Protection From the Elements - Top Three Essentials We Love

Valery Gherman | October 20th, 2006

With the weather becoming cooler and the onset of a chill factor approaching, I have picked three of my favorite essentials to pack for your trip to New York City. Whether it’s the cool climate or central heating, your skin is constantly being exposed to all the elements. These wonderful products share a strong holistic philosophy of healing, nourishing and the use of the purest organic ingredients.

Living Nature - Manuka Honey Lip Balm

This wonder product contains honey derived from New Zealand’s Manuka flower. Healing properties in Manuka Honey stimulate tissue repair and the lactic acid found in the honey aids in the clearing of dead skin cells so you will not be left with those annoying flaky lips.

Dr Hauschka - Hand Cream

To protect your hands against the drying affects of the weather and the peeling of cracked skin, Dr Hauschka Hand Cream is ideal. The cream soothes while conditioning your hands. It contains the purest of special oils and waxes including the rich juices of the Kalanchoe plant, which supplies moisture to the skin to protect your hands without leaving them greasy.

Weleda - Everon Face Balm

For more intense protection from the element, Weleda’s Everon Face Balm offers a rich nourishing barrier. The sweet almond and beeswax ingredients give this therapeutic product an overall sense of wellness. It’s definitely not your everyday moisturizer but it’s perfect for those colder days when the wind blasting down the avenues.
