You don’t have to be a believer in the power of crystals in order to enjoy the new brand Crystal Hills Organics.
The B.C.-based brand creates body care products that are formulated with a unique ingredient: Crushed crystals.
Andrea Barone Sazwan, the founder of the line, talks crystals, creating healthy, healing body products and her favourite Crystal Hills product.
I launched Crystal Hills last June. I started my company as I really believe that what we apply on our body is just as important as the food we eat in restoring and maintaining the body’s harmony and vitality. With this in mind, I wanted to create holistic products that could offer specific benefits for the mind, body and spirit by synergistically blending exquisite flowers, beneficial herbs and high energy crystals.
Yes, there is, as whole or ground-up crystals are an ingredient in all of our bodycare products due to their good energy and unique properties. Crystal Hills is also located in the rolling hills of the beautiful Okanagan Valley.
At the present time, we offer crystalinfused body sera, bath salts and sugar scrubs, as well as crystal jewelry and crystal collections.
Synergistically blended relates to the interaction of two or more substances — ingredients — that produce a combined effect greater than the sum of their individual effects. For instance, the essential oil of lavender is known for having soothing properties as does camomile, violet leaf and even an amethyst crystal. However, when combined, the attributes of the botanicals, plus the energetic properties of the crystal, work together to offer an exceptional force to help promote calmness, inner peace and a relaxed state of mind.
We will soon be launching our crystalinfused massage oils and crystal-infused soaps that complement our existing line.
For me, it would be our Crystal Love Body Serum. It was a special creation that was formulated with the sole purpose of love in mind: Feeling love, finding love, elevating love and even seeing the love around us. This sensual scent was created with pure essential oils, that are conducive to romance, love and passion. The Crystal Love Body Serum unites organic rosehip oil, organic apricot oil and mallow extract to provide exceptional soothing and nourishing properties which makes the skin silky smooth.
