OP DE SCHOUDERS VAN JE VOOROUDERS

Hoe bijzonder is het als je uit de privé collectie van je eigen ouders, een prachtig gebonden medisch handboek tevoorschijn tovert. Het originele ‘Cruydtboeck’ (kruidboek) werd gepraktiseerd in de 17e eeuw door mijn voorvader in hun hoeve genaamd Dokters. Het 350 pagina’s tellende manuscript bevat een schat aan informatie over preventieve zorg en geneeskunde in de 16e en 17e eeuw. Het past in de traditie van het zeer bekende werk 'ANTIDOTARIUM NICOLAI' (Een leer welke in hoog aanzien stond en vele eeuwen heeft doorgewerkt). Blij verrast ontdekte ik in de basis op hetzelfde spoor te zitten en geheel onwetend pas ik een deel ervan toe bij het produceren van onze natuurlijke en handgemaakte verzorgingsproducten en shampoobars.

HOLY WEEK

Easter or Holy Week is the most sacred week in the liturgical year in Christianity. Reason for us to refer to a sacred ingredient like flax used in face bar Owlsome.

In ancient Egypt, flax was a sacred symbol of light and purity because of its positive effect on healthy and beauty. Flax contains a lot of omega 3 acid, omega 6, omega 9, vitamin B1, B2, a lot of protein and antioxidants. It gives your skin firmness and tightness. It cleans, hydrates and protects.

Flax is very eco-friendly. It absorbs a lot of CO2 and does not need fertilizers and pesticides. The whole plant is used. The fibers are used to make linen, paper and rope. From the seeds we make oil for food, soap and cosmetics. The rest is used to make food for animals.

Face bar Owlsome is made with flaxseed oil. This face bar cleans and cares at the same time. It can help to reduce pimples and wrinkles. It is a perfect cleaning remedy for acne. Afterwards your skin feels perfectly smooth and bright. Maybe it even make your cream obsolete.

Flax is absolutely not superfluous for us and our planet. The best time to sow is around Easter. We look forward to a beautiful season and wish you all a happy Easter!

GET RID OF BAD BODY ODOR

Natural deo stones Cairn are unique in the world. Cairn deo is guaranteed to stop your smelly sweat with just one light application, for at least 24 hours. Despite what many people think, body odor comes not from sweat. But it’s the bacteria that feed on sweat and make it stink.

It took blood, sweat and tears to create these magnificent deo stones. The result is consistently impressive. The magic ingredient or so called the secret sauce of the stones is alum. Natural alum crystals from the mountains are baptized to develop in different blossom waters, such as orange blossom, lavendula and laurel. We add a pinch of clay to make different color stones. Alum lowers the ph-value of your skin, so bacteria don’t get a chance at all.
And wonder of wonders the naked natural stones can last a lifetime. We dare to say “Philosopher’s stone has been found.”
