Ojo Caliente Mineral Springs Resort & Spa Announces a Line of Signature Body Care Products that are All-natural, Not Tested on Animals and Chemical Free

Ojo Caliente, NM (PRWEB) May 25, 2012

Ojo Caliente Mineral Springs Resort & Spa has recently introduced its natural and organic signature body care line, which features nine products of custom blended scents in either Desert Rain or Desert Sage, plus a shimmery Mica Creme. The two scents are derived from pure essential oils and wild-crafted herbs and plants indigenous to Northern New Mexico. All of the products are paraben-free, sulfate-free, 74%-93% organic, are not-tested on animals, and are free of toxic and synthetic chemical ingredients. The body creams are particularly beneficial for dry skin. The Ojo Caliente Signature Body Care products are now for sale in the Ojo Gift Shop and web store, with four of the products also being offered as amenities in Ojos guest rooms. The amber retail bottles are made of PET, an environmentally and health-friendly inert plastic. The in-room amenities are delivered in stylish dispensers to avoid contributing disposable bottles to the landfill.

The Ojo Signature products have been developed with a Santa Fe master herbalist, using native plants, harvested by hand at optimal time, in sustainable fashion with respect to the land. The fresh, earthy Ojo line is meant to enhance the guests therapeutic experience by harnessing the healing properties of these high desert plants. Guests can bottle their experience, take it with them and re-connect to Ojo wherever they may be.

The Desert Sage and Desert Rain lines each include shampoo, conditioner, body wash and body cream. The star ingredient found in Ojos Mica Creme is in fact micaa glittery mineral harvested from the Mica Caves at Ojo. Native Americans were known to crush the Mica and adorn their bodies with the sparkling chips for sacred ceremony. Mica acts as a crystal and creates a barrier to protect the skin while magnifying and reflecting light. The Mica Creme adds a natural shimmer, which brightens overall tone and complexion and aids in regenerating the skin. Each product features the properties of different essential oils, herbs and plants; for example, the yucca root in Ojos wild crafted shampoo has been used in the Southwest for centuries for its cleansing properties. Vitamins B & E enhance conditioning, while calendula softens your hair. The essential oils in the Desert Sage formula include pine needle for its purifying and decongestant qualities, and desert sage for its cleansing and antibacterial properties. The oils used in the Desert Rain Body Creme include cedarwood for its antiseptic and astringent qualities, geranium as an immune-stimulating tonic, and lavender for its antiviral and sedative qualities.

"The Ojo Signature Body Care was developed to complement the many natural elements that are part of Ojo, including the sacred waters and treasured land. It was our intention, by using native plants indigenous to the area, to capture a sense of place that is unique to Ojo and the high desert of Northern New Mexico," said Jen Scott, owner.

Both scents are being very well received by all of our guests, and the earthy Desert Sage line has been especially appealing to men, she added. She also mentioned Ojos plan to take the line of products into the spa as amenities for day guests.

A full list of the carefully formulated ingredients of each product can be found at http://www.ojospa.com. The Desert Rain and Desert Sage products range in price from $ 17 to $ 23, and $ 40 for the Mica Creme.

Eldon James Announces a Breakthrough for Beverage Delivery Systems: Tubing Proven to Help Eliminate Bacteria

Denver, CO (PRWEB) December 13, 2012

A significant challenge for the beverage industry has been to assure that businesses that dispense their product adhere to the stringent cleaning standards required to eliminate the buildup of bacteria and biofilm in beverage delivery lines. This biofilm can adversely affect taste and the quality of the product at the consumer level. Because of this reality, the beverage industry has long sought after a solution to help increase consistency and quality of their product between cleaning cycles.

Extensive testing was conducted by the prestigious Research Center Weihenstephan for Brewing and Food Technology in Freising, Germany. It was concluded that the FlexeleneTM Silver (PVC Free) Tubing was 100% effective in reducing the concentrations of 3 of the most common beer and beverage spoiling bacteria after 2,000 liters of flow as well as statically. The most astonishing result is the complete elimination of Lactobacillus brevis, which is determined to be the most frequently detected microorganism in beer.

The study concluded that, Eldon James FlexeleneTM Silver Tubing is now expected to have a significant impact on the food and beverage industry.

Eldon James is a woman owned, Colorado based manufacturer with international reach that has continued to see growth through difficult economies. Their innovations in antimicrobial and PVC Free tubing and fittings have continued to strengthen their position in the food and beverage industry.
