After a long wait Varnya is finally gonna be launched on October 28th 2010,  website (www.varnya.com) will go live on September 28th and Pre-order option will be there.

Varnya is an Anti-aging Serum made with Rare Ayurvedic Herbs, Botanical Extracts and Essential Oils that addresses 9 Skin Care Issues

Varnya:

Reduces Fine lines and Wrinkles

Evens out skin tone

Repairs damages caused by UV rays

Fights Acne

Tightens sagging skin

Fades age spots and blemishes

Moisturizes and makes your skin soft and supple

Tightens pores

Brings glow to dull and lifeless skin

This is the only product that I have been using for a while now and all I can say is my skin  looks much better than when I was in my 20s.  Its Glowing , literally!  I am not boasting because this is my product but all the volunteers who have tried Varnya(in the testing phase) has to say the same thing.  Ayurvedic Herbs, Botanical Extracts, Essential and Cold Pressed Oils have been used  in this formulation.

I am gonna be offering  a customized option where you get to fill out a skin care questionnaire and I personally create a product that is beneficial for you. This is specially helpful if you are Pregnant, Nursing or Allergic to some or the other ingredients used in Varnya.

Though Essential Oils and Herbal extracts are 100% Natural some of them have to be avoided during Pregnancy and Nursing. Some eesntial oils might not be good if you have a high Blood Pressure so taking all those factors into account, I will personally create an unique blend “just for you”.

Varnya is 100% Vegan

Gluten Free

Preservative Free

Chemical Free

Artificial Fragrance Free

Colorant Free

Mineral Oil Free

Cruelty Free(Not Tested On Animals),  it is tested on Human Volunteers.

Lavera Wild Rose Cleansing Milk

I had been looking for a paraben free organic facial cleanser for my skin type which is normal to dry and finally found one. I was using Stem Organics Cleanser but I was sure there would be some good organic brand I could experiment with so I finally bought Lavera Wild Rose Cleansing Milk. Its much cheaper than Stem Organics Range.

Ingredients Used In Lavera Faces Rose Cleansing Milk

Ingredients:Water (Aqua), Elaeis Guineensis (Palm) Kernel Oil, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Alcohol, Glycerin, Sodium Cetearyl Sulfate, Hydrogenated Palm Glycerides, Shorea Stenoptera Butter, Coco Glucoside, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil*, Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil*, Squalane, Glyceryl Oleate Citrate, Hydrogenated Lecithin, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice*, Rosa Canina Fruit Extract*, Rosa Damascena Flower Water*, Lysolecithin, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter)*, Myrtus Communis Water*, Citrus Aurantium Amara (Bitter Orange) Flower Water*, Equisetum Arvense Extract*, Ginkgo Biloba Leaf Extract, Xanthan Gum, Lecithin, Brassica Campestris (Rapeseed) Sterols, Tocopherol, Ascorbyl Palmitate, Ascorbic Acid, Fragrance (Parfum)**, Geraniol**, Citronellol**, Limonene**, Linalool**

* ingredients from certified organic agriculture

** natural essential oils BDIH certified pH value: 5,0-5,5

Free from Sodium Lauryl/laureth Sulphate, parabens, phthalates and harsh chemicals.

Their Ingredient List looks good, I couldn’t find any harmful chemical or synthetic ingredients. Do not get confused between Sodium Laureth/Lauryl Sulphate and Sodium Cetearyl Sulphate, Sodium Ceateryl Sulphate is a natural emulsifier derived from plant oils that are high in Fatty Acids.

Lavera Wild Rose Cleansing Milk Is Ideal For Dry, Dehydrated and Mature Skin

I bought my cleanser on ebay and it arrived pretty quick along with a free sample of Lavera Wild Rose Daily Moisturizing Cream. I found the cleanser very soothing and gentle, it left my skin feeling hydrated. It has a sweet floral smell which is derived from plant sources,nothing artificial.

After using it for about 2 weeks I can say that it is a good cleanser for people with dry, dehydrated and mature skin. This product is definitely not for people with combination and oily skin because it is a rich cleansing milk.

I also tried out the sample which came along with my order but I wouldn’t use that moisturizer again because it felt too greasy and sticky, may be people with severely dehydrated skin will find it useful.

Where To Buy Lavera Products?

I bought mine on ebay but there are plenty of sources online where you can buy Lavera Products. The best place to buy Organic Skin Care and Make-up is Love Lula or you can buy it directly from Lavera’s Official Website. Love Lula doesn’t keep Lavera Wild Rose Range but you can find other Lavera products at lesser cost than their actual website. I asked the founder Lula why they didn’t have Lavera Rose Range and she replied to me saying that their customers found Lavera Wild Rose moisturizer to be greasy(I completely agree) so they are not going to add it to their store unless they reformulate it. I bought Lavera Trend Liquid Foundation from them, just excited to try it out. Love Lula is a UK based company but they ship worldwide and the international shipping rate is as low as $5.

I am so excited to let you all know that I am launching my own Eyelash Growth Serum in the first week of Feb. It is made with Eighteen 100% Natural Cold Pressed Oils, free from artificial fragrance, artificial colorant, preservatives and any chemical. I am not one of those lucky women who has Breathtaking Gorgeous Eyelashes so I always wanted to find something that would work for my average length Eyelashes. After experimenting for years with different carrier oils I finally found the perfect Eyelash Growth Serum, this blend is much more powerful than the one which I mentioned on my Anti-aging e-book. This product is so effective that you will start seeing results in less than fifteen days. Cold pressed plant oils used in this formulation will help stimulate the growth of your eyelashes, condition, nourish and strengthen thin, weak, and brittle eyelashes and make them darker, thicker and fuller and it works for Eyebrows too.

I would be shipping this product worldwide at a very reasonable rate. Will let you all know once my website goes live. I am so excited:)

Quick Update- This eyelash serum will be available online from February 18th 2009.

Lead in Lipstick is becoming a serious issue and most of the brands have started to reformulate their Lipstick. One of the well known Brands dropped its lipstick price from $67 to $9.90 just because it had a high percentage of lead. Lead is a harmful chemical which causes Cancer so the higher the lead content, the greater the chance of getting Cancer. But AfterGlow Cosmetics offers Lead Free Lipstick which is very safe.
