I'd like to share a heartwarming story about a young mother and practicing naturopath.  Lise was desperate to find help for her six-month-old baby, Luke, suffering terribly with eczema, a most difficult skin condition to treat. Lise had tried everything. She was seeking an alternative to the prescribed steroid creams. Lise had heard about ‘Earth To Body’ by word of mouth.  We do not advertise nor make any claims about eczema on our products.  As a natural skin care cosmetic company, there are rules and regulations governing what we can and cannot say. We understand. Our products are pure and…

Time and time again, I hear ‘success’ testimonials from my customers. This next story is particularly heartfelt. Once again, ‘One of a Kind Christmas Show’. Toronto. My favorite show of the year. Non-stop! A young man walks in, a good looking guy, but seeming quite distraught. He selects one of the literature explanations we offer. I walk over to say hi. With no dilly-dallying, he asks, “Can you help me?”. He holds up his palms. His hands are covered in warts. Not just one or two, I’m saying 30 at least. I gasp, “My goodness! You poor thing.” He sighs, “I’m an artist. I can’t work. I can’t…

We have had many memorable encounters over the last 15 years. This one story will stick with me forever.  Such an experience keeps me going and what makes me love what I do so much. It takes place at the Edmonton Butterdome Signatures Craft Show. A Saturday and quite busy. The day just flies by. I finish up with a customer and go to grab a quick break. On my return a young girl comes in. Her baseball cap is low over her face.  She is hunched over. I say, “How are you today?”  She looks down but manages a small voiced “hello”.  I feel like I should leave her be but I can’t do that. Not in my…

In today’s market, toxic chemicals in skin care are among the least regulated.  If cosmetic companies are permitted to sell products labeled as ‘all natural’, how can you trust that you are getting pure skin nutrition?  The only way to know exactly what you are feeding your skin is by reading every ingredient and knowing the nutritional origin.  Earth to Body is a company you can count on. We don’t hide behind fancy names.  Most importantly, we care.  Each recipe is carefully formulated with specific skin needs in mind, using the finest organic and natural ingredients, selected worldwide. …

Emu Oil is used for so many ailments. We do not advertize it as such, but our customers do. I could talk about Emu Oil  'till the cows come home', for all of its amazing healing properties. What it’s done for me alone is a book of blogs. I use it cosmetically, regularly and love it more than any other product I have ever used.  But check out this story... It’s late afternoon, a hot day, almost uncomfortable. Dealing with a packed booth, loving my job as always. It is Windsor, Ontario at the Art In The Park.  Great show. Hundreds of vendors and the people of Windsor come, rain or shine.  Two…

The photo shown is not of the boy in the story. Recently a customer wrote to tell me that our  tooth cleanser had passed muster with her two boys.  I was thrilled and we both decided that they probably liked it because it WAS green and messy. I asked her to thank the boys for liking our tooth cleanser, as I knew it was a new experience for them. Here is her reply, “I just had to tell you this. When I got my little 7-year-old guy to try your tooth paste I had prepared the brush etc. and he tried it, but I wasn't sure what would come of it. When he came home from school today, I told him that…

Our toner’s a trooper.  It goes everywhere...home, gym, vacation, camping.  It does everything….nourishes, disinfects, calms, revitalizes.  Who couldn't love organic rosewater, vitamin C, sweet orange and lemon?  It seems one is never enough! “I use it daily."“Makes a great gift.“My acne cleared up.”“My skin has never looked better.”“It freshens the room.”“After gardening…so cool. I keep mine in the fridge!”"I spray mine on my deodorant stone instead of water!"“I’ll take four please.” We whisk the blend by hand, line up the bottles like proud soldiers,carefully pour, and diligently ID each…
