Australian Organic Essential oils and plant extracts are inputs to a range of products including aromatherapy, food flavours, pharmaceutical goods and household goods. They include tea tree oils, citrus oils, spearmint, peppermint, lavender, chamomile, carrot seed, eucalyptus oil….. and many thousands more. Essential oils are exclusively made from botanical matter, so any synthetic fragrance oils derived from toxic coal and tar which are chemical recreations of scents are completely fake, and will never replace the therapeutic effects of the botanical derived essential oils.
Australia’s diverse climate and unique flora provide opportunities for new crop development and agricultural diversification. Increasing consumer interest, and a wide and growing range of applications in commercial industries has led to strong growth in world demand for these commodities. Essential oils have been extracted from over 3000 plants, of which 200 to 300 are commonly traded on world markets.

Chocolate Skin Care Mask - Deliciously Tempting
Tired of using the same old conventional skin care Mask? Not that there is anything wrong with these products. In fact most of these ingredients are highly effective in beautifying your skin. But if you are adventurous like me and want to dive into something out of the ordinary, then you really need put ‘chocolate’ on the top of your next grocery list and stick your hand into a mixing bowl and start getting dirty.Now, I’m not going to bore you with details of all the hyped up benefits of chocolate skin treatments - “cocoa in chocolate is anti-aging” - “chocolate will smooth your skin” - “chocolate skin care will make skin glow“……da…di…da.
If you are going to cover yourself in chocolate, then do it for the fun and pleasure of it. I for one experimented with a chocolate facial mask simply for the thrill of covering myself up in chocolate. Being able to spend intimate time with my good friend “Choco” as well as being able to lick him off whenever I want it, made it that much more attractive to try this out this new kid on the block. Whether it has any benefits at all to my skin is not important to me, but the results of a softer complexion after my chocolate facial mask has proven to be a great bonus.
