Pangea Organics Canadian Pine with White Sage Shower Gel Recommended by Whom You Know- A Great Way To Perk Up Your Manhattan Winter

PRODUCT INFORMATION:

mind: grounding / body: purifying

PINE WHITE SAGE

purifying antioxidant

elevating calming

cleansing soothing

Formulated with a base of organic extra virgin olive, hempseed, coconut and jojoba oils, these shower gels lather due to their rich, saponified organic oils rather than chemical detergents, making them excellent skin conditioners. They can also be used as a luxurious shaving product for both men and women. Each unique essential oil blend offers an exotic experience from uplifting to relaxing.

KEY INGREDIENTS:

Organic Pine (or Fir Needle) Essential Oil - Pine’s purifying properties make it an amazing natural deodorant. Reminiscent of a brisk hike through mountain terrain, Pine’s aroma is green and crisp for the nose, elevating and opening for the mind.

Organic Sage Essential Oil - White sage is also known as sacred sage due to its history of use for spiritual ceremony by Native Americans. The leaves and flowers of Sage offer skin purifying attributes. Sage is extremely restorative to abrasions and irritation, while its antioxidant properties support optimal cellular vitality. Properties for the mind include: grounding and uplifting to alleviate mental strain and fatigue.

Organic Coconut Oil - Pacific Islanders call the coconut palm the “Tree of Life”, as it is used to treat so many disorders in their culture. Coconut oil is most often applied topically to restore skin and improve hydration, as its high content of saturated fatty acids (92%) supports the skin with retaining more intrinsic moisture. Coconut oil works as a skin protectant by creating a barrier on the skin that provides protection from the elements. For sensitive skin, coconut oil possesses anti-irritant benefits that soothe and reduce redness. When saponified (in liquid cleansing products) coconut oil is a gentle yet effective natural surfactant that cleanses dirt and oil while softening and soothing skin.

The panelists put this to the test, and they say:

One whiff of Pangea Organic's Canadian Pine With White Sage shower gel and I was instantly transported to a rustic cabin in Maine. No more city chaos, cramped living space, or subway stress. The scent is heavenly, and although it's a very strong pine scent, it's more of a woodsy, outdoorsy smell than, say, a Christmas smell. It instantly lifted my spirits and made me forget for a few minutes that I was already running late and about to cram myself onto an overstuffed subway car during the morning rush hour. And the lather is superb! Rich and luxurious, with plenty of bubbles - I felt as if I was at some decadent spa instead of my small NYC apartment! And it turns out that, not only does the shower gel smell great and feel great, but it also has other benefits (besides the basic perk of getting you clean)! The pine has antiseptic properties, and the white sage has antioxidant, calming, and healing properties. Also, thanks to that rich lather, it can also be used as a shaving product for man and women. Does it get any better than this? I can't wait to use it again tomorrow!

Pangea Canadian Pine shower gel is all natural and brings me back to life. This is an amazing organic product. There are no nasty chemicals - WOOHOO! It has an amazing sent that wakes you up in the mornings. The lather it creates is perfect and covers my body in minutes. I really love the outdoorsy sent. It brings me back to nature. I also love that this product isn't tested on animals. I highly recommend Pangea Organics body wash. Run out there and get yourself clean head to toe!

One of my favorite things is a hot shower and some nice shower gel. The Canadian Pine shower gel was the perfect fit for me. It had a nice scent that lasted for hours after I got out of the shower. I liked it because it seemed like a nice winter scent. I had many people stop me and ask what perfume I was wearing. It also left my skin feeling soft and moisturized. For me, that's hard to find a shower gel that can do that in the winter because I have hard water. This is a product I will continue to keep in my linen closet. I even plan on purchasing extra to give as gifts. This has to be my new favorite shower gel!

When I read Canadian pine, the first thing that popped into my head was a pine scented tree that my uncle Larry would place on the rear-view mirror of his beloved '57 Chevy. Alas, I don't have an uncle named Larry, but I loved the pine scent of this shower gel. Almost reminded me of an invigorating eucalyptus scent. The consistency reminded me of Dr. Bronner's Magic Soap. Not at all what I was expecting. The packaging claims that "just a dab'll do ya", but I found myself adding more than just a dab to create that foaming lather that I love so much. It also left my skin a bit dry. Overall, I could deal with the fact that it's a bit on the liquidy side, as long as they add a moisturizing element to the shower gel.

Canadian Pine with White Sage. Doesn't just the sound of that make you feel good? This shower gel is simply put, awesome. It is thick (so a dab or so will do ya), lathers quickly and easily and smells divine! After a long day of chasing after my three year old, it felt like an escape to use this gel in the shower. It states on the label- mind: grounding / body: purifying. This shower gel lives up to those statements and then some! There are so many reasons to love this product, but I think what I love the most is that it is organic, there are no synthetic preservatives, sulfates or detergents, it is hand blended and a portion of the proceeds are helping to build the Pangea Institute (a non-profit organization researching and teaching about sustainable living)! I like that the product package provides the buyer with lots of information, but in a user friendly way. Time to go now, my shower is calling me!

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
