You have to love a site named the Naked Scientists! I’m all over the web researching whatever pops into my head at any given time. Tea Tree Oil was on my mind today because I was thinking about our 3 Step Hair Complex in our Tea Tree Oil Shampoo and Tea Tree Oil Conditioner. Speaking of Tea Tree Oil, the price has jumped a full $10 per pound in a short year. I’m not sure if this applies to cheap Tea Tree Oil.

Anyway…the Naked Scientist had some interesting info on Tea Tree Oil in their article, “Does Tea Tree Oil Have Proven Anti-Bacteria Effects?”. (Dec, 2o01)

“Tea tree oil contains about 100 chemicals and of these 7 oils called terpenes are the commonest. If small amounts of these terpenes are added to cultures of bacteria, the numbers of bacteria fall by over 90%. It looks like the terpenes are punching holes in the bacteria, causing them to die.”

Good stuff. Good site.

Added page for private label packaging. Bottles up so far are:

• Oval: Classic medicinal look.
• Long-Shouldered Bullet: A slightly more elegant look for the bullet style.
• Airless Pump: For Creams and Serums

What makes a Moisture Shampoo and Moisture Conditioner? We’ve just uploaded a new page telling about our Moisture Complex. It’s a multi-ingredient synergy of ingredients that offer a balanced approach to hair moisturization.

Custom Scented 1 Gallon Moisture Shampoo and Conditioner extended through Monday, Jan 17.

Our Moisture Shampoo & Conditioner comes with an amazing combination of Lavender Essential Oil & Vanilla. But we are currently working on orders that have custom scents because clients want to have their own signature scent.

Our policy is a minimum of 5 gallons for custom orders. We are extending our weekend sale of 10% off Pure Wholesale products through Monday…AND…instead of the minimum 5 gallons, we are doing this for 1 gallon purchases. If you want your own scent, write us a note in the Special Comments section when you check out.

As skin care and hair care retailers, I’m sure some of you get asked questions about psoriasis. So I thought I would pass this on from WebMD about psoriasis. At the very least, it will give you something to pass on to those of your clients that need help.
