Baby, It's Cold Outside :: Balm It, Soft Skin Remedy To The Rescue

Jack Frost is knocking…and I don’t want him to come in!  Recently I have noticed the temperature drop and so has my skin. I’ve tried every thick emollient cream, lotion, potion, etc in the past. You name it, I’ve tried. I also have to admit, I am a sucker for labeling. Give me a slick looking package and Euro-fancy type words and I’m all yours (oui, oui).  The only problem was I really had no clue what exactly was in my purchase.

Which leads me to tote my most recent product a-ha moment working with Joan at Joan Morais Naturals.  In Course 2 back in October, we made many delicious products (all of which I can tell you word for word what ingredients were use in each, thank you very much). But the one that turned out to be the surprise underdog was Joan’s Therapeutic Balm (see past blog for info on balms vs. salves).  Inside this inconspicuous little round tin pot was a velvety, smooth little bit of heaven.  I used it first on my hands as we were all working tirelessly with them throughout the course.  I went home after the weekend and realized I didn’t have a dried out feeling on my knuckles and cuticles. 

A week later after the Course, my fiancé ended up hitting his head at on a steel pipe while helping clean out a warehouse at work.  I reached for the first thing that I had out on my counter…my trusty Therapeutic Balm.  I applied it to his temple where the bump was for a couple days and lo and behold, after just 2 days his bump and all remnants of any mishap were erased.

Moral of this particular tale, this find is not unique because Joan has hundreds of people that can tell their own account of findings and beauty revelations since taking her courses. I am attaching a link the Natural Skin & Body Care ProductMaking 1 Certification Course kicking off our 2012 season in March, where we always invite you to write your own story.
