HERE'S THE QUESTION - what is the world's very best in natural beauty products and personal care? Is it the best marketing? The smoothest packaging? The most expensive products? We found what we were looking for in Sensa-skin. Here was the best mix of herbal actives, organic soapwort and other phyto nutrients and the most gently effective, proven pharmacy ingredients. Users gave us rave reviews that Sensa-skin nourishes and enhances the natural qualities of their skin and hair. The formulations complement natural processes by maintaining proper PH balance, avoiding allergic reactions and adding the subtle holistic benefits of herbal extracts and aromatherapy. And we have to say we loved the way that Sensa-skin products are formulated - as caringly as a mother will prepare homemade food for her baby. Jane Christie, the owner, uses many of the herbs that grow literally in her own backyard. It's not just her 20+ years experience as a herbalist that impressed us - she has an instinctive understanding of the good things that come from the Earth.

HERE'S THE PROBLEM: Millions of consumers using personal care products, from toenail varnish to toothpaste, every day, translates into lots and lots of loverly money being spent across the globe. So why wouldn't companies big and small pull out all the stops to secure a nice slice of that market? Many enterprises have the means to make their offerings appear very attractive, no matter what the real benefits (or otherwise) of their products may prove to be. Advertising makes for familiarity and done right, this alone can have amazing results - think of Coca Cola which is no more than coloured and flavoured water. Who would be so brave as to claim Coke was a truly healthy drink - yet it fills the role of a magical and universal comforter for uncountable numbers of people. A few personal care and cosmetics firms have supplied the global demand to the extent that these companies appear impregnable. They have been around a long time - we perhaps grew up with them - and we may oft times buy their products without thinking twice... or even once. ENTER THE NEW PUSH: As millions start to think 'natural' and 'organic', a whole new paradigm kicks into play. Unfortunately 'natural' (or even 'organic') isn't automatically the answer, because after all it's only a word. And words are pretty cheap - especially when that loverly money is at stake. So we started to look into the whole question, and as usually happens, found that as we delved a little deeper it wasn't quite so simple as is sometimes made out. Eventually we decided that better information could help consumers (that's a rather formal word meaning you and me). The result was... FREE e-book: "How to choose natural beauty products" HOW did we make our way through the natural beauty products maze and choose Sensa-skin? In brief: we avoided products that claimed to be natural but still used harsh, sometimes toxic chemicals. Such unsafe ingredients often have the dubious benefit of being dirt cheap, although they are frequently disguised in fancy (and pricey) packaging. Packaging also influenced our choice; we favoured recyclable /biodegradable materials and simple design criteria that gave more value to the product itself. We weren't terribly surprised to find that some lower quality products employed the word 'natural' to disguise less-than high standards. A few items even posed health risks due to inadequate preservation practices. It was a pleasure to find the affordable Sensa-skin range, which offered the best balance of modern technique and traditional knowledge. proudly hosted by Toowoomba Website
