Final Day For Free Shipping and Gift At Aveda

When I was a hairdresser, I worked in a salon that sold Aveda products. In order to better educate us about the products we used and sold in the salon, an Aveda professional came out for a visit and did a demonstration.  The demonstration was performed on me. I was nervous, because the demo was on skin care and back then I had a bunch of little teeny-tiny bumps on my forehead, almost more like a rash than pimples. I was so self-conscious about the blemishes.

The skin tech used the products on me and the change was swift, it felt like the bumps were smoothing over. He explained that they were a reaction of stress and that the products would counteract the blemishes (my first lesson in aromatherapy). I don’t remember the exact science, it was a long time ago and like any facial I’d been a party to before or since, I was relaxed and sleepy.

The point of my story is that Aveda products have always had a sort of magical feel to me. They smell incredible, in particular, the Shampure shampoo. The Shampure fragrance is also available in a candle. It has one of those scents that make me feel like I want to bury my nose in it and sniff  deeply (okay, yeah, that sounds silly, but it’s my honest reaction).  Shampure’s fragrance is a combination of over 25 pure  organic flower and plant essences, among them lavender, ylang-ylang, bergamot, rosemary, peppermint, and orange.
