My massage therapist was amazing. She exfoliated my body with an exotic indulgent plant based scrub! It feel a divine as it sounds. I rinsed of in a hot steaming shower, then came the massage. It was one of the BEST treatment I have ever had. I literally went into the "Silk Lounge" and went to sleep. It was that good.

If you are in the San Diego area, book your Body Journey at Se Spa

Here  is what I enjoyed:

Avocado & Ootanga Body Scrub

60 Minutes -$135 / 90 Minutes $180
Rich in vitamins and fatty acids, avocado oil locks in moisture to promote soft, supple skin. Blended with watermelon seed oil (known in Africa as “Ootanga”) from Namibia and pure cane sugar, this creamy body scrub exfoliates expired cells to reveal the radiant skin beneath.

Indigofera Sacred Aromatherapy Bath Soak

Indigofera Sacred Aromatherapy Bath Soak

Palmarosa essential oil 4 drops

Lavender essential oil 12 drops

Geranium essential oil 4 drops

Ylang Ylang essential oil 2 drops

Sweet Orange essential oil 3 drops

Dead Sea Salt Sea Salt 2 3/4 c

Baking Soda 1/4 c

a handful of mixed dried botanical or herbs

Lavender buds

Rose Petals

Calendula

For moisturizing bath add two tablespoons of your favorite plant based carrier oil. My favorite is sweet almond oil

Sacred Aromatherapy Bath Soak

Ingredients:

• 3 cups Dead Sea salt, regular sea salt or Epsom salt, or a blend of two or three of these salts. Sea salts typically come in several grain sizes. Combining multiple grain sizes can make your salts more appealing. Keep in mind, however, that more course grains do take longer to dissolve in the tub.
• 15-24 drops of your selected essential oil or essential oil blend. Be sure and take heed in the safety data for the oil(s) you choose to use.
• 1 tablespoon sweet almond or olive oil

Directions:

Place the salt mixture into a bowl. In a separate small bowl or bottle mix vegetable oil and the drops of your chosen essential oils. Next add it to the plain salts and mix well plastic spoon. Add the mixture to a pretty jar, decorate with raffia and dried eucalyptus. Salts that are kept in a container that is not air tight will lose their aroma more quickly.

After a day, you may wish to mix well again to ensure that the oils are well incorporated.

To Color to Your Salts:

For the most natural bath salt recipe, leave your bath salts uncolored. Certain exotic salts including Hawaiian Red Sea salt and Black Sea Pink salt are naturally colorful. Try mixing these salts with with Dead Sea or plain sea salt for a speckled effect.

If you would like to add color to your salts, mica powder can be added before you add the essential oils. When adding mica powder, only add a tiny amount (1/16-1/8 a teaspoon is usually sufficient) and stir very well. Using too much dye or mica powder can discolor the water and discolor skin, so be very careful. Leave bath salts at a soft pastel color.

To Use:

Add 1/2-1 cup of the salts to running bath water. Mix well to ensure that the salt has dispersed well in the tub before entering. To keep the essential oils from evaporating too quickly, you can add the bath salts just before getting in the tub instead of while the water is running. Sitting on undissolved chunky bath salts, however, can be uncomfortable, so make sure the salts have dissolved well before entering.

In India it is known as 'choomana poolu' and is also referred to as 'Indian Verbena' or 'Indian Melissa oil' and used in Ayurvedic medicine. Lemongrass oil is extracted from the fresh or partly dried leaves by steam distillation. It is a valuable ingredient in perfumes and fine organic soaps and beauty preparations.

Aromatherapy Properties: Psycho-Emotional
Lemongrass Oil boosts self esteem, confidence, hope and mental strength, uplifts spirit and fights depression. It relieves anxiety and stress.


Indigofera Beauty Solutions:
Indigofera has always recognized the benefits of the Earth's gifts through essential oils. We first used lemongrass in the Nourishing Hair Serum, formally know as (Jojoba Hair Oil). When our clients began to rave about the scent, we decided to infused the Organic Hair Souffle' formally, (Silky Soufflé) and Botanical Hairdress with lemongrass too. Indigofera offers lavender, peppermint, ylang-ylang, orange, lemon, lime in our aromatherapy blends. Due to its uplifting and revitalizing properties, Lemongrass has become Indigofera's signature aroma for Hair Care Rituals.

The Best Finds in Exclusive Beauty Products

The Best Finds in Exclusive Beauty Products

In this new day and age it is hard to ignore all of the many advances that have been made in skin, body, and hair care products. If you happen to be one of the many female consumers that is challenged by the rigors of locating the ideal product for you, then please read on because this helpful guide will walk you through some of the best and upcoming beauty products out there for you today!

It is easy to understand the phrase "you are what you eat", but keep in mind that the products that you put on your face will also affect your health, as they are readily absorbed into your circulatory and nervous system. That changes your tune a little, doesn't it? That is precisely why it is so important to be selective in the products that you apply to your face, body, and hair, and to look for plant based solutions with certified organic ingredients to promote overall wellness and health. In the new natural and organic market, there are so many fresh choices rising up that you can customize in any way to treat your skin and hair.

In skin care, remember that green tea is a major antioxidant on the rise that plays a large role in modern skin care products. Green tea has been applauded for its healing properties, as well as the fact that it is a vasodilator that will tighten and constrict skin because of the caffeine within it. What more can you ask for? Other vital skin and body care ingredients are Vitamin C and hibiscus flower, with the latter being rich in Alpha Hydroxy Acids and amino acids to have a tightening affect on the skin without over drying. Select skin and body care products that focus on aromatherapy as a means to soothe, rejuvenate, and hydrate your tired skin by using the finest quality of essential oils that are produced.

Natural hair care is also quite important, as hair damage is exacerbated and enhanced by using low quality and harsh products that will further strip the hair of its natural oils and shine. Rather than using chemical rich products found in many grocery stores, focus on natural oils added to your hair care products like aloe vera, coconut oil and avocado oil. Also look for mango butter and shea butter for natural healing and a fatty acid content to prevent dryness and breakage in your hair by nourishing, moisturizing, and literally replenishing the hair follicle. Other new ingredients in exclusive hair care products, like lemongrass, lavender, and peppermint, benefit the hair by using a holistic method to invigorate the hair with fresh scents and aromatherapy.

I hope this was helpful in introducing many of the new choices in natural and organic skin and hair care products available! Do not settle for less than a nourishing and restoring line of products that will exceed your expectations. Natural skin and hair care products can be tailored to meet all of your needs in a way that cannot be found just anywhere. Sophisticated natural products that have the highest quality reflect your class and taste, and they also will give you the longest lasting results for your skin and hair.
