Non-Toxic Nail Polish AND Polish Remover are Here!

Posted on Mar 28th, 2008 by GreenSpaSource : Green Enabler GreenSpaSource

Yes, you read it correctly, non-toxic nail polish AND polish remover!

priti_polish.jpg

Priti nail polishes are:

*toulene, DBP (dibutyl phthalate), and formaldahyde-free

*safe for mothers, mothers-to-be, and their princesses (with even a separate Little Princess Polish line in over 12 colors)

*actively sought after by cancer patients and those who are conciencious about what they put on their bodies (especially given how porous our nails are).

*fast drying and chip resistant

*super durable and super glossy

*non-yellowing and include UV inhibitor

*cruelty-free / not tested on animals

*available in over 80 colors

*packaged in 100% recyclable packaging

The first reaction we usually get from spas & salons is, "non-toxic polishes don't wear long, and the color selection is usually not too good".  So they've been pleasantly surprised with Priti. We find this polish lasts just as long as our OPI and Essie polishes...really!

Priti Soy Polish Remover is:

*100% biodegradable

*100% soy and corn based

*non-toxic

*non-carcinogenic

Organic Detox Tea Outside Your Sauna/ Steam Room

Posted on Mar 27th, 2008 by GreenSpaSource : Green Enabler GreenSpaSource

What could be more appropriate to offer your clients outside the sauna than iced, caffeine-free, Organic Detox Tea?

Set your spa apart from the rest by helping your clients enhance the detoxifying effects of the sauna by offering them Organic Detox Tea to help rid toxins from the inside as well as the outside.

Mighty Leaf Tea offers Organic Detox tea in bulk brew bags so you can brew 1 gallon at a time...for less than $1.00/gallon. This means the same Mighty Leaf high-quality, whole-leaf, artisan tea in an organic, spa appropriate offering at tremendous cost savings when compared to others or individual tea bags...and it's labor saving as well, especially when brewed in a 2 gallon container!

Here is what Mighty Leaf says about their Organic Detox Tea

"The cleansing properties of this blend relax the nerves, organs and membranes as dandelion targets the liver, licorice root nurtures the heart and spleen and burdock root purifies the blood. Red clover, mint and hearty herbs add anti-inflammatory qualities, calm the stomach and reduce blood sugar levels. A warming and delicately sweet blend. This tea is delicious hot or iced."

CeramicCrocksWithStand150


For presentation outside the sauna, offer it in one of Mighty Leaf's gorgeous ceramic crocks,

 or your own glass or plastic pitchers with mint (and lemons if desired) floating in the top for a beautiful visual presentation.


Want to offer this organic minty brew hot in your relaxation room, we can help you do that too! (They also offer Organic Vibrance tea in the same bulk brew bags)

For more information, please contact us at Nancy@WholesaleSpaSource.com

Did we mention it's delicious as well? We drink it in the office all the time!

WSS partners with Smart Glass Jewelry

Posted on Mar 7th, 2008 by GreenSpaSource : Green Enabler GreenSpaSource


Wholesale Spa Source partners with Smart Glass Jewelry ---Turn your empties into eco-friendly, stylish jewelry to improve your bottom line... and help the planet!


SG Asymmeterical necklace
SG Large hoops

 

Wholesale Spa Source announces its alliance with Smart Glass Jewelry, http://www.smartglassjewelry.com/, to provide eco-friendly jewelry in its offerings (in addition to great companies such as Alaska Glacial Mud, Mighty Leaf Teas, GG2G, etc.)


SG Large Charm necklace



Kathleen Plate, the owner and artisan behind Smart Glass, handcrafts jewelry from recycled glass bottles of all types, silver solder and sterling silver. Each piece is an original, one-of-a-kind, work of art.


Actress Sienna Miller even donned a pair of Smart Glass' beer bottle earrings at the most recent Sundance Film Festival.


Here's what (important) people are saying about Smart Glass:


"The delicate lariats, edgy hoops, and bold necklaces of the "Open" line manage to be colorful and eye-catching without being overwhelming... A lariat crafted out of a recycled Aveda bottle does wonders to dress up a beater, and summer festivals dedicated to the Dionysian pleasure of drinking are the perfect time to sport hoops made from recycled beer and wine bottles."

-www.SocialDiva.com


"Smart Glass proves that you can be green AND gorgeous without sacrificing

style." -Robanne Schulman, Celebrity Stylist- Atlanta


 "- it's not only eco-friendly, but incredibly well-made and stylish. I think I must wear a different piece each week and always receive compliments. Whenever I

have a magazine shoot or broadcast interview, I wear Smart Glass - "

-Laura Turner Seydel, eco-lifestyle expert and activist


"Kathleen's pieces are some of the greatest little treasures I've ever uncovered."

-Summer Rayne Oakes, eco-fashion expert



Kathleen & Smart Glass have been featured on The Today Show, and in the Washington Post, Bon Appetit, Pink (one of WSS's favorite magazines), Intown Atlanta, TreeHugger.com, SocialDiva.com, Sundance Film Festival, and countless others  The influence of Kathleen and her Smart Glass is so great that she has been commissioned to design a sculpture, using her recycled glass rings, for the United Nations.


And the best part (we think)? Smart Glass will custom make a line of jewelry (or ornaments) for your spa or boutique from your empty bottles!  Does your business use products packaged in glass bottles (i.e. skin care or beverages)? Is your city or town known for a certain bottled beverage (i.e. water, wine, or beer)? Why not let Smart Glass recycle your empties into products which are unique to your business and set you apart from the others (not to mention improve your bottom line)? Aveda and Coke do...why shouldn't you? Smart Glass even makes custom lamp fixtures using recycled glass rings (time to redecorate!).


Don't have any empties for your own line, no problem, Smart Glass has a beautiful line of their own for you made from water, Coke, wine, beer, Skyy Vodka, and many other bottles.


Own an Aveda Spa? Contact us about the Aveda line made especially for Aveda Spas from recycled Aveda bottles.


Does recycling get any cooler than this? We think not!
