About this Product
(0.8 oz)Enjoy a hydrating, skin-improving herbal facial steam. Herbal steaming can help soften dead skin cells, aid in the cleansing of deep-seated impurities and temporarily increases blood circulation.
Instructions: Add 2 TBS-1/4 cup, to 16 oz water. Let herbs sit in water for about 10 minutes to soften the roots. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat and simmer for about 10 more minutes. Move pot of herbs from the stove to your table, place a towel over your head and the pot, keeping your face over the steam, not allowing it to burn you. Breathe deeply and steam up to 10 minutes. Do this once a week. Be prepared for deep-seated impurities that may come to the surface after this treatment. Stop if irritation occurs.
ALL herbs are certified organic!

+++++ ALL NATURAL INGREDIENTS AND WHAT WE DON'T USE +++++
At Vital Roots, we believe that "all natural" means that every single, last ingredient is natural. Not that the main ingredient is natural and that's enough. Or even that almost all ingredients are natural, besides the fragrance oil and synthetic preservatives. At Vital Roots we use only natural ingredients and that includes our natural preservatives. We are....
*paraben-free *phthalate-free
* sulfate/sls-free *phenoxyethanol-free
* caprlyl glycol (Optiphen)-free * synthetic color-free
*corn, cottonseed, canola and soybean oil-free * petroleum-free
*Never any mineral oil, no solvent-extracted carrier oils, no Tetra-sodium EDTA, no polysorbate 20 or 80.
* And no fragrance oils. The term "fragrance" can have up to 4,000 separate chemicals, which the FDA does not require the manufacturer to list. Many of these chemicals are carcinogenic, toxic, or hormone disruptors.
~~~ What's left, you ask?~~~
Natural ingredients as close to what the earth gave us as we could get.
~~~ Try us, your skin will agree.~~~
+++++ ABOUT VITAL ROOTS +++++
At Vital Roots, I use natural ingredients, avoid synthetic, and prefer certified organic and ethically wildcrafted, I begin from scratch, making only small batches to assure freshness. Of course no animal was harmed to test my products.
From my ongoing education, I work very hard to learn about reputable suppliers, particularly ecologically aware and environmentally concious companies, to ensure an exceptional quality for all of my products.
What's the magic? I first start with all natural cold-pressed and organic or expeller-pressed oils, steering away from solvent-extracted oils. For example, my extra-virgin cold-pressed olive oil. I then add certified organic, certified by Oregon Tilth, ethically wildharvested herbs to the base of the olive oil. I infuse the oil with the herbs by allowing them to bask in the warm Colorado sun for at least 6 weeks. This lets the heat from the sun impart the wonderful medicinal and skin-mending qualities from the herbs righ into the base oil! This potent herbal healing oil is now ready to be applied directly to the skin. The remaining oil is used in other delightful creations such as the "Baby Bum and First Aid Salve" or the "Lavender and Virginia Cedarwood Foot Butter". Then sprinkle some drops of pure essential oils into the mix. Magical? Of course!
+++++ REDUCE, REUSE, AND RECYCLE +++++
