For over a thousand years, Asian herbalists have noticed that Shiso plants have the ability to survive the most extreme droughts and climatic conditions, as well as helping the surrounding plants to grow. As a result, Shiso has become the jewel of Japanese culinary art as well as an important ingredient in macro biotic food because of its healing powers.
Shiso essential oils provide a strong taste whose intensity might be compared to that of mint. Shiso is rich in omega-3 fatty acid and alpha-linolenic acid with anti-inflammatory properties and is considered to help preserve and sterilize other foods.
In Japanese culinary, Shiso is served with sashimi (sliced raw fish) or cut into thin strips in salads, spaghetti, and meat dishes. It is also prepared as a flavorful herb in a variety of dishes, including Japanese pizza (Okonomiyaki) topping.
In Korean cuisine, Shiso is prepared for Kimchi due to its strong taste in leaves’ essential oils. Fresh leaves have an aroma reminiscent of apples and mint and are served in traditional Korean salad.
In Vietnam, Shiso is used as a decoration in rice vermicelli dishes called bun. Several parts of this plant are used for various purposes, not only its leaves. For examples, in Indonesia, Shiso seeds known as Selasih are often added to drinks. In China, Shiso is traditionally used in Chinese herbal medicine to stimulate interferon activity and help improve the body’s immune system.
Combining art and science, THANN’s research and development team have spent over thousand hours unlocking the miracle of Shiso. Shiso (Perilla Frutescences (L.) britton var.crispa Makino) leaf extract contains various substances including Rosemarinic acid, Linoleic acid, Glycoproteins, I-perillaldehyde and Phenol Compound with unique properties to protect and revive skin cells by providing anti-oxidant benefits that are more effective than any artificial anti-oxidant In the market

LL Magnetic Clay, Inc., creator of the Ancient Minerals topical magnesium product line, is pleased to announce the availability of Ancient Minerals Magnesium Gel Plus. After nearly 2 years of development, the gel form offers those with training in tissue manipulation as well as ordinary individuals a targeted method of delivering high amounts of pure magnesium ions directly into skin tissue.
There’s no doubt the body needs magnesium. Several hundred biochemical responses rely on this essential mineral in order to function properly. From helping to support a healthy immune system to regulating blood pressure and metabolizing energy, magnesium is essential to good health. Yet too many people don’t get enough from the foods they eat, resulting in a deficiency.
When supplemented via the skin, Ancient Minerals Magnesium Gel Plus restores cellular magnesium levels quickly. The gel helps in the relief of muscle spasms, sports pain and arthritis pain. The inclusion of certified organic aloe vera extract helps encourage healthy skin which in turn helps reduce scarring and the effects of aging. The gel also helps in healing various skin conditions including acne, psoriasis, eczema, and dermatitis, when applied on the skin.
Like other products in the Ancient Minerals magnesium product line, Magnesium Gel Plus derives its therapeutic healing qualities from 250-million-year-old naturally-occurring ultra pure magnesium chloride that is solution-mined from the ancient Zechstein Sea. When asked why the company goes to such depths for this important ingredient, Judy Phillips, President, explains, “Well protected for the last 250 million years, Ancient Minerals is the most pure naturally occurring magnesium chloride available in the world. This source has never been available until recently.”

As part of its new “information marketing” effort, Redu, Inc. is posting 5 Free Tips To Heal and Avoid Dry Skin on its new website www.SmoothnSilky.com. SmoothnSilky is their new, women’s skin care product they have positioned as a “dry skin miracle”, and it is especially formulated to heal chapped hands, cracked feet, rough elbows, and coarse knees overnight.
Michael Dugan, President of Redu, Inc., stated, “A marketing effort cannot be just sell, sell, sell anymore. What we want to do is provide information to women with dry skin, and let them make an educated and informed decision about SmoothnSilky. Of course, we want to sell product, but it is more important to position ourselves as a brand women can trust and believe in.”
At SmoothnSilky.com women can now find 5 tips that can help them repair their dry skin and keep it soft, healthy and touchable. This information may sound like common sense, but some of the tips may be surprising.
1. Take Warm Baths Never Hot
Everyone likes the soothing, relaxing feel of a nice hot bath, but it’s not good for your skin. The intense heat of a super hot shower or bath actually breaks down the lipid barrier in the skin which leads to a loss of moisture.
2. Use Sunscreen All Year Round
Just because it’s not hot does not mean the sun’s burning rays are not damaging your skin. Always apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen to your face and hands about 30-minutes before going outside, and don’t forget to reapply throughout the day.
3. Give Your Hands Extra Help
Your hands are very vulnerable to dry skin and even chapping, cracking, and getting rough. The reason is that they are exposed most of the time, and the skin on the hands is thinner than on most parts of the body and has fewer oil glands. The fact is, it is harder to keep the skin on your hands moist, and therefore, it is important to help that skin with a hydrating, moisturizing lotion, like SmoothnSilky.
4. Treat Your Feet With Special Care
Your feet can be one of the prettiest, softest areas of your body, but they take a pounding everyday. It is important to use a strong hydrating and moisturizing lotion on them in the morning and at night. Those water based, minty foot lotions may smell nice, but they evaporate quickly and do not help the skin on your feet hold in the moisture they need.
5. Moisturize Moisturize Moisturize
Ultimately, the way to heal and avoid dry skin is to keep your skin hydrated, moisturized, nourished, and healthy. Find a lotion that you love and apply it regularly several times a day, especially in troubled or at-risk areas like hands, feet, elbows, and knees.
For additional information on Redu, Inc., and SmoothnSilky contact, Michael Dugan, or visit: www.SmoothnSilky.com. Redu, Inc. is a research and development company created to seek, identify, and market high quality skin care products for men and women. It specializes in health and skin care products that specifically address difficult or unique challenges. SmoothnSilky is the first womens product introduced by Redu, Inc., and it is so good at healing and preventing dry skin that Redu, Inc., has already exceeded its sales goals for the product introduction.

Belletaré, a natural and organic, high-performance skincare company, has launched its first three product lines, designed especially for people seeking purity and performance for their skin. In stark contrast to conventional cosmetics, each product is all-natural, cruelty-free and features superior certified organic ingredients from around the world. Belletaré products are now available for purchase online at www.Belletare.com, starting at just $3.
Inspired by her hobby-turned-passion for producing custom cosmetics for friends and family, entrepreneur Kim Nolan launched the company to create high-performance products made from only the purest ingredients. “Women today should not have to choose between luxury, performance and organic,” said Nolan. “The Belletaré line features high-performance products that flawlessly target the effects of aging, sun, even pollution. They also happen to be all-natural and organic.”
Nolan recognizes today’s consumers are trading their luxury beauty routines with more affordable alternatives, and maintains that Belletaré provides affordable indulgences for even the most cost-conscious consumers.
“People may be giving up spa sessions and expensive salon treatments, but they can still afford to pamper themselves at home with quality products that will make them feel great,” said Nolan. “Belletaré offers luxurious skincare products with all-natural, certified-organic ingredients from around the world without the hefty salon price tag.”
Consumer Demand For Organic Beauty Grows Sharply
Belletaré enters the market at a time when skincare is quickly changing, and more consumers are seeking organic, environmentally friendly products. According to researcher Organic Monitor, consumer interest in organic products is rising as they become more aware of the possible dangers of synthetic chemicals in cosmetics and toiletries. To serve the growing demand for high-performance organic products, Belletaré uses only the finest all-natural ingredients.
“Consumers are searching for products without fillers, synthetic fragrances, petro-chemicals or anything toxic, and Belletaré delivers on that promise,” said Nolan. “Instead, we fill our products with powerful antioxidants, botanical extracts and vitamins that are carefully selected to support skin health and counteract the negative effects of aging and environmental stressors like sun and pollution.”
In addition to its commitment to natural and organic purity, Belletaré adheres to environmentally and socially responsible business practices, including the use of recyclable, reusable packaging for all products.
