Goat Milk Skin Care

What You Should Know About Healthy Skin Care

2012-03-08T11:44:00.001-08:00

The next time someone tries to sell you some miracle product, ask about the ingredients and research them if you don't know what they are or what their benefits are. Stay away from the sites that say things like "well you can use that to wax your car". Guess what? Carnauba wax can be used to wax your car real nice even though it's also a plant wax and perfectly fine for the skin.

Look for a company that uses as many natural ingredients as possible. Contrary to some people might say, you don't need 100% natural, all the time. Using a "quality" high percent natural product is good as well. After all, some synthetic ingredients such as responsibly-chosen preservatives are a necessary evil in many cases and add the shelf life we need to protect us from harmful molds, fungi and bacteria (we suggest staying away from the controversial parabens and formaldehyde releasers).

Most preservatives are used at less than 1% in many cases and if the rest of the product is pretty natural then that is a good thing. Also beware of companies touting "all natural" lotions and creams with a shelf life of more than a few weeks left in the fridge. Grapefruit seed extract is most often adulterated with harmful synthetic preservatives and should be avoided. If it is working, then chances are it contains one of the synthetic preservatives mentioned in the article.

Also, beware of products containing lots of "extracts" as many of these also contain synthetic preservatives that are not listed on the label. The nasty tricks people play. We tell our customers that if it contains a liquid such as water, milk, aloe vera, carrot juice, etc. then it MUST contain a preservative if it is to have a shelf life of any kind. If "so called" natural preservatives worked that well don't you think EVERYONE would be using them?

Beware of any company claiming vitamin E as their preservative. Vitamin E is an antioxidant and not a true preservative to inhibit mold and bacteria. You run the risk of either contracting an infection from a poorly preserved product or there is an unknown preservative in it and the company is not disclosing it on the label. Dishonest to say the least and what else might be lurking in their product.

Stay tuned for more updates on how to protect yourself from harmful ingredients found in cosmetics and skin care products.

New Product in Time For Warm Weather

2012-03-08T11:25:00.000-08:00

Are you tired of antiperspirants with mystery ingredients that are supposed to fight wetness? Or those that have such a strong scent that it clashes with your body chemistry? How about those "natural" deodorants that can't stop perspiration?

Nature's Natural Solutions has the answer in a new deodorant that is free of aluminum and will protect your body from wetness for more than 24 hours. One day is the maximum time that those products sold at most stores can guarantee. Available in Outdoor Fresh and Sensual Amber scents

Want Soft Skin?

2012-02-28T16:18:00.003-08:00

A good start is to find a quality natural-based skin care company who you can deal with either ordering online or is located in your area.

Don't be fooled by the big chains that have their stores in the local mall and spend a lot of money on advertising and marketing.

Beware of the products that toot a certain natural ingredient like milk or oats.

LOOK at the ingredients and you will find that many of these companies have one or two natural ingredients in their products but the rest is still full of the same synthetic ingredients that all the rest of them use.

So that's like taking having a fresh fruit salad that is mostly made of different sugars, processed fruit and bananas (one of the least expensive fruits out there). While it may kill that sweet tooth, it can hardly be called nutritious.

This year, make a difference in the look and feel of your skin without the use of harsh or mystery chemicals.

Keeping Skin Soft During "The Change"

2012-02-22T11:29:00.000-08:00

Back in my 30's, I used to buy tons of fragrances and scented bath products for every mood. I received a lot of compliments and had no problem telling people about the places that sold them. Now that I'm entering my 40's, it's a little different. While I still look good and am in great shape, my skin gets dry more often. Skin products more oil and synthetics make me feel yucky or I have to use it things more often. Then a friend suggested I try natural goat milk products.

Though I'd heard about the benefits of goat milk, I wasn't sure if this was some new trend. Many retailers like to get on the boat when it comes to making things easier for women past a certain age and only a few live up to their claims.

So I started with the Concentrated Hand and Body Lotion. After putting some on before work, I realized at the end of the day that my hands and upper body were still soft to the touch. The more expensive products could never do this and it wasn't uncommon for me to need another bottle within weeks.

Not only am I saving money but getting even more compliments than before!

Feel Like a Queen on Valentine's Day

Winter is still here and that means giving your skin what it deserves all year long. If you love the department store scents but hate having to "layer" so that skin will stay soft, try our goat's milk bath and shower products for that luxurious feeling!

And remember that you do not have to be a member of royalty in order to feel pampered and special. Back in ancient Egyptian times, Cleopatra only used natural ingredients like milk in which to bathe. Could you imagine if she had to use synthetic products that dry skin or can be irritating?

Being strong and confident like a queen means feeling good as well as looking good. When you're in charge, you have the right to soft skin that is radiant and glowing.

It's Not Too Late For Soft Skin

2011-12-29T14:16:00.000-08:00

If Santa Claus was a little generous this year, treat yourself with Nature's Natural Solutions Hand and Body Wash.

What's the Deal With Parabens?

2011-12-14T11:31:00.000-08:00

Nature's Natural Solutions doesn't have them - and we never will! Just like we will never use alcohol,goat milk extracts or synthetic ingredients in any of our products.

Why? Because parabens have been linked to breast cancer in women (OrganicConsumers.org) and it though it may extend the shelf life of a cosmetic item, these can cause damage to the endocrine system (Safecosmetics.org) as well as other parts of the body.

We want for our customers to be healthy and happy so that we can stay in touch. Enjoy the days by using natural products with no worries!

Happy Holidays!

Facing Reality

2011-11-05T15:48:00.000-07:00

For as long as I can remember, my face has peeled like crazy during the winter months. Especially in that T-Zone across my brows and down my nose, it can get really dry and crackly. A friend told me about a facial cleanser that moisturizes while fighting bacteria but I didn't take heed until it was too late (almost).

For many years, I've acknowledged this and since I work at home, there is a comfort zone that allows me to rough it. Well, one cool morning at the cafe, a guy asked me out. Not just any guy, I thought we really connected on an entirely different level. I figured that by putting on my best face, he may just be the one.

Date night came and the days had gotten much colder since our first meeting so I figured that rubbing some cream (petroleum-based, not smart at all) on my face would get rid of the dead skin flakes. By the end of the evening, my foundation rubbed across everything and he kept commenting about how I "glistened". How embarrassing.

Taking my girlfriend advice, I got some help and when I saw him again, my face was butter-smooth, soft and I felt much better about asking him out, but he is buying the drinks, LOL.

Winter months are coming and if you have extra-dry skin or are suffering from a chronic skin condition such as eczema, try some butter.

Concentrated Foot & Body Butter is what your skin could use as a nice little treat after a long day as it moisturizes without that greasy feeling and is made from natural ingredients such as Cocoa Butter, Oat Flour and Vitamin E.

Treat your skin right and it will return the favor!

Protect Those Lips Now!

2011-10-09T20:16:00.000-07:00

A dry, chapped lip is not sexy nor is slathering jelly or grease across your mouth. Even with the old school methods, lips are still dry underneath all that goop.

It may be the cheap way but it is not the best way. The way to keep lips healthy in cold weather is to moisturize it with a treatment made with natural ingredients.

Our Lip Conditioner is available for both sensitive skin (unscented) and a wide variety of dessert-inspired flavors such as Blueberry (pictured), Maple Syrup, Almond Butter, Butterscotch and Key Lime.

Treat Your Face Right

2011-10-04T19:22:00.000-07:00

There are so many soaps on the market but the only way to tell which one is right for you is to use it.

While this doesn’t sound bad at first, some soap can make skin extremely dry and crackly.

Even if you don’t care about scents or smelling like a fruit basket, having overly dry skin can be dangerous.

There’s even a long-time brand that’s claims to leave the skin soft and even brands itself a ‘moisturizing bar’ but despite feeling like paste after showering, it’s no different than the rest.

The best way to treat your skin is the natural way with Nature's Natural Solutions Spa
Facial Cake.

By using pure ingredients such as Vitamin E, oat flour and goat’s milk, you are guaranteed softness.

Don’t be fooled by cheap imitations that use extracts and powders that are most likely mixed with other synthetic things, even if it’s on sale.

Get Clean and Moisture in One Step!

2011-09-28T17:53:00.000-07:00

I used to do what some people call "layering". Meaning I would find a scent I liked, go to a high-end franchise bath shop and buy everything from the body wash to foot balm to hand lotion just to make sure that I could smell like lavender all day. Of course, I ran out often because my skin always felt dry.

One day, I came to work early and stayed hidden in my corner cubicle. Some others followed and someone asked if I'd made it in yet. A couple of people joked that if you couldn't smell me then no. At first, it was funny but about five minutes later, the joke went somewhere else. I guess people are a little too polite to tell you that you stink too good.

Anyway, I went a little easier but still found myself with dry skin. A friend suggested that I start with the basics so I started with my shower products. This was when I first noticed my skin getting dry and sometimes to the point of cracking during the winter months.

Another friend turned me on to Goat Milk Sugar Silk Shower Scrub. Right away, I noticed that I didn't need to lotion up right after showering.

Strange as it may sound, there a guy at work that's been paying me more attention since I changed my hygiene practices. He just asked if I wanted to go for drinks after work and this is nice since my skin doesn't itch anymore.

What You Should Know About Your Shampoo

2011-09-16T17:37:00.000-07:00

Some of you out there, at one time or another, have tried a shampoo that irritated your scalp to no end. And you may have said to yourself, 'That's what I get for buying a cheap/too darn expensive product.' Price does not matter, it's the chemicals along with the condition of your scalp at the time of shampooing. Dry skin is more prone to itch and sometimes it can hurt more to scratch because the last thing you need is to have product coming in contact with raw skin.

Goat Milk Shampoo and Conditioner does not dry the skin because it contains no Sodium Laurel Sulfate, which has been known to irritate the scalp.

Below is a video that speaks more in-depth about this. Enjoy!

Facial Impressions

2011-09-14T19:17:00.000-07:00

Over the summer, I went job hunting after being laid off for almost a year. Building my self-confidence was a challenge as everything seemed to go wrong on one particular day.

Due to my junk food cravings during my time off, my already oily skin broke out in horrid acne and I had the scars to show it. I even had a friend work with my makeup, which included a heavy concealer but it was no match for that particularly balmy afternoon.

My "face" was everywhere - my clothes, anything I touched - and blotting every fifteen minutes did not help. When the interviewer commented that I must have run to the building, I wanted to just slide under the floor and keep going until I reached my apartment.

While telling my best friend what happened, gave me this cool product called Bacteria Buster. I also started drinking more water so I could flush my system.

Oh yeah, that job thing. I got an email yesterday asking if I could come in for a second interview. Yay! :D

Fight Dry Skin

2011-09-12T16:18:00.000-07:00

Winter months are around the corner and your skin will need the best protection possible. Skin that soft is not synonymous with greasy skin or smelling fragrant. Our Concentrated Foot & Body Butters contain natural ingredients that include pure goat's milk, cocoa butter and Vitamin E. These are not extracts or essences but the real thing and these are concentrated so you don't need a lot. And if you don't want a fragrance or have sensitive skin, we have unscented, also.

A Word From Our Customers

2011-09-08T11:08:00.000-07:00

These days, I'm really watching my money but I don't want to sacrifice my well-being in the process. Now, I'm not a fancy chick that only needs brand name items. Well...not anymore. When I had a nice position with this big advertising firm, it was no big deal for me to spend a days' pay on make-up and skin care items.

In retrospect, I see why the salesgirls were ALWAYS so happy to see me coming.

Anyway, when my company relocated, I tried drugstore and discount brands and found myself with skin that was dry and peeling in just a short period of time. Not long ago, I had an interview with a client and this person gave me a handkerchief while I was speaking. I thanked them and they gestured to my nose.

It was peeling. Badly.

So a friend turned me on to some natural products she'd been using that were made with goat's milk. I asked her how long she'd been using because she never had that strange smell I always associated with natural products. She told me for several months and later emailed me the link to this website. I zoomed in on the first matter of business called my skin. Within a week, I noticed a difference in the whole feel and texture and after a month, my boyfriend even saw how supple it my skin is. Nature's Natural Solutions did me a big favor without taking a big chunk of my money. Thanks!
