Organic Skin Care

By Tammera Aranda

Why Choose Organic Skin Care Products?

What we choose to apply on our skin is important, just as what we choose to eat is important to our overall health. Processed foods have most of the nutrients stripped from them so the healthier choice for our bodies is raw, natural, preferably organic food. The same can be said for skin care choices. Our skin is a living, breathing organ, and the largest in the body. Choosing certified organic skin care is important in decreasing the toxic load on our system. Here are some potentially harmful ingredients that are used in manufacturing the most common non-organic skin care and make-up items:

• Mercury

• Dioxane

• Nitrosamines

• DEA

• Cyclomethicone

• Ammonium Laureth Sulfate

• Alcohol, Isopropyl (SD-40)

• Polyethylene Glycol

How effective is organic skin care?

As a professional in the skin care industry for over 20 years, it has been found that the best skin care available originated in nature. Organic skin care products work better simply because they are made with superior raw active ingredients. The skin absorbs, recognizes and utilizes pure ingredients better than synthetic materials.

The Body Deli — Raw Superfood for the Skin

The Body Deli is a pioneer in the organic skin and body care industry and they’re on a mission to provide natural products that deliver real results. This company makes their products by hand in small batches in order to ensure that their product is fresh and therefore most effective and with higher potency. What a difference! Nothing else compares to this product’s regenerative and restorative ability. Mother Nature really does know best!

Camp season is officially on!

Our lineup of Summer Camps packs each week with adventure, skill building, new friendships and the kind of memories kids talk about long after school starts again.

Our counselors bring high-quality instruction and tons of enthusiasm. And some new camps this year add to the fun! So, let’s trade in screen time for game playing and trying new experiences this summer!

Cellar Club

Great 8

In this edition, I was assigned the daunting task of coming up with five wines that everybody should have in their cellar. My mind searched through the thousands of bottles that I have ever tasted, and then the tens of thousands of wines that I have researched throughout my career.
This has left us with the following list, which became Jeff’s Great 8. These wines are extremely rare and hard to find, and especially come with a huge cost.

Cordillera Ranch Residents

Living Life Under Par: Jaylaine and Erik Van Uden

Some families arrive in Cordillera Ranch because of the views. Some come for the golf. Some, like Jaylaine and Erik Van Uden, come because the timing finally feels right.
And maybe a little bit for the golf.
