As I age, I continue to seek skincare products that avoid chemicals, yet give me powerful results. When I learned years ago that your skin is your largest organ, it hammered home to me that what we put on our skin matters – not just for our external appearance, but also for our internal health.
I discovered Nourishe Organics by Kristin Bauer recently, and had the opportunity to try her amazing products. I was immediately impressed, and then the stars aligned even more… because one day after I got to try her products, I had a virtual meet and greet with Kristin herself through Modern Picnic! She even taught us facial massage techniques (more on that at the end of this blog post).
Kristin met us Modern Picnic Ambassadors through Zoom, and she talked about how she’s trying to help everyone redefine beauty. Her products incorporate 12 philosophies and formulas. I didn’t have to chance to write down a comprehensive list because I was so enthralled by what she was saying… so here are just a few of them.
- Her products are 100% organic, which totally matters!
- Encoding healing frequencies in the formulas. She talked about how music frequencies being out of tune – like if John Mayer played an expensive guitar but it was out of tune –can affect our listening enjoyment. She says for this reason, being in tune is important and she does this with her products, and tries to do it according to Nature, including the pulsation of the Earth.
- Conscious sun concepts, like she won’t make a sunscreen – so they have a product that’s a serum that’s used plants and flowers that naturally only bloom during the day. All of these plants use chronic energy from the sun and they are able to protect themselves from solar radiation.
Here’s a tip I picked up for “at-home” care from Kristin: wash your face when you get home immediately. Do it thoroughly, as if you are giving yourself a facial. You have all the oxidative stress from throughout the day on your face, and that needs to be removed. Even microscopic matter that can be absorbed into the skin!
Your skin is as thin as a sheet of paper and in the cosmetics industry, they teach abrasive techniques for skincare. But Kristin said, “We want you to strengthen your skin. You want it to be strong and protect you and to be magnificent. All of the healthy inner skin, that dewy look, comes from getting nutrition… and that happens where there is not a lot damaging the surface.”
Kristin demonstrated for us how to give yourself an at-home facial massage, and I’ve been doing these techniques ever since she taught us. I HIGHLY recommend it, and here is a video for you to watch so you can learn how to do it yourself: click here and scroll to the bottom.
Thank you, Kristin, for sharing your knowledge – and for making such a wonderful product line for those of us who care about what we are putting on our skin!
Nourishe Organics products were sent to me complimentary to try. As always, all opinions are my own.
