Yves Rocher Renew Commitment To Fair Trade With Exciting New Organic Product Range

London (PRWEB UK) 27 January 2012

Yves Rocher's new range, ?Expert Repair,? relies on a famous ingredient that is locally produced in Mali?shea butter. The French natural beauty products company has been working closely with Malian locals to develop an organic fair trade shea butter industry with sustainable production, which protects biodiversity and allows the local population to develop through guaranteed minimum wages and vocational training.

Shea butter is a luscious ivory-coloured extract that comes from the nut of the African shea tree and is frequently used as a moisturiser right around the world. Generations of Malian women have passed down their knowledge on how to extract the precious butter from the shea nut?a process more intricate and complicated than it sounds. First the nuts must be carefully sorted, then washed, sun dried, roasted, ground and finally cooked several times before the Malians can reap the benefits of their hard work?a butter with extraordinary reparative and nutritive properties.

The new Expert Repair line from Yves Rocher encompasses three different products containing shea butter?a balm, a lotion and a concentrate. The products are designed to soothe and repair very dry skin and offer immediate comfort and relief, with some of the isolated chemical constituents of shea butter also reportedly having anti-inflammatory properties.

The Expert Repair ?Repair Balm? is a rich, creamy balm formula for daily application all over the body. Designed to soothe as well as repair, Repair Balm is for very dry and damaged skin. The product retails at ?15.00 for a 150ml jar and can be bought from Yves Rocher?s UK Website.

For those who prefer a lotion, the Expert Repair ?Repair Lotion? is also for daily use and is ideal for women seeking softer, less irritated and more radiant skin. In a satisfaction survey, 100% of women reported softer skin after using the product for one month, a testament to its effectiveness. Retailing at ?9.50 for a 150ml tube, Repair Lotion also represents great value, especially considering the product is organic and fair trade.

For women requiring a more concentrated solution for isolated dryness-prone parts of the body, the Expert Repair ?Intense Repair Concentrate? is made from 100% shea butter with deep healing properties. The Intense Repair Concentrate is designed to be applied as often as needed to parts of the body that are prone to extreme dryness, such as the elbows, knees, hands and feet. In a satisfaction survey, 81% of women using the product observed that very dry patches of skin appeared to be healed after a month?s application. Intense Repair Concentrate retails at ?17.00 for a 45ml jar and can also be bought on Yves Rocher?s website.

On April 1, You're the Fool if You Don't Renew Your Resolution to Exercise

Mammoth Cave, KY (PRWEB) March 29, 2011

On April 1, you're the fool if you don't renew your resolution to exercise.

It's almost April, which means that most Americans are about 8 weeks past giving up on their New Year's resolution to get in shape and about 8 weeks away from the dreaded swimsuit season.

Fortunately, according to fitness experts Adam Steer & Ryan Murdock of BodyWeightCoach, people only need 4 weeks to make a difference, so if they get started now, they can be beach worthy with time to spare.

On the site, BodyWeightCoach.com, Steer and Murdock write about and produce videos to demonstrate body weight exercises, and also discuss diet, nutrition and even cook up some of the recipes in YouTube videos, along with their 1000 calorie challenge.

All of the content on the site is free and available to anyone who wants to get into shape. The exercises are effective and can be done in the privacy of the home or office without the time or money commitment of a formal gym.

According to Adam Steer, the most common reasons people give up on their goals and abandon their fitness routines are:

Lack of time - it's hard to get to the gym and it's a time commitment.
Lack of results - sometimes people don't exercise correctly, and as a result, they feel like they're working really hard, but they're not getting the results they think they should.
Lack of confidence - Many people, especially women, feel intimidated by the gym atmosphere. When you don't feel confident, you're less likely to continue going.

So how can the average person overcome these obstacles? Steer says that there is a secret the big health clubs do not want you to know? nobody actually needs a gym to get into the best shape of their life.

"For some reason, people think they need to have big, expensive equipment and an expensive gym membership to get in shape, and they just don't," said Steer. "On the BodyWeightCoach website, we explain and demonstrate the proper techniques for body weight exercises that burn fat and build muscle - and anyone can do all of the exercises right in their home, when they have time, for maximum results."
