But then try to find it Argan oil should NOT be considered just another oil flooding the market. But it is. There are creams, lotions, hair treatments, shampoos, and soaps proudly advertising ‘with argan oil’.  It happens…something really good comes along and the market jumps on the bandwagon. Something too good to be true is an invitation to all.  We have a history with the pure, the real, argan oil Back in 2005, when our daughter was manning our Earth to Body booth at the Cavendish mall, we fortunately encountered our indispensable ‘Moroccan connection’, who fell in love with us, our…

A southern duo. Sheamu and you. To travel south without your sheamu is like venturing into an arctic storm without a hooded parka. Not a wise decision. The hot can often be as equally challenging as the cold. Snowbirds know to go prepared. The sun takes its toll. Protection is key. Individually, the Shea, native African and the unrefined Emu, native Australian, are both unchallenged. Centuries old and centuries worshipped. We introduced them to each other and christened the blend,  ‘Sheamu Butter’. I am not a snowbird (yet), but I was fortunate enough to have a holiday in Cuba. While my…

I was shocked, well, not really, when the trouncing of coconut oil hit last week on Marketplace. It was bound to happen. Any billion-dollar industry such as coconut would increase the competitors' angst and ire.   I wish I could have been a fly on the wall when Marketplace did the final editing. Even knowing how incredible coconut is, I was fascinated at how easily one might be swayed by the brilliance of an editor’s skill. The coconut lovers who ‘made the cut’ appeared shocked by the evidence against coconut. The editing was cleverly done.  I wonder how many who truly know the value of this…

(Jasper, age 14, is one of the youngest members of the Earth to Body family.  He is an avid reader and writer and has a particular fondness for plants, animals and team sports.  We asked Jasper to share with you, once again, a favourite Earth to Body product.) First, let me note that the All Purpose Sanitizer is one of my favourite products to date and I use it frequently. The main bunch of ingredients in this product form the powerful and legendary Thieves oil* blend of Clove, Lemon, Cinnamon, Eucalyptus, and Rosemary. This concoction has been used for over six hundred years, arising during…

A vegan alternative to our beloved Emu Oil for burns, Aloe Vera has been around our homes for as long as we can remember. This plant contains a soothing gel hidden within its thick green spiky leaves. For any type of burn, we run to the plant and break off a leaf, extracting the cool, soothing goodness. We believe every household should have an aloe plant! Recently, we are noticing quite the explosion of aloe products out there. Gels, juices, supplements, oils, powders for health and digestion. Creams, lotions, masks, hair products... the cosmetic industry is having a field day with this one…
