Holiday relaxing with Badger

- DJ Montano -
The Badger story is one that’s short and simple. About a dozen years ago, carpenter Bill had cracked fingers from the harsh New England winter. He also loved working with herbs and natural remedies. This turned out to be a fortunate coincidence for carpenter Bill. He mixed up a batch of herbs into what eventually became Badger Healing Balm. His fingers healed and the W.S. Badger Company was born – one of the most successful all-natural personal care product companies alive today. Badger is famous for its fine balms, potions and natural remedies.

The holidays can be extremely stressful! All that Christmas shopping can tangle up your muscles into major knots. Running the mall-athon can cause gross hobbit-like feet. Carrying those shopping bags and wrapping all those gifts can wear and tear down your fingers like carpenter Bill’s. Hosing down those drinks at those endless Christmas parties can bring about many sleepless nights and bring you closer to Santa’s age group. It’s during these times that you need all the help that you can get. It’s time to alarm the relaxing and healing brigade. For great stuff, Badger hits the spot!
Dry Lips/Skin
These months, the chillier evenings and all that freezing mall air-conditioning can really dry out your skin. It’s very smart to keep a nice lip balm to keep lips tender and moist. At Badger, variety rules. They have 49 lip and body balm varieties ranging from the classic lavender and orange to the citrus-y tangerine breeze. Great stuff comes from great ingredients – most of the balm is made from organic extra virgin olive oil, golden yellow beeswax and pure castor oil sourced from all over the world.
Trouble Sleeping?
Major holiday partying is almost always equated with major food and drink bingeing. This can cause you many nights of sheep-counting. Lighting up a lavender candle or drinking some chamomile tea is always helpful in ushering in the zzzs. You can also try Badger’s Sleep Balm, made from the oils of ginger, rosemary, bergamot, balsam fir and lavender, all known to effectively bring about sleep. Just rub a little on the lips, temples, back of the neck or pulse points of wrists and you’re off to la-la-lullaby land.
Body Aches?
A friend of mine has likened the holiday shopping rush to a triathlon. First, there’s the stress of getting to the malls with all the snarling traffic. Second, there’s combing through the aisles and shelves for the right gifts and queuing up on the long lines to pay for them. Finally, there’s the hauling of the bags and packages back home to be gift-wrapped. It can be seriously daunting and often takes its toll on your body. De-stress and detox by taking trips to the spa or booking that home service massage. You can also ask a friend or lover for some good rubbing. It makes good sense to purchase the right massage oils and rubs. Badger’s got terrific stuff. Its Sore Muscle Rub is a great pain-relieving balm with the natural anti-inflammatory properties of cayenne and ginger. The Foot Balm is a wonderful remedy for tired, rough and weary feet. It contains peppermint that cools and refreshes and rosemary that revives and relaxes by promoting circulation. Badger’s Massage and Body Oils are made from an ancient Badger family formula. It’s got a great scent and a silky feel, perfect for deep muscle therapy and relaxation.
Wrinkles?
No one wants to look like a Scrooge during the holidays. In looking for great anti-aging products, it makes sense to get those that use natural ingredients. Badger’s Evolving Body Balm is a naturally restorative, romantically-fragranced healing balm for your precious skin. You can use it as an under-eye cream or as a refreshing night facial.

Using badger products is also charitable. The company has made it their mission to donate seven percent of their profits to non-profit organizations that focus on the healthcare and welfare of children.

Badger products are exclusively available at Rustan’s Essenses.
