The Lightweight Anti-Aging Moisturizer that will make your senses sing

Why clients are raving about the subtle yet delicious scent of the Joanna Vargas Daily Hydrating Cream (and the science behind it.) There is no fragrance added to our Daily Hydrating Cream but a few key skin-loving ingredients found inside create a subtle and seductive scent of wellness. It is the hint of sage, coconut oil and lemongrass that create the amazing aroma and the aromatherapy benefits of these three whispering scents are infinite. Let us take you on a brief journey of the power of scent and how it works in our popular moisturizer. First and foremost, what exactly is aromatherapy? The application of scented or aromatic plant material extracts to enhance the harmonizing and holistic healing process of mind and body. Rubbing fragrant substances into our skin has been an act of therapeutic and luxurious self-love since the beginning of time. Cleopatra had her own perfume workshop. Marie-Antoinette had her own perfumer, Jean-Louis Fargeon, to create a scent for her collection of moods. Did you know Mary Magdalene is considered the patron saint of perfumers? Your sense of smell can ignite a beautiful awakening, catapulting you to find yourself fully in the moment. Scent commands your attention, washing away the distractions of the day. As Mandy Aftel’s Essence and Alchemy reminds us, “To inspire, after all, is literally “to breath in.” Her other lovely book, The Secret Life of Scent, further points out, “We close our eyes - we do this instinctively before we inhale a scent, as if preparing for the internal journey.” To be taken by scent, even if only for a moment while applying our skincare products can transcend you to a place of peace of mind.

Joanna Vargas Daily Hydrating Cream, a light weight moisturizer and an anti-aging moisturizer

Here is how the three key ingredients that cause the heaven-sent scent of our Daily Hydrating Cream can improve your health and well being instantly:

Sage: A mood booster that aids in stress relief. The smell of this wonderful herb promotes stimulation of the mind and can address mental fatigue and depression. It is considered the sweetheart of aromatherapy for its ability to calm, revitalize and balance us. Many people will use sage in their homes to cleanse the air as well. Sage’s medicinal properties have been championed for thousands of years. This special herb is loaded with calcium and vitamin A, which protects your skin against free radicals and lends a hand to daily cell regeneration, ultimately preventing and diminishing wrinkles. The word Sage is derived from the latin word ‘salvere,’ which means ‘to save.’

Coconut Oil: This all-purpose multi-tasking gift from mother nature works magnitudes of magic for the skin. Coconut’s sweet scent can boost your energy levels, while its skin-penetration increases blood circulation, which accelerates the healing process. It is also antibacterial and anti-fungal, making it a moisturizer that is safe for acne-prone skin. Packed with Vitamin E and known to protect skin cells from damage over time, coconut oil will also combat wrinkles from forming and strengthen skin tissue.

Lemongrass: The citrusy aroma of one of nature’s finest ingredients is used in aromatherapy for its ability to revitalize the body, mind and spirit by bringing them together as one. Meanwhile, lemongrass is an astringent and antiseptic that strengthens skin tissue, toning and sterilizing the pores. It also contains antioxidant qualities that help to protect skin cells from oxygen-derived free radicals. Lemongrass helps to tighten, uplift and firm your skin leaving it supple and smoother than ever.

The Joanna Vargas Daily Hydrating Cream ($75) will make your senses sing in more ways than one. The fluffy, lightness of this cream smoothly rubbing into your skin is a wonderful feeling. Take a moment to be sure your boudoir or bathroom serves as a sanctuary of relaxation by making it a quiet place. As you apply your Daily Hydrating Cream, try closing your eyes for a moment of pure peace and clearing of the mind before you take on or close out the day. Allow the aromatherapy benefits of our moisturizer take you away and truly live in the moment. Of our five senses, it is said that scent makes us feel most alive and is directly connected to our mood and emotions.
