Hygiene has taken on a whole new perspective since the Covid-19 pandemic began. Our cleaning and hygiene routines have been scrutinized and changed for the better considering the modern world that we live in.

The pandemic has enlightened us as to how far and how quickly bugs and viruses can spread if efforts are not made to contain them. And it is a sobering thought for something that is as simple as keeping clean. In fact, perhaps it is something that many of us took for granted before, maybe we didn’t always carry a hand sanitizer, but we do now. Maybe we didn’t always wash our hands for the recommended 20 seconds, but we do now. So, progress has been made through focused efforts, and this is a good thing!

Sensitive skin

The only downside is that all this cleaning, sanitizing, and cleansing of spaces can leave us prone to skin irritations, and excessive hygiene may be hard for those with sensitive skin. In this instance, natural remedies can really make the difference in looking after your skin, be it on your face, hands, or body.

Excessive cleansing strips your skin of its natural oils, when this happens, the skin begins to crack and break, it becomes red, sore or inflamed and it can be quite painful!

Through monitoring, reviewing, and upgrading your skincare routine you can begin to repair and heal damaged or sore skin. And natural ingredients offer the ancient know-how of Mother Nature for healing and repair.

Here are some great natural, cleansing remedies for your skin!

• Lavender. Lavender has a calming and soothing effect on the skin. Try adding a few drops of lavender essential oil to your bath or healing hand cream. Lavender is a gentle essential oil, and can be ideal for sensitive skin. Essential oils can be a great replacement for perfumes, however, not all essential oils are kind to sensitive skin so be careful!

• Coconut oil and Shea Butter are super moisturizers for your skin. For weary-looking hands that may appear dry, a daily gentle massage with these ingredients can help to soothe your skin and replenish lost moisture.

• Calendula. Calendula is extremely soothing for your skin. In fact, this ingredient is commonly used as a natural remedy for nappy rash and sores. It is anti-inflammatory and can help to combat inflamed skin.

There are numerous natural cleansing remedies that won’t harm your skin and can actually help to repair and protect your skin. Many natural herbs and oils are anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory and anti-viral; they are well worth further investigation if you are ready to upgrade your skincare!

Soaps, gels, and washes that are infused with nature are the way-to-go for happier, healthier skin!

Amish Farm Soap began creating healthy, healing soaps almost 18 years ago. The owner, George Jorgensen from South Eastern, South Dakota, wanted to create a soap that would be good for the skin, hair, and body. George sought out a local Amish family, well known for their natural and healing soaps. Amazingly, they gave him the rights to their soap recipe which had been handed down for generations!

“The company started in our kitchen. We all came together to try and replicate this recipe, eventually, we decided to add just a pinch of bentonite clay and that was the winner!” - Kelley, George’s daughter and president of Amish Farms Corp

The bentonite clay is sourced from a mine in their home state of South Dakota. Amish Farm Soap has taken a homemade, hand-cut, farmer’s market soap and made it available for everyone!

Customers in the southern states were the first to fall in love with this company. Their five-bar bag of (huge!) 5-ounce bars was sold by the pallet load to distributors throughout Mississippi, Alabama, and Georgia. The online reviews came flooding in, and now the award-winning soap has a 75% overall rating on Amazon. The soap can be found internationally in Asia, Europe, Central, and South America, and the Middle East as well.

“Our first trade show was this past month, and we took home the award for Best Product. This just goes to show how quickly people fall in love with the soap!”- Kelley, Amish Farm Soap

You can find Amish Farm Soap at their website or on Amazon! Here are a couple of testimonials!

“I bought this soap purposely to use on a vacation; I looked for a soap that would double as a shampoo and was pleasantly surprised! This soap leaves you feeling so nice, is soft to your skin, and lathers wonderfully for a shampoo. I liked it so much I had to share a bar with my daughter. The scent is not heavy, so if you have allergies, I don't think it would bother you”

“I really like this soap. The bars are very large and last a long time. When I try to buy more natural soaps, they usually disintegrate very quickly. Not this kind. Also, does not have a strong scent, which I prefer, I’ll purchase again!”
