Eyes (7)

Eagle Vision According to tradition Chinese health theory, the “Liver” opens into the eyes and controls vision. The Chinese version of the Liver is a complex organ system. Its functions include not only those of the liver as we know it physiologically in the West, but also includes a number of other organic structures and functions that might seem unrelated at first glance, but are in fact closely related functionally – such as the control of the peripheral nervous system and, in particular,our vision. The eyes are a part of the peripheral nervous system, and are therefore controlled by the Liver. Both visual acuity and the condition of the eyes itself are under the influence of the Liver. The Liver “prefers to remain cool.” Yin tonifying herbs provide the natural coolness that supports healthy eye tissue and functioning.  Goji, Chrysanthemum, Dendrobium, Peony and Cassia tora nurture Liver Yin.  Goji berry is famed for its benefit to the eyes as well as to the system as a whole. Goji is a Liver and blood tonic. Goji berries contain carotenoids that promote vitamin A production and provide important eye nutrients, including zeathanthin, a carotenoid that protects the health of the retina, the pigment that coats the retina (the back wall of the eye). An herb that is highly reputed for its benefits to the eyes is the small Oriental Chrysanthemum Flower. This flower is used in Chinese herbalism to directly and quickly benefit the eyes and vision by clearing obstructions and allowing energy to flow freely through the eyes. It is a cooling herb which clears heat away from the eyes. This herb can help relieve temporary mild eye strain, eye redness and eye congestion due to fatigue and temporary dryness resulting from environmental conditions. Anger and toxic substances will cause the eyes to become red, as will a lack of sleep. If your eyes are chronically fatigued, red or congested, or become so due to a condition such as hay fever, see a physician as this may indicate a serious condition. Cornus is another tonic fruit that has powerful effects on the “Kidneys” and “Liver.” It is traditionally believed to be a valuable eye tonic. Astragalus and Dioscorea supplement Qi and strengthen the body. Vitex rotundifolia supports clear vision. Ligusticumstimulates the smooth flow of Qi and blood. Tribulus tonifies the Kidney and Liver. Cassia tora cools the eyes. Tonic herbs are not to be used for the purposes of curing, preventing or treating any disease of the eyes (for that, you should consult a physician before using any herbs or supplements). This formula is used to promote the proper energy balance in the eyes so that the eyes remain healthy. As a Yin tonic, it also promotes healthy fluid balance of the eyes. Again, if you are experiencing significant eye inflammation or what appears to be an eye infection or any other disease of the eye, you should consult a physician.*   Traditional Function: Tonifies Liver, nourishes blood and benefits the eyes and vision*   Concentration: 7:1   Specifications: 100 Capsules 500 mg each   Ingredients Goji berry, Dendrobium stem, Senna obtusifolia seed, Chrysanthemum flower, Astragalus seed, Ligusticum chuanxiong rhizome, Tribulus seed, Chinese Yam rhizome, Cornus officinalis fruit, Vitex rotundifolia fruit, Chinese White Peony root.   Other Ingredients: Vegetarian capsules**, rice powder.     Usage: Take 3 capsules, 2 times per day or as directed by a healthcare professional.   Remember Ron Teeguarden’s “First Rule of Tonic Herbalism,” summed up in a single word – Compliance.

Lovely fresh, 'green' and delicately sweet scent. It freshens, cools, rejuvenates and firms the skin. Perfect for dull, damp, polluted or warm environments ... it will instantly take you to the green freshness and cooling breeze of the forest ...at least that's how it feels to me :-) It feels so soothing and calming on the eye, brow and temple area. If you're a type that gets easily overheated, agited or angry - or if you easily get headaches, you might wanna try the Open Sky Eye Serum for a treat. Bright, alert eyes - Refreshing, enlightening, firming I do believe this has helped lighten up the former dark circles under my eyes, and helped with the puffiness - my eye area just overall looks better! It's just one of those things that happens gradually, and then suddenly you notice the new beauty progress that catches your eye in the mirror :) I love putting this all over my face, not just the eye area. It is very firming, and clear, and I have gotten compliments on how good my skin looks with this on. Very clarifying, and I love how refreshing this feels because of the mint in conjunction with all the other wonderful ingredients. When I want to feel expansive, enlightened, and aware, I put this on. Indeed, during application, it is best not to put it too close to the eye line, otherwise the eyes can start watering. However, sometimes I actually enjoy the bit of tearing up this provides, because it 'washes' my eyes into a brighter green colour - like aromatherapy for the eyes! Still, just putting it along the eye socket bone is nice enough :) Eye area looks great with this on - so bright and alert. A little definitely goes a long way, half a drop then spreading it onto eye areas fulfills its use perfectly. Massaging it between the brows and onto forehead temple also feels exceptionally relaxing. Nadine is such an awesome creator. Looking and feeling truly beautiful. Thank you Lovely...but am I using it wrong? I received my order yesterday and am in love with the true fragrance. The oil feels good and I can already see some improvement in my dark circles and puffiness. It does burn the eyes a bit. Will I adjust? [Libations comment: use this lovely serum around the eyes, but not on eyes or eyelids; it is potent and a little goes a long way] hollowness under the eyes I'm writing to thank you, Nadine, for yet another incredibly effective product -- Open Sky Eye Serum. I had contacted you personally about the hollows or sagginess I was noticing under my eyes and you suggested this product to me. It works! The skin under my eyes has most definitely pulled up or grown collegen or somehow regenerated because I no longer have the sagging definition that I had before using the product. I would tell anyone who is aging and losing some of the fullness underneath their eyes to try this serum. I've been using it for probably two months and the results are noticeable and incredible. Natural plant essences rock!! Thanks Nadine. P.S. I'm surprised no one else has reviewed this product. People try this, you'll be happy you did. so many uses in one bottle this is an amazing product. it really heals skin around the eyes. I love it. I use it everyday and the smell is divine. I even mix it with best skin ever and a wonderful overall moisturizer. thank you next day eyes oh dear. i used this one the day of my sister's wedding. the night before was late and rowdy and i woke up with puffy eyes. within 10 minutes of using open eye, the skin around my eyes was not puffy anymore. the pictures looked amazing. it is my secret weapon after a long late night! thank you, thank you, thank you. smells great love this product. so natural, so fresh, so gentle. i use it everyday. helps after a day of computer work hi there, i wanted to write a review of this product. thank you so much. i work in a dark office, under florescent lights and by a computer all day long, every day. At the end of the day, my eyes feel strained and bloodshot. I come home and use open eye sky serum and my eyes feel the relief they crave all day. Thanks a lot. My Eyes Look Amazing! I am currently wearing the Open Sky eye Serum, my eyes have been puffy and dry lately, they look and feel amazing! (I just got it in the post this morning) I've never been a fan or addicted to beauty products such as Lancome, Clinique, etc...but this is it. I've found my product. How can anyone feel guilty about putting 100% natural products on their body? I feel like you create magic! WOW * WoW * wow! I wanted to write to let you know that I ordered your "Open Sky Eye Serum" with my last order & all I can think of to say is that it is AMAZING! I actually intended to place my 'regular' order for dewdab & hand cream - but the Open Sky Eye Serum seemed to be 'calling' to me...so I 'splurged' & included a bottle of it in my order... I've been using it for about 1 week & WOW * WoW * wow! I LOVE it, I just use a drop or two to gently massage around my eyes-both in the morning & at night...strangely I find it both 'awakens' me in the morning & 'calms' or soothes me at night - perhaps that has to do with its effects on the pineal gland(?) Whatever the reason - I will not be without this amazing serum again! Thank you+*+*+*+ for the gifts you share with the world ~ Becky

Vamp the volume of your lashes and dramatize your eyes with our juicy, jet-black maven mascara. Many consider mascara a must-have, and we re-imagined this synthetic cosmetic with our compelling cosmoetic: a creation from the cosmos. Created with nature’s numinous nourishment, Raven Maven Mascara is long lash haven, formulated with pure ebonizing earth-pigments, length-perfecting peptides, eye-enhancing Frankincense, and natural volume-boosting waxes mixed with resins and opulent oils for sheen and conditioning that keep lashes glistening.This onyx paste comes glass tube encased with a svelte silicone wand that sculpts and evenly spreads to thread each lash as it builds up to long-lasting, lash-fluttering lengths.DetailsWe’re waxing poetic about what makes this maven mascara magnetic. The heart and soul of creating a lash-loving classic, besides pitch perfect charcoal, is how it hugs the lashes. Here the wax is key so that the mascara sets and is smudge free. To create this, wondrous waxes were mixed, melted, poured, and adored to find the golden ratio that would provide a silky sheath around each lash that seamlessly stays from dusk to dawn. In formulating, we found that by combining the varying melting points of a talented trio of waxes we could achieve a holy trinity of iconic lash effects: a lengthening effect with the high melting point of Carnauba’s hard wax, the more malleable medium melting point of Beeswax that creates a curling-lift effect, and the low melting point of Bayberry Fruit’s creamy, thicker textured wax for natural volume. To this trilogy, Cacao butter adds conditioning and cancels clumping. Frankincense and coniferous resins keep lashes glistening, and a cache of Kaolin clay keeps it thick. Plus, a measure of peptides further nurture future lash longevity — all fused in the obsidian hues of iron oxides to create this Renegade Beauty cosmoetic classic.Typically, modern mascaras use coal tar for color, film-forming polymers and shellac derived from the bleached exudate of the lac insect for texture and set, plastic and nylon to make a lengthening gel, parabens as preservatives, and ammonium methacrylate, polyvinylpyrrolidone, and polyethylene derived from petroleum for stability and emulsion, Yet, when the cosmos provides such exquisite and effective elements to lengthen, strengthen, and darken our lashes, it is amazing that petroleum products and plastics are used instead.Directions: Apply with sweeping strokes to the eyelashes. Focus on one lash-line at a time. Repeat, slowly sweeping brush through the lashes from root to tip before it sets. One dip can be layered multiple times onto lashes before it sets to build depth and density. The back of the top lashes can be coated too. It will wash away with water, yet a little oil will make the cleanup quicker and conditions lashes further. Use our Goodnight Oil, Seabuckthorn Best Skin Ever Cleansing Balm, Chocolate Mocha Lip Balm (yes!), or your fave Best Skin Ever on a damp cotton pad, and whisk it away.Tip: Avoid pumping the wand and keep the lid on tight to keep air out and moisture in.INGREDIENTS: Water/Aqua/Eau, Iron Oxides (CI 77499), Beeswax, Stearic Acid, *Copernicia cerifera (Carnauba) Wax, Arginine, Pullulan, Propanediol, Methyl Hydrogenated Rosinate, Glyceryl Stearate, Pisum sativum (Pea) Peptide, Pentylene Glycol, Kaolin, Caprylyl Glycol, 1,2-Hexanediol, Xanthum Gum, *Theobroma cacao (Cocoa) Seed Butter, Myrica cerifera (Bayberry) Fruit Wax, Boswellia carterii (Frankincense) Extract, Sodium Phytate, Glycerin, Leuconostoc/Radish Root Ferment Filtrate, *Rosmarinus officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Extract, Tropolone, Eucalyptol, Beta-Caryophyllene, Limonene, Linalool, Camphor, Carvone, Alpha-Pinene, Beta-Pinene. *Certified Organic.We wanted to formulate the cleanest mascara possible that is ophthalmologist approved, safe for contact lens wearers, and safe for sensitive eyes. After much research and experimentation, it was established that these two green beauty approved, eye-safe, and earth-safe synthetics (1,2-Hexanediol and Tropolone) make a clean and safe mascara worth wearing. Here’s why: the mascara wand is brushed through non-sterile eye lashes and then put back into the container over and over again, which creates a unique microbial challenge and very real safety concerns that must have absolute answers. And using a fresh wand for every application would waste so much mascara that it isn't a viable solution.These two extraordinarily effective ingredients are imperfect in that they are synthetic, yet they are heavily tested and established as harmless. Also, both Tropolone and 1,2-Hexanediol meet the clean beauty standards for the Environmental Working Group as well as the higher green beauty standards of the Detox Market and Credo Beauty. Ophthalmologist Approved Safe for Contact Lenses Safe for Sensitive Eyes Long Lasting Volumizing + Lengthening 10ml Ingredients Water Filtered, deionized water is the non-allergenic fluid foundation that keeps all of the ingredients properly swished and swirled together. Iron Oxide Black This naturally occurring mineral provides the non-irritating, perfectly-pitched, pure pigment to our mascara for the most naturally tinted lashes. Typically, carbon black is used to pigment cosmetics, and it is produced in the combustion of carbon products like tar. It is reportedly linked to incidence of organ and endocrine disruption. Beeswax This wonderful wax is such a special gift from the hives of healthy bees, giving vital viscosity to our lusciously thick mascara, so it coats, lifts, and protects lashes. Beeswax replaces paraffin, polyethylene, vegan soy wax, or a synthetic wax. Carnauba Wax (Copernicia cerifera) This breezy Brazilian palm tree lends its leaf wax to our formula for lavish lash-lengthening body with a nice, soft gloss. It also adds emollience for smooth, moisturized eye lashes. Carnauba wax replaces polymers, paraffin, polyethylene, and synthetic waxes. Bayberry Fruit Wax (Myrica cerifera) This silky wax is water extracted from organically grown berries of the Southern Bayberry Myrtle. It contributes to the creamy, rich texture of the mascara and gives the lashes a lustrous coat of a porous, protective plant layer. Film-forming polymers, such as acrylates copolymer, ammonium methacrylate, polyvinylpyrrolidone, and polyethylene, derived from petroleum, are commonly used in lieu of Bayberry Fruit Wax. Methyl Hydrogenated Rosinate Conifer sap resin is steam purified and combined with hydrogen to create a shelf-stable liquid that helps the mascara stay coated on your lashes while adding a dash of gloss. Polyvinylpyrrolidone is typically used in this role as a fixative in mascara. It is a synthetic ingredient derived from petroleum. Frankincense Resin (Boswellia carterii) Inspired by Frankincense used as the ingredient of an early cosmetic — ancient Egyptian Kohl — this fragrant and flawless extract furnishes soothing, smoothing properties to our formula. This radiant resin is key to our formula’s tenacity and texture. In synthetic mascaras one will often find shellac on the ingredient list instead. Shellac is made from the exudate of the lac insect. The exudate is then bleached or decolorized to make it cosmetic grade. Stearic Acid This magnificent multi-tasker is a natural, plant-based long chain fatty acid that stabilizes the solution and makes the mascara silky smooth. Triethanolamine (TEA) is frequently used in lieu of stearic acid, for the long chain fatty acid. It is created in a reaction of ammonia with ethylene oxide from the petroleum industry. Propanediol Plant-derived propanediol is a trusty texturizer and non-irritating fluid that assists in keeping the ingredients wet and well blended. Typically, polyethylene glycol (PEG) is used in this role as a wetting agent, and it can trigger allergies and irritations. A vast number of people (maybe as high as 72%), have developed anti-PEG antibodies that can cause hypersensitivity reactions when exposed. Glyceryl Stearate This plant-based emulsifier, conditioner, and body builder is created in a process super similar to DIY soap making. This process produces magnificent molecules that are both water and fat soluble, which helps to keep our mascara ingredients all mixed together. Triethanolamine plays a similar role here in replacing stearic acid, and is also frequently used in lieu of glyceryl stearate. Arginine A lash-care essential! Arginine is an essential amino acid for building keratin, a fibrous protein that structures and protects hair. It also moisturizes each lash to keep them long and strong. Pullulan (Aureobasidium pullulans) This mighty microorganism produces this edible cellulose that acts and feels similar to gelatin. Pullulan helps our mascara lavish each lash with a sheen that stays all day yet magically washes away with water. Typically, plastic or nylon reinforced cellulose are in mascara used to create the gel-like feel in mascara. Both plastic and nylon are made from petroleum. Pentylene Glycol This sustainably produced, plant derived organic alcohol works synergistically with organic Rosemary Leaf Extract to preserve and protect our mascara from mutant microbes. It is also a silky humectant that protects lashes from drying out. Pentylene glycol replaces polyethylene glycol (PEG), which functions in many types of mascara as a humectant and preservative. A vast number of people (maybe as high as 72%) have developed anti-PEG antibodies which can lead to hypersensitivity reactions when exposed. Kaolin Silica rich Kaolin clay is an ancient haircare preparation that imparts opulent density to our finished formula. Typically, polymer opacifiers are used instead to thicken and make the formula opaque. Synthetic polymers may be irritating and inflammatory. Caprylyl Glycol Soft, flexible lashes are less apt to break, and this moisture magnifier keeps your lashes lush and long. Caprylyl glycol is a non-irritating, non-drying alcohol derived from the caprylic fatty acid found in coconut oil. Xanthum Gum Widely used in the organic food industry and a pantry staple for gluten free baking, this gel is a natural exudate of Xanthomonas campestris. It is an excellent thickener! We used Xantham Gum instead of hydroxyethylcellulose, which is a synthetic polymer that is made using 1,4 dioxane, a substance that can contribute to some cancers. Cacao Butter (Theobroma cacao) Expeller-pressed from raw cacao beans, velvety cacao butter delivers antioxidants and conditioning to keep lashes nourished from follicle to tip. Sorbitan sesquioleate is commonly used in mascara for added moisture, and it is increasingly considered an irritant. Sodium Phytate This simple salt of phytic acid derived from plant tissues acts as an all-natural super stabilizer for our ebonizing pigments so that our mascara looks and feels the same, day after day. Sodium phytate replaces sodium EDTA to manage the minerals in the mascara. Sodium EDTA may cause redness and rashes to those with sensitive eyes and skin. Glycerin Lash-plumping and moisture-maintaining Glycerin acts as a water-binding humectant in our formula. This pure, non-GMO glycerin is made from palm oil extracted from Elaeis guineensis trees grown sustainably and ethically harvested in the tropics. Glycerin is best avoided for skin care as it can lead in the long term to water loss and imbalanced skin cells, yet a bit of Glycerin when combined with other moisturizers and humectants is benign in mascara. Glycerin is safe for eye lashes because hair is made of non-living cells. Pea Peptides (Pisum Sativum) This pea peptide is a plant protein multi-tasker concentrated in lysine. It hydrates, strengthens, and fortifies lusher lash density overtime. The texture of the peptide also pumps up voluminous volume for thick, long lashes. Our peptide is lavishly laced with radish root filtrate that has been fermented with Leuconostoc, the same lactic acid bacteria that is used to make kimchi and sourdough bread. This pale-yellow liquid is a natural bacteria-balancer, and its moisturizing properties make it superbly smoothing and conditioning to the lashes and follicles. Rosemary Leaf Extract (Rosmarinus officinalis) This steadfast and super potent supercritical extract is a favorite of ours, acting as a replenishing tonic for lashes, roots, and follicles and keeps the mascara fragrant and fresh. Typically, butylparaben, ethylparaben, and propylparaben are used as preservatives, and they are known endocrine disruptors. Imidazolidinyl urea may also be found on mascara ingredient lists as an antimicrobial, and it is a formaldehyde releaser. 1,2-Hexanediol Though synthetic, it has been heavily tested to be harmless, 1,2-Hexandediol only differs molecularly from Caprylyl Glycol in that it has six carbons in the carbon chain while Caprylyl Glycol has eight. 1,2-Hexandediol is both water and lipid loving, and thus it helps hold the ingredients together and disperse pigments more evenly. Tropolone This conditioning agent helps to keep our mascara flake-free, and acts as a clean beauty preservative. When combined with 1,2-Hexanediol and Caprylyl Glycol, Tropolone provides essential full-spectrum microbe-management to protect the mascara from contamination after every application. While this compound is synthesized, Tropolone is skin safe and also occurs in plants, especially in the Cypress and Lily families, and essential oils are good sources of Tropolone derivatives.

I LOVE it, I just use a drop or two to gently massage around my eyes-both in the morning & at night...strangely I find it both 'awakens' me in the morning & 'calms' or soothes me at night - perhaps that has to do with its effects on the pineal gland(?) Whatever the reason - I will not be without this amazing serum again! Thank you+*+*+*+ for the gifts you share with the world ~ Becky
