If heaven has a fragrance, this is it.
I've been on the search for a Cocoa Butter Crème I found long ago in another era. It was whipped up by sisters in a joint on Telegraph Ave in San Francisco. It was the late 1970s, with hippies still meandering about, and life was lived without a bra, make-up or blow-out.
Hmm were those really the days?
But that era started something happening in natural body care. This Cocoa Butter Crème was my first encounter into the world of "clean" products, my golden ticket to beautiful soft skin, and perfect moisturizing. And the scent was nothing I’d ever scented before. It was crazy how men, women, children & pets just gravitated my way. Thought I had some charisma thing going, but later found out it was this cocoa scent they couldn’t get enough of.
I searched from Machu Picchu in Peru to Tuscany in Italy through the Australian Outback to African Villages looking for it. (Truth: I Googled myself silly, sent for dozens of samples, even tried making it, but came up with nothing even close.)
Then I gave up my quest and decided this crème would never
find its way on my skin again this lifetime. Then it happened. I found
the very closest thing to the original. Our Mochachino Body Butter! My
skin is smiling. My Mom's skin is radiant. The fragrance is gorgeous.
And if you’re wondering…adorable fellas, dashing men, teen girls,
elders, darling kids, loveable pets…. all come around to see what is it
that smells so darn delicious. It gives back that beautiful skin
texture of when you were a
Living
in La La Land (aka Los Angeles) I sometimes forget it's a desert. It's
dry.
As in crinkly, wrinkly, crying-my-eyes-out-over-some-idiot dry. (OK, I exaggerate. A lot.)
But a girl needs an effective body cream. And not one made with crummy chemicals!
So when my sister told me about Mimosa Blossom Dream Cream, I immediately started using it around mis ojos, which of course, you're not really supposed to do. But it rehydrated my poor little dry eye area so quickly, that I sneak in a little drop here and there, whenever I am ready to crack.

Purified mountain rain water, jojoba oil (simmondsia chinensis), olive
oil (olea europaea), sweet almond oil (prunus dulcis), apricot oil

grapefruit seed extract ( citrus paradisi), rosehip seed oil (rosa
mosqueta), shea butter (butyrospermun parkii), & essential oils

1. She's always (usually) right.

10. She has yummy smelling moisturizer you can steal when she's not looking. Or now that you're grown up and don't do stuff like that anymore, you can buy it here on the My Sister Says website. : )
One day I burned my finger with a teapot. For over 48 hours, I tried several drugstore remedies to stop the blistering and pain. Nothing worked.
Then my sister remembered this (weirdly spelled) colloidal Silver Gell she bought years before, hidden away in an old medicine cabinet in the basement of our 1890's Victorian house in Chicago's Lincoln Park.
She creaked open the lid (I was pretty dubious at this point—as always) delicately placed her finger in the gel, and put it on my finger. Within moments the pain starting leaving, and the blistering stopped. That simple. I continued applying it for a day and my finger healed perfectly. No scars.
Turns out, burn units in hospitals use silver to heal burns!
Now the My Sister Says girls use the colloidal Silver Gell for a zillion first aid reasons— cuts, rashes, diaper rash, chafing, and to calm after shave bumps and lumps.
Scent free, and not the least bit sticky, we think it’s pretty miraculous.

The power Repair Skin Care Kit is one of the best kept secrets on this planet & any other planet (should other planets need skin care)!
How do these products do what they do? the secret lies in their magic water - pure and rich with minerals and only found in the mountains of new Mexico where the rail up to their manufacturing is daunting.
We haven't made the trek ourselves, but use the Power Repair religiously because it works to moisturize and revive every skin type we've tried, including ours!
In fact, It works so fast, my sister and I noticed a difference the first time we tried it, with stubborn lines seeming to disappear immediately. (after all, who has time to wait to be beautiful?)
I hate it when my husband wrinkles up his nose at the scent of a face cream, So it's nice to know the Power Repair Kit products also have the most delicious extraordinary and completely natural fragrances we've found. Even my super persnickety hubby likes it!
