Pure Organics Pink Grapefruit body & skincare products treat skin & the fight against breast cancer with care!

Wednesday, April 7th, 2010

Pure_Organics_Pink_Grapefruit_by_SJ_Creations_WithLogoSJ Creations is proud to announce that their Pure Organics Pink Grapefruit body and skincare products not only nourish and treat skin lovingly, but a portion of the proceeds from all Pink Grapefruit Pure Organics products goes to support the fight against breast cancer through a variety of charities, who are committed to spreading knowledge and fostering hope in the fight against breast cancer.

The owner and founder of SJ Creations, along with his wife and fellow owner and founder, can personally relate to the fight against breast cancer. Twice, Rich Yousko has supported his mother’s fight against breast cancer, and twice, she has overcome the illness and is a breast cancer survivor. Countless friends and acquaintances have also fought the disease, some of whom have won the battle, some of whom have lost.

SJ Creations Pure Organics SkincareThrough their personal insight and connection to such a worthy cause, Rich and Sundi Yousko developed a specific product line by SJ Creations that would help spread awareness through healthy and safe products that also give back to the fight against breast cancer. The Yousko’s make annual monetary donations that go directly to non-profit organizations in their mission to support the fight against breast cancer. One organization that SJ Creations gives back to, is the National Breast Cancer Foundation, whose mission is to “save lives by increasing awareness of breast cancer through education and by providing mammograms for those in need.” The NBCF is also a four-star charity with a huge part of each dollar going directly to programs.

Pure Organics Pink Grapefruit skincare products include vital ingredients for radiant skin, including essential oils that help to heal damaged skin.

The Organic Pink Grapefruit Hand Crème is one of our favorite items Pink_Grapefruit_Pure_Organic_Hand_Cream_Breast_Cancer_Awarenessespecially for spring, as cool air can keep hands dry and cracked. This hydrating hand crème is lightly scented with pink grapefruit essential oils that leave hands radiant and smooth, and there are no artificial colors or synthetic fragrances, keeping the ingredient deck pure.

An array of essential oils that help distinguish the Pink Grapefruit body care products by SJ Creations include Grape Seed Oil, Avocado Fruit Oil, Evening Primrose Oil, Sweet Almond Oil, Organic Macadamia Seed Oil and Organic Sunflower Seed Oil. Here’s why they were included:

Grape Seed Oil (Vitis Vinifera): very high source of pycnogenol, which is known to be the most active substance in the battle against damage caused by free radicals. Grape seed oil also gives a balance and synergistic base of bioflavonoids while hydrating and softening the skin.

Avocado Fruit Oil (Persea Gratissima)- Helps improve rough and itchy skin. Rich in Vitamin D, Potassium and Vitamin E and acts as a carrier for active substances; also aids as a skin softener.

Evening Primrose Oil (Oenothera Biennis )- Includes a high amount of linoleic acid which regulates cellular activity and is essential for maintaining healthy skin.

Organic Sweet Almond Oil (Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis): known to improve complexion of skin, it also balances and restores moisture levels. It’s also suitable for all skin types.

Organic Sunflower Seed Oil (Helianthus Annuus): high in vitamin E content and also contains vitamins A and D. Sunflower oil, like other oils, can retain moisture in the skin. It may also provide a protective barrier that resists infection, and acts as a “second-skin” which is particularly helpful during harsh conditions for the skin.

Organic Macadamia Seed Oil (Ternifolia): rich, cushiony skin-feel and high oxidative stability make it especially suitable for heavy creams. This protective oil has a high absorption rate allowing moisture to penetrate deep into dry skin effectively.

Wake up with a refreshing shower with the Pink Grapefruit Pure Organic Body Wash with elements from Aloe, Cucumber, Hops and Ivy, for a truly gentle cleanse that restores your body’s natural PH Balance, or, refresh on the go with the Pink Grapefruit Body Mist, leaving your skin radiant and glowing with skin-boosting ingredients like White Tea Extract and Pomegranate Extract!

“This past weekend I flew out of town to visit a friend. Not only did the Pure Body Pink_Grapefruit_Pure_Organic_Body_MistOrganics Pink Grapefruit travel set make it easy to prepare and pack for carry-on status, the body mist kept my skin feeling “awake” and healthy during the long flight,” wrote Hannah Vardy, an SJ Creations Facebook Fan and customer who shared her thoughts in an online wall post.

Pure Organics Eye Cream with Nourishing Fruit Oils!

Monday, March 22nd, 2010

Pure Organics Eye Cream ApplicationThe ever important eyes, are a critical part of your face to not only keep fresh, but also moisturized with the right ingredients, which often times does not mean the regular face lotion!

This delicate area of skin requires special ingredients to nourish, hydrate and also replenish with nutrients that can diminish the signs of aging or environmental stress.

With these facts to consider when choosing an eye cream, also consider this: do you know how important your skin is as a vital organ? Would you trust your delicate eye area to anything less than Pure Organics?

When the ingredient deck was selected for the Pure Organics Eye Cream, it was important to look again at some of Mother Nature’s best natural options to fight harmful environmental stress factors for your skin.

eyecream_withgrapesThe list we came up with for Pure Organics Eye Cream revolves around these key powerful hydrators, anti-oxidant powerhouses and natural skin replenishing agents: fruits!

Fennel Fruit Extract: helps lift dull looking skin while firming and tightening the skin for a smooth appearance!

Organic Grape Seed Oil: rich in essential and non-essential fatty acids; Linoleic acid, oleic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, a-linoleic acid, and palmitoleic acid – all of which are vital to good healthy skin. It’s also readily accepted and absorbed deep into the skin, allowing for great moisture to reach below surface levels.

Grape seed oil is also high in procyanidolic oligomers (PCOs); the very same antioxidants found in berries, green and black teas, as well as red wine.

According to the Wikipedia entry for Grape Seed Oil, “Grape seed oil is a preferred cosmetic ingredient for damaged and stressed tissues, possessing regenerative and restructuring qualities which allow for strong control of skin moisturization.”

Olive Leaf Extract Pure Organics Eye CreamOrganic Olive Leaf Extract: skin-conditioning agent with protective qualities and healing presence of flavonoids and oleanolic acid, which stimulate the components of the connective tissue and regularizes skin tissue – thereby, boosting the health of skin. According to the clinical summary by Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, “A major component of olive leaf, oleuropein, has been shown to have antioxidant properties.”

Olive Fruit Oil Pure Organics Eye CreamIn a study done in 2005 by Dr Stevenson, regarding the, “Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) Report on Olive Leaf Australia’s Olive Leaf Extracts,” performed by Southern Cross University, an “olive leaf liquid extract made directly from fresh olive leaves recently gained international attention when it was shown to have an antioxidant capacity almost double green tea extract and 400% higher than Vitamin C.”

Olive Fruit Oil: Derived olive leaves, olive fruit oil is a skin stimulator and anti irritant as well as a powerful anti-oxidants source.

Japanese Citrus Unshiu Peel Oil: evens skin tone as it Japanese Citrus Unshiu Peel Oil Pure Organics Eye Creamnaturally brightens!

Also in this organic rejuvenating Pure Organics Eye Cream, are time-release Liposomes that enhance moisture penetration through natural processes with the skin.
