Oils are an important source of energy as well as natural skin loving barrier. However not all oils preform the same and have the same benefits. In this article, we will review several oils and make Zoe suggestions. Both animals and plants fats can used for many different reasons, therefore, clearly there are superior oils as well as inferior oils. The most advantageous oils for eating and using because of their body protecting benefits such as anti-inflammatory properties are coconut oil, avocado oil, olive oil, and ghee/grass-fed butter. Zoe Provisions uses these highlighted oils for their anti-inflammatory properties and vast other health as well as skin benefits. Coconut Oil is wonderful for its health and medicinal properties of antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal and antioxidant. Microscopically, it is made up of a medium chain triglyceride (MCTs) which can be used by the body as raw fuel. Other added benefits of coconut oil are increase satiety, increase metabolism, increases immunity, increase gut health, and increase brain health. It has a high smoke point which means it can tolerate high heat, of more than 500 degrees Fahrenheit, before the oil will begin to burn when cooking with it. For the skin, coconut oil strengthens as well as moisturizes the top layer of skin, protect the skin from sunburn, and assist with the removal of dead skin cells. Zoe Provisions highlights Coconut Oil in our Zoe Three-Step Exfoliation System of our Zoe Microdermabrasion Exfoliation which comes in five different Zoe essential oil combinations of Hayat, Liv, Vida, Vita and Zivot. This is the smallest exfoliant which offers an ultra-polishing effect on the skin when using our Zoe Three-Step Exfoliation System. Avocado Oil is skin ultra-moisturizing and nourishing because of the monounsaturated fats and powerful internally as well focusing on brain and heart health. Avocado Oil has skin penetrating fatty acids with the addition of the vitamins of A, D and E. Furthermore, Avocado Oil replenishes sun scorched skin, increases collagen production, and treat age/dark spots. Avocado oil also has specific monounsaturated fatty acids of oleic acid and lutein as well as has anti-inflammatory properties both internally and externally. It has a high smoke point which means it can tolerate high heat, of more than 500 degrees Fahrenheit, before the oil will begin to burn when cooking with it. Zoe Provisions highlights Avocado Oil in our Zoe Three-Step Exfoliation System of our Zoe Cane Sugar Exfoliation and Zoe Sea Salt Exfoliation which comes in five different Zoe essential oil combinations of Hayat, Liv, Vida, Vita and Zivot. These are the largest (cane sugar exfoliation) and medium (sea salt exfoliation) exfoliant which offers an exfoliating brilliant effect on the skin when using our Zoe Three-Step Exfoliation System. Olive Oil has many antioxidants that are useful for both the inside and outside of the body. It also has an omega-3 fatty acid chain of which the body needs. Olive Oil decreases inflammation, normalize blood sugar levels and decrease risk of heart disease. Not all olive oils are equal. Read your labels. It is best to purchase extra virgin olive oil from one region/country, cold pressed olive oil is a superior option, packaged in a dark colored glass container and stored when not in use in a cool, dark place. Olive Oil does not have a high smoke point, therefore, beware and do not heat up over 400 degrees Fahrenheit. To be extra safe, use your olive oil in cold or room temperature dishes. Zoe Provisions highlights our Greek, organic, cold pressed, extra virgin Olive Oil in our Zoe Facial Serum available in five different Zoe essential oil combinations of Hayat, Liv, Vida, Vita and Zivot. Our five Zoe Facial Serums targets problem areas of dryness, oiliness, sensitive, acne, rosacea, redness, hormonal, age/dark spots, and wrinkles. Zoe Provisions Facial Serums targets skin imbalances while providing the perfect scent preference to each Zoe Seeker. Ghee/clarified grass-fed butter is a more complex butter because the excess water has been removed, resulting in a higher fat content. It can help the body get extra fat-soluble vitamins of A, E, and K which keeps the skin glowing as well as glowing vision. Ghee/clarified grass-fed butter helps the body internally to have higher good cholesterol levels and, in some studies, demonstrated a significant decrease in breast cancer cells. It has a smoke point of 485 degrees Fahrenheit. Zoe Provisions highlights our organic, cold-pressed clarified butter/ghee in our L’Chaim Eye Serum. Our L’Chaim Eye Serum targets dark circles around eyes, eye puffiness, crow’s feet/wrinkles around eyes and improve skin elasticity as well as tone. The L’Chaim Eye Serum also emphasizes Frankincense, Rose, Turmeric, and Beeswax. Many times, oils can get an unhealthy label and effect when the oils are highly refined, meaning they have gone through many different steps from its original state. The oils to avoid are heavily laden with trans fats (addiction craving) and can become a target for disease. These highly refined oils can be a culprit for speeding up the aging process as well as a buildup of free radicals (bad things). Another negative factor is when these oils have been genetically modified to withstand pesticides and herbicides without harming the plant but absorb these chemicals into it. Zoe Provisions aims to empower and educate each of our Zoe Seekers. Regarding oils that are known to be inflammatory causing unhealthy effects, avoid these oils like the plague! Begin to avoid corn, soybean, canola, safflower oils, mineral, and hydrogenated oils. Zoe Seekers know change is a process and takes time to adjust as well as improvements to our habits. However, the sooner we begin the process of adjusting the sooner we will begin to reap the benefits of these changes.

Every salt is not the same kind of salt. There are various types of salts. One reason for this is where it is obtained from such as a body of water or mine. Another reason for the differences in salt is their geography; depending on the region, salts will have different types of minerals present. In this article we will focus on seven different types of salts: Table Salt, Himalayan Pink Salt, Himalayan Black Salt, Dead Sea Salt, Celtic Sea Salt, Black Lava Salt, and Epsom Salt. Table Salt is also called halite. It is collected from rock salt mines and evaporated seawater. When obtained from mines, it mostly comes with other minerals that are considered toxic. And when obtained from seawater, it comes with pollutants. That is why it undergoes refining, processing, and bleaching to remove all the toxins and pollutants which leave behind white color salt grains. Later other ingredients are added such as iodine to make iodize salt. Himalayan Pink Salt is said to be the purest form of salt found on earth because of its pollutant-free unaltered nature. It has less sodium than regular table salt. Himalayan Pink Salt also has 84 vital minerals which enhance the pink salt’s nutritional value and therapeutic properties. Himalayan Black Salt is known for its medicinal properties for centuries. It has a very strong flavor and pungent smell that makes it different from other salts. Black Himalayan Salt is high in antioxidants and very low sodium content. It also contains vital minerals like magnesium, iron, calcium, and many more that are essential for health. It has an alkaline nature that helps to reduce acidity in your stomach. Dead Sea Salt is the evaporation of dead seawater giving Dead Sea Salt crystals. It contains 21 minerals like zinc, sulfur, magnesium, potassium, calcium, iodine, and sodium. All these minerals help cleanse and detoxify the skin. Dead Sea Salt’s benefits include improving skin texture, making it rejuvenated and moisturized. It has large magnesium amounts which hydrate the skin by improving the skin’s lipid barrier. Grey Celtic Salt is also known as Grey Sea Salt and Sel Gris. It is a less refined and moist salt that is found along the French coast. The crystals of Celtic salt have clay mixed in it that makes them moist and light grey in color with some purple tint. Celtic sea salt has more concentration of water that gives exquisite saline flavor. The crystals of Celtic salt are large and moist with a little crunch. Black Lava Salt is collected from the Pacific Ocean of Hawaii and Cyprus utilizing ancient, traditional methods of solar evaporation. The dark color of real Hawaiian black lava salt is due to the presence of activated charcoal that comes from the Hawaiian lava. Epsom Salt is also called Magnesium Sulphate. It is a magnesium, sulfur, and oxygen-based chemical compound. It was discovered in the town of Epsom in the English county of Surrey. It is a very popular salt because of its various benefits for the skin. Taking a hot bath with Epsom Salt crystals detoxifies and moisturizes the skin deeply. It is also used for foot detoxification to remove all the toxins. Zoe Provisions recommends each Zoe Seeker to soak in 2 cups of Epsom Salt in a bath or foot soak once a week for 45 minutes. This will help detoxify the body and then absorb much needed magnesium into the body. Epsom salt additionally increases magnesium levels because the human body has 300 processes that requires magnesium, decreases stress levels, relieves constipation, and decreases inflammation. and improves blood sugar levels. [***Salt information sourced at: www.saltean.com/different-types-of-salts/ and draxe.com/nutrition/epsom-salt/] Presently, Zoe Provisions uses Himalayan Pink Salt in our Zoe Goat’s Milk Soap Bars and Dead Sea Salt in our five Zoe Sea Salt Exfoliators within the natural products of Zoe Provisions’ Skincare. At Zoe Provisions we avoid using table salt because of the process it undergoes. As we educate our Zoe Seekers, we would hope you would make a switch for higher performance salts like those we have discussed in this article for a brighter Zoe life. Zoe Provisions offers our unique Zoe Three-Step Crystal Exfoliation System. It is available in five different essential oil combinations in our Zoe Collections of Hayat, Liv, Vida, Vita and Zivot. Zoe Provisions has conducted much research into the ingredients as well as production of our Zoe Three-Step Crystal Exfoliation. The concept behind the Zoe Three-Step Crystal Exfoliation System is in our understanding of skin and how to best exfoliate it. In the art of exfoliation, dead skin cells are sloughed off and leaving radiant skin. Zoe Provisions has perfected the art of exfoliation by incorporating the use of three different sized crystals. Beginning with our largest crystal, our cane sugar scrub, applied gently and with circular motions is best to begin to exfoliate off the dead skin cells. It is important to note to make sure especially at this step you are extra gentle while exfoliating because of the size of the large crystals. Next, it is followed by the second step, our sea salt scrub, this medium sized sugar crystal is noticeably smaller than the previous, thus continuing the exfoliation process. The last step of the Zoe Three-Step Crystal Exfoliation is our microdermabrasion scrub, the smallest crystal which will polish the skin and leave it ultra-smooth. Zoe Provisions, we recommend our Zoe Three-Step Crystal Exfoliation be, used twice a week. At Zoe Provisions we have seen the dramatic results of our Three-Step Crystal Exfoliation System even at the first experience. Zoe Provisions recommends our Zoe Seekers to follow up with one of each of our Zoe Facial Serums, L’Chaim Eye Serum, and Facial Mist. The power of the Zoe exfoliated skin is magnified and attainable thus leaving the skin polished, ultra-smooth and radiant. “Living with a Zoe Glow!” The benefits of a Zoe Three-Step Exfoliation are: 1) having smoother and polished skin 2) your skin will glow, radiate and be brighter 3) rid your skin of dull, dead skin cells 4) reduce pore size 5) increase skin's collagen production 6) increase circulation, cellular turnover, and lymphatic drainage 7) assist in preventing breakouts, acne, whiteheads, and blackheads 8) lighten dark spots and even out skin tone 9) your skincare products will absorb deeper 10) when applying makeup, it will glide on

Why Zoe Provisions uses cane sugar instead of white sugar? Firstly, cane sugar is healthier than white sugar because it is closer to the actual plant. This means that it took less steps from the sugar cane to what is in your spoon than white sugar. Secondly, cane sugar has more nutrient dense properties in each sugar crystal than white sugar. Thirdly, brown sugar is not cane sugar; it is a mixture of white sugar with molasses, a deep brown syrup. Fourthly, white, conventional, granulated or table sugar goes through a process of melting down cane sugar twice which takes away the minerals and brown shade. Later the mass is re-crystalized thus making sucrose and increasing the levels of sulfur dioxide which is not good for the body in high levels. Another name for white sugar would be double crystalized sugar. Fifthly, the sugar cane plant, it is crushed to release the cane sugar juices then cleaned with steam with the use of a centrifuge. Cane sugar is made by a single crystallization process. The beautiful and rich cane sugar is Zoe Provisions’ choice for superior exfoliation. Zoe Provisions Exfoliation System is to exfoliate your skin two times a week with our Zoe Trio Exfoliation System of Cane Sugar Scrub, Sea Salt Scrub and Microdermabrasion Scrub offered in all our five Zoe Skincare Lines of Hayat, Liv, Vida, Vita and Zivot. Using Zoe Provisions’ novel concept of three different crystal sized exfoliators, we recommend beginning with the largest crystal scrub of cane sugar exfoliator first and work your way down to the finest polish of our microdermabrasion exfoliator. This will gently peel off layers of dead skin and leave the new skin radiant, glowing, and ultra-polished. When caring on your skin, the focus is on using both gentle speed and gentle pressure in circular motions. Our Zoe Cane Sugar Exfoliator uses the power of nature in the cane sugar crystals, avocado oil, and essential oils. The granular crystals of the cane sugar provide a gentle exfoliant and the process of exfoliation increases blood circulation. Cane sugar is also a natural humectant which means it offers some hydration to the skin. Additionally, cane sugar has naturally occurring glycolic acid and alpha hydroxy acid (AHA). Glycolic acid assist with skin dryness, aging, and sun-damage. Alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) impulses the skin to regenerate quicker, called cell turnover, which improves the appearance of the skin. Review our Zoe Blog to find out the ten benefits of exfoliation the Zoe way! Reminder: Use a spoon to scoop out a small amount of your Zoe Exfoliators so bacteria does not enter the container, therefore, avoid the use of your fingers. During your twice a week Zoe Trio Exfoliation System make sure you do not wash with your Zoe Goat’s Milk Soap Bar right before your exfoliation process because instead of being a three-step exfoliation, it would have turned into a four-step exfoliation. This is too much exfoliation for one time and your face would be left very tender, therefore, it is not recommended for Zoe Seekers to do. However, our Zoe Goat’s Milk Soap Bar is fabulous for daily cleansing of the skin from your face and body. Although Zoe Provisions does not make any products to consume, we find it very helpful to educate our Zoe Seekers so they can take Zoe or life to every area of life. The sweetness found in sugary products are alarming because they are found in many food products and in high levels. Sugar levels are dramatically higher now than some years ago. “Refined white sugar is a prominent cause of deteriorating human health. Do you know, 1 teaspoon of white sugar can reduce your immunity by over fifty percent for the next five hours? Excess sugar intake gives rise to acidity, obesity, diabetes, hypertension, heart diseases. It can also cause brain attacks and paralysis in extreme cases.” (www.ayurvedum.com/white-sugar-is-white-poison/). This is alarming because we can easily become immune to rising sugar levels. A study done some years ago that studied the effect of sugar on the brain showed the same area of the brain light up like that of a person who took cocaine. The study concluded that sugar sent addictive signals to the brain just as cocaine addiction did. This was truly impacting because it is easy to get our taste buds used to sugar, therefore, when natural fruit no longer gives our tongue a sweet sensation, beware.

Beware of synthetic fragrances and how they affect you. Synthetic fragrances can be very toxic because synthetic chemicals are used to achieve the scent. Synthetic scents can cause skin rashes, headaches, dizziness, eye irritations, allergies, asthma attacks, and nausea. This is your body’s signaling that you are being intoxicated by this scent. Your skin it is very important because anything that touches your skin takes 3 seconds to get into your blood stream. This includes things such as creams, lotions, perfumes, cosmetics, laundry detergents, and household cleaning products. Therefore, be aware and very conscious about the ingredients you are allowing to meet your skin. (draxe.com/beauty/natural-skin-care/). Laundry Detergents: Consider laundry detergents, in many cases they are filled of pungent smells that can last for weeks if not months. This is frightening because clothes that have been launder over one month ago should not smell as strong as just laundered. Traditional laundry detergents are full of toxic chemicals like surfactants which can cause hormonal imbalances, cancer, and asthma. These chemicals stay within the fibers of the fabric that will leach onto the skin then into your blood stream. It has been noted how synthetic scents can be causing skin rashes, headaches, dizziness, eye irritations, allergies, asthma attacks, and nausea. This is your body’s signaling that you are being intoxicated by this scent. “A report by the National Academy of Sciences reveals that approximately 95 percent of the chemicals used in synthetic fragrances are derived from petroleum or crude oil. These are carcinogenic benzene derivatives, aldehydes, toluene, and other toxic chemicals which are linked to cancer, birth defects, allergic reactions, and central nervous system disorders.” (draxe.com/beauty/homemade-laundry-soap/). Perfumes: Many store-bought perfumes are full of phthalates which are synthetic fragrances. Instead of taking natural essences of nature, synthetic chemicals are used to mimic nature and can wreak havoc on your body such as your hormonal balance. (draxe.com/health/europe-bans-toxic-fragrance-ingredient/). One easy way to determine if your perfume has phthalates is look of the bottom of the bottle, if it has a recycle number 3 on it, then it has phthalates (luxbeautary.com/does-all-fragrance-contain-phthalates/). The term of “fragrance” or “parfum” is a coined word that the definition could be a varied mixture of synthetic chemicals. Synthetic scents can cause skin rashes, headaches, dizziness, eye irritations, allergies, asthma attacks, and nausea. This is your body’s signaling that you are being intoxicated by this scent. Zoe Seeker if you use perfumes, please apply onto your clothing instead of directly onto your skin. Cosmetics: Cosmetics are unique and for this reason it is very important to read the labels. This includes makeup, skincare, haircare products and nailcare products. Toxic ingredients are easy to come by in many brands. One reason for this is the United States is not as picky as the European Union regarding the use of chemicals with bad reputations such as mercury and lead. Imagine the use of formaldehyde in cosmetics, which is used as well as most known for its use in embalming of dead corpses! Read, read, please read your labels. One helpful tip is an ingredient list longer than 20 ingredients is typically worthy of avoiding. Usually, the longer the ingredient list is the more synthetics and harmful ingredients it contains. Beware because “parfum” and “fragrance” ingredients are commonly found in cosmetics. Listen to your body especially when getting a headache from using a new product, it could very well be in “fragrance” or “parfum” in the ingredient list that your body is rejecting. (draxe.com/beauty/diy-foundation-makeup/). Household Cleaning: I know that sodium hypochlorite or bleach is a commonly used for cleaning and disinfecting. However, bleach has been known to irritate your eyes, skin, and lungs. If you were a scientist in a laboratory, you would wear safety glasses, gloves, and mask then would with the liquid over a hooded vent. Many times, I have seen people clean with these types of harsh chemicals without as little as gloves to protect themselves from these chemicals. Useful, just as powerful, and non-toxic alternatives for cleaning are available and others can be made at home like vinegar mixed with water, Castille soap (soap concentrate), and plant-based products. Consider using essential oils to give fragrance to your home and continue to use non-toxic detergents as well as household cleaning products. There are many laundry detergents and household cleaning products widely available that use essential oils to give fragrance instead of synthetic fragrances. Essential oils are a fabulous way to bring nature into cleaning; not only bringing a wonderful smell to your home but also bringing the powerful cleansing oils especially citrus and tea tree oils. (draxe.com/health/natural-cleaning-products/). Zoe Provisions desires each Zoe Seeker to live long, love life and bring heaven to your skin!

Zoe Provisions Skincare Products come in five different Zoe essential oil combinations of Hayat, Liv, Vida, Vita and Zivot. The human body has ten trillion cells of this six trillion are skin cells. Every hour about thirty-five thousand cells falls off. In one day of twenty-four hours, this number jumps to one million skin cells. The skin is composed of three different layers: the hypodermis (bottom), dermis (middle), and epidermis (top). The epidermis is what we see, feel, and can touch which is called the epidermal stratum corneum. It is typically what we think of when we think of skin. The way new skin grows is from the bottom area of the epidermis. It takes one month for the new skin cells to reach the top layer which can be touched. Setting aside two days a week to exfoliate your skin with our Zoe Trio Exfoliation System of Cane Sugar Scrub, Sea Salt Scrub and Microdermabrasion Scrub. This will gently peel off layers of dead skin and leave the new skin radiant, glowing, and ultra-polished. With Zoe Provisions novel concept of three different crystal sized scrubs, we start with the largest crystal scrub first and gently work our way down to the finest polish. You can think of it like sanding down a piece of wood, you start with the largest grit of sandpaper and go down to the smallest grit. However, and obviously when working on our skin the focus is on using both gentle speed and gentle pressure in circular motions. As a reminder, in the moment that you do your Zoe Trio Exfoliation System make sure you do not wash with your Zoe Goat’s Milk Soap Bar because instead of being a three-step exfoliation it would have turned into a four-step exfoliation. This is too much exfoliation for one moment and your face would be left very tender, therefore, it is not recommended for Zoe Seekers to do. For this reason, Zoe Provisions is passionate about educating our Life Seekers as well as newcomers about the importance of skin exfoliation. In the art of exfoliation, dead skin cells are sloughed off and leaving radiant skin. The benefits of exfoliation are: (1) having smoother and polished skin, (2) your skin will glow, radiate and be brighter, (3) rid your skin of dull, dead skin cells, (4) reduce pore size, (5) increase skin's collagen production, (6) increase circulation, cellular turnover, and lymphatic drainage, (7) assist in preventing breakouts, acne, whiteheads, and blackheads, (8) lighten dark spots and even out skin tone, (9) your skincare products will absorb deeper, (10) when applying makeup, it will glide on. Zoe Provisions has perfected the art of exfoliation in different levels.

Zoe Provisions has its fundamental building block in our Zoe Skincare Line which is our Zoe Facial Serum is unique. This unique Zoe building block will easily go onto your skin and will replace the need for a traditional moisturizer. Many other formulators use water, waxes, alcohols, and fillers in their formulations. We offer an anhydrous formulation; it is a fancy name for a formulation without water. The base of our Zoe Facial Serum is the highest grade of olive oil. It is organic, unrefined, cold pressed, and from Greece. There are many different varieties of olives that can be made into olive oil. The olive oil we use is filled with monounsaturated fats, high levels of polyphenols, and full of naturally occurring antioxidants. This means that our olive oil will help prevent and decrease inflammation. Moreover, our Greek olives are Koroneiki Olives from the Koroni region of Greece. It is considered the “queen of olives.” There are more than one thousand different olives that can be used for its luxurious oil. The top selling countries that export olive oil is Spain, Italy, and Greece. Other countries have widened the market by offering olive oil from New Zealand, Chile, and United States, specifically California. On a deeper note, not all olive oils are the same. For instance, in one bottle of olive oil there can be different types of olives or just one type of olive. Next time you are in the market for olive oil, take some time to analyze it thoroughly. To preserve the important properties of olive oil, it needs to be stored in a dark glass bottle to prevent light from damaging it. If the olive oil you purchase is in a plastic container, the beneficial properties can be compromised even if in a dark colored plastic container. Secondly, read the label carefully because olive oil is a very lucrative market, and some companies take short cuts to increase their profits. On the back of the label, look at the country/countries where the olive oil is coming from because there can be a mix of different olive oils from various countries. It is better if you purchase olive oil from one region of a country versus different regions or multiple countries. At times, some companies can even mix different plant oils and put on the label in a large font “olive oil” and in a small font “along with other oils.” Make sure to store your olive oil in a cool, dark place when not in use. Another helpful tip for when using olive oil in eating is use it at room temperature and not to heat up by cooking it. At Zoe Provisions our Zoe Facial Serum formulations come in five different Zoe scent options of Hayat, Liv, Vida, Vita, and Zivot. Our Zoe Facial Serums are easy to travel with as long as you wrap it to secure it from abrupt drops. Our different Zoe Facial Serum options offer different Zoe essential oil combinations of 100% organic essential oils. These Zoe essential oil combinations target different skin imbalances. Essential oils are fabulous for balancing out skin imbalances naturally such as redness, wrinkles, dryness, oiliness, sun damage, etc. With different Zoe Seekers having different experiences with scents, we have formulated five different Zoe Facial Serums to match the scent preference of each of our Zoe Seekers. Loving life with Zoe Provisions!

The Oxford Dictionary explains dynamite as "a high explosive consisting of nitroglycerine mixed with an absorbent material and typically molded into sticks." Nature has its own powerful dynamite called essential oils! The Bible refers to precious oils 188 times. Additionally, in ancient times, oils and spices had great value. Essential oils are the super concentration of a plant, seed, peelings, bark, fruit, or root. Plants and fruits are full of benefits which they produce such as fragrance, antioxidants, anti-fungal protection, and anti-bacterial protection. These plants and fruits have protective benefits from the sun and pests. Zoe Provisions has focused its skincare line on these amazing benefits found in nature that propels our skincare into the transformation of your skin! Focusing on some specific essential oils, citrus essential oils have special properties, one of them is Vitamin P, which helps circulation from a microscopic level by oxygenating capillary beds. This process helps the body recover quicker from stress. Also, citrus essential oils have anti-microbial properties that stunt of the growth of bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Better circulation means healthier skin resulting in brighter skin, smoother skin, and a reduction of wrinkles. Orange essential oil has anti-spasmodic properties that helps to draw out metabolic waste which if not disposed of can cause spasms.

Zoe Provisions has captured skin success through its innovative approach to exfoliation. Did you know your largest organ in your body? It is your skin. The skin offers a first layer of protection against foreign invaders. For this reason, most people have the practice of caring for the skin when it is exposed like in the event of a cut. The skin is composed of three different layers: the hypodermis (bottom), dermis (middle), and epidermis (top). The epidermis is what we see, feel, and can touch which is called the epidermal stratum corneum. It is typically what we think of when we think of skin. The way new skin grows is from the bottom area of the epidermis. It takes one month for the new skin cells to reach the top layer which can be touched. The human body has ten trillion cells of this six trillion are skin cells. Every hour about thirty-five thousand cells falls off. In one day of twenty-four hours, this number jumps to one million skin cells. This is probably why the chore of dusting seems to be never ending because some of the dust around us is a mixture of dead skin cells. This sounds gruesome but is part of being alive. For this reason, Zoe Provisions is passionate about educating our Life Seekers as well as newcomers about the importance of skin exfoliation. In the art of exfoliation, dead skin cells are sloughed off and leaving radiant skin. Zoe Provisions has perfected the art of exfoliation in different levels. First, by offering its Zoe Goat’s Milk Soap Bars which provide a gentle exfoliation as well as cleansing of the skin. The Zoe Goat’s Milk Soap Bars are strong enough to even cleanse off skin with makeup; yet gentle enough that it does not strip the skin leaving it stiff. Our Zoe Bars have two forms of goat’s milk which has exfoliative properties because of the lactic acid as well as alpha hydroxy acid. The addition of our Himalayan Pink Salt offers the gifting of eighty-four different minerals plus an added exfoliative element. The plant materials in three of our four Zoe Goat’s Milk Soap Bars layers on another level of exfoliation. The four different combinations of essential oils in our four Zoe Goat’s Milk Soap Bars of Fall, Winter, Summer, and Spring provides further skin support such as assisting in skin repair. Secondly, Zoe Provisions offers uniquely our Three-Step Crystal Exfoliation System available in five different scent collections of Hayat, Liv, Vida, Vita and Zivot. Zoe Provisions has conducted much research into the ingredients as well as production of our Three-Step Crystal Exfoliation. The concept behind the Zoe Three-Step Crystal Exfoliation System is in our understanding of skin and how to best exfoliate it. By incorporating the use of three different sized crystals, the power of exfoliated skin is magnified and attainable thus leaving the skin polished, ultra-smooth and radiant. At Zoe Provisions, we recommend our Three-Step Crystal Exfoliation used once-twice a week. We suggest using a warm washcloth applied to the skin to open the skin’s pores in preparation for exfoliation. Beginning with our largest crystal, our cane sugar scrub, applied gently and with circular motions is best to begin to exfoliate off the dead skin cells. It is important to note to make sure especially at this step you are extra gentle while exfoliating because of the size of the large crystals. Next, it is followed by the second step, our sea salt scrub, this medium sized sugar crystal is noticeably smaller than the previous, thus continuing the exfoliation process. The last step of the Three-Step Crystal Exfoliation is our microdermabrasion scrub, the smallest crystal which will polish the skin and leave it ultra-smooth. At Zoe Provisions we have seen the dramatic results of our Three-Step Crystal Exfoliation System even at the first experience. Zoe Provisions recommends following with one of our Facial Serums, L’Chaim Eye Serum, and Facial Mist. We know it will be beneficial for you, too! Now that we have understood the how Zoe Provisions uses exfoliation, let’s learn why it is so important. The benefits of exfoliation are: (1) having smoother and polished skin, (2) your skin will glow, radiate and be brighter, (3) rid your skin of dull, dead skin cells, (4) reduce pore size, (5) increase skin's collagen production, (6) increase circulation, cellular turnover, and lymphatic drainage, (7) assist in preventing breakouts, acne, whiteheads, and blackheads, (8) lighten dark spots and even out skin tone, (9) your skincare products will absorb deeper, (10) when applying makeup, it will glide on. Zoe Provisions believes in the power of natural and organic products fueled by natural and organic ingredients. We believe each Life Seeker will see, smell, and experience their skin uniquely with Zoe Provisions’ Products!

Within nature there is an abundance of wealth, which can be accessible by humanity to also benefit from this treasure. I believe God created the world and supplied it with things that will keep the life cycle going. When humanity can tap into this abundance of nature, we are at a greater advantage. Imagine a vibrant plant, obviously, it has all the resources it needs to thrive in order to be vibrant. Within this image that you have created in your mind, think of the lush colors...an array of green colors on the plant's stems and leaves. If your imagined plant is a flowering plant, then focus in on its varying colors on each petal. Now, inside this plant that you have imagined, there are many processes happening internally in order to have it grow continually, ward off pests, receive adequate sunlight and protecting the plant from not getting sun scorched. When essential oils are used in skincare, amazing things happen because the plant's vibrant gifts are housed in tiny droplets which are compact with many beneficial gifts for the skin as well as body. These beneficial gifts come in the form of reparative, restorative, and preventative effects which result in a domino effect of overall skin transformation. Zoe Provisions has understood this and developed a unique skincare line that taps into nature as to access this wealth. Let Zoe Provisions offer its passion and expertise for you to experience our Zoe Skincare which will bring heaven to your skin! Conveniently available in five Zoe options of Liv, Hayat, Vida, Vita and Zivot. Each unique blend of essential oil combinations are designed for overall skin transformation as well as combat skin imbalances. Which Zoe Provisions Product will you try today? As always, we salute every choice each Life Seeker makes to have a long and prosperous life! We say "L'Chaim" or life cheers to every change and adjustment each Life Seeker makes that continues life giving/renewing habits. Life is contagious and we desire for our habits to rub off on our family, friends and acquaintances. Here is to a long "Zoe!"

Essential oils are fabulous for many reasons such as diffusing them into the air to purify your home. Zoe Provisions has discovered through fairs and speaking to Life Seekers (our customers) that many people have heard the term essential oils but may not truly be familiar with them. We have come to understand that many people are familiar with fragrance oils which are very different than essential oils. Fragrance oils are synthetic; meaning they arrive to its scent by mixing synthetic chemicals with natural components to achieve a most potent result. Fragrance oils are commonly found in creams, perfumes, body sprays, candles, soaps and even laundry detergents. Have you ever wondered why a laundry detergent scent can last in your clean clothes for weeks and months? Or why a watermelon flavored candy does not taste like a real watermelon? It is the artificial flavorings and synthetic additives. At Zoe Provisions we find that a bit alarming. In turn, essential oils are made by taking raw plant material, distilling it and being left with a small portion of what was began with. In some examples of plants, you might need to start with 80 pounds of plant material in order to extract 5 ounces of essential oil. That's a big job but it is very worth it because of the reward! Typically a small amount of an essential oil goes a long way because of the concentration process called distillation. So essential oils are the concentrated plant's powerhouse of protection such as from the sun or against outside invaders. Zoe Provisions loves the many benefits of each essential oil, therefore, they are used in every product we provide. Zoe Provisions does not categorize its products by skin type or skin issue because of the power of essential oils. Like we stated previously, one essential oil has multiple benefits for the skin/body and each Zoe Provisions product has at least three essential oils. If you would like anti-breakout benefits, the essential oils of lavender, orange, lemon, tea tree, peppermint, cedarwood, cinnamon, eucalyptus, patchouli, everlasting Corsica Helichrysum, neroli, lemongrass, bergamot and frankincense are fabulous. If you would like anti-aging benefits, the essential oils of frankincense, lavender, rose, cedarwood, everlasting Corsica Helichrysum, eucalyptus, neroli, lemongrass, patchouli, and bergamot are wonderful. If you have dry skin, the essential oils of lavender and sandalwood would be great to have in your skincare routine. The essential oils of rosemary, frankincense and neroli are good for oily skin. If you have sensitive skin, the essential oils of lavender, frankincense and sandalwood are good to have in your collection. For skin rashes, the essential oils of peppermint, wintergreen, eucalyptus, lavender, cinnamon, and patchouli are beneficial. The essential oils of lavender, Helichrysum, frankincense and peppermint are great at replenish and nourishing the effects of sun exposure by reducing inflammation, moisturizing dry skin and help fade dark spots. Zoe Provisions has you, the Life Seeker, in mind when coming up with each essential oil combination. Fortunately, each Zoe Provision Collection has at least one of these in the essential oil combination. Some Life Seekers, our customers, have been asking about our sunscreen product. In order for Zoe Provisions to stand behind its products, it is critical of what makes it up and not use chemicals like oxybenzone. A good sunscreen has a high percentage of either titanium dioxide or zinc dioxide. These are very white and most people do not want to look ghostly white. Think of a high quality diaper rash cream...the main ingredient usually is zinc oxide. So many companies dilute their sunscreen product recipe down in order to make it agreeable with its consumers. Did you know that there are oils that have natural sunscreen protection? Some of these are coconut oil, shea butter, carrot seed oil, avocado oil, olive oil, almond oil and raspberry seed oil. Presently, Zoe Provisions uses coconut oil, avocado oil, shea butter, and olive oil in its products. Hooray for Zoe Provisions that genuinely cares for each Life Seeker and desires to bring heaven to your skin! Now getting a better concept of all these points, in order to decide what Zoe Provisions collection will be best for you preference is deciding what scents you most prefer. If you prefer a neutral scent with a hint of floral notes, then the Hayat Collection might be your best choice because of the orange, tea tree, nutmeg, rosemary, eucalyptus, lemongrass and cinnamon. If you prefer scents of airiness with a touch of mint, then the Liv Collection might be your best choice because of the eucalyptus, lavender, orange, tea tree, wintergreen, everlasting Corsica Helichrysum and Japanese mint. If you prefer a stronger earthy scent, then the Vida Collection might be your best choice because of the petitgrain, cedarwood, neroli, frankincense and sandalwood. If you prefer sweet and citrus scents with a touch of earthiness, then the Vita Collection might be your best choice because of the lavender, orange, bergamot, and sweet marjoram. If you prefer sweet, citrus and minty scents, then the Zivot Collection might be your best choice because of the grapefruit, orange, lavender, rosemary, cypress, peppermint, frankincense and spearmint.
