I like the video approach, and will use this as guidance in picking out some new products for my wife.
thank you.
May 19th, 2008 at 7:21 am
Great coverage! I love the product lines you carry, and explanations help me decide which will work best for my skin!
May 29th, 2008 at 7:56 am
I love the Zia products, great to see them in your stores.
May 29th, 2008 at 7:56 am
I watched this video and just went and purchased my first ever CoQ10. I love it, thanks for the great products and great videocast.
May 29th, 2008 at 7:58 am
Good points. I forget that season changes can effect skin conditions and products.
May 29th, 2008 at 1:13 pm
A friend just shared this with me, I’m excited to watch some of your past coverage. I LOVE the stores.
May 29th, 2008 at 1:14 pm
Great to see such lively action in the store. I like the information on video more then just the audio podcasts.
May 29th, 2008 at 1:16 pm
New look, I like this video. All to often I wonder if I’m choosing good products for my skin type.
June 9th, 2008 at 8:14 am
Great stuff. I’m new here, and love all the great coverage. Long time fan of the store, new fan of the blogs/podcasts.
June 9th, 2008 at 11:01 am
Great stuff, the video is nice. I look forward to trying some of these products for my dry skin. Keep it up.
June 10th, 2008 at 4:02 pm
I’ve always heard that just plain water is the best facial cleanser. Maybe this doesn’t work for oily skin? For me, I hold a hot wash cloth on my face to open the pores, then I place a cold water wash cloth on my face to close the pores. This has worked well for years.
June 11th, 2008 at 11:40 am
I applaud your commitment to natural remedies and lifestyles!
June 11th, 2008 at 2:40 pm
There is allot of great information in this video, I found it going by quickly however. Is there a printable version of the highlights and products one should use for each skin type?
It would really help I think to have a list I could print out and take to the store, so I can set up the best system for my face.
Does this ring true for anyone else?

@Mama Z Hello, Winnie from Whole Foods here. We don’t currently have a brochure that highlights the specific treatments for each skin type – but it’s definitely something we can work on. In the meanwhile, if you go to your local store and speak with a Whole Body associate, they should be able to help you pick out the right products for your needs. Also, there’s a downloadable PDF of some spa tips on the Whole Body site:

You’ve done it again. I actually started using your mineral fusion when I bought the starter kit, good stuff + it seems to have resolved my skin troubles. If I don’t use mineral makeup I general don’t use anything, just water, and have found that less is more. Products from before seemed to dry my skin out, but the mineral makeup and water do well.

This is fun! I like the “buttery” face application technique
June 13th, 2008 at 8:04 am
Love it!
June 13th, 2008 at 8:28 am
Good to see Whole Foods embracing technology. Great stores, now a great idea for the website.
June 13th, 2008 at 8:53 am
Agreed, the spa booklet is wonderful. Winnie are there booklets for any of the other podcasts?
June 13th, 2008 at 10:06 am
@Marcy Right here!

Wonderful video coverage of a topic which may seem simple but really is not. I also checked out the brochure which is very helpful, and lovely!
June 13th, 2008 at 3:51 pm
Love the vid. Skin can be so troubling, what’s more is trying something expensive only to find it isn’t working! I hope this advice helpsme narrow the search.
June 13th, 2008 at 4:21 pm
Good work here. I am a huge Fan of some fo the skin care products you carry, and have trouble finding Zia elsewhere. Keep it up.
June 13th, 2008 at 4:26 pm
First time I’ve seen a video like this. Very hip! Please keep it coming.
June 13th, 2008 at 6:30 pm
Great video. I like this format as well!
June 15th, 2008 at 11:14 am
Excellent!
June 16th, 2008 at 7:54 am
I’m looking forward to trying some of these products. I have dry dry dry skin this time of year. I’ll write back and let you know what I think.
June 16th, 2008 at 7:59 am
Lovely! I really appreciate your dedication to natural products as well now, as the resource for how to best integrate these products into daily life. Keep it up, and I’ll see you at the store
June 18th, 2008 at 8:04 am
Great video and fantastic support materials.
June 19th, 2008 at 1:13 pm
I shared this with a friend and they were very impressed with the coverage. Thanks again, I’m looking forward to more.
June 20th, 2008 at 11:20 am
Very nice video!
July 5th, 2008 at 7:52 am
Wonderful vid, thanks!!!
July 7th, 2008 at 2:06 pm
Good coverage, however, it would have been nice to see how combination skin such as mine should be treated.
April 6th, 2009 at 1:28 pm
Wonderful post and blog. I stumbled on your site purely by chance and I’m really happy I did. Will be adding you to my favorites to visit again
June 24th, 2009 at 8:10 pm
I am very curios to know about what percentage of ingredients are organic for any of the skincare lines displayed in this sample video. As we approach aging with a healthy attitude, we also want to look & feel our best.
My skin is pretty normal I guess except for occasional T-zone breakouts, slight crows feet & some sun spots. I live in South FL so there is often high humidity and daily sun exposure. Are there any products with anti-aging qualities that are conducive to this climate without feeling heavy or clumped on the skin? Where could I get some coupons to try some new products or what about travel sizes?
Thanx A Bunch
November 28th, 2009 at 10:14 pm
I was wondering if you sold any skin care products for xanthelasma treatments?

This is really a great video, I believe that natural facial care is really a good way to take care of you facial skin. Thanks for sharing.
April 11th, 2011 at 1:21 am
I was mistaken in believing all Whole Foods carry the same products. While on a trip to Los Angeles, I found a wonderful line of green tea products and decided I would wait to purchase when I returned home. Alas! My whole foods store doesn’t carry anything even near to what I saw/wanted in LA. What is my recourse?? I left my name/phone with a whole foods associate who said the rep would call IF she had something in a line with green tea. Unfortunately, I can’t recall the product name but remember a light green label with a leaf on it – not a big help.
May 29th, 2011 at 7:41 pm
Great video!! I’m a huge fan of natural products and homemade skincare remedies. I learned a lot. Thanks!
