Phyto Chemicals: A Healthy Way to Beauty

Phytochemicals are the elements within particular plants that give them healing properties.

Phytochemicals are believed to contribute to the prevention of many health conditions, including heart disease, diabetes, and high blood pressure. It’s also been found that certain phytochemicals may help to inhibit the formation of potential carcinogens (cancer-causing substances), reduce the potency of carcinogens on organs or tissue, and prevent cancer development in cells.

Found in fruits, vegetables, beans, grains, and other plants, phytochemicals are powerful components within plant extracts, oils, and essential oils, which are the main ingredient in natural perfumes.

The fragrances and antioxidant-infused oils that comprise the Organic Living Flower Collection by Tsi-La Natural Perfume & Organics offer a variety of formulations that are rich in phytochemicals. The Mini Collection includes:

Ilang Ilang - “An enchanting and seductive blend of exotic florals is laced with sugared citrus fruits and luscious vanilla orchids to create a stirring feminine fragrance that's steeped in summer.”

Kesu - “Elegant notes of warm amber and precious rare woods are combined with the seductive, smoky incense of narcotic jasmine petals, davana, exotic spices, and fresh lime to create a mysterious, unisex fragrance steeped in sensuality.”

Fleur Sauvage - “A sultry combination of tuberose, fresh neroli, Italian bergamot, and rich blond woods that offers the promise of dangerous pleasures.”

Kizes - “A delicious sun-kissed blend of Sicilian bergamot and juicy clusters of elderflower blossoms meld with a sensual infusion of voluptuous tuberose, jasmine petals, and the delicate orange flower to create a pure, playful unisex fragrance.”

The ingredients within each of the Collection’s fragrance offerings are known to contain such phytochemicals such as betulinic acids, flavanoids, Ursolic acid, quercetin, rutin, beta-carotene, Tocopherols, Omega 6 and 9.

These phytochemicals have been shown to offer anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and anticancer benefits.

Natural and organic perfumes offer a clean, pure way to bring fragrances into your life, and Tsi-La’s Organic Living Flower Mini Collection goes a step further by delivering additional healthful benefits that can enhance your inner well-being.

Fall in Love with Tsi-La

2012-02-07T08:25:00.003-05:00

LOVE LOVE LOVE Misaki! My search for the perfect earthy lavender scent is over. There's no comparison between the traditional department store scents and organic perfumery. Traditional scents feel like an "assault" on the nose, very strong and off-putting. And they're all beginning to smell alike no matter how many new ones are released. Organic scents are incredibly complex and original, and the only way to go, in my opinion.
Thanks for creating such a wonderful product.
- Barbara

Hello! I just wanted to write a quick note regarding my recent purchase. I absolutely LOVE your products!!! I am extremely satisfied with my purchase and will be ordering again soon.
Keep making these wonderful product:)
Thank you,
- Kelly

I want to let you know I adore my Ilang Ilang Perfume Oil and it's versatility. My husband and I both enjoy this fragrance (maybe because we were married in Hawaii?) Also, it's so convenient for travel whether it's just in my purse around town or off long distance. The packaging and bottle are beautiful. I've also owned your set of 4 perfume oils (and think it's terrific now that I will be able to choose the fragrances in my next set.) The sets are also wonderful to give as gifts. May be not. Will definitely be making another purchase around the holidays!
- Thanks, Susan

Thank you so much for your great products, they smell divine, and excellent customer service!
- Sincerely, Rosemary

Love your perfumes. I'm saving money to purchase Kizes next. Girls at work love the fragrances. Have given them your name. Thanks
- Alicia

Saqui, where have you been all my life? It is such an amazing fragrance, quite reminiscent of the autumn season...rich, woody and intoxicating. You MUST consider developing a matching body creme/lotion to go with it! :)
- Wendy

I love "Saqui". It has a fabulous sexy, beach-y smell!

Essential Oils: Perfect Valentine's Day (and Year-Round) Romance Enhancers That Can Stimulate Your Sacral Chakras

2012-01-18T15:26:00.002-05:00

Essential oils, which are the key ingredient in organic perfumes, offer an
effective way for women to balance and cleanse their “Sacral Chakra”.

For those unfamiliar with chakras, they’re a Hindu term referring to the
energy centers in our bodies that run along the spine.

The sacral chakra is located in the sacrum, a large, triangular bone at the
base of the spine and at the upper and back part of the pelvis. Sacral
chakra is thought to correspond to the testes or the ovaries, which produce
the various sex hormones involved in the reproductive cycle. The sacral
chakra also governs creativity, joy, and enthusiasm.

Aphrodisiac oils – such as jasmine, ilang-ilang, sandalwood, and black
pepper - can be helpful in stimulating one’s sacral chakra (in particular,
your sexual drive). Jasmine, bergamot and sandalwood oils are also
effective in enabling users to balance their male and female energies.

Tsi-La offers two unique formulations that are designed to energize and
strengthen your sacral chakra.

Our *Fleur Sauvage *contains both jasmine and sandalwood essential oils. It
also blends fresh neroli, Italian bergamot, and the mysterious white flower, tuberose – which, according to legend, causes young girls to be overcome
with desire when they breathe in its aroma at nightfall.

*Ilang Ilang*, another popular Tsi-La blend, contains ilang ilang (an
antiseptic herb that boosts sensuality) and jasmine essential oils. Its
ingredients also include sugared citrus fruits and vanilla orchids.

Sacral chakras that are open and balanced can create pleasure, desire, and
intimacy. Organic perfumes that contain the specific essential oils which
invigorate one’s sacral chakra offer a convenient, attractive, and
effective way for women to enhance their own sexuality - and also inspire
romance.

PLANT TO PERFUME: Life Cycle of a Tsi~La ‘Living Flower’ Perfume

2012-01-06T15:06:00.010-05:00

Plant

The use of naturals is an opportunity to capture the

true essence of nature –

its fragrant florals, sweet fruits, exotic grasses,

rare woods and aromatic spices

Grow

As many of our ingredients as possible are grown using

organic farming methods.

We also use wildcrafted ingredients that ensure sustainability

Harvest

Essential oils are distilled from the leaves,

roots, bark, seeds and flowers.

Sometimes it takes a great deal of plant material

to produce a small amount of essential oils

Distill

Distillation is an art in itself.

Our essential oils are steam distilled or cold pressed

to preserve the subtle energy of the ingredients.

Compound

Tsi~La perfumes are blended carefully by hand in artisan size

batches from the world’s finest essential oils and plant botanicals

Age

Our ‘living flower’ perfumes are aged to reveal the true complexity

of the natural material and the soul of the plant.

The ageing process fuses the flowers, spices, woods

and resins with the food-grade alcohol and develops into our luxurious perfumes

Bottle

Our carefully crafted pre-fixation materials blend

and enhance the finished perfume.

Tsi~La perfumes are combined with antioxidants

and certified organic, food-grade sugar cane alcohol

that is denatured with our pure essential oils

PERFUME

As the pioneers in authentic perfumery, we use only ingredients from

the earth to ensure a true holistic experience

Everything You don't want in Perfume, Tsi-La Leaves out!

What Tsi-La’s perfumes don’t contain…

synthetic chemical denaturants

synthetic ingredients

synthetic colors

phlatalates

synthetic preservatives

Denaturants are an important ingredient in perfumes. They’re used to make the alcohol in the mixture undrinkable (alcohol is a component in all perfumes). While commercial fragrances contain synthetic chemical denaturants (which may be harmful to humans), Tsi-La uses organic sugar cane alcohol that’s denatured by natural essential oils.
All of the pure ingredients in our fragrances are derived exclusively from natural origins and not from synthetically made (and potentially harmful) chemicals.
The use of synthetic colors is widespread in commercial fragrances; but in Tsi-La’s? No way! All of the lovely colors within Tsi-La’s fragrances come from the natural shades and hues of our 100% pure ingredients.
Phthalates are unnatural chemicals (high doses have been shown to change hormone levels and cause birth defects) that extend the life of fragrances on your skin. At Tsi-La, we don’t use any phthalates in our creations. Never, ever. (FYI, if your fragrance lasts all day, it’s not natural, and is full of phthalates!)
Preservatives protect perfumes from damage caused by air or light, and prevent bacteria and fungus from growing in the bottles. The chemical preservatives in commercial fragrances can potentially cause your skin to become irritated, and are just plain not good for you. Tsi-La’s fragrances contain tocopherols (also known as vitamin-E), which is a natural preservative as well as a natural antioxidant that protects and repairs your skin.

Why we pay more for Natural and Organic beauty...

2011-11-22T09:30:00.003-05:00

From food to clothing to beauty products, everyone we know is going natural. While the all-natural aspect is admittedly enticing, though, we’re a bit put off by the hefty price tags. Is it worth the extra cost? When it comes to fragrance and cosmetics, the answer is yes - Going organic is often better for your skin because of the lack of dyes and artificial chemicals, which makes them less likely to clog your pores and cause acne or skin allergies. In addition, essential oils have an amazing and often profound direct beneficial effects on the skin and hair as well as producing beneficial psychological and psychosomatic effects via their influence on the nervous and hormonal systems. It is merely impossible to simulate the same benefits of natural products in using synthetic based chemicals of Brand X. So why do organic and natural beauty products cost significantly more than synthetically manufactured products?

The production of natural and organic raw materials is labor intensive and the demand is currently relatively small compared to the mainstream. Organic producers must go through a cost intensive process to achieve organic certification of their products. These three factors are the primary contributors to the basic gross costs of natural and organic products. Whereas synthetic based products are massively chemically produced at low margins for mere profit gain.

The cost of producing organic essential oils alone, significantly influence the ultimate price of natural and organic skin care and fragrance. Growing, harvesting, oil extraction, quality testing, market demand and availability of raw materials all play roles in this – For the most part, the amount of plant material required to produce a kilogram of essential oil can be huge. For example, it has been estimated that it takes about 500kg of rose petals to produce 1 liter of rose oil (and individual rose petals don’t weigh very much!). Climatic conditions have a major influence on organic raw material prices. For example, a bad season in which there is insufficient rainfall or the occurrence of natural disasters such as storms, hail, floods and fires, can affect the amount of plant material available for harvesting.

Once a producer has finalized a truly natural and organic product they must then go through a certification process to receive a USDA seal. This process is not only tedious and expensive, but is extremely difficult because the USDA cert is based on food grade standards; it is also one not many “natural” producers attempt because the certification standards do not allow for any synthetic ingredients. So are your products really natural and organic? – Look for the seal.

Tsi-La Organics proudly offer the USDA certified organic seal on our newest fragrance FIORI D’ARANCIO 50ml organic eau du parfum. The USDA organic seal ensures a product contains at least 95% organic materials, with remaining ingredients approved by the USDA. If a product reads “Made with Organic Ingredients”, the product should include a minimum of 70% organic ingredients. All of Tsi-La fragrances are made with a minimum of 80% organic ingredients, with the remaining ingredients all natural. We are diligently working on certifying each of our products to ensure all our fragrances to be free of harmful ingredients and are committed to using only 100% natural and organic certified ingredients.

Tsi-La Organics offer products for people, not for profits.

Natural Perfume: Why It doesn't last long...

2011-11-21T11:33:00.005-05:00

The number one complaint about natural perfumes is: why don’t they last longer? Natural perfumes, made with non-synthetic living flower extracts and plant botanicals, do not contain phthalates, parabens, or petroleum.

Phthalates are plasticizers used to soften vinyl plastic. They are added to synthetic fragrance to help extend the scent. Besides being hard to pronounce, phthalates are also suspected carcinogens and hormone disrupters. The amount of phthalates we are exposed to on a daily basis is staggering; from soft vinyl toys, food packaging, industrial lubricants, flooring, carpeting, and every commercial product that contains fragrance like dishwasher detergent and shampoo.

Then we have the parabens, a class of chemicals used as preservatives. Parabens are also suspected endocrine disruptors. Synthetic perfumes require a preservative to prevent rancidity. Tsi-La Organic fragrances include natural preservatives such as natural Vitamin-E.

In addition to the phthalates, 95% of chemicals used in fragrances are synthetic derivatives of petroleum, including toxins known to cause many health risks and allergies. The perfume industry is self-regulating, meaning perfume manufacturers are not required to provide formulations or safety information to the FDA.

With so much icky stuff in synthetic perfumes, a better question to ask is why one would continue to use them on one's skin? Natural perfumes don't last as long as synthetics precisely because they don't have these chemicals. Tsi-la natural and organic perfumes are the essence of nature - a marriage of organic freshness and pure plant botanicals. In using natural perfume you have the opportunity to capture the true essence of fragrant florals, sweet fruits, exotic grasses, rare woods and aromatic spices. Natural perfumes offer holistic benefits, which can not be found in synthetic fragrances. If your fragrance lasts all day, it is NOT natural.

What we don't use: Synthetic Fragrance

2011-11-18T10:23:00.005-05:00

Synthetic Fragrances

Today, most fragrances are no longer made from natural substances, but are made from synthetic chemicals. Synthetic fragrances are commonly used in personal care products (perfume, soap, shampoo, shaving cream, lotion, face cream and deodorant) and can also be found in household products (laundry detergent, dish soap, cleaners, air fresheners etc.) We are constantly being exposed to synthetic fragrance-chemicals. The fragrance industry regularly uses more than 3,000 chemical ingredients to create perfumes and fragrances. About 95% of these ingredients are synthetic. There can be as many as 100 chemicals in a single fragrance. Synthetic fragrances are used because they are readily available and more affordable than pure natural essential oils and natural extracts.

Most adverse reactions to cosmetics and toiletries are caused by synthetic fragrance chemicals, which are known irritants and allergens. About 5% of us cannot tolerate synthetic fragrances, while up to 30% are sensitive in some way. Synthetic fragrances can aggravate asthma, cause headaches, and trigger allergic reactions Many of us have encountered synthetic fragrances that cause us to sneeze or give us violent coughing or even rashes and other skin irritations.

Tsi-La Organic fragrances are founded by women who are unable to wear traditional perfume due to allergies caused by synthetic fragrance. All Tsi-La perfumes that hold our seal DO NOT CONTAIN any synthetic fragrances - only the purest, natural and organic essential oils, plant botanicals and extracts. All of Tsi-La living flower perfumes are infused with ingredients that deliver healthful benefits.

What we don't use: Synthetic Colors

2011-11-14T11:22:00.004-05:00

Regardless of the actual percentages, it is quite clear that a lot of what we apply on our skin ends up in our bodies. So it makes good sense for us to pay attention to the ingredients that are in our skin care products. Choosing natural and organic ingredients immediately cuts out a lot of preservatives, synthetic fragrances and color compounds that are suspect to be harmful to us. You can be assured that with a certified natural or organic product, extra effort has been taken in the interest of health and cost-saving short cuts avoided.

Synthetic Colors
Synthetic color or FD&C colors are mostly derived from coal tar. Many have been banned from food by the FDA for various reasons: carcinogenicity, allergy inducing, general toxicity, etc - A number caused illnesses in children. A few of these colors have now been banned from cosmetic use.

What we leave out: Phthalates

2011-11-11T10:41:00.002-05:00

Many phthalates (pronounced thal-ates) interfere with hormones (especially testosterone), and have been shown to alter normal reproductive development. Using a synthetic fragrance can be dangerous for a multitude of reasons - shown to damage the liver, kidneys, lungs and reproductive systems, phthalates can be absorbed through the skin or inhaled. Phthalates, a plasticizing compound, is often used in synthetic fragrance - to extend the fragrances wear.

Tsi-La ensures all our products to be free of harmful ingredients, such as Phthalates, commonly found in traditional perfumery. We are committed to producing Green Luxury™ beauty; using only 100% natural and organic certified ingredients.

reviewed on June 18:
"If you are a citrus lover then this is the scent for you. It's crisp and robust and full of nose tingling citrus. I swear this is worn the best on a hot summer day -- the freshness of the citrus shines through and just makes me happy. This is also a very personal scent. It wears wonderfully on my skin but doesn't loom in a room before or after I arrive. I think it also changes throughout the day.. The first notes I detect are obviously the yummy citrus but then when it dries down and has a little time to settle the floral notes come out, they are like a light summer bouquet.. I love the fact that these are fragrance oils. There is no drying alcohol spritzing on your skin to dry it out -- this actually feels nourishing on.

I am telling you this is a perfect summery scent that smells great and wears wonderfully.. I can still smell the scent at the days end so it goes on and on with my busy days.. It's nice to take a moment, group and take a whiff, it takes me away.."
