Emu Products Can Promote Healthier, Younger Looking Skin

Manassas, VA - After all the cookouts, beach trips and outdoor summer activities, your clients’ skin may have endured a little too much fun in the sun! With all the marketing slogans promoting ‘ageless beauty’, ‘wrinkle free skin’ and the infamous ‘anti-aging serum’ it is our job as professionals to educate clients about the benefits of using natural products for damaged skin. With the help of ancient Australian remedies, Thunder Ridge Emu Products strongly recommends Emu Oil to help repair summer skin damage.

Emu Oil has been used for centuries for its special moisturizing and natural aiding properties. It is one of the most promising rediscovered ancient remedies. Yet how is it unique from other skincare products aiding in ‘ageless beauty’? Emu Oil is loaded with beneficial antioxidants, which in turn will help slow down the aging process.

Emu Oil is almost 100% triglyceride lipid, a type of fatty compound that is also abundant in human skin lipids. Since emu and human lipids are almost identical, the absorption rate of Emu Oil into human skin is impressive. Being high in oleic acid, Emu Oil also increases the ability to carry compounds through the skin, thus completely hydrating your skin from the inside out.

Using Emu Oil, Thunder Ridge Emu Products has created two ultimate products to help your clients with summer skin damage. For immediate after sun attention, their Multi-Purpose Gel treats sunburns, heat rash, minor burns and chafing. It cools and soothes hot aching skin, applies smoothly and feels clean and fresh.

Thunder Ridge Moisturizing Lotion combines Emu Oil with other natural ingredients to provide a wonderful moisturizer for dry, flaky skin and also helps facilitate the healing of sun damaged, irritated skin. Emu Oil penetrates the epidermal skin layers down to the basal layer, which prevents loss of skin integrity. Use Thunder Ridge Moisturizing Lotion on the face and body to promote healing and strengthen barrier function of the skin. It feels silky smooth when applied, with no greasy feeling.

When it comes to promoting healthier, younger looking skin Emu Oil is the most promising solution to all your skincare needs.

EMU OIL, A BLAST FROM THE PAST

An Ancient Remedy Is the Hottest New Celebrity Skincare Trend

Manassas, VA - Emu Oil is most definitely THE blast from the past. The use of emu oil dates back over forty thousand years to the Ancient Australian Aborigine culture. Today this special oil has become one of the hottest new skincare treatments in today’s marketplace. It is being used by many Hollywood beauties such as Australian born Cate Blanchett.

In the beginning emus, a large flightless bird native to Australia, were hunted for their low fat red meat and oil. The oil was used as a moisturizer, for relief from chronic skin conditions, to help heal wounds and protect their skin form the harsh elements of wind and sun.

Nearly 70 years ago, emus were brought into the US, initially for use in zoos and as exotic pets. Eventually through research, word caught on that emus could provide a healthy red meat, fine leather, feathers and amazing oil with countless medical and cosmetic benefits. A growing number of users including professional sports teams, chiropractors, massage and physical therapists as well as other medical professionals report excellent results from emu oil based products. There are clinical studies with evidence documenting that it contains a high level of Omega 3, a substance known to ease the discomfort of joint and muscle pain.

Besides the long list of potential medical benefits, this ancient remedy is also used for cosmetic purposes. Maintaining good hydration, skin integrity and elasticity is essential for the prevention of dry, aging skin. The application of emu oil will allow the essential fatty acids to penetrate the epidermal layers of skin down to the basal layer where it enhances new cell proliferation. The hyper-oxygenation of the fatty acid esters contained in emu oil increase the local blood flow to the areas of application.

Cate Blanchett, the "down under stunner," was recently featured in Marie Claire Magazine; sharing her personal beauty routine with emu oil based products. "The indigenous communities in Australia have always used this to moisturize. Also, if you’re burned or have eczema it’s just incredible," notes Blanchett. Cate Blanchett uses Thunder Ridge Emu Products, the new skincare line just introduced by Thunder Ridge Emu Products, to moisturize her beautiful, yet pale skin.

Thunder Ridge Emu Products is a series of personal care products made from 100% American Emu Oil and other natural ingredients. The 16 successful products currently offered by Thunder Ridge Emu Products have been carefully researched and developed by owner Anne Geller. Emu Oil, the active ingredient in all the products, is rich in essential fatty acids including Omegas 3, 6 & 9. It is anti-bacterial, hypo-allergenic and a natural non-comedogenic, which means it will not clog pores. Small wonder it’s a favorite among skincare professionals!

THUNDER RIDGE CREATES NEW ACNE SOLUTIONS!

Today, You Can Fight Acne With Emu Oil

Manassas, VA - Cleanser, toner, lotion, acne cream... Cleanser, toner, lotion, acne cream... Many people who suffer from acneic skin don't realize that the vigorous routine, the expense and the time you devote to this challenge is not the complete answer. We often pile on more drug store products, medical prescriptions and the new best products that are readily promoted on TV on your face. Many of us even tend to use more than is needed and the end result is still the same – breakouts with irritated and inflamed skin. With the rising green and natural products industry, many new products, protocols and natural acne treatments have arrived. A very special product that is getting much attention is Thunder Ridge Emu Oil, one of many products created by Thunder Ridge Emu Products; a 100% natural skincare line using AEA certified emu oil.

Acne is most often an internal problem caused by many factors. It may be caused by the overproduction of oil, dead cells that have not been sloughed away, environmental grit, sweat and makeup. These elements may seep into our pores, causing irritation. Anne Geller, owner of Thunder Ridge Emu Products notes, "Our Emu Oil is non-comedogenic. It actually aids in opening the pores to release the excess oil your body is naturally producing. Many people are using facial cleansers that only cleanse topically. Instead, we recommend that after washing a good quality cleansing bar they use a natural anti-septic such as Witch Hazel followed by Emu Oil. The Emu Oil combined with witch hazel will reduce the amount of bacteria within pores."

Emu Oil is almost 100% triglyceride lipid, a type of fatty compound that is also abundant in human skin lipids. Since emu and human lipids are almost identical, the absorption rate of Emu Oil into human skin is incredible! Studies have shown that the Emu Oil effectively penetrates through the epidermal layers of the skin down to the basal layer. This is where it starts repairing and nourishing the skin, which is why professional estheticians apply after intense acne treatments.

Thunder Ridge Emu Oil is made up of Essential Fatty Acids including Omega 3 (Linolenic), Omega 6 (Linoleic) and Omega 9 (Oleic). These Essential Fatty Acids have proven to be the nutrition your skin requires to remain healthy. Every day our bodies produce 300 billion new cells and each one of these cells needs Essential Fatty Acids to build strong cell walls. Omega 3 is a natural anti-inflammatory that aids in reducing inflammation that is caused by acne. Applying Emu Oil to puffy acneic areas will reduce the redness and inflammation. Also, if you have received intense, deep cleansing acne treatments, your face may be swollen, red or irritated. Applying Thunder Ridge Emu Oil will aid in cell restoration and calm areas of inflammation.

Nadine Toriello, esthetician at All About You Day Spa in Key West, FL professionally recommends Emu Oil to her clients. She notes, "I use Thunder Ridge Emu Oil in my treatment rooms. I've personally suffered from acne. When I used Thunder Ridge Emu Oil, I found that my inflammation went away and I also experienced less irritation. Some of my clients are a bit apprehensive about using Emu Oil because they believe they already have oily skin. However, I find that Emu Oil balances their skin and shows immediate results. For a great acne treatment I cleanse three times using a marine enzyme, which exfoliates the skin without scrubbing and this acts as a chemical exfoliant. Afterwards, I massage their face with Thunder Ridge Emu Oil to repair and moisturize. By using emu oil with their facial treatments, I assure them success."

Emu Oil Has Many Extra Special Benefits: With much research as evidence, Emu Oil has found its way into more and more dermatology offices, skincare clinics, day spas, natural product stores and your homes. No matter the age or degree of acne, Emu Oil is respected today as a safe and important ingredient option for many beautycare, health and wellness treatments. Thunder Ridge Emu Oil is hypo-allergenic, non-comedogenic, anti-inflammatory, absorbent and an extreme moisturizer, it is also hyper-oxygenated. Geller, adds, "You can actually see it work. Put a drop on your cheek and massage it into your skin. Your skin will immediately flush. That is the oxygen and blood being drawn to the applied area. If you can get the oxygen to the surface of the skin you can accelerate healing. It works beautifully after intense acne facials and on scars up to two years old."

Skincare Challenges & New Solutions: Most people who suffer from acne rely on their dermatologists and estheticians to provide the perfect solution. Prescribing creams and medications that are loaded with steroids may not be the best answer for you. Studies have shown that some of these solutions may cause severe liver damage among other side effects. As more people are taking responsibility for their own health, they are becoming increasingly aware of more health conscious options.

WHY EMU OIL IN SKINCARE PRODUCTS?

Thunder Ridge Emu Products Made With 100% Pure Emu Oil

Manassas, VA - Thunder Ridge Emu Products is proud to announce the use of 100% pure AEA Certified American emu oil in all of their 16 professional skin care products. Many may wonder why emu oil is valuable to skin care or how it works to promote healthy skin. The truth is that there are many factors that stand behind why emu oil should be the number one skincare choice.

How Does Emu Oil Work?

Triglyceride Lipid: Emu oil is almost 100% triglyceride lipid, a type of fatty compound that is also abundant in human skin lipids. Since emu and human lipids are almost identical, the absorption rate of emu oil into human skin is incredible!

Oleic Acid: Emu oil is high in oleic acid, which increases its ability to carry compounds through the skin, thus hydrating the skin form the inside out.

Antioxidants: Emu oil is packed with antioxidants which attack the free radicals we have in our bodies that excelerate the aging process.

Omega Fatty Acids: One of the most important factors to why emu oil is beneficial is that it contains 22 essential fatty acids, including Omega 3, 6, and 9. These components expedite healing effects on burns, stiff and swollen joints, chronic skin conditions, muscle pain and more. The Omega 3's have anti-inflammatory and anti-coagulant properties as well as other important health benefits. They reduce inflammation and can provide protection against cardiovascular disease, arthritis, skin conditions, depression and other mood-related disorders.

Omega 3 and Omega 6 interact with each other so the balance between them is vital for good health. Together they have an impact on inflammation in the body and all functions at a cellular level. Omega 6 also maintains healthy skin, hair and nails.

Omega 9 oils are monounsaturated and are found in olive oil. The monounsaturated oil is known to have beneficial health effects and may be necessary for healthy immune system functioning.

Emu oil contains a multitude of natural elements that are important to our bodies and are a good way to ensure you are getting essential nutrients for your good health inside and out. In conclusion, we should not be asking ‘Why emu oil? but ‘Why NOT emu oil?'.
