Creme of Nature has developed another line of unique moisture-enriched products to help keep women looking good - Creme of Nature Nourishing Body Lotion. In addition to a roster of proven shampoos, conditioners, relaxers, and hair color, the brand’s new body lotions deeply moisturize and are available in three invigorating scents.
“Creme of Nature is a long-standing, ‘living’ brand that speaks to more than just hair care,” said Anthony Standifer, brand manager, Creme of Nature Retail. “Our customers have distinct needs and the new lotions are great for addressing those needs. Like our hair care line, the ingredients in the lotion prove to nourish and help restore skin.”
The collection is formulated with natural ingredients that deliver ultimate moisture, which is important to African-American women. The lotions are available in the following scents:
- African Violet and Chamomile act as protective emollients to soothe, calm and soften skin.
- Olive Oil and Lemon Zest protect and revitalize dull skin, giving it an all-over moisture enriched glow.
- Sweet Mandarin and Lemongrass heal and help rejuvenate skin.
Creme of Nature is best known for featuring natural ingredients in its hair care products. The natural ingredients in the lotions are essential to hydrating the special needs of ethnic skin. The lotion comes at a time when natural ingredients are being sought after and requested by consumers. “We’ve asked consumers about the types of products they expect from our brand, so skin care is a natural transition,” said Standifer.
Creme of Nature Nourishing Body Lotion will be available in beauty and barber supply stores in January 2010. For more information about Creme of Nature, please visit www.cremeofnature.com.

Swell Skin llc has learned of and identified a formulation that intuitively understands the delicate balance of the facial skin’s exposure to bacteria, acne and aging and has products that read the skin’s daily needs and adjust accordingly.
“After 20 years of product and prescription trials, I finally have products that actually work,” according to Kelli Klus, president of Swell Skin at www.swellskin.net. Swell Skin products improve acne, rosacea, dermatitis while improving skin tone and fine lines without the use of harsh chemicals or prescription drugs. The uniqueness of the line is that only two simple products are needed to get and maintain gorgeous skin whether male, female, sixteen or sixty, regardless of skin type. The products require no special instructions or complicated steps and are immediately effective.
“I don’t know anyone on this planet who does not have issues with their facial skin from time to time. People need to be aware that there are smaller, unknown companies making great strides in helping people battle their bad skin days. We don’t have the budget that ProActive does, but we have a product that works better and is less expensive. Help us get the word out, please.”
Swell products will be featured in VIP gift bags at the Tavern on the Green New Year’s Eve gala 2009.
The Sea Buckthorn Plant.
The secret is the Sea Buckthorn berry; known as “the most healing berry of all time.”
The oil of the Sea Buckthorn plant has 22 fatty acids, 42 kinds of lipids, 190 varieties of bioactive substances and 36 kinds of flavonoids. Additionally it has the most carotenoids, tocopherols and phylloquinone of any plant in existence. It is the only plant in the world known to contain essential fatty acids 3, 6, 7 and 9.
With a fascinating history of healing dating back to the eighth century, thirty chapters of the Sibu Yidian (the classic Tibetan medical book) are devoted to the wonders of Sea Buckthorn.
In fact the healing properties of the plant are so numerous and unique that it is assumed to have been created by an ancient Tibetan plant breeder. “A plant of this magnitude could not have existed in nature, for it is too perfect”. According to Kelli “It’s anti-bacterial properties have given my clients, the clearest skin imaginable.”
Only Two Products from Now On.
Swell Face Treatment’s usage couldn’t be simpler; there are no steps 1, 2 and 3. “Just wash your face with the soap every night and if your having a bad skin day leave the soap on for two minutes.” Wash and wait. Compare costs and complicated directions to the leading skin treatments. Cost is $25 for a 3.3 oz. bar. The special formulation of the bar soap will last well into the year.
Swell Oil of Sea Buckthorn. The Sea Buckthorn oil comes in a medicinal dropper bottle. Place drops of oil directly on pimples, rashes, anywhere that the skin has issues. “ I put the oil on my lines and with time they eventually plump from the intense moisture release. Additionally, when I put the oil directly on the pimple after washing with soap, the next morning I see a 90% improvement.” Cost is $17 for a 1/2 oz. bottle. Both can be purchased in the Swell-Union package for $37.
Other Interesting Tidbits.
A percentage of Swell Skin’s profits will be donated to help abused children (the worst offense in the history of mankind) Check out the packaging for inspiring thoughts.

Just when you thought all your herbs and spices were free of hidden sugars, look again.
I’m livid. I just found sugar where I never would have dreamed it would be: in pepper. Garlic pepper, to be exact. My husband buys our spices and experiments with them nightly. Our homemade pasta sauces are spicy and exquisite. Garlic pepper just happens to be one of the organic, high quality spices he brought home months ago. I’ve been using it regularly on my homemade sweet potato fries. I learned a long time ago to check the ingredients of salt, but it never occurred to me to look at the ingredients of pepper.
Last night I doctored up my batch of sweet potato fries with garlic pepper and noticed strange clumps of pepper. I wondered if this “fresh” brand of garlic pepper goes bad quickly. Then I noticed a tiny dried, green herb that I had not noticed before. That was a surprise. I had never looked closely at the bottle of garlic pepper before, but when I did I noticed a lot of the dried green herb. Funny, the bottle was just labled, “Garlic Pepper”. When I examined the bottle for an ingredients list, I discovered this:
Ingredients: organic garlic, spices (organic black pepper and organic parsley), sea salt, organic onion, organic cane sugar, silicon dioxide (an anti-caking agent).
The product brand is called “Simply Organic” and the company is one of my favorite organic spice suppliers, Frontier. This company supplies many health food stores with their supply of bulk herbs and spices.
As has happened before over the last two years, my heart sank. Not only have I been eating it, it is a sad reminder that nothing is exempt from the possibility of having sugar added to it. Now when Jeff and I look for spices, we will have to bring a magnifying glass to read the tiny ingredients on each bottle.
Not only is this a tedious task (reading the labels on every grocery purchase can literally take hours) but this indicates a scary trend. It seems like every company recognizes the “value” of adding sugar to its products–it will taste better than its competitor’s product. Organic, “high quality”, expensive brands are apparently not exempt from lowering their standards to include sugar. If someone wants to add a sweetener to their food, it should be their choice. We should not have to strain our eyes for hidden sugars where they might be sneaked in.

A bad hair day should worry guys. A recent survey by AXE of more than 2,000 girls finds that three in four (74%) say hair ranks among the first things they notice about a guy. But AXE, the leader in men’s grooming, provides the solution – five shampoos and one conditioner for a clean look she’ll notice and soft, touchable hair; and five styling products to choose from to give them an edge in the mating game.
To help guys gain girl-approved hair, celebrity stylist Joey Nieves offers his top tips for avoiding common hair errors. As the celebrity stylist to some of the top stars in the music business, Nieves knows guys have specific hair problems. Their scalps tend to be oilier and they sweat more than girls, leading to different shampoo needs. Guys also commit specific hair styling errors – think gunky, crunchy, poufy, flaky—that turn girls off. AXE Hair was created specifically to alleviate these problems.
“Guys have shorter hair that needs a stronger holding product to provide style, but you don’t want too much hold that leaves hair crunchy or stiff,” advises Nieves. “Guys also tend to use their fingers rather than a comb or brush to style and restyle their hair. AXE Hair products let guys handle that easily. And because AXE Hair holds without all the hard gel, girls will find their guy’s hair soft and touchable.”
Here are a few of Joey’s top hair tips for guys:
Scrub Hair Clean for a Fresh Start: Guys should shampoo and condition their hair every day. If they don’t wash their hair every day, but do reapply hairstyling products every morning, they risk overloading their hair with products. Their scalp won’t “breathe.”
- If they suffer from hard, crusty, over-gelled hair, a definite turn-off for girls, they should try AXE Deep Clean Shampoo + Hair Scrub. If features rock crystals and removes the gunky product build-up and oil blocking guys’ game.
- If you use a lot of product in your hair, chances are your hair may be dry, coarse and brittle. You simply cannot over-condition curly hair, and using AXE: Just Soft Conditioner leaves hair soft and touchable. Many guys think using conditioner is just a girl-thing. But as men’s scalp and hair differ from women’s, using a women’s product isn’t recommended.
- For everyday care, keep things simple with one cool product such as AXE 2 in 1 Shampoo + Conditioner. It’s great for a home shower or to carry in the gym bag!
Find Your Girl-Approved Look: A guys’ hair should fit his lifestyle and personality. Whether you want a no-fuss style or a look that unleashes your creativity and gets the right girl in your life excited about your hair, achieving a terrific end look is all about finding the right styling product and having proper communication with your barber or hairstylist.
- Before getting a new haircut, consult with your barber or stylist to craft a look that works with your face shape, hair type, hair texture and lifestyle.
- While the right cut is the first step to a stylish look, being informed about hair maintenance and the right styling products will take any look to a an entirely new irresistible level.
o Check out the full line of shampoos, conditioners and styling products from AXE Hair designed specifically to create hair that guys want and girls love.
o Remember: Hair is one of the most important contributors to your image, and the right style and products will have girls begging to run their fingers through it.
Style the Versatile Fringe: Guys looking for a new style should try the Fringe, keeping their hair longer on top, shorter on the sides – that cut will offer some of the most versatile and fun looks. While the fringe is cut to bring hair from the temples and crown toward the forehead, the overall effect depends largely on using the right styling product to create a rugged texture. It can look sophisticated when smoothed down and fun when spiked up.
- For a sophisticated look, use AXE Smooth & Sophisticated Look Shine Pomade that gives long-lasting shine and control for a smooth, polished look.
- For a spiked-up style, use a product such as AXE Spiked-Up Look Putty that gives your hair hold without all the hard crunch of gel.
- Whether you use a straightening iron or enjoy naturally straight hair, a great guy fringe is all about texture. To achieve that stylish forward fringe, the AXE Messy Look Paste gives hair a messy, just-out-of-bed look she’ll want to run her hands through.
Condition Your Curls: Some guys feel like they’re fighting a losing battle when combating the frizz, high-volume and general wildness associated with curly hair, but when cared for properly, it can be their most striking feature!
- To start, use a scalp-friendly shampoo and conditioner designed for men like AXE Hair Clean and Control 2 in 1 Shampoo + Conditioner. It features a hydrating Kukui blend that cleans and keeps guys’ hair under control. A luscious head of curly locks definitely can prove a head turner for girls.
