Skin serums seem to be all the rage now and now I understand why! I have been fortunate enough to be given some 100% cold pressed Moringa oil, all the way from Zimbabwe. Yes I am lucky to have some really good friends! Now to be fair I didn't know too much about this wondrous oil but after doing extensive research and of course checking out the fab benefits on my own skin I would like to share all the juicy deets with you before I package it all up into a neat little dropper bottle with some carefully selected doTERRA essential oils and reiki infused crystals.
I've blended together this energetic skin serum that really is suitable for all skin types but especially those that have dry and mature skin to help beautify your skin, smooth those there wrinkles, tone down those skin blemishes, lubricate that dryness and really just make your skin feel all soft, smooth, glowing and nourished then sell it en masse to the world mwa ha ha!
Now, this isn't just great for you skin, beauty is so much more than just skin deep. I wanted to create a product that has a multitude of uses as it's how you feel on the inside that also counts and so this oil is nourishing both inside and out. It helps us to realise why self care is so important. From what you eat, how you treat your mind & body, how in check you are with your emotions, your behaviors, your relationships, your mental and spiritual levels all play a role in how life pans out for you.
The serums contain the added benefit of healing essential oils which not only benefit the skin but are also known for their therapeutic benefits of their workings on an energetic and psychological level that encompass mind, body and spirit.
Each oil also relates to the according organs that are governed by each Chakra and If you wish you can apply the oil in a circular motion upon each one.
I have gone more in depth in a separate blog post how each Chakra relates to the physical body and where they are located you can check that out here.
Directions for use: Although primarily a beauty serum, these oil's also can be used medicinally, hair serum, as a perfume, for a massage, used before meditation, dabbed on the wrists through out the day, dabbed on your feet before bed at night, dropped in the bath and inhaled whenever you feel like you need a boost.
When using the serum on a daily basis, Place one dropper full into the palm of your hands. Inhale. Then take 3-5 minutes to really massage the serum into you face and neck, send yourself loving thoughts and if using them for subtle energy, spiritual purposes or certain skin conditions what matters is the INTENT, begin with a clear aim of what you want to achieve. and how you want the oil to help you.
Here is the lowdown of all the amazing benefits of these mood enhancing, age defying and therapeutic oils.
THE MAIN INGREDIENT.
MORINGA OIL - from the Moringa tree - Moringa oleifera . The Moringa tree, also known as the Drumstick tree or horse radish tree, is a fast growing, drought resistant tree that is native to the foothills of the Himalaya's. This' Miracle tree' or 'Tree of life' is packed with 'super powerful nutrients' and has been used since ancient Egyptian times.
Fast forward to today and with the knowledge that has been passed down through the generations the Moringa tree is well known for it's amazing healing, therapeutic and nutritional abilities. This highly prized tree is used in Africa and Asia where the pods,stalks and young leaves are eaten as a vegetable due to it's high nutrient value. The leaves alone contain 18 amino acids, 8 of which are essential amino acids making it a complete protein which is highly unusual in the plant Kingdom, so is brilliant if you are following a plant based diet. Protein, of course is, needed to build muscle, cartilage, bones, skin and blood and is also needed to produce enzymes and hormones.
The Moringa is also high in calcium and magnesium, both of these work in synergy with calcium being the building blocks for strong bones and teeth and the magnesium helping us to absorb the calcium. Yes this is edible.
The amazing skin benefits include anti-inflammatory, ant-microbial, anti-oxidants, high in vitamin E, high in oleic acid, which mimics your natural skin oil.
My skin hasn't looked this healthy in a long while, it looks and feels really smooth, soft, hydrated and really is glowing.
This ain't called the miracle tree for nothing !
