Our Philosophy on skincare and bringing out the beauty from within by cherishing the outside of our inside...

Natural Wisdom's Skin Care Philosophy

Wed, 01 February 2012
There are those, who see their skin as nothing more than an inert outer covering lining the outside of the body. it’s cleaned, polished and treated with highly processed, synthetic products, just as if it were an object, like a machine...

But, this couldn't be further from the truth. Our humble skin is our bodies largest Organ and excreting gland. It helps regulate, detoxify and harmonise all our bodies systems, it’s our first line of defense and an integral part of our immune system, our endocrine system and our digestive system.

Our skin protects us with it's complex 'Acid Mantle' a biodiverse and sophisticated microcosm of friendly micro organisms and fatty acids that hold the line come rain or shine.

Our Skin is truly amazing because it needs to be. Just think for a moment if our skin stopped doing its job, it survives on very little credit and has to tolerate a great many challenges, from increasing environmental pollution and radiation to toxic chemicals in our everyday skincare and our everyday life.

Here at Natural Wisdom, we love to find new ways to protect, nourish and rejuvenate our skin because we don't see our skin as an inert outer covering, we see our skin as the outside of our inside, the reflection of how we live and how we feel, from our emotions to our beliefs... It holds our spirit, the light of life which distinguishes us from others, without which we simply do not exist.

Have you ever noticed that our skin glows brighter when we're happy, it lights up when we smile, it blushes when we're embarrassed and it shows when we're tired, stressed or unwell.... Our skin responds and reacts to a healthy lifestyle & it both absorbs & digests whatever we apply to it.

Our skin cools us and it warms us. It is reactive to our emotions and responsive to our lifestyle. Our skin, literally holds us together. These are just some of the things our skin does for us all day, everyday.

We passionately believe that healthy skincare should be healthy wholesome food, that’s why our products are hand made and cold blended in small fresh batches from certified organic, cold pressed, bio active superfood ingredients, no fillers and blking agents, synthetic silicons, propylene glycol, polymers, parabens or other such toxic and nonsense ingredients. We don't compromise...because what we do to our skin, we do to ourselves...

Feed your skin what it deserves. Cold blended, organic superfood skincare. Inspired by the pure botanical energy of natural wisdom.

    How Do You See Your Skin?!

    Some of us see it as nothing more than an inert outer covering...

    We see it as the outside of our inside, the reflection of how we live and how we feel, from our emotions to our beliefs... It holds our spirit, the light of life which distinguishes us from others, without which we simply do not exist and yet, it is something even more than all of this.

    Our Skin is truly amazing and it needs to be, it survives on very little credit in todays world and has to tolerate a great many challenges, from pollution to toxic chemicals in our skin and hair care products.
    We may take it for granted but our humble skin is our bodies largest Organ and excreting gland, it helps regulate, detoxify and harmonise all of our bodies systems and it is the largest part of our immune system, protecting us with it's Ninja style Acid Mantle and its sophisticated microcosm of friendly micro organisms that hold the line come rain or shine.

    Our skin glows brighter when we're happy, it lights up when we smile, it blushes when we're embarrassed and it shows when we're tired or unwell.... Our skin responds and reacts to a healthy lifestyle & it both absorbs & digests the skin products we apply to it, including chemicals we would rather it didn't....

    Our skin cools us, it warms us, it is reactive to emotions, responsive to lifestyle, and adaptive to temperature, our skin, literally holds us together. These are just some of the things our skin does for us all day, everday.

    What's so special about Raspberry seed oil ?

    Rasberry seed oil as long as it is organic and cold pressed is a very powerful nutriceutical gaining in popularity amongst those in the know. Scientists are getting in on the act and beginning to do a lot more research into this incredible seed oil. Why is this? the best way for me to explain is bullet pionts, for those of you who hate this kind of presentation and prefer to read an article, forgive me but I have 3 kids and an incredibly busy life and today this is all the time I could spend. I promise to write it up better another time....okay then, are we seated comfortably? then I shall begin...

    • Properties include extraordinarily high levels of Omega-3 and Omega 6 essential fatty acids, 
    • Red Rasperry Seed oil is a very powerful anti-oxidant.
    • It contains 83% essential fatty acids. 
    • It also contains very high levels of Vitamin E.
    • Raspberry seed oil has been found to contain powerful anti-inflammatory properties superior to many other oils except Pomegranate seed oil (Punica Granatum).
    • Red Raspberry Seed Oil has been shown to act as a broad-spectrum UV-A and UV-B shiel with  an SPF of between 28 and 50 and is a valuable ingredient in natural sunblocks and sunscreens. 
    • For more research information >> (Oomah, et al 2000.)
    • To summarise then >> Raspberry Seed Oil contains exceptionally high levels of alpha and gamma tocopherols (vit. E), vit. A and omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. This provides the skin with significant broad spectrum protecion from damaging UV-A and UV-B rays. SPF of between  28 and 50. Oomah, et al 2000"

      We use it blended with Rosehip seed oil and Pomegranate seed oil, cold pressed and certified organic of course and without any other weak cheap fillers in our Rosehip & Pomegranate Antioxidant Skincare Collection. We can't wait to hear what you think of our skincare so please look out for us. ;-)

    What has Hyaluronic Acid got to do with it ?

    I love Hyaluronic Acid and i have looked far and wide for the right Hyaluronic acid (Sodium Hyaluronate) to put in our Rosehip & Pomegranate Organic Skincare Collection. It had to be free from GMO ( Genetically modified organisms) it had to be animal free and it had to be the highest grade possible. I am happy to say that Natural Wisdom uses the highest quality Hyaluronic Acid available.



    Hyaluronic acid is fundamentally a sugar molecule with some very interesting qualities. It has the rare ability to hold up to 1000 X its own weight in water. This molecule we have in our own bodies, especially in the tissues of our skin, joints and organs but as we age we begin to lose it. Putting Hyaluronic Acid in skincare is not a way to turn back the clock but it is a way of holding moisture into the epidermis plumping our skin and helping hydrate and keep our fine lines at bay. We use Hyaluronic Acid throughout our Rosehip & Pomegranate Collection. www.naturalwisdom.co.uk
