Matter Company… It’s One of A Kind!

November 23, 2010 By Lena

Because caring for yourself while looking after our environment matters, I’d like to introduce –

“At Matter Company, we embrace a holistic approach to personal care which recognizes the relationship between our natural environment and our physical and emotional well being.”

Created and nurtured by certified Therapeutic Herbalist Denise Williams, Matter Company has remained at the forefront of natural skin care products. All of the products are formulated following contemporary phytotherapy principles, with the end result being gentle, invigorating (and of course, eco-friendly) bath and beauty products.

“Each formula is slow-cooked for up to 24 hours, to extract the essential properties of the botanical formulation into the product. Our traditional methods of extraction preserve their beneficial properties and all recipes are made in small batches to ensure the highest quality. To complete every formula, we infuse a unique blend of essential oils. This pure fragrance enhances the total experience of using our products by adding the benefits of aromatherapy.”

Matter Company offers three distinct collections: Outdoors, Mom & Baby and Blush.

The Outdoors collection boasts such essential products as SPF 30 Lotion, Hand Creme, Lip Balm, Biodegradable Hand Soap and Bath Salts – all designed to protect naturally against the elements while moisturizing, soothing and preserving your skin’s natural oils.

Perhaps most interesting is the All Heal Salve: Natural protection from the wear and tear of the elements. Soothes, smoothes and revitalizes irritated skin. For cuts and scrapes, cracked heels, even doggie paws.

Of course, since baby Reid is currently balancing on my lap as I type, I’m drawn to the Mom & Baby line – which includes beautifully-packaged products just perfect for a new mom this Christmas, including a Mineral Soak, Nappy Rash Ointment, Baby Creme, Herbal Sitz Bath and more.

And finally, pamper yourself with Matter Company’s Blush line. I’m particularly excited by the Sugar Scrub – with inspired ingredients and the addition of florals, it’s like no one I’ve ever encountered…

An invigorating and restorative scrub packed full of decadent ingredients to restore the skin’s healthy glow. Brown sugar and real sumac berries gently exfoliate, while therapeutic calendula and vitamin E soothe sensitive skin. Also contained in the scrub is anti-oxidant formula  of peony and hibiscus blossoms which helps  to tone and beautify. Only a small handful is needed – rub into fatigues skin for luminous results!

You can visit Denise at the One of A Kind Christmas Show at booth R-38, or shop online. Shipping is free on orders of $200 or more.
