Hawaii's Lotions & Potions - HereOnThePrimalEdge - 12-13-2020
The NY Times has a feature article today about high end Hawaiian skin care products. $50 a bottle for anything is not my thing, but I thought budding agriculturalists in Puna might find the plants, their extracts, and subsequent products of interest. And maybe somebody else reading this does pay $50 a bottle for stuff.
It is not altogether surprising that Hawaii is at the forefront of our current golden age of natural skin care, in which botanical face oils and mushroom-infused elixirs abound. Few places on Earth contain such a diversity of plant species, and Hawaiians have been using this bounty — including nutrient-rich varieties such as hibiscus, coconut, ferns and kukui nuts — as a source of nourishment and healing for generations.

If you can't read the Times, here are links for two of the Big Island farms and/or companies that the article mentions:

Hot lava skin debridement cream for that “youthful” appearance.
Sounds great!
