Ilike Organic Skin Care Product Summary


 
Ilike Hungarian Organic Skin Care
 
 
(This is a summary of an educational class I took with Jessica, one of the ilike skin care reps, over Skype) We carry & use this wonderful product at Fusions Healing Center & Spa located in Sylva, NC)
 
 
Ilike (pronounced like Ilika) was started in rural Hungary dating back to the late 1950’s. Auntie Ilike (or Aunt Ilcsi as she is known by Hungarians) combined her herbal knowledge with biochemistry and aesthetic studies to create an effective & pure organic skin-care line. Growing up in a family with generations of herbalists, she always believed in natural solutions, and to this day the company’s philosophy is that “nature provides everything we need & live beautifully.”  For 53 years, Ilike Organic Skin Care has been providing spa professionals with solution oriented, problem solving skin-and body care products targeting all skin conditions. Here’s what I got from the Skype class:

 

Ilike has been featured in many Spa Magazines. Auntie Lika, as Jessica referred to her, was a medicinal, herbal, medicine woman. She knew herbs & items from nature that could cure ailments, heal wounds, and pretty much do wonders for your skin using only nature. These recipes were passed down to her by her grandmother & her great grandmother. Her great-grandmother thoroughly schooled Auntie Lika in the art of natural healing. She became the village herbalist, literally saving lives with her herbal remedies.

 

Auntie Lika grew up in the late 1950’s when she started working as an esthetician. Hungry was a communist country therefore her access to skin care products was limited & the products you could get were not effective. She learned from her great-grandmother the medicinal effects of herbs, fruits, & vegetables, especially when eating them, & the wonderful effects they had for skin & body care. She started formulating products in her kitchen. Soon she began making them for other estheticians. She began her company with her son several years later. Her approach to skin analysis included both the hydration level and the specific symptom analysis, while discussing lifestyle habits, diet, & environmental factors with the client.

Read on & you’ll see why Ilike is so natural, pure, & fantastic!

 

*ADDRESSING EMENINCE SKIN CARE:

Auntie Lika has the original skin care recipes that Ilike uses today. The man who bought the name Eminence, use to work as a business partner with Auntie Lika. After several years of seeing the success of the natural organic products he wanted to start adding synthetic ingredients to the products to cut down on costs, & be able to mass market & make more money. Auntie Lika said no and the Eminence name was bought by this man & Auntie Lika started Ilike (as it is labeled in America) In Hungry & other countries it is labeled szepelet.  So today if you want the original organic skin care line created from the herbal recipes passed down from generations, don’t be fooled by Eminence & remember Ilike is the original organic line we all have loved for the past 53 years!

 

Ilike products certified by the strictest worldwide organizations!

 

Ilike organic skin care products have received the BDIH Certificate. They also add this qualification to their Manufacture’s Hungarian Organic Certification. These two certificates-along with the ISO 9001:2001 Quality Control Certification-guarantees that their customers receive the purest skin care products by the strictest worldwide standards!

 

To sum up the guidelines for the BDIH Certificate, here’s a few things to help you understand how strict they are & how natural & effective the Ilike products are. They are picked & processed by hand so neither the products nor the surrounding vegetation are damaged. The ingredients are grown in Hungarian rich organic soil that has never come in contact w/pesticides & chemicals. Hungarian climate is perfect for harvesting crops. The soil used to grow the vegetation for your skin care products is rich in trace-elements, minerals, & nutrients. Products like fresh algae (which is used Ilike Nettle Products) is collected from the hydrating mineral soil of the Hungarian rivers & banks. The trace minerals in the soil along with the perfect growing climate, produces algae that is handpicked, extracted, and blended w/some other natural anti-oxidant rich ingredients producing the Ilike Nettle Cleansing Wash & Nettle & Algae Treatment which is perfect for u smokers & drinkers. Also perfect for acne prone skin. There are no perfumes, parabans, or synthetic & chemical ingredients in any Ilike product. Their biggest statement is “We use pulps, not extracts!” Pulps retain the full concentration of the fruit, herb, or vegetable. They are handpicked & processed by hand so the pulps are not damaged.


 

So the guidelines to become a BDIH certified natural organic cosmetic brand are: 1. Raw materials obtained from plants. 2. Animal Protection 3. Raw materials obtained from minerals 4. No synthetic dyes, fragrances, silicones, paraffin or petroleum products 5. To make sure products are microbiologically safe (b/c there so natural), certain nature-identical preservatives are allowed 6. No radioactive radiation 7. Compliance with guidelines of Certified Natural Cosmetics. So with all the tender,loving,organic care that goes into making one single Ilike product, the cost is well worth the health, hydration, & anti-aging results found in each container. If clients really understood the benefits of these products like I did today, they would be buying them by the dozens. lol

 

Ilike is: lifting, firming, rejuvenating, anti-aging, anti-oxidant rich, made of natural, organic pulps, anti-inflammatory (most all the ilike products are anti-inflammatory & packed full of anti-oxidants & age reversing materials), smoothing, detoxifying, promotes collagen production (ex-Q-10 serum, Pumpkin & Quince Mask, Rich Carrot Mask & Moisturizer).  Each product which I’ve now learned better is targeted towards a specific skin type, & when used correctly & regularly can improve the overall look, feel, & health of your skin.

  1. Our skin is the largest organ in our body. It serves as a shield and protection of the inside of our body from the harmful elements in our environment. It defenses our body from microbes, pollution, and other destructive factors. In fact, our skin somewhat helps our body gets rid of toxins by means of perspiration. Furthermore, our skin also regulates our body temperature. With those things in mind, it is just important that we take care of our skin.
