A baby’s skin is up to 4 times thinner than an adult’s, making it more susceptible to adverse skin reactions. Conventional baby care products can worsen skin conditions like baby eczema, due to their harsh ingredients such as Mineral Oil which is refined motor oil by another name!

Banish Dry Winter Skin with Skin Blossom

 “It’s that time of the year when we notice skin drying out – but just a little care restores soft, hydrated skin.”

 Cause of dry winter skin

Healthy skin is coated in a thin layer of natural lipids, or fatty substances.  They keep in moisture and leave skin soft and supple. Dry skin is caused when the fatty oils are stripped and skin is exposed.  During winter the low temperatures, low humidity and strong, harsh winds deplete skin of its natural lipid layer and dryness occurs.

Tips to banish dry winter skin

Moisturising is important for nutrients, hydration and protection, but does not get to the root cause. We need to care for skin properly and feed it from the inside. Follow our tips for soft, glowing, hydrated skin:

• Heating systems cause dry air so combat this with a good size bowl of water near the radiator.
• Exfoliate skin regularly but gently, to condition and remove dead cells. For the face try a cleansing milk like ours (£4.95/ 150ml) and muslin cloth – remove the milk with a luke warm cloth using small gentle circular movements. Treat your body to dry brushing with long sweeps towards the heart to exfoliate, detoxify and improve circulation.
• Use natural and organic moisturisers like our Skin Blossom Organic Bloom range as conventional skincare can contain harsh chemicals. Organic skincare however, works in harmony with the skin.
• Apply moisturisers morning and night. The best time is after a warm bath as damp skin traps moisture in and open pores encourage nutrient absorption. Our Moisturising Body Lotion (£5.75/ 200ml) is packed with organic plant oils to replenish.
• Faces are exposed more than any body part, so they need extra care. As well as nutrients and hydration, protection is key. Our Nourishing Face Moisturiser (£6.95/ 50ml) is perfect because the masses of Jojoba oil act like a liquid wax to sink in but protect from the wind, rain and pollution.
• Avoid irritating skin with simple changes such as using a non-bio detergent, and switching from a face wash to a milk. Our Gentle Cleansing Milk (£4.95/ 150ml) removes make-up and purifies without stripping, and our Cleanse and Nourish Body Wash (£4.75 200ml) has a delicate lather with orange to comfort and soothe.
• Apply hand cream during the day as constant hand washing strips moisture. Our Care & Protect hand cream is perfect. It’s packed with plant oils and Shea Butter for softness and protection (£5.25 60ml).
• For a nourishing overnight treatment on parched hands, feet and lips slather them in organic coconut oil at bed time.
• Feed skin from the inside by drinking lots of water and eating foods high in good fats like Salmon, Avocado and nuts.

We learnt about another convert to the amazing properties of the Dimpleskins Bum Bum Balm this afternoon.
 
“Bum balm is working a treat on our wee boys nappy rash”
 
This cool little tin of natural and organic baby skin care has been a core part of range for over 6 years and has more friends than the Globalkids team put together!
 
Bum Bum Balm is a  totally natural skin care product that really works. It’s hand made in Canada using only the finest natural and organic ingredients and we think it really is a nappy change essential.
 
Bum Bum Balm moisturises and soothes baby’s skin at every nappy change. It contains Herbal extracts of organic Calendula and Lavender essential oil which soothe any irritated skin while natural beeswax, Organic Jojoba, Cocoa butter and Vitamin E help to protect and moisturise. It’s also Zinc Oxide Free.
 
The best botty balm we’ve ever tried, and comes highly recommended….again

Makes an unusual baby gift and certainly creates a talking point.

Mosquitos and Malaria

Malaria has been in the news recently when celebrity singer Cheryl Cole got infected on a recent trip to Africa. What you might not know is that approximately 3 million people die annually from this disease – including a small number of Britons. Malaria occurs mainly in sub-tropical areas of the world including large parts of Africa, Asia, Australasia and the Americas.

If you’re concerned, prevention is better than cure, and you should consult your doctor before travelling and prepare yourself with mosquito nets and repellents. We sell a large number of all-natural, chemical free prevention methods including Natural Patches, incognito Mosquito Spray and Citronella Essential Oil.

Whether you’re concerned about malaria or just want to stop annoying bites, we have a natural solution for you!

Buy 2 15 day packs of patches and get a free 7 day pack and a free suntan lotion!

As well as stocking a great new range of products, we have also started a brand new website focussed on the Summer, Festival and Travel market. Check us out at www.natural-travel-products.co.uk

Sun burn prevention

Ok, we’ll be the first to admit that we haven’t had the best summer, but we’re keeping our fingers crossed for a hot August! But if you’re jetting off on holiday, you’ll want to keep you, your family and the kids safe.

We all know that your high street brands of sun tan lotion work. However, did you know that most sun tan lotions contain petrochemicals, synthetic preservatives, and a whole host of other nasty ingredients? What if there was a range of sun tan lotions which were just as effective, made using all natural ingredients and processes – luckily for you, there is!

We sell a wide variety of chemical-free sunscreens which have a range of different protections, for kids and adults, from some of the leading manufacturers including JASON,  Green People, Soleo and UVNatural.

Personal Care

Along with the hot weather comes that sticky, uncomfortable feeling, and let’s face it, we’re all going to sweat more. We have a fantastic product from Hawaii: Body Mints. This is a food supplement, as featured on CNN, which really works to combat body odours, halitosis and perspiration. Read more on our website.

We also have a range of all-natural deodorants, a more traditional solution to your summer needs, from award winning manufacturers like Lavera and Urtekram.

Dry Skin and Anti-Ageing Solutions

In the Summer months it is especially important to treat your largest organ right – your skin! The sun can really dry out your skin, as you spend more time outdoors and less time sheltering from the rain. Check our website for a plethora of solutions; a few of our bestsellers include:

Hope’s Relief Cream – a great product from Australia which is ideal for those with dry skin, eczema, psoriasis or just sensitive skin. There are no petrochemicals and is ideal for everyday use for adults and kids alike.

OG Ireland Natural Peat Face and Body Mask – as featured on This Morning by Dr Chris – this really is the latest solution; we are currently the only UK website supplying the domestic market – we’ve had great feedback from some of our customers already who are singing its praises. Simply apply, leave for 10 minutes and wash off – you’ll be surprised at the results.

Soap is one of the prime causes of dry skin and can be harmful for those with eczema. There are many steroidal products available for your pharmacy, but you may also want to consider our Silvatec Cleansing Bar with antimicrobial protection and vitamin E – many of our customers swear by it. We don’t want to blind you with science, but it contains silver ion technology and comes at a great low price; read more on our website.

For our HUGE range of anti-aging creams and skincare products, have a look at our sister website over at My Ageless Lifestyle.

Superfoods

You may have heard açai berries mentioned in the news recently, but not know what they do or what makes them a superfood. Simply put, a superfood contains high level of nutrients conferring a range of different health benefits. The açai berry is high in antioxidants which studies have shown may protect against cancer and other diseases: a like-for-like serving has much more than apple, orange or cranberry juice.

Our açai is sourced directly from Brazil – unlike other websites, we have a direct line to our Brazilian supplier, which means that our açai is 100% pure – you know what you’re getting. Our Pulpa Store website contains a huge range of superfoods, supplements and nutritional foods. Check our offers!

Don’t forget…

If you’re getting on a plane, you’ll need some transparent bags to put your toiletries and liquids in. These can be bought at the airport – you get two of these little bags for £1… Our tip: plan ahead and get ten bags for the low price of 50p!

For a limited time only: enter the Discount Code ‘Summer’ at our checkout for 5% off your order!
