This
is the first step towards true beauty. The focus is
placed on the inner beauty of a woman because that’s
where real loveliness begins. Cleansing the body of
contaminants from the foods consumed; the pollutants
in the environment and the stress of everyday life is
the very foundation of magnificence. Gem

helps to flush out all of the toxins and wastes that
contaminate the body. It hydrates your skin and will
give your complexion a healthy glow.
Visit
Whole Foods Market or any other health food stores
to purchase a “Polycarbonate Bottle.”
These are approved as refillable.
Purified or distilled water is preferred over spring
water.
If you’re having trouble with drinking the recommended
eight 8 oz. glasses daily, begin by toting a large
cup or bottle of water with you everywhere you go
and start off by taking sips. Before long your body
will begin to crave it, and this is one craving you
can give in to without guilt.
Esther
2:12, describes the arduous task of purification. This
process took 12 months to be completed. Esther spent
6 of those months being refined with oil of myrrh; the
other 6 months were spent using perfumes. In modern
times these methods are called Aromatherapy. Thanks
to the research of the French cosmetic chemist Rene-Maurice
Gattefosse, we have extensive evidence of the healing
properties of essential oils.
Purification
begins in the mind. Filter out negative thoughts, and
replace them with things that are true, honest, just,
pure, lovely and of a good report (Phil. 4:8). Transform
a bad self image by reminding yourself that you are
fearfully and wonderfully made. You are the apple of
God’s eye. Change your focus by setting your affections
on God and not on the temporal things of this world.
Inner beauty is far more valuable than what the eyes
can see.
Remember man looks on the outward appearance but God
looks at the heart.
