The title of this blog might leave you wondering what I mean by "natural products do natural things too." At our last market, with summer quickly unfolding it's heat on us, I noticed some of my body lotions were separating. I instantly panicked, thinking "gosh, people are going to see this and FREAK!". Until I had one customer tell me, "all that tells me is that your products really ARE natural." Then, I started thinking more about that, and here we are in this blog post talking about how natural products do natural things, too.
When I say that our products here at HSEN are 100% natural, I'm being serious. I'm sure on our products and multiple other places on our website you've seen us talk about how we only use 100% purely therapeutic grade essential oils, PURE carrier oils (which means its straight from whatever nut, tree, plant, herb, etc we're using), PURE beeswax (meaning we locally outsource beeswax to use in our products), PURE honey (shoutout to The Bearded Bee Keeper in Germantown!), PURE distilled water (this is different from filtered in that it's distilled steamed making it the purest form of water), and natural colorants from flowers and other plants that are ground into powders to include in our products. And although we use purely natural preservatives in our products as well (please see our blog on natural preservatives), our products are natural so they have the capability of breaking down. Natural products are literally food for your skin, and as food breaks down if it doesn't get eaten, or how the bananas go bad that sit on your counter for longer than they should, natural products are succomb to the same thing. This doesn't mean they're bad or spoil within a few days making them unusable. All this means is we are telling the truth when we put those ingredient labels on our products telling you what's in them. Most of our lotions and face products can last 2-4 months and do just fine! But, just know, if you purchase one of our products, use it once and store it away in a cabinet and then remember it's there a few months later (like six months because let's be honest we've all done this at some point - including me), it probably won't be good. But with all of that being said, natural products do natural things too, and the best part is, they help your skin rebuild and restructure itself so that your skin can get the most benefits from each product, helping your skin to THRIVE!
A little tip to incorporate into your routine when using our natural products would be just to give your product bottles a little shake before using just to ensure everything stays blended. Though we strive to ensure that each product that is made is blended seamlessy, they're still natural, as we talked about above, and separation can happen from time to time. It doesn't take away from the efficacy of the products.
Although this isn't your typical blog post, it's so important to us to remain transparent with all of you. We put our hearts behind everything we do in this business and strive to create products that target an array of individuals, no matter the skin concern. If you are interested in trying some of our products, we do offer monthly subscription packages that are tailored to each person allowing you to try an array of products each month! We also offer a loyalty program where you can earn points and rewards with each purchase!
We love our customers and are so thankful for each person that chooses to put their trust in our products!
