HOW TO REPAIR AFTER SUN IN THE BEST POSSIBLE WAY

The sun has unsuspected and healing powers, but no matter how much we love the sun, one thing is certain: where our skin is concerned, sunlight also has clear disadvantages.

Going into the sun will severely damage your skin, especially if you expose yourself to intense sun without really being prepared.

The ultraviolet A and B rays in sunlight penetrate into our skin and release a kind of "cellular panic" which leads to severe degradation of the skin tissue. This is because they create free radicals which can only be neutralized by antioxidants.

The harm is inevitable, the question is how to repair it?

The desert plant Aloe Vera seems to hold an important part of the answer.

A very interesting fact, confirmed by scientific studies, is that if you use an Aloe Vera product with at least 70% high quality aloe extract immediately after sun exposure, as an after sun, you can almost completely neutralize the damage that the UV rays inflicted on the cells and immune system of your skin, and at the same time you can maintain its natural defense mechanisms against UV light.

 A further result is that Aloe Vera neutralizes oxidative stress (the free radicals released by UV radiation) in three different ways: through its content of important antioxidants, by activating your body’s own antioxidant enzyme system, and by increasing your ability to absorb Vitamin E and C.

These are actually very important and impressive qualities, which mean that if you use stabilized Aloe Vera of the best quality on your skin after a summer’s day in the garden or at the beach, you can give it highly important assistance in quickly neutralizing the many severely damaging and degrading processes that were initiated by the UV rays, and which would otherwise continue not just for hours, but for days after each sun exposure.

Why Organic Skincare

Because we understand that there is cause for concern, because now, after generations of high consumption of chemicals in agriculture, food, detergents and cosmetics alike, we are now paying the price. We see an increasing number of fertility problems, multiple congenital defects and more allergies just to name a few.

WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF RAW FOOD

On the sunny side

Rice is based on equal parts of clever business acumen and desire to work with fun and talented people in decent conditions. My store in Copenhagen was among the first that bought from the Rice collection when the company launched back in 1998, funny that our roads cross again, I love doing business with Charlotte and Philippe again

No nonsense from the middle of nowhere.

Muubs themselves think that their furniture is for outdoor use, we think inside as well as outside, we love its raw and industrial look and see it as a wonderful contrast to our other furniture in softer and more organic materials.

I've asked Helle Forum how to do a home spa, and she tells us:
"Well begun is half done: prepare your home spa with water in a jug, a drinking glass, serve yourself a plate of fruit cut into pieces. Make your favorite towels and your bathrobe ready, light candles and a fragrance lamp, and set relaxing music to pl

The benefits of Organic Cotton

Organic cotton shows great benefits at various levels of the value chain — for the farmers and the consumers and not least environmentally.
From the farmers' point of view it's a sustainable and long term investment to focus on organic cotton production. Demand for organic cotton is constantly rising, since more and more buyers are looking for high quality cotton that is produced according to s

Silver and plastic is truly the stuff dreams are made of.

The fine jewelry collections are named "flowers" and "interpretations". I love her interpretations finger rings, love them for their simultaneous historical references and humorous distance to their own refinement – very, very beautiful yet looking like something you just pulled from a bubblegum machine…

Honoré des Prés, a fairy tale for grown-ups

The fragrances are the work of a classic perfumer, Olivia Giacobetti. She created Honoré des Prés with certified organic ingredients only – which left her with the challenge to work with about 200 possible ingredients instead of the 2000 which are the normal working base for the perfumer.
