It is said, The Astral Body (a field of energy) is the centre of emotion and that all of our feelings have been created here as vibrations of altering frequencies (rhythms).
So Maggie Mahboubian, in her infinite wisdom, created her Lalun Naturals ‘Astral Body‘ Skincare to nurture the skin and from the varying scents to call forth our inner most feelings which originate deep within our soul.
Incorporating age-old alchemy practices with a present-day understanding on how to create botanical essences, Maggie’s wild botanicals truly do nourish the skin, arouse the mind and captivate the soul as they did the same for our ancestors thousands of years ago.
ASTRAL BODY: METEORIC FACE WASH
What I love about Maggie’s Astral Body METEORIC Face Wash besides having a lovely liquorice scent is that I am able to use it as a cleanser alone, or wash my face with it straight after oil cleansing or just use it to moisturise my skin while it firms my skin at the same time.
Now the latter is good news for mature skin because as we get older our skin produces less elastin and collagen; both proteins, elastin enables our skin to stretch and bounce back just like elastic while collagen gives our skin its strength.
Of course, environmental factors and diet do play a role in how healthy our skin is. So if you need to get your face back into shape, you could address those issues while giving Astral Body METEORIC Face Wash a try. It is great to use as a make-up base.
As a face wash, I rubbed 5 squirts between the moistened palms of my hands before massaging my face and neck. The gentle foaming sensation felt amazing. Using a warm damp organic hemp cloth, I gently removed the METEORIC Face Wash then repeated. My face felt so smooth afterwards.
METEORIC FACE WASH INGREDIENTS:
**Sapindus mukorossi (Soapnut) Extract, Cydonia oblonga (Quince) Seed Extract, Ricinus communis (Castor) Oil, African Black Soap (Butyrospermum parkii Butter, Cocos nucifera Oil, Elaeis guineensis Kernel Oil, Theobroma cacao Pod Ash), Quillaja saponaria (Soapbark) Extract, **Glycyrrhiza glabra (Licorice) Root Extract, Cyamopsis Tetragonoloba (Guar) Gum, Illicium verum (Star Anise) Oil, Pimpinella anisum (Anise) Seed Oil, Cucumis sativus (Cucumber) Extract, Cedrus atlantica (Atlas Cedarwood) Oil, Vetiveria zizanoides (Vetiver) Root Oil, Activated Charcoal. **Certified Organic, *Organic or wildcrafted.
ASTRAL BODY: GOLDEN SUNDROPS
In her wisdom I can see why Maggie Mahboubian chose GOLDEN Sundrops to make her powerful antioxidant serum to search out those free radicals; all the while moisturising.
Sunflowers, St. John’s Wort, Safflowers and Helichrysums are stellar botanicals (plants) which Maggie chose for her Astral Body GOLDEN Sundrops blend to shield and nourish (feed) the skin.
After cleansing my face with Astral Body Meteoric Face Wash, I rubbed a few drops of GOLDEN Sundrops between the palms of my hands before gently patting the serum onto my face and neck. The smell of its lemony scent is very appealing.
My skin absorbed the oils in no time and my face glowed; as if I’d been kissed by the sun’s rays.
GOLDEN SUNDROPS INGREDIENTS:
**Helianthus annuus (Sunflower) Oil, *Hypericum perforatum (St. John’s Wort) infused Carthamus tinctorius (Safflower) Oil, Rubus idaeus (Raspberry) Seed Oil, Daucus carota (Carrot) Seed Oil, Persea americana (Avocado) Oil, Hippophae rhamnoides (Sea Buckthorn) Berry Oil, **Nigella sativa (Black Cumin) Seed Oil, **Non-GMO Lecithin, Non-GMO Tocopherols, **Rubus idaeus (Raspberry) Seed Extract, Daucus carota (Carrot) Seed Extract, Hippophae rhamnoides (Sea Buckthorn) Berry Extract, **Rosemarinus officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Extract, Citrus limon (Lemon) Essence, Citrus sinensis (Orange) Oil, **Daucus carota (Carrot) Seed Essential Oil, *Commifera myrrha (Myrrh) Extract, **Helichrysum italicum (Helichrysum) Extract.
ASTRAL BODY: SILVER MOONDROPS
Frankincense Extract and Sandalwood Seed Oil in SILVER Moondrops act against inflammation of the skin while the vitamin rich oils in this blend aids in maintaining skin hydration.
The unique scent of Astral Body Silver Moondrops is indescribable but I love it.
After cleansing and toning my face in the evening with LALUN NATURALS WINTER ROSE Cleanser + Toner, I applied SILVER Moondrops by patting 2 drops on my face.
It’s been a few months since then and I’ve depleted my supply of Winter ROSE CLEANSER + Toner. I’ve now been using METEORIC Face Wash prior to applying SILVER Moondrops.
With its mix of helpful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory oils, SILVER Moondrops definitely soothed my skin and my face felt hydrated the following morning.
SILVER MOONDROPS INGREDIENTS:
**Camellia sinensis (Green Tea) infused Carthamus tinctorius (Safflower) Oil, *Boswellia rivae (Frankincense) Extract infused Carthamus tinctorius (Safflower) Oil, Argania spinosa (Argan) Nut Oil, Limnathes alba (Meadowfoam) Seed Oil, Santalum spicatum (Sandalwood) Seed Oil, Ribes nigrum (Blackcurrant) Seed Oil, Camellia oleifera (Camellia) Seed Oil, Vaccinium macrocarpon (Cranberry) Seed Oil, Squalane (Olive), **Calophyllum inophyllum (Tamanu) Oil, **Non-GMO Lecithin, Non-GMO Tocopherols, **Calendula officinalis (Calendula) Extract, **Rosemarinus officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Extract, Santalum spicatum (Sandalwood) Oil, *Boswellia rivae (Frankincense) Oil, **Citrus aurantium (Neroli) Oil, **Rosa damascena (Rose) Extract, **Lavandula angustifolia (Lavender) Oil.
ASTRAL BODY: MOON Butter
Tropical buttery cacao, delicate essential oils and plant extracts from nature have all been whipped together to produce Astral Body MOON Butter; a moisturising salve (balm) enriched with nutrients.
It’s an absolute favourite of mine for moisturising my face and lips. Once MOON Butter comes in contact with the skin it absorbs well.
I’m extremely happy with how my facial skin feels when I use METEORIC Face Wash, then while my face is still damp I apply MOON Butter. My lips too feel so soft and supple.
The scent of MOON Butter is ‘blooming’ good. When I take a whiff I can smell a mild chocolate aroma from the cacao butter but I too can sniff out the captivating aromatic sweet floral fragrance due to the *Tuberose Absolute.
*Tuberose is a flower which only blooms at night.
Furthermore, Tuberose essential oil is said to have powerful anti-inflammatory properties.
MOON BUTTER INGREDIENTS:
**Butyrospermum parkii (Shea) Fruit Butter, Theobroma cacao (Cocoa) Butter, *Theobroma grandiflorum (Cacao) Butter, Mangifera indica (Mango) Butter, *Calendula officinalis (Calendula infused) Safflower Oil, *Cera alba (Beeswax), *Daucus carota (Wild carrot infused) Safflower Oil, *Trifolium pratense (Wild Red Clover infused) Safflower Oil, Polianthes tuberosa (Tuberose) Wax, **Attalea speciosa (Babassu) Oil, **Passiflora edulis (Maracuja) Oil, **Elaeis guineensis (Ghanan Red Palm) Oil, **Bertholletia excelsa (Castanha) Oil, **Calophyllum inophyllum (Tamanu) Oil, **Mauritia flexuosa (Buriti) Fruit Oil, **Caryocar brazilliensis (Pequi) Fruit Oil, Hippophae rhamnoides (Seabuckthorn) Fruit Oil, Tocopherols (Vitamin E) GMO free, **Rosemarinus officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Extract, **Essential Oil Blend (Coffee Oil, Espresso Distillate, Cocoa Essence, Cistus EO, Vanillin Natural Isolate, Coffee Flower Absolute, Butter CO2, Mimosa Absolute, Orange Flower Absolute, Tuberose Absolute).

ASTRAL BODY: VENUS VEIL DEODORANT
Apparently, Maggie Mahboubian was told by her husband and male customers that VENUS VEIL Deodorant survives the gym.
Now, for a light and refreshing deodorant as it is, that was a very strong statement indeed.
I needed to find out more, so I scanned over the ingredients list.
To my surprise, I found that among other ingredients, Maggie’s deodorant contained Rose Geranium Oil, Basil Oil and Cyperus Scariosus (Nagarmotha) Oil.
Rose Geranium deters ticks, Basil deters flies and Cyperus Scariosus (Nagarmotha) kills intestinal worms and helps to eliminate toxic substances from the body through sweat and urine.
Ticks are a huge issue where I live, so I was very eager to try Astral Body VENUS VEIL Deodorant. It was essential for me to envelope my body with its mist; including under my armpits.
Shrouded with love, the light woody earthy lemony herbaceous scent of VENUS VEIL Deodorant is unisex. I was very drawn to its aroma and so glad that pesky insects aren’t.
VENUS VEIL DEODORANT INGREDIENTS:
Grain Alcohol, Rosa damascena (Rose) Water, **Aloe barbadensis Leaf (Aloe Vera) Juice, Glycerine, Celtic Sea Salt, *Rosa damascena (Rose) Oil, Pelargonium graveolens (Rose Geranium) Oil, **Cyperus scariosus (Nagarmotha) Oil, Ocimum basilicum (Basil) Oil, Phenyl Ethyl Alcohol natural. **Certified Organic, *Organic or wildcrafted.
ASTRAL BODY: SKYBLUE BEARD OIL
You don’t need to grow a beard to try SKYBLUE Beard Oil.
Ladies too can use this oil as a lubricate during and after shaving.
Skyblue Beard Oil soothes and encourages healing to grazed or chafed skin.
Now most people itch not long after they shave. Well, the good news is that Astral Body SKYBLUE Beard Oil minimises itchiness.
After washing and conditioning my hair, I applied half a dropper of SKYBLUE Beard Oil on my damp hair a few minutes before rinsing it out.
Another method is to leave SKYBLUE Beard Oil in the hair before washing it out. Either way works well.
The refreshingly light aroma of Astral Body SKYBLUE Beard Oil brought back memories of a time when I smelled forest scent while riding a moped in Colorado, USA. It’s a lovely fragrance and one that I could easily wear as a perfume.
SKYBLUE BEARD OIL INGREDIENTS:
**Cocos nucifera (Virgin Coconut) Oil, Camellia oleifera (Camellia) Seed Oil, Limnathes alba (Meadowfoam) Seed Oil, Argania spinosa (Argan) Nut Oil, Tocopherols GMO free, Callitris intratropica (Australian Blue Cyprus) Oil, Juniperus virginiana (Virginia Cedarwood) Oil, *Achillea millefolium (Blue Yarrow) Oil, *Chrysopogon zizanioides (Vetiver Bourbon) Oil, Lavandula angustifolia (Lavender) Oil, Matricaria recutita (Chamomile Blue) Oil
**Certified Organic. *Organic or wildcrafted
