What do you use to preserve your products if you do not use chemicals?
Miessence products are preserved using a natural and organic preservative system, which
includes our proprietary blend of steam-distilled aromatic derivatives of natural herbs, leaves
and twigs. The stability of our unique products is supported by long term, real-time stability
testing, microbiological challenge testing, analysis of types of packaging in use, assessment
of the potential for microbial contamination, reviewing analytical data from suppliers, quality
control testing of raw materials and finished products, ensuring our manufacturing facilities
minimise exposure to contaminants, understanding consumer habits and practices, and,
importantly, our R&D director's extensive experience with her home-grown, unique
formulations.
We recommend that you use the products up within 6 months of opening to ensure you get the
benefit of the cold-formulation and freshly extracted herbal, floral and fruit extracts.
How many roses are in a bottle of the hydrating mist?
The Rose Monsoon Hydrating Mist contains the equivalent of 45 organic roses.
What is the pH of your shampoos?
The pH of our shampoos is between 5.5 and 6.5.
What is the pH of the soaps?
The pH of the soaps is around 9.
What is the pH of the Sunflower body wash?
The pH of the Sunflower body wash is 5.5 and 6.5.
Are the Miessence foundations non-comedogenic?
Yes, the foundations are non-comedogenic. They will not block your pores, or cause
breakouts.
Why don't the mineral masks have an expiry date?
The masks will keep, unopened, for more than 30 months. In this case, expiry dates are not
required. We recommend that once the mask has been opened, that it is used up within 30
months.
The masks contain kaolin clay. I thought this smothered and weakened the skin. Can you
please clarify?
All of our masks contain clay. As clay dries, it attracts and absorbs impurities from the skin. It
not great to be left on the skin all day, as it would dehydrate the skin, but it is very effective for
the cleansing purpose it is intended.
Is a spray-on deodorant in the plans?
Current technology does not allow for such a product to be made organically. Our deodorant
formulas are too thick to be sprayed.
Will you be coming out with a RED lip crème?
Unfortunately there are no natural, organic pure red colourings available for something like
this. The only options are using crushed bugs (cochineal) and toxic FD&C colours, which we
won't do.
Do your soaps contain any water?
Water is used in the manufacturing process. You can't make soap without water!
I have acne, which products should I use?
The Purifying Skin Essentials Pack: Cleanser, Skin Conditioner and Moisturiser, in
combination with the Garnet Exfoliant, Purifying Mask and Purifying Blemish Gel. The daily
regime should include:
Cleansing
Skin Conditioning
Treatment with Blemish Gel
Moisturising
For the first week, include daily exfoliating and masking. For the second week exfoliate and
mask every second day, for the third week every third day and so forth until you are exfoliating
and masking just once or twice a week to keep the skin clear.
Depending on your individual health – metabolism, eating habits, and medications – some
people experience a detoxification once they start using organic products. You may see a
worsening of symptoms before things clear up. This means that your body is simply
eliminating the toxins stored in your body over time. Human skin cells are renewed every 4-5
weeks, which should give a good indication of the possible duration of your 'detox'. The
products should not dry your skin out
I have psoriasis, which products should I use?
Either the Rejuvenating or Soothing Moisturiser would be suitable. If the skin is still dry, I
suggest mixing the moisturiser in the palm of your hand with a few drops of either the
Rejuvenessence or Ambrosia Essence, which will provide extra nourishment. Using the Rose
Monsoon Hydrating Mist during the day will soothe and hydrate your skin. We also suggest In-
Liven to recolonise your intestinal tract with healthy bacteria.
I have eczema on my body, which products should I use?
Eczema is an external symptom of an internal condition. A visit to a health practitioner to
address the internal cause of the eczema would be advised. The Intensive Body Cream and
Soothing Couperose Gel and Intensive Body Cream will help to soothe and soften eczema.
We also suggest In-Liven to recolonise your intestinal tract with healthy bacteria.
I have rosacea, which products should I use?
I would recommend our Soothing Cleanser, Soothing Skin Conditioner, Soothing Couperose
Gel to calm redness, and Soothing Moisturiser to soothe and protect. The Purifying Blemish
Gel would be appropriate if it develops into inflamed acne, and the Soothing Mask would
gently soothe and tone irritated skin. Miessence skin care is suitable for the most sensitive
skin. We also suggest In-Liven to recolonise your intestinal tract with healthy bacteria.
What is the SPF of the foundations?
Although our foundations contain zinc oxides, which provide protection from UV radiation, we
cannot claim an SPF on our products because they are not listed with the TGA.
What is the strong herbal aroma of Ambrosia Essence?
As you have noticed - the Ambrosia Essence is not a perfume. It is a very potent herbal
concoction designed to impart the highest benefit for the skin. Organic unrefined tamanu oil
has a strong aroma, but the benefits far outweigh any unpleasantness of the aroma. Tamanu
oil is pressed from the dark chocolate-brown kernels of the Tamanu tree that grows profusely
along the coastline of the Pacific Islands. Tamanu oil possesses the unique capacity to
promote cicatrisation thereby improving the appearance of wounds and healthy skin alike. It
is used widely in the Pacific islands as a folk medicine, and is applied liberally to cuts,
scrapes, burns, insect bites and stings, abrasions, acne and acne scars, psoriasis, diabetic
sores, sunburn, dry or scaly skin, blisters, and eczema. Most people who have used it find it
quite appealing in its raw naturalness. Ambrosia Essence is an extremely potent combination
eight highly effective herbal and flower extracts to soothe, tone, and renew the skin.
Can I use your products if I'm allergic to aloe vera?
Unfortunately, there is not much we can do with that, because our products are based on aloe
vera. Products that don't contain aloe vera are our shimmer crèmes, lip cremes, blush
powders, and mineral foundation powders.
How do you pronounce miessence® ?
The correct pronunciation of miessence® is "MY-ESSENCE".
Why do some of the miessence® products contain alcohol?
Herbs and flowers are the core of miessence® Skin and Personal Care formulations and
alcohol is used to extract plant materials. The alcohol used is of the highest food quality
standard-primarily derived from fruits, potatoes and occasionally grain. The percentage of
alcohol used does not approach a concentration that would be considered harmful in any way;
it is not drying to the skin. Alcohol carries active plant extracts into the skin. A natural
emulsifier and stabilizer; alcohol acts as a preservative.
Why do your products have an expiration date?
Although not required by law for products with a shelf life longer than two and a half years,
ONE Group provides this information as a guideline for freshness.
