Trees in the
rainforest work like the lungs of the earth in reverse fashion from our
own breathing. Trees absorb carbon dioxide emissions in the atmosphere
and release clean oxygen. The rainforest is the SINGLE GREATEST SOURCE
of the air that we breathe, accounting for a full 20%.
Saving
the rainforest is critical to maintaining clean air and a healthy
environment. Save your rainforest one acre at a time and you absorb
nearly a half ton of carbon dioxide (CO2) – or one ton of CO2 for every
2.471 acres. Reducing CO2 emissions reduces the thinning of the ozone
layer. Tropical rainforests have the highest mean net primary
production of any terrestrial ecosystem, meaning an acre of rainforest
stores more carbon than an acre of any other vegetation type.

Save Your Skin™and Save Your Hair™ is the first in the United States to offer a complete line of all natural personal care products infused with the unique antioxidant rich Yerba Maté. Yerba Maté is an evergreen plant that grows in the shade of the rainforests in South America. This plant has been harvested and used for centuries in South America as a tea. This tea drink was referred to as the “Drink of the Gods” by the Guarani tribe in the forests of Paraguay. Yerba Maté has
been found to contain practically all the vitamins necessary to sustain
life. Rich in vitamins A, C, E, B1, B2, B complex, carotene,
riboflavin, pantothenic acid, biotin, and vitamin C complex, it also
contains 15 different amino acids, plus significant amounts of
magnesium, calcium, iron, sodium, potassium, manganese, silicon,
phosphates, zinc, niacin, sulfur and chlorophyll, choline, and
inositol. Yerba Maté in total contains 24 vitamins and minerals.
We use only the finest grade of organic Aloe grown in the Dominican Republic, harvested and cut by hand by one of the oldest growers and manufacturers of this plant in the industry. For centuries Aloe has been used to soothe, heal and rejuvenate the skin. Our Save Your Skin™and Save Your Hair™ products are full of this moisturizing ingredient.
We believe that the combination of these two natural organic ingredients - Yerba Maté and Aloe in our formulations, make the Save Your Skin™ and Save
Your Hair™ personal care product line one of the healthiest in the
organic industry. We invite you to try our products and let us know
what you think.
