Sevani’s “Chemistician” Founder Says Find Your Passion!

Wow, more then 24+ years as an Aesthetician where does the time go?  They say “time flies when you are having fun”, and while it’s not always fun, I am truly blessed to love what I do.  My background with some of the largest cosmetic manufacturers and studies of holistic beauty have led me on a journey to develop safe non-toxic yet effective skin care products which is my passion.

 

Many years ago I began to study cosmetic chemistry and formulate custom blends for my salon treatments  and product prototypes.  I truly found my passion in formulating because I know what goes in “most” products and what works and what doesn’t and how unfortunate it is that the average consumer is unaware.  This knowledge inspires me daily to make a difference and assist clients in overcoming skin challenges and emotional ones via truly natural custom blends based on a synergy of organic ingredients, cutting-edge actives and all-natural preservatives.

 

A few months ago I was honored when a long-time client referred to me as her “Magician Chemistician”.   How clever!  Why didn’t I think to combine Chemist and Aesthetician?  I finally have that unique title I had been longing for. :)   If you are dissatisfied with the path you took,  are no longer inspired or are longing for change. … it’s time to make a change!

 

You may just find your passion…..Thanks for supporting mine.

Sevani And You – Helping The Animals Together

When you buy Sevani products you not only buy chemical free, cruelty free professional grade skin care products but, did you know you’re also supporting many causes that also help protect and care for animals?

Yep!

You are!

Animals have always been a big part of my life, and being in the skin care industry I know first hand the incredibly cruel circumstances some animals live under.  That’s why I’ve always donated my time, resources, and of course my money to non profit charities both local and national that help animals.

When I developed the Sevani vegan skin care line I knew I wouldn’t use any animal based ingredients and of course I’d NEVER use any ingredient or test my own products on animals EVER.  But, I wanted to do more.

In addition to making my own products cruelty free, I’ve also resolved to always give a portion of proceeds from sales of Sevani to animal welfare organizations.  So, by purchasing natural skin care products from Sevani, your support helps us fight the tragedy of pet overpopulation, protect animals from abuse and institutionalized exploitation, and halt animals cruelty wherever we find it!

For example, for October we just made a donation from sales to Friends of Animals.  This wonderful organization says this about their vision for their work:

“Our goal is to free animals from cruelty and institutionalized exploitation around the world.”

Simple, to the point and something I can get behind and I know you can too!

The House of Skin: Repair and Renew Your Exterior In A Few Simple Steps!

italian roof shingles like skin careMany new clients come in for a skin care service expecting great results in an hour long treatment.   Upon consultation many say they want to improve texture, skin tone and/or prevent aging.   While there are many exceptional benefits from a customized facial treatment, the use of quality skin care products on a daily basis is also essential to maintaining proper skin health and enabling your skin to do it’s job well.

Often I ask my clients “if your roof leaks would you repair it”?  The answer is always “yes”.

Well, you’ve got to do the same for your skin.

The body is considered by many to be the house of the soul, and your skin acts as the roof and siding of this sacred house. Just as these exterior pieces protect the traditional house and it’s contents from the harsh environment outside, our skin is designed to protect everything that’s “inside” our entire body!

To maintain the integrity of a home we have to often replace some shingles, right?  This the same as needing to turn over newer, healthy skin cells.  Now, we don’t sand shingles as that could make the wood underneath crack and leak with improper pressure.  The same is true for your skin.

Instead, we recommend a very mild means of naturally replenishing skin cells (shingles) like gentle organic fruit acids, enzymes, and regenerative vitamins so as to not scratch and abrade which can cause leaking capillaries or damage underlying tissue.  By increasing cellular turnover we totally replace old sluggish cells with newer healthy ones, just as we would the exterior of our home.  By doing so our skin is better able to do it’s overall job and look spectacular while doing it!

What comes next?  Protection!

Just as you need to seal the roof and often the siding too for extra protection from damage, you need to do the same for the skin.  Unlike most homes today though you can protect your skin without the use of high powered chemicals.

Instead, natural skin care formulations like our signature berry blend derived from Acai, Goji, Amalaki, and Sea Buckthorn berries offers a high powered boost of antioxidants and Vitamin C which work to protect your skin from free radical damage and accelerated aging.

Also, look for products containing Essential Fatty Acids, Amino Acid Peptides, Botanical Extracts, and Essential Oils  that will work hard to naturally protect and rejuvenate the skin via their anti-aging and restorative properties.

What’s Inside Affects The Exterior Of The Home Too

Although this discussion is about caring for the exterior of your sacred “home”, what’s inside affects what’s outside too.  No point in having good things on the outside when what’s on the inside can damage them.  A diet full of fresh organic fruit and veggies, Omega Fatty Acids, and the proper amount of water will keep skin healthy from the inside out and will enhance the effectiveness of the the skin care products you’re using to repair and protect the skin on the outside too!

Care for your skin naturally and effectively and give it as much ( maybe even more!) attention as you give your home.  Regular use of high quality skin care products will enhance not only your skin’s appearance, but, the overall health and wellness of your entire body!  Treat your skin gently and it will only treat you well in return by protecting all the precious contents of your unique and beautiful “home”.

Natural Skin Care Products – The Body’s Largest Organ Deserves Only The Very Best!

 

pretty lady face with lily and natural skin careWhen choosing skin care products consider this; your skin is your body’s largest organ.  It protects you, cleanses you, helps you breathe and of course, covers you from head to toe.  With all of these important jobs don’t you think your skin deserves only the very, very best?

 

There’s no reason to slather on lotions and creams made of chemicals that are not only tested on animals but, still not even completely understood.

 

Instead, choose skin care products you can trust.  Products whose ingredients are only nature’s best and therefore they never need to be tested on animals or anyone else.  They’ve worked for hundreds, some even thousands of years to help care for the skin and help it do its work for the body even better.

 

You see, natural skin care ingredients are more compatible in molecular structure to your skin.  As a result, all the benefits they offer including anti bacterial, anti aging, anti inflammatory, hydration and more beneficial properties are absorbed into the skin with much greater ease than their chemically derived counterparts.  This gives natural skin care products an increased efficacy while at the same time avoiding the need for toxic preservatives and other ingredients.

 

Natural and organic skin care products really are the best for your skin as well as well as the rest of your body.   Plus, they’re better for the planet too!

 

If you’d like to learn more about your skin, how to care for it naturally, natural skin care product or anything else, please get in touch for a free 15 min skin consultation with our licensed holistic aesthetician.  She’s got years of skin care experience and, believes in helping her clients and the planet through the use of natural and organic professional skin care products.
