Product, Range & Distribution - Studio brief 2


The food we eat for the skin we wear
  • All NOe Cosmetic™ ingredients could be eaten raw - they truly are "Edible". The best way to get Vitamins into our bodies is through raw vegetables and fruits. The best way to get vitamins to our skin is by the same method - through vegetables and fruits.
  • NOe Cosmetics™ offers 100% Organic actives - free of petrochemicals, dyes, preservatives, additives, gathered from their natural environment, food ingredients are naturally bio-degradable. Because none of the ingredients are animal based and are all vegetable or yeast based, they respect the environment. Inherently they are a commitment to renewable resources. This extends to the packaging which is bio-degradable and recyclable as well as being Phylates-Free.
  • Ingredients in the products we eat - protein, amino acids, carbohydrates and vitamins are the building blocks that contribute to the formation of the skin cells themselves. Natural ingredients have an inborn affinity for skin itself.
  • NOe Cosmetics™, Certified Natural Skin Care products contain absolutely NO synthetic detergents, artificial preservatives, colors or fragrances, petroleum by-products, tar derivatives or genetically modified ingredients. Nor are any ingredients tested on animals.
  • NOe Cosmetics™ Organic Skin Care products are energized with the vitality of clean (pesticide-free) and potent ingredients, using only certified organic cold-pressed and unrefined oils and therapeutic grade herb and flower extracts freshly pressed from certified organic fruits, nuts, seeds, herbs and flowers, retaining all the vitamins, minerals and other bioactive nutrients.
Women and men are unknowingly exposing themselves to some 100 chemicals -- many of which have been found to be toxic or carcinogenic -- every morning and night when they cleanse and treat their face with potions supposedly designed to make them look better.

Imagine . . . Natural skin care products where every single ingredient is beneficial to your skin's health. Where not only is every ingredient safe (in fact, edible) but every ingredient does something great for your skin, right down to the antioxidants.

Imagine . . . Certified Organic skin care products that really are the best they could be, without the hype. So full of natural goodness that not only do the ingredient lists read like something delicious, but you can actually feel their energy and vitality feeding your skin.



Watch out! This one is super enzyme-rich, so it burns a little.  



Papaya Seed Mask: makes enough for 3 faces
Seeds from one papaya
Oats/Almonds
Water

Blend all ingredients until smooth. Rub on face and lie down for 10 minutes You will feel the enzymes... it can burn a little but that's good. If it's too much, however, wash it off! When you are done, wash off with warm water and pat dry. Put on some coconut oil to moisturize and seal in the cleanliness. 


chocolate coffee face mask: makes enough for one face... aaaand a snack

2 tablespoons freshly, finely ground organic coffee
2 tablespoons cacao/cocoa powder
water/fresh almond milk, as needed

mix the coffee and cacao together and add water until it's a good face mask consistency. you want it sticky but easy to spread. smear all that goodness onto your gorgeous face and gobble up the leftovers in the bowl! yum! i don't even like coffee... let it stay on for around 15 or 20 minutes. rinse it off gently with warm water. 




Banana Oat Mask: makes enough for 1-2 faces plus a snack =)
1 banana
1 Tb almond milk
1/3 cup oats 

Blend all ingredients until it reaches a good consistency to spread on your skin. Wash face with warm water, then spread mask on. Sit or lie down for 10-15 minutes or until you want to take it off. Then gently rinse your face in warm water and pat dry with a towel. I like to put some cold rose water on right after to close my pores and seal in the goodness! 



Green Monster Avocado Mask: makes enough for 2 faces, plus a snack
1/2 avocado
Juice from 1/2 lemon

Blend all ingredients until smooth. Wash face with warm water, then spread mask on. Sit or lie down for 10-15 minutes or until you want to take it off.

Almond Exfoliator: makes enough for one
Handful almonds
1 t water or almond milk

Chop/process almonds into small pieces, but not flour-like, you want them to be able to exfoliate, remember. Add them to almond milk/water and rub vigorously on your face/skin.  Rinse off and put on some coconut oil to moisturize, or whatever you like.  



 To create the mask, mix 2 tablespoons of honey with a teaspoon of cinnamon and a teaspoon of nutmeg.
{{I made the larger recipe in a baby food jar. You mix 6 tablespoons of honey, 2 tablespoons of cinnamon and 2 tablespoons of nutmeg.}}
I’m sure you are wondering why these products are helpful for your skin. No worries…I researched…and the result? “Nutmeg and honey act as natural anti-inflammatories {reduces swelling and redness in skin}. They’re also great for soothing acne scars and preventing infection.In addition, the nutmeg and cinnamon also work to exfoliate your skin when you wash this mask off.” Thank youcollegefashion.net for this info which is actually where I found this DIY Mask.
