Tomorrow, Adam drives off to Atlanta, GA. From Saturday until Wednesday, he'll be working at a Hyatt Regency hotel, setting up and running computers for a meeting featuring the Department Of Education and the Early Head Start Program. He's done the exact same thing in DC, at the Washington Hilton; the Department Of Education has a lot of meetings especially about Early Head Start.

On Saturday, I will be meeting with Linda Stein, creator and owner of Zosimos Botanicals Natural Skin Care. She's the very sweet lady who makes the most awesome skin cream, the Anti-Element Emollient -- which, at my personal request, now has tamanu and helichrysum oils. *does happy dance*
Over the course of our email exchange last month about the tamanu and helichrysum, Linda asked if I wanted to be a sort of independant contractor, and work with her extremely part time when the need arises, on weekends, in exchange for free products and knowledge of skin care and ingredients. I would not be paid, however, which is fine by me. I just want the experience; and free stuff is always good.
Saturday will be our first meeting, so we can figure out how it will happen. She's willing to pick me up from my house and bring me home, too. I would help her out at local trade shows, and come to her home to help out with making products and other projects. She may not always need my help, but it's nice to know that help will be there if she does need it. I'll be happy to do it.

(Oh, and Linda just told me that the most recent issue of the magazine Woman's World has a 20% off coupon code for Zosimos Botanicals products, on page 25)

So. I am completely in love with the new formulation of the Anti-Element Emollient. With the addition of tamanu and helichrysum that I asked for, plus a few other ingredients, the cream (I should say balm or butter) is softer and easier to work with. I can smell the nutty butter pecan scent of the tamanu mixed with the crisp sharp honey tea scent of helichrysum, complementing the sweet smooth orange berry scent of the sea buckthorn (ah, my trifecta). My hands haven't cracked once, or shown a single eczema flare, since I started slathering the stuff on them. My face, too, has completely cleared up. No more blemishes. I technically don't even need makeup at this point, but when I do wear foundation my skin looks flawless, and the Emollient makes a great base for makeup too. It's just a fantastic all-around skin balm.

Hi, I've been reading your journal for awhile now with a lot of interest in the skincare posts. Would you say this emollient is good for very sensitive skin? I must admit that I'm a bit frightened by the looooong ingredient list, but it sounds amazing.

Oh, and I hope you don't mind if I add you. :)

Yes, it is good for sensitive skin. My skin is sensitive and dry, and I have not had any problems.

I don't mind at all that you added me. I'm glad you like my journal. Where'd you find me? :)

I believe it was through the naturalskin community, which I don't belong to but browse it from time to time.

Thanks for the speedy reply! I'm going to give it a try.

Let me know how you like it. Linda seems to have gotten several customers already from my LJ. :)
