"Frog skin adds to growing list of animal-based anti-aging solutions"
"First snail slime, then snake venom, now it is frog skin. Scientists in South Korea are claiming that a new study has shown the skin of bullfrogs produces antioxidants that can help fight human skin aging..." You can read the rest of the article at the link below:

To which I can only say "YUCK!" Thank goodness for things like Seabuckthornberry and Pomengranate and Argan oil and all the other rich, natural wonderful anti- oxidants that we have access to.
Snail slime, snake venom and frog skin...sounds like something from MacBeth's three witches.

Dry skin body oil
Karie Kinney emailed this last evening - it sounds so yummy I had to share it!
"I just wanted you to know I recently ordered Sea Buckthorn Berry CO2 Extract; Pomegranate Seed Oil; White Camellia Oil; Argan Oil; Jojoba Oil. I'm using them combined on my whole body - from head to toe! My skin has never looked better! I have combination skin and tend to break-out with blemishes frequently. I have not had one blemish since I started using these products! It's pretty amazing! My skin looks younger and more vibrant. My pores seem smaller too! My skin feels so silky soft it's incredible!"
That sounds like a wonderful blend, Karie. I use the Pomengranate and Argan on my face daily...more than daily. Hadn't thought of using it as a full body oil. But my friend Jean Flinchum raved about the effect of the pomengranate CO2 (straight up, no other oils) on really badly sundamaged arms. She mentioned "chicken skin"...well Jean, because I'm a lot older than you MY chicken skin is scalier than your chicken skin! Another use for Pomegranate.
All of the carrier oils and the Pomegranate CO2 are available onour carrier oils page. The Seabuckthorn Berry CO2 is available with our essential oils.
I'm thinking I might add just a tad of Rose Hip oil to the above combination. It is, after all, said to be one of the best oils for aging skin...and I think I've rather blown my cover here.
A nice after shower oil maybe?
