In our quest to stay young; we spend billions of dollars every year on lotions and potions in fancy bottles, with promises of eternal youth. We have been blinded by expensive marketing campaigns, that make us think that beautiful skin starts with a fancy jar and ends with an empty wallet.
Here is the reality, flawless, glowing skin is the result of skin health, not some product made in a lab. Beautiful skin is so easy to obtain and we have made it so complicated!!!
Think about it; skin is your bodies largest organ… and like everything else it needs proper nutrition to function. The amazing thing about our skin, is its ability to readily absorb the products we put on it, delivering those ingredients right into our bloodstream.
Which begs me to ask the question… Why are we still slathering products made with ingredients like formaldehyde, and petroleum on our skin? . Did you know that more than 500 Personal Care products on the market contain ingredients that have been banned in other countries? A lot of these ingredients have been linked to cancer or other ailments such as infertility, Alzheimers, asthma, allergies, nervous system and brain complications… the list is long… and scary.. so I will stop there.
Scary Fact: If you use 12 personal care products a day (shampoo, conditioner, deodorant, lip gloss, lotion etc…) you have exposed yourself to 126 different chemicals….. and more than likely that is all before 8 am. We need to really take a long hard look at the products we are using.
If you are still using commercial products, I encourage you look at the label. Do you recognize every single ingredient listed? Take the time to understand each of the ingredients you are putting on your skin, and the possible harmful effects. Currently the FDA has very little regulations on the personal care market, so it is up to you to research what you are putting on your body.
It is time we ditch these dangerous products and move to All Natural options that are safe for our families, and more effective than the commercial equivalent.
Healthy, beautiful skin starts with products that deeply nourish it; and the ingredients given to us by Mother Nature are the best you can get. Rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants to maintain healthy cell function. All Natural Ingredients provide our skin with the nourishment it needs for optimal skin health; giving you that smooth, supple, radiant skin you have been searching for.
A lot of people who turn to Handcrafted Beauty are always shocked by the results. They cannot believe that our products work so well. I have to admit, even though I have heard it 37,000 times, this always shocks me.
It is like eating a diet of nothing but sugar. and Crisco for a week, and then being surprised at how much better you feel when you move to a diet full of fresh veggies and lean meats?!?!?! Well of-ccourse you feel better, your body was not designed to function on “junk”… it needs that nutrition in order to function. The same concept rings true for your skin my darlings.

Hi, Lyndsey.
I am a friend of Mykalas and have begun to use some of your products. I absolute love them!Like you mentioned, I have noticed a change in my skin, even after only a couple of weeks!:) Have you considered branching out and making shampoos and conditioners?
Hello Michelle-
So glad you are loving the products. Shampoo and Conditioners are such great suggestions!!! With 10 years combined experience in skin care, Raquel and I know so little about hair care… so if we did go down that road, it would be awhile :). We would need to do a significant amount of research and testing!!! Love the ideas!!!!
