miessence

Are you a product loving consumer? Who doesn’t enjoy a nice, refreshing shower or bath, lotions and creams and potions and deodorant that make us feel and smell good, hair products that cause our hair to shine and behave in a way air drying doesn’t – except for those born under a lucky star. And that’s before cosmetics ever touch the face. Like Santa’s reindeer there’s Blusher and Concealer and Glosser and Lotion, Polish and Fragrance and Shadow and Bronzer… And unless you’re using the purest products on the planet, i.e. miessence body and skin products, then you’re most likely absorbing a minefield of health compromising chemicals in the effort to look and feel beautiful.

Here are some of the alarming facts about the average number of chemicals found in everyday personal care products, including some of the worst offenders:

If you did your math, you discovered that after your nice shower or bath that’s supposed to cleanse you of waste, dirt and pollution, you could be adding up to 475 toxic chemicals to your body! And remember, your skin absorbs what’s put on it. And that’s just after one shower or bath. Most of us apply lotions and lipstick and other products throughout the day, and wash it all off at the end of the day, and then reapply the lotions and potions and creams. Unfortunately, many of the absorbed, potentially toxic chemicals aren’t flushed out of the body, so they build up day after day, year after year, compromising your health.

That’s the bad news – here’s the good news

The good news is that miessence doesn’t contain ANY toxic manmade, synthetic chemicals – not ONE! Every product is vital and pure. But they do have side-effects: soothing, restoring and beautifying skin and hair, evening skin tone, adding a rosy blush to cheeks… Beauty the way it used to be…
Beauty the way to still can be… Beauty the way it should be… That’s miessence!

Just how green is a miessence product?

It all starts outside, in various parts of the world, in organic soil that is lovingly and respectfully nurtured. A plant grows in the fresh air and sunshine, is harvested and gently refined through cold-processing, and shipped to the miessence warehouse. It is then formulated on site, mixed or hand-blended with other pure, vital and certified organic ingredients, in small batches to guarantee freshness and potency.

No artificial, lab-generated, potentially health damaging emulsifiers, stabilizers, synthetic preservatives, or fragrances are ever used. Instead, the plants’ innate properties contain these elements – much like they do in the wild to assure propagation and longevity. The potent, powerful, health and beauty promoting formulas are then packaged in recyclable bottles and packaging, and sent to you!
