Perfect skin, is it just an illusion? We all wonder which way to go when it comes to choosing our skin care products. Each company says that their products are the best money can buy. Do we need to spend a lot? Do we need to stick with one line to get the best results? The answers to these questions will be found only through your own experimentation. While there is not one product, or one company that offers the magic bullet, certain companies have put in the research to determine what will most likely work best on different skin types. As we say a lot around here at the All Natural Beauty Website, the key to understanding good natural skin care is understanding good natural ingredients, as well as which ingredients work best for your skin type.

I've had the good fortune of trying a new product on the market that is chocked full of intensely good ingredients. Eden Elixir from Earth Alkemie has a label listing that rivals any expensive serum on the market. I'm happy to report that this product does exactly what it says it will and more. Soft, clean skin is always the goal. But beyond that, enhancing the 'skin function' is something else that I look for. So many products feel great after application, but that's where it ends. With this product, the magic comes after it's been on the skin for a short time. This means that it 'works with the skin'. In other words, it gets the skin functioning to its fullest capacity. I'd compare it to natural health versus the standard faire that we've all grown accustomed to. Rather than masking symptoms, it creates an environment where the body can heal and beautify from within.

After using Eden Elixir my skin feels firmer, more plumped out, and definitely more radiant. These are the magical effects that bring customers back for more! I believe that Earth Alkemie has a hit on their hands here. Another amazing thing about this product is its price. Rather than being a $100+ intensive serum (which wouldn't surprise me for this level of quality) the actual cost is just $34.50 for a full sized (1/2 oz) glass bottle. Only 2-5 drops are all that's necessary for amazing results, so you can imagine how long this product will last.

My recommendation is to spritz the face with hydrosol or water first for an effortless application. The scent is sensational! I am a sucker for Roses, which have the reputation of being extremely relaxing and beneficial to one's psyche. Everything about this product is pleasurable and I know that you're going to love it once you try it. We can all use this kind of affordable luxury.

Here's what Earth Alkemie has to say ~

Directions:Gently massage a small amount (about 2 to 5 drops) to very damp skin (hydrate the skin with one of our toners, hydrosols, or distilled/spring water before applying). To use the xiao sizes (the 5 ml size), hold the bottle at a 45 degree angle to allow the drops to easily flow out.

Optional: if your skin is very dry or it absorbs elixirs or oils slowly, we recommend that after application you spray your skin again with a toner or hydrosol and gently massage the skin again. You can also mix a couple drops of our elixirs with a little toner or hydrosol in your hand or a small bowl, and then apply the mixture to your face. The combination of Earth Alkemie's toners (waters) and elixirs (oils) creates a moisturizer on your skin.
