Now, imagine a company going "above and beyond" a standard mission and addressing multiple needs simultaneously. Imagine a company that employed local, small farmers to produce ingredients naturally, with as minimal negative impact on the environment as possible. Now also prioritize hiring young people, who traditionally avoid the agricultural and farming industries for work. And then sprinkle in the fact that those fresh, locally farmed ingredients are transported just two hours to the laboratories, where they're cold pressed for maximum efficacy and strength (much like the farm-to-table restaurant movements). All these incredible aspects only begin to scratch the surface of the ethos at Farmacy Beauty.
Farm fresh ingredients + scientific engineering and formulation = gorgeous skin naturally. Skincare doesn't have to be fussy, full of fillers and lackluster ingredients, and definitely isn't just for women. Here are some Farmacy Beauty products I'm loving:
Sleep tight! Literally. Reinforcing the skin’s natural moisture content, this balm aids firmness
and tone while helping to restore elasticity and reduce the appearance
of fine lines and wrinkles. The texture is super lightweight, which I really appreciate in the warmer weather. I rubbed a pea-sized amount on the palms of my hands to "warm up" the product, turning the gel into a luxurious oil-like consistency, which quickly melted onto my face, neck, and left just enough to treat my hands as well. Farmacy Beauty's star ingredient is Echinacea GreenEnvy, a unique
patent-protected variant of Echinacea Purpurea. GreenEnvy contains the
highest known concentration of the phytochemical Cichoric Acid, a potent
natural antioxidant which helps protect and firm the skin by inhibiting
the enzymes that break down collagen. Cichoric Acid is more than just a powerful anti-aging booster - it also normalizes the skin pigmentation process to promote a more evenly toned, smoother complexion. In short, Sleep Tight packs a powerful punch with vegetable-derived “Retinoid-like”
ingredients to help prevent early wrinkles, smooth deep wrinkles, improve
skin radiance and texture while restoring firmness.
It would be so easy to recommend a cleanser, exfoliant, and toner. Or you could put your best face forward with New Day. If you're in a hurry in the mornings, travel frequently and have limited space in your cosmetics bag, dopp kit, or gym bag, or are on a budget, this is definitely for you. This powdered product is a three-in-one, gently cleaning the skin, sloughing away dead skin cells and pesky pore-clogging debris, then clarifies and tones, leaving skin silky smooth and radiant.
I tried this out in the shower and can't say enough good things. I poured about a quarter sized amount into the palm of my hand and mixed a few drops of water into a frothy paste. I then massaged it all over my face, neck, and hands, allowing it to sit for a few minutes (while I conditioned my hair), and rinsed clean.
Natural cranberry seeds and rice bran powder sweep away dead skin cells and debris and absorb excess oils, while the brand's stellar GreenEnvy protects against anti-oxidants and free radicals. Plus a natural cocktail of White Willow Bark, Carrot, Green Tea and Marshmallow soothe, protect and calm the skin.
I love face masks. They're quick, effective, and convenient. If you travel frequently or are always on-the-go, I recommend getting one of the assortment packs. This way if you have a sudden breakout or unexpected dry patch, you have a quick and easy solution without having to buy an entirely new skincare regime. During the summer months, you're more likely to have increased sun exposure as well - so a trip to the "farmacy" may be just what the doctor (or farmer!) ordered. Natural coconut gel provides natural moisture to help skin look fresher and more radiant. Kale extract offers a complex blend of
minerals, antioxidants, vitamins and amino acids that helps re-balance
vulnerable, stressed skin. Vitamin A strengthens the skin while active minerals help restore the skin’s ideal oil and water balance. All in one easy mask.
Smooth, soft, full lips are always en vogue. And that's exactly what you'll get with this soothing herb-infused balm. In addition to the anti-aging GreenEnvy, Caster Seed Oil provides a plant-based protective film that helps preserve natural hydration levels, while Sunflower Seed Oil helps maintain the
skin’s barrier function with high levels of emollients derived from
natural essential fatty acids. And the best part - it's not glossy, so it's perfect for men and women.
With Farmacy Beauty, you don't just have to eat your fruits and vegetables - you can wear them, too!
