Mayans ancient herbal beauty

Mayan art and glyphs have revealed the importance of the idea of eternal life, and using herbs and oils to preserve their physical bodies from aging.The qualities of youth and beauty were regarded as a fitting gift for their gods. The secrets of beauty and the prevention of aging were jealously guarded by the royal family- but now, we KNOW!

Today, we know more about the chemical basis of herbs, and how they function. In our modern world, the aging process is accelerated by the effects of polluting chemicals in the air we breathe, the food we eat, and the water we drink, causing cellular breakdown and even cancer. It is believed that substances that contain antioxidants can halt this process.

This formula consists of simple, natural herbal and plant ingredients that you can put together yourself. If used on a regular basis for a two week trial period, you WILL notice a difference. Continue use, and over time you will notice an improvement in texture, softness, and the glow of youth.

HOW TO PREPARE THE FORMULA:

The cold infusion method is best for preparing herbs- it is most efficient, and since it requires no heat, is the least damaging to antioxidants and volatile oils. Suspend 1 Tablespoon of shredded Creosote Bush leaves and 1 Tablespoon shredded Sagebrush in cloth bag (or paper towel tied off with rubber band) in 1 cup clear water, and allow to sit overnight.

In the morning, squeeze out the excess liquid from the bag, and throw bag away. Add 1 tablespoon of sunflower oil, and put liquid into glass bottle with tight lid (mayonnaise or jam jar). Keep in the refrigerator, for the beneficial affects of the cold refreshing splash to your face!

Shake thoroughly each time used, to distribute the oils evenly, as no chemical emulsifier is used in this natural formula. Make up in small batches only, and start fresh each week- only clean, fresh substances should touch your face. Throw the leftovers on the petunias!

Variations ON THE FORMULA:

For Teenage Complexion or Acne: Omit oil altogether, and double amount of herbs used.

For Dry Skin: Double the amount of sunflower oil used.

HOW TO USE THE ANCIENT FORMULA:

Remember to always shake thoroughly before using. Apply to clean skin in the morning and at bedtime; allow to soak in for a minute, and pat dry. That's all, for a lifetime of beauty! This herbal formula depends upon regular, consistent use.
