They say that beauty is only skin deep; they say that you can’t judge a book by its cover. While these aphorisms may hold true over time, as an imperfect society of imperfect people, we don’t always give them the credence they deserve. We judge and are judged by outward appearances—and often the way we look strongly affects the way we feel and act in everyday life.
That being said, keeping up appearances is a daily task that most of us have accepted as a part of modern life. Thus, in this free natural beauty and organic skin care video series, learn some tips for keeping a youthful glow and smooth, supple skin. Our expert will explain the benefits of organic skin care products, especially how naturally occurring minerals and oils are much healthier for your skin, preventing the potentially harmful effects of artificial cleansers, toners and masks.

You may never be a fresh-faced youth again, but you can certainly look your best everyday with these natural, anti-aging skin care tips.
"Hi! I'm Shannon Neels from Le Reve Day Spa and we're here today with Expert Village, and today I'll be talking about organic products and we’ll be doing a facial. Hi! We're going to start out today talking a little bit about what is organic. Organic means that there are no chemicals or pesticides used. Something can be called natural, but that doesn't necessarily mean that it's organic. Something organic you can think of being great, but that doesn't necessarily mean that other additives were not added to that product. There's a lot of education and learning to do as far what is the best thing to buy as far as organic or natural. Here at Le Reve Day Spa we use only organic products in all of our treatments. Organic meaning that there are no chemicals or pesticides. We use other products that are natural products, but there are no chemical preservatives or artificial coloring or synthetic fragrances. So when shopping for products and deciding what to use, those are all very important things to consider. We want things to preferably be organic, we want no artificial chemicals preservatives, and we want no artificial fragrances or synthetic coloring. Those are the important things to look for when choosing products."
