We love lavender at Posh Organix!

*Topically, lavender is beneficial for relaxing muscles, and it creates a cooling effect which is perfect for use on warm summer nights.

*As inhalation therapy, lavender in known to calm nerves, reduce restlessness, anxiety & insomnia.

*Use lavender as a natural insect repellant to repel fleas and moths.

*Lavender makes the perfect perfume - especially when mixed with vanilla.

Beautiful Healthy Hair on the Green

With all the focus on green energy and green products, can you take care of your
hair & help the environment? Definitely! Probably more than you think. The best
part is these tips will also improve the health of your hair.

• Wash your hair less frequently

You can start by washing your hair every other day. Depending on your hair type
you may even be able to wash as infrequently as twice a week. Your hair may seem
overly oily at first; however, given some time and your scalps oil production
will adjust. Hair care professionals are mostly in agreement that it is not
necessary and can be damaging to wash you hair daily. When you wash your hair
less frequently this provides your hair with more time to recover the natural
oils that are stripped away during the washing process. The natural oils in your
hair are the best hair product on the market for soft, shiny healthy hair.

• Limit the time in the shower

When you limit the time in the shower hot water and energy usage is being decreased. This helps the environment because water usage is down and energy is
being conserved.

• Rinse with cold water

By rinsing with cold water, hot water and energy are saved. The cold water helps
to close the pores in the skin and the follicles in the hair. This leads to
shinier and softer hair.

• Do not repeat

Most shampoo bottles suggest that you should wash your hair more than once. This
is not necessary. This extra wash cycle only strips your hair of more natural
oils and leads to shampoo waste.

• Buy hair care products that are natural & organic

Since your shampoo and conditioner are going straight down the drain, make sure
you are not sending toxic chemicals into the water supply. Natural & organic
hair care products are also much gentler thus preventing overly robbing your
hair of natural oils.

• Use recycled and biodegradable bottles

Search for hair care products that are bottled responsibly. This will help
reduce pollution and waste.

Puffy Face?

1.Fill a large bowl with water.

2. Add lots of ice.

3. Soak face for about five minutes.

This absolutely works wonders! It is a ‘must do’ after a long night. Kate Hudson reported doing this trick to look movie ready after long nights with her little one.

Beauty Is More Than Skin Deep

Real beauty is not just skin deep, it’s cellular deep. Regardless of what you were born with, you have the ability to be radiant, everyday, by cleansing your cells through pure skin care and a regenerating diet.

The Simple Way:

1) Your Skin

Use only natural and organic products. Your skin ingests everything you put on it. Natural, organic ingredients are more nutrient dense, therefore, more potent and effective. Plant based ingredients work in harmony with your skin and body to enhance healing and regenerative potential. They literally feed and nourish your skin.

2) Your Diet

Fruits and Vegetables are nature’s beauty products. Produce feeds your skin and cells the way they really want to be fed, and your skin and body reap the benefits. Cucumber, for example, is extremely high in silica which is beneficial for your skin, hair and nails. Cucumbers will not only help clear up acne and reduce the signs of aging, but make your skin glow. Cucumbers are also nature’s diuretics, so say good bye to bloat. Goji berries are loaded with antioxidants which pack more skin savers than you can imagine.
