There are still too many orders coming in and some urgent requests. I do understand the anxiety to get solutions for our skin but hope you can understand if I can't send out on time to meet your last minute request. As a form of goodwill for all the last minute orders, as well as during the period when I am not in Singapore, I have sought assistance from my friend, Bryan of Omhealth. I am flying off very soon and Bryan will help me with all your orders of Sandalwood powder and Aloe Vera gel during my absence. Bryan is kind enough to extend his help to me, so I also want to make things easy for him. Please transfer your payment to his POSB savings account 033485310 first before you email your orders and payment details to his email address at orders@omhealth.com. I apologised for all the inconvenience and wish everyone a great weekend.

If you wish to place your order for Aloe Vera gel or Sandalwood powder, please email to me by 20 Sep 2011. All orders received before 20 Sep 2011 will have your ordered items reach you by 4th Oct 2011. All orders placed after 20 Sep 2011 can only be processed when I am back in November.

Remember to keep me updated with your payment details, which should include date of transfer, amount transferred, transaction reference number, payment for which items and lastly, payment via i-banking/ATM/funds transfer from another bank.

Mix with water to make it into body scrub.

Homemade Sandalwood facial clay mask:

Rinse with warm water, using fingertips to gently loosen the mask. Do not scrub skin while removing - especially if you have acne - as it will aggravate troubled spots.
Once the mask is removed, splash face with cold water to tighten pores. Your skin will be left feeling soft, smooth and refreshed

My aloe vera gel are rather popular for treating rashes and eczema. However, I hope you can take note that everybody's skin condition differ. You should seek advice from a professional skin doctor if your condition is serious. Otherwise, you can start off slow by applying some on a small area and see how it goes. Individuals who have eczema should avoid prolonged exposure to hot water, which can make eczema worse.

Aloe vera works to clear eczema in a few different ways. Aloe vera moisturizes, which helps keep dry skin hydrated. Eczema is often exacerbated by dry skin, so anything that adds moisture will help to alleviate the redness and dry patches characteristic of eczema. Aloe vera encourages healthy skin growth, and it also acts as a protective barrier.

Aloe vera gel can also soothe skin burned or over-exposed to the sun. When applied onto the skin, it cools the burn while it provides deep moisturizing to the damaged skin. It has shown great healing qualities to skin that's inflamed due to allergies, rashes, eczema, minor cuts, scraps and even insect stings.

Aloe vera is a plant that has wonderful healing and softening properties.

Top selling item - Sandalwood powder

2009-02-15T15:28:00.003+08:00

Sandalwood mask powder is one of the most hot selling products at Kimsherbshop. Use your creativity to explore different ways to use sandalwood powder. Here are some DIY methods to try out.

1) Papaya and Sandalwood powder facial mask

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon of freshly mashed papaya
1 tablespoon of Sandalwood powder

Applications:
Mix mashed papaya with sandalwood powder until they blend well into a paste.
Apply the paste onto your face and neck.
Leave it on for 20 minutes.
Rinse it off with water.

Benefits:

The medicinal properties of sandalwood when combined with the good exfoliating properties of papaya produces a glowing and healthy skin. Papaya will help to remove dead skin cells, keeping your skin cleanse, soft and moisturised. The antioxidants in papaya control premature ageing of the skin, and thereby imparting a youthful look. On the other hand, Sandalwood is a cooling and soothing agent for the skin. It is suitable for all skin types. It also helps to fight against common skin problems such as rashes, inflammation, acne, dryness, dehydration and chapped skin.

(Please take note: Do not use this DIY recipe if you are allergic to any of the ingredients)

2) Turmeric powder and Sandalwood powder facial mask (Pimple treatments)

Ingredients:

1 teaspoon of Turmeric powder
1 teaspoon of Sandalwood powder

Applications:

Add a teaspoon of water to both powders to form a paste. Blend well and apply to your pimples before bed. A therapist recommended me to use Lavendula Vera flora water for a better and faster result.

3) Sandalwood mask using Lavendula Vera flora water

Ingredients:

1-2 teaspoons of Sandalwood powder
Lavendula Vera flora water

Applications:

Mix well to form a smooth paste. Apply onto face for about 20 minutes. This method can also be used for treatment of pimples on the chest or back.

Effects of Sandalwood in aromas or incense

Sandalwood is popularly known for its calming, cooling effect for both body and mind. The scent of Sandalwood essential oil or Sandalwood incense clarifies the mind and helps to awaken intelligence, and is often used as an aid for meditation. It calms the mind, soothes stress and nervous tension, and uplifts the mood. It is said to enliven courage, purpose, strength and happiness.

How to burn Sandalwood powder:

Shape the powder slightly to form a cone shape on a porcelain saucer or any incense bowl. Use a long lighter for easy light up especially if your container is deep. Otherwise, you can use any normal lighters or matchsticks. I will prefer to use a covered incense bowl because I will keep some of the sandalwood powder ash for the next burning. I find that having the ash as a base is easier to keep the powder burning.

Hi. I am Kim. Thank you for taking time to visit my blog. Besides being a supplier to therapists, I also have some regular individuals getting raw matarials from me. Although I have been dealing with natural raw materials for many years, this is my first time to do up a blog. I like to DIY things but I am not good at IT things at all. Doing a simple blog like this, takes me ages to figure it out and complete it! Well, not exactly complete I guess....but this is one of my greatest satisfaction in 2008! As you can see, this blog is still very new and raw. I will try to feed in my information on my list of products as soon as I can. Thank you for all your emails.

I have created a new email address to avoid confusion. Do take note of my new email address kimsherbshop@gmail.com. The old email address will be replaced by kimsherbshop@gmail.com . Thank you.
