Return To Your Senses With Osmia -Natural Skincare Handcrafted In The Colorado Mountains

Returning to my senses with Osmia Organics. I love this natural skincare hand-crafted in the Colorado mountains!

A few faves:
Lavender Shea Soap- This lavender soap was created for their founder's friend, Alan, who wanted a very simple bar of soap - "without any stuff in it". Osmia uses spinach powder and French green clay to give a soft green hue, but the bar is very smooth and untextured in your hands. The beautifully subtle lavender smell comes from organic, Bulgarian lavender and balsam of Peru. The amazing skin-softening effect comes from the combination of organic olive oil, shea butter, coconut oil, and coconut milk. This bar is perfect for sensitive skin, young children, dry skin, and anyone else who wants a luxuriously simple bar of soap. 

For: All skin types. 

How: Use daily as needed. Best kept on a soap saver.


Spotless Blemish Oil- A surprisingly powerful blend of essential oils noticeably diminishes the appearance of blemishes, while evening primrose oil prevents over-drying and helps keep the top layer of skin cells healthy. Unlike most pimple solutions, this serum does not strip the skin of its oil, and does not leave blemishes flaky and crusty while healing.

Used early and often, our natural oil will act on blemishes even before they come to the surface fully, often preventing them from surfacing at all. Spotless Blemish Oil has a very pleasant, lemony scent (and no tea tree oil), making it a pleasure to use. Formerly known as Spot Treatment.

For: All skin types.  For extremely sensitive skin, do a patch test on the inner arm first to check for any adverse reaction.  

How: Apply to blemishes 3-5 times a day.  Do not apply this serum to the entire face - only to pimples!  Use this product as the last layer in your skin care routine, on top of all other products.  (You don't want to apply it under another product that requires spreading, as it could get spread over the face that way.) Don't be fooled by its tiny size - this will last a long time.

Nectar Vital Rose Drops- Nectar /'nekter/ n. The drink of the gods.

Nectar Vital Rose Drops might just become your new obsession. This beautiful serum is designed to bring a luxury boost to your favorite skincare products, like their Purely Simple Face Cream. With only eight ingredients, this 99.6% certified organic elixir will bring uncomplicated - and unparalleled - nourishment to your skin. By adding 3-4 drops of Nectar to your usual face cream or serum, you will notice that your skin is finally able to retain moisture throughout the day. Organic oils of safflower, argan, prickly pear, and pumpkin seed work together to create a powerfully softening blend with a smooth, silky texture. Gorgeous rosehip seed oil helps diminish the appearance of chronic sun damage. Organic rose otto essential oil combines with wild, Australian sandalwood essential oil, and a touch of jasmine extract to create a heaven-meets-earth scent. The aromatherapy effect is profound, as well, easing negative feelings and opening the heart to healing, grounding, and self-love.

Sound too good to be true?

Order a sample below and try before you commit to the full size - we think you'll love it, but it's easy (and affordable) to find out for yourself!

Purely Gentle Mud Cleanser-Who knew putting mud on your face could feel so extraordinary? Our Purely Gentle Mud Cleanser combines the deep cleansing power of glacial oceanic clay with organic aloe, chamomile, and honey to leave your skin clean, soft, and deliciously plump. With a creamy, mildly foamy texture and the earthy, mingled aromas of sandalwood, geranium, and three kinds of clay, this nourishing cleanser brings natural luxury to a new level.

Note: One bottle contains approximately 240 pumps of Mud Cleanser. When empty, please unscrew the metal cap and remove the inner bag to recycle the exterior glass container.

For: All skin types.

How: Use one or two times a day, with fingers or a facial cleansing device.  This product is formulated with natural preservatives, and should be used with clean hands to avoid contamination.

Black Clay Facial Soap- Osmia’s best selling soap, made with Black Australian clay and Dead Sea mud to balance and tone the skin. Organic almond, avocado, and castor bean oils condition the skin, leaving it soft and nourished. Coconut milk helps create the beautiful, white lather. This soap is safe to use if you have perioral dermatitis and is a soothing routine for acne-prone skin. Want to learn more about the magical facial soap? Check out their Black Clay Expose!

Don't be fooled by the tiny size of this soap. This 2.25 oz. black beauty will last 8-12 weeks, if cared for properly. Store in a dry place on a soap saver (or something like it).

For: Normal, problem, and combination skin. For extremely sensitive skin, try a test patch on your inner arm first - the dead sea mud can be mildly tingly.

How: Use one to two times daily. Rinse skin well and gently pat dry.

I am so happy they picked me to be apart of their ambassador program! I have loved this brand for a really long time and I am just over the moon for our new partnership.

THE OSMIA STORY

 Dr. Sarah Villafranco spent a decade practicing medicine in the emergency room where she witnessed a broad spectrum of health issues—along with an unsettling trend of resistance to treating the root causes of disease. Not long after Sarah relocated from the East Coast to Carbondale, Colorado, her mother was diagnosed with cancer, and she was gone just over a year later. With two young daughters of her own, Sarah was mourning the loss of her mom, but newly inspired to create a unique and meaningful path in her own life. On a whim, she signed up for a local soap making class.

Almost instantly, she reconnected with her passion for science—the same passion that led her to study medicine. In the weeks and months that followed, Sarah learned more about the chemistry of making natural soap, and became enchanted by the artistry of form, color, and scent that could be woven into the process. As she began to research the ingredients people were using on their skin every single day, a bigger idea took shape.

In 2012, Sarah founded Osmia with one simple mission: to energize people to engage in their own wellness through skin health and sensory experience. Rather than putting out fires in the emergency department, Sarah now hopes to create sparks of joy that inspire meaningful change. When people experience a gorgeous soap, a velvety body oil, or a nourishing lip balm made with effective, wholesome ingredients, perhaps a tiny seed is planted: I can have a positive, joyful effect on my own wellness, every day.

That’s some powerful medicine.
