I've been having a few late nights recently and I wish I could say I've been partying but no, it's all been due to work! So late nights = bed without removing make-up = terrible skin! So what's my magical cure? Spiezia Rose and Chamomile Gentle Face Scrub, It exfoliates and nourishes the skin and is ideal for every skin type. My skin tends to dry out when I forget (ahem) to cleanse before going to bed and so my rescue rememdy a few days later is the fantastic hand sifted Organic Chamomile stamen found in this scrub that create texture and work as a gentle exfoliant; softly buffing the skin to reveal a beautifully smooth and glowing complexion, leaving my skin feeling & looking soft and healthy. It's fantastic!
The perfect combination of Rose & Vanilla Maceration, Jojoba – renowned for regulating sebum production, Coconut oil for hydration and Sesame oil, a natural and intense anti oxidant, moisturise the skin leaving it soft and healthy. Leave any excess oil to soak in and hey presto gorgeous, soft, glowing, smooth skin has returned!

I started Katia Organics to sell Natural and Organic skin care products for like minded people looking to reduce the number of chemicals we put on our skin on a daily basis. When I discovered that many of the chemicals included in everyday toiletries could cause cancer and other nasty side effects and that the skin absorbs up to 60% of what we apply to it I was quite shocked so was keen to use only products that were as natural and organic as possible. At Katia Organics we do not stock any products that contain parabens, sodium lauryl/laureth sulphate, mineral/petroleum oil, propylene glycol, phthalates, PEGs (polyethylene glycol compounds), DEA (diethanolamine), TEA (triethanolamine), synthetic colours or synthetic fragrance.
SO HOW DID I DISCOVER NATURAL AND ORGANIC SKIN CARE?
During my first pregnancy I started to become aware of the toxic chemicals that surrounded me, from sitting on the sofa (yes the toxins from the foam were sifting their way into my body) to the expensive products I was lathering onto my skin morning and night.
Both my children were born with dry skin and both diagnosed as having eczema. For the first 9 months of my son’s life I religiously applied steroid creams and emollients and wrapped him up in bandages to go to sleep and yet there was no difference to his skin. I discovered that all these lotions and creams actually were full of ingredients that dried the skin out therefore exacerbating the problem I was trying to control, as a mother I was disgusted and horrified that I was actually making his skin worse!.
At that point I started to change all the creams and lotions that were used in the house (you can probably picture the scene!), from kids moisturisers to facial and hair care to toothpaste and what a difference in not only the childrens skin but my skin as well.
The kids still get flare ups and I have to identify the cause (bubble bath at Granny’s house!) but generally I can control most of the eczema.
