Linda Parelli Natural Skincare
The super powered key to our plumping Hydro Primer is Sodium Hyaluronate. Sometimes you will see it referred to as Hyaluronic Acid and Hyaluronan. No matter what the name, the effect is tremendous. When applied topically, you can feel and see instant changes. It works by storing 10,000 times its molecular weight in water.
Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a compound that occurs naturally in every tissue of the body, with the highest concentrations occurring in skin, cartilage and eyes. Providing protection to cell structures, HA is the natural gel between skin cells that serves as a water reservoir for the cells. As we age, skin loses hyaluronic acid and the ability to hold sufficient water in this reservoir. Feeding new hyaluronic acid to skin may help hydrate skin's intercellular reservoir, raising skin's moisture level, and smoothing down age lines
This effectively allows water to be added back into the upper layers of our skin. Smoothing and plumping as it goes. It can be "cocktailed" with any of our products to make them go on more smoothly and sink in more quickly. We particularly like it with the Sea Buckthorn C Serum or the Bee Organic Mock Retin A as the citrus notes blend nicely, and they make these other products seem lighter because they are absorbed so quickly.
If you apply a drop to one hand and compare them in light, the visual changes are instant and impressive.
Hydro Primer ships in a one ounce dropper bottle and contains high dose Sodium Hyaluronate scented with pure essential oil of Lemon, known for its revitalizing and uplifting property. According to aromatherapy authority Jean Valnet, MD, lemon is a tonic for supporting the nervous and sympathetic nervous system. We chose it for how it treats dull skin by stimulating circulation and brightening skin. The bright happy scent is a great way to start your day.
To use our Hydro Primer, simply apply a few drops after washing your face. You can get close to the eye area to help address fine lines around the eyes.
This product is even more effective for clients with oil production issues or living in humid conditions, as it works as a humectant drawing moisture from the air and is totally water soluble so it feels light and refreshing. For those of us in drier climates, it is still effective because you apply it and an “underlayer” and follow with moisture which can penetrate more quickly because the skin is more receptive. You will see that it reduces flaking and restores suppleness over time.
Nourish. This gorgeous daily oil is nourishing, healing and protective, and the exotic essential oils of cardamom and kaffir lime enrich your skin and your mood. Every time I massage these beautiful oils into my face and neck, it gives my skin the most luxurious infusion and transports my senses. Breathe deeply, it is aromatherapy too!
You can’t put moisture into the skin, so the best way to keep your skin supple and hydrated is to stop moisture from leaving in the first place. Your skin’s natural fats and oils are meant to do this, but with our modern lifestyle and exposure to the elements and chemicals, we need to amplify it.
Lavish it all over your face, around your eyes, on your neck, décolleté, and even the backs of your hands. Use as much as you desire. You can even use a little to tame your hair’s dry ends.
INGREDIENTS: Raw organic hemp seed oil, meadowfoam, squalane, essential oils of amber, cardamom, and kaffir lime.
DIRECTIONS: Nourish Your Skin Twice Daily. Dispense 2-4 pumps onto your fingers and gently massage all over face and neck, around your mouth, over lips, and under your eyes. You can use it over eyelids too when not using eye shadow.
This super handy retractable brush makes it SO easy to have your sunscreen with you all the time. We keep them in our cars, backpacks and outside on the deck. It comes with a little dispensing bottles of the powder and can be easily refilled with our Bee Sunny block.

Another nice feature is the brush is held in place with magnets, so you can pull it off to clean it.

We are loving both the scent and texture of this lightweight bb cream. You can pick between colors. We find them to be sheer in coverage so you want to go with a color choice just a hair darker than you would normally pick. For instance Queenie is normally “light” but picks either medium light or medium in this product.
When looking at the swatches note that the final color will be a thin layer. One of our favorite spa clients is outside with horses all day and says it is the best sunscreen she has ever used.
ENJOY
Switching to oil cleansers can have a profound impact on aging skin. During stressful times for your skin, this is a great way to restore lipids and soothe skin. You cut out all things that could irritate your skin when you switch to pure cleansing oils. This is a great way to take off make up and is gentle on your eyes.
INGREDIENTS: Fractionated coconut oil, essential oils of pink grapefruit and litsea cubeba.
