After the Holiday Season’s festivities many people notice that their indulgence in the temptations of food and drink, has taken a toll on their energy and physical appearance. Along with the dryness of winter climate’s air, water and indoor heating one can’t miss that their skin now wants special pampering for renewal. All of this serves as motivation for making New Year’s resolutions for self-care. New Year’s resolutions come and go, but one that has stood the test of time and drives all the others is Self-Care. By taking care of oneself FIRST it’s then possible to focus on relationships and on goal achievement.

"The harsh chemicals in many beauty products are unknowingly absorbed into the skin and ultimately can travel through the body by way of the circulatory system. Consumers are beginning to realize that safe skin care is as important to their well-being as the food they eat.” says Garden of Eve founder and health consultant Eve Stahl. “With some skin care ingredients being linked to kidney or liver damage and other severe problems, there is great importance in having alternative options for women and men who want to maintain an all-around healthy lifestyle.

It’s well known that the skin is the first line of defense against all elements, such as microorganisms, wind, and pollutants. Its “acid mantle,” provides a barrier function against harmful substances in the environment. Additionally it should protect us from the harmful ingredients used in some skin care products. However, penetration enhancer ingredients are used to overcome the body’s natural defense mechanism. Those armed with the latest in skin care research and products that are proven by hard data to be pure, do have a fighting chance. The secret weapon of a wise consumer is to be an educated consumer.

Fortunately, now there’s an online database where consumers can go to see first-hand what kind of harmful substances might be in their favorite face cream or suntan lotion. The “Skin Deepdatabase provides all the information that consumers need to make informed decisions about their skin care products. The database was created in response to the Environmental Working Group (EWG), findings that more than 750 personal care products that are sold in the U.S. violate industry safety or cosmetic safety standards in other industrialized countries, according to the EWG in a 2007 letter to the FDA. For those in the know, there are safe alternatives.

Enter Garden of Eve products, made for both men and women and ranging in scope from cleansers to moisturizer creams. Eve’s products provide a natural alternative to other brands and are made with organic and wild crafted extracts and essential oils of herbs and exotic flowers that naturally replenish the skin.
