Sabrina – The Brunette Ecoholic

This week’s The Perks of JAVA installment introduces us to Sabrina (known as Brie to friends and family), The Brunette Ecoholic. Brie has a passion for Eco-conscious and balanced living.  This passion not only drives her to research the skincare products that she uses for herself and her family but also to share this information so that we can all benefit.

Here are Brie’s answers to our JAVA questionnaire:

How do you take your coffee? I like stevia and almond milk in my coffee

What is your astrological sign? I am an Aquarius – which means I am loyal, curious, and imaginative. It also means I can be unpredictable and a little all over the place (or as my husband likes to say – I have “oooh shiny syndrome“)! lol

A little history of your blog? I started my blog when I was recovering from major back surgery. I wanted to create a space where I could not only share my love & passion for clean, eco-conscious and balanced living but to also share my life-long skin issues and what has (and hasn’t) helped.What in green beauty are you passionate about right now? For me, it’s all about skin care. I love makeup and am so impressed with all of the options we now have in the green beauty world (and that are just as good, if not better than conventional), but in my opinion, if your skin looks unhealthy or is having major issues, all the makeup in the world won’t make much difference!

What is your favorite JAVA Skin Care product? Do I have to just pick one? The lip product junkie in me loves the lip scrub & lip balm, but I also adore the body serum!

Any tip on how you use it? The body serum I apply right as I get out of the shower while my skin is still damp. I find that oils seem to absorb better & more deeply without a greasy feel when skin is wet.

Have a great week!

Camille – Serial Outfit Repeater

This week finds us in Nashville, Tennessee, “Music City” of America and home to a  growing number of fashion designers. Meet Camille, fashion blogger known as Serial Outfit Repeater, for her unique perspectives and insights into today’s fashions.
 
How do you take your coffee?
I love all types of coffee! It really depends on the day. If I’m on the go and need a quick pick-me-up, a cortado is my choice of beverage, but if I have a little more time, I love relaxing with an almond milk latte. I recently tried a latte made with golden turmeric milk and that may be my favorite.
 
What is your astrological sign?
A Gemini, so I have multiple sides – as indicated by my multiple coffee preferences.
 
A little history of your blog?
The title of my blog is Serial Outfit Repeater, and it’s based on fashion for the everyday woman. There’s this stigma in fashion that you can’t wear the same thing twice, but that’s just not realistic in real life. I love having a wardrobe reduced to simple pieces as they all mix and match better and make it easy to get ready in the morning.
 
What in green beauty are you passionate about right now?
I love the organic sheet face masks that are popular right now. They look silly, but they really refresh my skin. I also love the Java product line – all of their products smell heavenly.
 
What is your favorite JAVA product?
That’s a hard choice! The serum really brings my beauty routine to a whole new level – after I shave, I apply the serum before I moisturize for glowing skin. The lip balm is also a really beautiful shade of plum. And, like I said, all of the products make me smell amazing!
 
Any tip on how you use it?
Use the coffee body scrub before you shave, then the serum to moisturize for beautiful skin.

JAVA’s Five Key Ingredients

JAVA SKin Care wants your skin to look and feel glorious in a pure, healthy all-natural way. That is why we incorporate five key all-natural ingredients to “awaken your natural beauty” in a kind,  java-loving way.

d-022114-109

 

Our first key ingredient is Green Coffee (organic arabica coffee bean). It is the signature ingredient found in every JAVA Skin Care product. Cold-pressed green coffee bean extract is one of the most potent antioxidants found on earth to rejuvenate and smooth your skin. It is responsible for reducing the visibility of scar tissue, acne, and wrinkles by bringing the elasticity back into your skin!

The second key ingredient is Artisan Roasted Coffee – roasted right in our own little coffee shop! The caffeine in the roasted coffee beans is key to minimizing red, puffy dry skin and transforming the skin’s appearance into healthy, vibrant skin (not to mention it detoxes).

The third key ingredient is Organic Argan Oil also known as a “miracle ingredient” in the skin care world. Pressed from the nut of the Argan tree in Morocco, argan oil penetrates your skin with moisture while reducing any skin irritation you might have. The argan oil works on all types of skin, no matter the time of year, to make you and your skin glow!
The fourth key insweetalmondoil_smallgredient is Sweet Almond Oil that is created from a cold press process to keep it loaded with vitamins and antioxidants to fix skin disorders such as wrinkles, acne, stretch-marks and cellulite. This Sweet Almond Oil adds an all natural fragrance to JAVA that makes you smell glorious as well.

Last but not least, the fifth key ingredient is Safflower Oil. This oil allows the moisture to not
only cling to your skin, but also lock in the moisture without clogging pores! Trust me, your skin will thank you!

 

JAVA wants you to feel & look beautiful without the harmful chemicals, dyes and fragrances.

Healthy Clean for You… And Your Backyard!

d-070714_167

Whether you are a city dweller, live on acres of farmland or have a sprawling backyard in the suburbs, an outdoor shower is certain to appeal to you summertime sensibilities. For sandy feet, muddy dogs, or a  cool spritz on your skin,  a refreshing, eco-friendly shower is perfect on a hot day or under a starlit sky.

But if we are IMG_5772showering in the beautiful outdoors, then we should be as kind to the environment as we are to our bodies, right?

lip scrub and lake

 

 

Most store bought body products we use in the shower are filled with harsh chemicals, irritants, artificial ingredients, dyes, colorants, fragrances and non-biodegradable micro-beads. These ingredients  are not only destructive to  beautiful skin but also to the surrounding environment: the soil the water we drink and bathe in. By using eco-friendly bath products (nudge, nudge, JAVA Skin Care), the water from your outdoor shower  isn’t harmful to your gardens, lawns, pets, wildlife, water systems or your skin.

The JAVA Body Bar and JAVA Body Scrub are made from all-natural plant-based ingredients to make your skin happy and smooth.  It is textured with biodegradable exfoliating properties created by the addition of roasted coffee.

Bath Wash Waterfall

Don’t think you’re being fooled by the honey gold color of JAVA Body Wash.. It contains NO harmful dyes and ONLY natural color and fragrances from coffee extracts, argan oil and sweet almond oils. Your skin and your garden will thank you for such wonderful treatment!

Since your already outside, don’t worry about drying yourself off and dirtying another towel, lather on the JAVA Body Serum on your damp skin and let it soak in all the moisture it can get.

Use JAVA Skin Care products to be sure the environment and your skin are JAVA ready for your outdoor shower.
