Top 10 Products We Love For August

August 27, 2018

1. Phi Kind Cherry Almond Butter Filling

Okay, so we have to assume you have tried Phi Kind’s dangerously addicting, yet guilt-free Cherry Almond Butter Truffles. And, if so, you have probably savored that delicious creamy filling inside, wishing you had a whole scoop dolloped on your spoon. Well, thank goodness Phi Kind is finally selling jars of that sweet and savory goodness.

2. Zizia Botanicals Mushroom Mesquite Powder

Made with vanilla, dandelion and chicory, this herb laden powder easily dissolves into hot water or mylk, with flavors that blend together symbiotically and have a delicious taste that you couldn’t believe aren’t unhealthy for you! It supports digestion, immunity and can even help curve sweet cravings. We especially love Zizia, as they provide high quality and accessible herbal products, care, and services at a sliding scale clinic, offering help to those in need no matter their income. 

3. Gaia Herbs Mood Uplift Liquid Capsules

Gaia Herbs is one of our most trusted herb company allies - plain and simple. Living in Los Angeles can be very stressful. With constant stimuli and pressures, its hard to maintain a balanced mood and calm mind. We have been using these amazing capsules to support our positive, uplifted moods and lighten our nervous system with such herbs as St. John's Wort, Gotu Kola, Ginkgo, Rosemary, Oats, and Passionflower.

4. Kitchfix Grain Free Original Waffles

Grain-free is everywhere now, and for good reason. Grains can irritate the digestive system and feed viruses and bacteria, so we choose to keep ourselves clear of any allergens whatsoever. We are loving this waffle mix made with hemp, flax, coconut and cassava flour and sweetened with maple syrup. Check them out as soon as you can, and you can even buy these at Sprouts Market.

5. Kosås Rosewater Weightless Lip Color

Cruelty, Paraben, Phthalate, Mineral Oil, Propylene Glycol, Phenoxyethanol, Synthetic Fragrance-free, this lipstick is our go-to makeup accessory for those dreamy end of summer nights. Youthful and romantic, it easily transforms from afternoon to night. Made with Mango Seed Butter, Shea Butter, Cocoa Seed Butter, Green Tea Seed Oil, Rosehip Seed Oil, Jojoba Oil, Sweet Orange Oil to make it not only visually appealing, but nourishing for the lips.

6. Goldthread Green Minerals

Goldthread’s dedication to true herbalism practice and total transparency in their business model is just a few of the reasons we love them. Our go-to drink this August is their Green Minerals beverage, as another way for us to rejuvenate our nutrient reserves, as well as, cleanse and renew our systems. The viridescent herbs infused with maple syrup not only taste refreshing, but also break down our daily stress and cool us down from the summer heat. 

7. Ancient Minerals Magnesium Oil Spray

Magnesium is an essential nutrient our bodies need to function properly. One of its great effects is soothing and repairing broken muscle and tissue. This Genuine Zechstein magnesium chloride spray, that is sourced from 1500 meters underground, and untouched by modern pollution, is the ultimate magnesium spray to relieve sore muscles and nerve health, as well as, lead to better sleep and improved skin. It is rapidly absorbed into the skin to help as quickly as possible. 

8. Majestic Garlic Sprouted Cilantro Jalapeño Hummus

We stumbled upon this hummus at Erewhon, intrigued by its ingredients of 100% USA organic fresh raw sprouted garbanzo beans, organic cold-pressed olive oil, organic sunflower oil, organic cold milled flaxseed, organic garlic, organic sea salt, milled cumin, and fresh lemon juice. This is without a doubt one of the best and most addicting hummuses we have ever had. Combining classic hummus tastes with a tangy twist and kick, we recommend this hummus amongst all.

9. WomanCode: Perfect Your Cycle, Amplify Your Fertility, Supercharge Your Sex Drive, and Become a Power Source by Alisa Vitti

This book has been recommended to us by holistic doctors and women alike, so much so, that we had to purchase it and read for ourselves what we were missing. This ground breaking book is written by holistic health coach Alisa Vitti to help and teach women about how to maintain health and vitality with a food-based program to rebalance their hormones. If you suffer from such symptoms as irregular periods, fertility issues, depression, or lack of sex drive, read this book to find a real and holistic way to balance your reproductive system and lessen the symptoms that come along with it all.

10. Ohoy Swim Reykjavik One Piece Swimsuit

Made with Scandinavian simplicity, this effortlessly chic and ridiculously comfortable bathing suit is made from recycled plastic and fishing nets collected from the sea. You would have no idea all of their beautifully made bathing suits are made from completely recycled materials! It also features adjustable straps, a seamless finish and three gorgeous colors to choose from.

Summer Essentials

June 23, 2015

Happy Summer!  The longest day has come and passed.  The vegetation beckons to be noticed and wind takes great pleasure in playing with our hair.  Here are our essential accompaniments to our favorite time...now. 

ALOE VERA

Applying fresh aloe vera gel topically after a sunburn, or any burn, will begin to soothe and heal the skin.  Aloe is the ultimate skin tonic, but it's also a great food!  Its long-chain polysaccharides create a demulcent quality that soothes the digestive system.  Having this in the house is a priceless addition! 

CLARY SAGE TONER

Simple, uplifting and perfect.  Only organic or wild-crafted botanical ingredients comprise Benshen's lineup of skin alchemy.  On top of that, each of Benshen's products are crafted with a healing mantra.  This scent is akin to heaven's dew drops and applying it makes you feel like an invincible fairy.

ASHWAGANDA

Emotional balancing, immune boosting, energy inspiring....all gifts of the incredible Ashwaganda.  Sun Potion sources from small organic farms in Northern India where the roots are cold-water extracted.  This adaptogen is the necessary addition to put you in the chilled-out-hall-of-fame.

Castle Rock Water

From glacier to glass, Castle Rock Water is our trusted, go-to water.  Castle Rock is bottled in glass from the sacred springs of Mount Shasta.  It's so important, especially in our current water state, to seek out and support pristine, conscious water companies.  Castle Rock also gives back some of its profits to local communities.

The Rose With The Broken Neck

11 year aged Sri Lankan organic nutmeg, oak-aged French Cognac, Peruvian Palo Santo, and first distillation Rose make up Strange Invisible's "The Rose With The Broken Neck".  Do we need to say another word?
