral Oil
Petroleum by-product that coats the skin like plastic, clogging the pores. Interferes with skin’s ability to eliminate toxins, promoting acne & other disorders. Slows down skin function & cell development, resulting in premature aging. Used in many products (baby oil is 100% mineral oil) Any mineral oil derivative can be contaminated with cancer causing PAH’s (Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons). Manufacturers use petrolatum because it is unbelievably cheap.

Hello again to our regular readers and welcome to those reading for the very first time. I hope you enjoy our regular newsletters.
We appreciate your comments, and ideas. Let us know if you have a beauty tip that you would like to share, or give us your feedback about your Heaven’n’Earth experience or what you think of our new skin care.
OUR PRODUCT OF THE WEEK
For the next few weeks, I will be highlighting a product from our new totally natural skin care range. There are no chemicals or synthetics at all in our products. I use organic when I can and they are all hand blended here at Heaven’n’Earth.
CLEANSERS
Your skin naturally produces oil for the benefit of your skin. These natural oils help lubricate, heal, protect, and moisturise your skin so that it may function properly. Our cleansing oil massaged on your skin will dissolve the oil that has hardened with impurities and blocked your pores, without causing over-stimulation of sebaceous glands or drying the skin. Cleansing is only needed at night and contributes towards the nourishing and balancing benefits of your night treatment. Designed to use as an eye makeup removal cleanser.
Available for sensitive, normal, dry or mature & for oily, acne or combination skins.
For any other skin needs, we can blend a cleanser for you.
BEAUTY TIP
Heaven’s cleansing oil softens & dissolves blackheads, & balances sebaceous glands. Perfect for skins that suffer from periodic breakouts.
Drinking plenty of water helps to remove toxins & keep your skin looking fresh & healthy.
QUOTE OF THE WEEK
Beauty is reflected from the way we are feeling & living our lives. I have found a mountain of fabulous “feel good” quotes for you. Here the first one…

I recently received an e-newsletter saying that it was “less than 9 weeks until Christmas” ! Panic sets in. How did that happen? My Christmas shopping has now started, so I thought that I could help you out by extending the expiry date on all of Heaven’n’Earth’s Christmas Gift Vouchers to the end of March 2009. Our customised Vouchers are presented in a Christmas envelope adorned with a Christmas candy cane & ribbon. Easy… & a lovely pampering gift for your loved ones.

Treatment for Dark Under Eye Circles
Grated potatoes can lighten under-eye circles. Potatoes contain an enzyme called catecholase, which is used in cosmetics as a skin lightener. Run one raw potato through your food processor & place into a piece of cheesecloth. Apply to the area directly beneath your eye, being careful not to let the potato juice come in contact with the eye itself. Leave for 15 to 20 minutes. Wipe away the starchy residue.
OIL OF THE WEEK – Arnica Oil

NEW TO HEAVEN
Zen is a combination of traditional Chinese & Western herbs used for centuries for the relief of joint & muscle pain & the treatment of traumatic injuries. The herbs are specially prepared with essential oils to enhance the analgesic action.
ZEN works by:
· Relieving Pain
· Improving Blood Circulation
· Reducing Inflammation
· Promoting the repair of Bones, Sinews and Muscles
Special Qualities:
ZEN is non oily, pure & volatile. It penetrates quickly with no rubbing needed. The herbs in ZEN are traditionally used in the treatment of muscular skeletal injuries to nourish the underlying damaged bone, sinew & muscle promoting repair as well as relieving pain.
What is so different about ZEN?
ZEN Therapeutic Tincture is a natural medicine applied externally to treat muscle & joint injuries & pain. It is not a cheap synthetic chemical rub. What we apply to our skin is absorbed into our blood.
ZEN is a high quality natural medicine. The 10 herbs & oils used in ZEN have been used for hundreds of years by millions of people around the world to relieve pain & treat sporting injuries.
