2023 has been an incredible year filled with anticipation, challenge and hard work followed by sadness, heartbreak, madness and tears. Now we are at the stage of resistance and resilience with anticipation and hope for a better future for all in our region.. because if we don’t hope we don’t persist and we must persist to exist.   Key words that sum up the year for Amina’s Natural Skincare: 1. Growth & Expansion: Building and construction work at factory’s with orders for new equipment and machinery for production. 2. Preserve & Observe: Nature appreciation protection & ..read more

It’s no surprise to see that more and more women are shifting to using organic skincare products.  The amount of synthetic chemicals and toxins found in most mainstream and non-natural skincare products are concerning.   Your skin is the largest organ in your body that absorbs approximately 60% of whatever you apply onto it. Once absorbed, these ingredients go directly into your bloodstream and then circulate throughout your body. Just think about all the harmful chemicals you, unknowingly, brought into your body.      At Amina’s Natural Skincare, our number one priori ..read more

Breast cancer awareness campaign isn’t only a monthly campaign; it’s a life-changing – and life-saving – action that encourages and supports women to get tested for breast cancer. Being the second most common cancer among women and the second cause of death after lung cancer, breast cancer is a disease that can be treated and beaten once detected early.   What is Breast Cancer?  Just like other cancers, breast cancer develops after unusual cell mutations grow out of control. Usually, breast cancer can begin in the lobular carcinoma; the glands that produce breast milk, or in the duct ..read more

Celebrating Earth Day every day of the year by changing perspectives and mindsets. We can all make a difference, no matter where we may be on this Earth. I live in Jordan, a country covered mostly by desert and a very small strip of greenery. A country with scarce water sources, little rainfall and only a few small rivers… “I do not allow myself to be overcome by hopelessness no matter how tough the situation” - Vandana Shiva I fully agree with this statement because when we all do something, no matter how small it may seem, it will make a difference. Not only to the environment but also to o ..read more

Unique pieces from Jordan’s geological past. To allow us to dream about eras gone by and the magic of creation. A meteorite hit Jordan in the Eastern Desert area some time less than 35 million years ago! It is the youngest in the Middle East… It was 100 meters in diameter and it impacted at a shallow angle of trajectory. The impact this crater left has a somewhat oval shape of 6km wide. The impact baked and melted rocks, dramatically changing the composition of the flint layers and carbonate concretions as they rapidly heated up during the impact. The concretions were baked from the outside ..read more

A New Year and a New Me? No, New Year, Know Me. I would prefer a new year and the discovery of the true me, to know me... that which makes me, me. Not me defined as a woman, daughter, sister, friend, wife and mother. What makes me me? I would like to allow myself to meet me, my inner me so I may be kind and accepting of me like meeting a kind friend. Without judgement without guilt and regret... that’s possible through slowing down, breathing, observation, meditation and listening. Reflect on what is and what you would like to change with compassion and friendliness. Become the observer of you ..read more

Wherever we are at the moment, whatever our lives usually entail, this time all across the world it is a very similar time for all of us. Our lives may feel fragile, on hold and some of us may feel very concerned about the health of our loved ones and ourselves. The thought of being the cause of anyone becoming ill frightens us. We want to protect and shelter those that we love. I think the fact that we are all experiencing the same feelings and needs across the globe is quite powerful indeed. It is a shared experience, but it does not make it any easier for us individually. The days of self ..read more

It is a little known fact that a product may boast all the qualities of organic, it may even tick all the right boxes and to the naked eye may be 100 percent “organic,” but in this day and age you need to look for a product with heart, one that embraces the very spirit of what it means to be truly organic. We believe that to be organic certified is one thing, however to have an “organic ethos” goes beyond the conventional realms of certification. It is a policy that encompasses our way of work and living. It is at the heart of everything that we do. From land sustainability to water conserv ..read more

I still remember the day when everything fell into place and the Amina Skincare line was born. And it still makes me smile when I think of how far we’ve come… A little over a decade ago I recall my first encounter with baby eczema. My daughter was struggling with itchiness, redness and dry skin. My attempts to find a soap to soothe her were unsuccessful. Those who know me know I am an avid reader, and it was at that time that I stumbled upon a gem of a read called, “Cleaning Yourself to Death: How safe is your home?” by Pat Thomas. The revelations were both eye-opening and heartbreaking. Until ..read more
