Most men will say they prefer a natural beauty. No silicone, acrylic nails, or fake tans. But even real beauties need extra assistance sometimes.

That's why one local mother with remarkably flawless skin created a luxurious organic skin care collection made with natural ingredients that produce clear results.

Every product in Kailua resident Michelle Garcia's new Pure & True line starts with a healing aloe base, antioxidant-rich organic green and white tea extracts, Hawaiian deep seawater, and detoxifying, mineral-rich marine extracts to restore your skin to a purer state.

From accessibly-priced Intensive C and multi-vitamin serums; gentle passion fruit and hibiscus micro-dermabrasion scrub; a rooibos, rose and pomegranate hydrating masque; to a refreshing deep-sea cleanser, everything is 70-percent organic, 95-percent natural, and optimum PH-balanced nourishment. You'll never spot carcinogenic or birth defect-causing chemical ingredients (that means no parabens, phthalates, coloring, artificial fragrance, sulfates, or petroleum-derived elements).

And if the subtle aromatherapy fragrance, made from a blend of rose, jasmine and neroli oils, isn't enough to begin rejuvenation, Michelle's promise to donate five percent of sales to charity just might make you want to perform a selfless cleansing act, too.

Pure & True is available at Hot Mama Maternity, 3435 Waialae Ave #106A (behind Town Restaurant, facing Ninth Avenue) and online at Future Natural.
