What’s New in Health & Beauty?
About Our Health & Beauty Department
Harmony Coop’s Health and Beauty Care Department will find products for your personal use from head to toe. We have soaps, lotions, bath salts, deodorants, facial care, cosmetics, feminine hygiene, intimate care, hair care, oral care, products especially for babies and children, and essential oils.
We are fortunate to have local companies whose products we carry such as Wyndmere, Zellers, and Stepping Stone Soaps. We support other coops and small independent companies such as Alaffia, Badger, Aubrey Organics, Wiseways and HoneyGirl Organics.
Because skin absorbs 60% of what is put on it, it is important that the products used are of good quality and healthful for the skin and body. We strive to provide the best products available while maintaining our commitment to do no harm to others or the environment. Accordingly, all product ingredient lists are rigorously checked. Also, as far as is possible, all products are tested before making them available to you, the customer, to make sure the product works and causes no harmful reactions.
If you do not find a product that you would like to have, We would be happy to Special Order it for you if possible. Your feedback is welcome on products that we carry and we love to learn about new products that you can tell us about.
On October 28th the membership gathered at the United Methodist Church meeting room. Harmony’s staff prepared a fantastic tex mex dinner for our owners and it was a wonderful chance to see familiar faces and a few new faces as well. Board treasurer Mary Overlie led a great discussion on ways Harmony could strengthen the community’s connection to local and organic foods prior to the start of the official meeting. The question is also posted to Harmony’s Facebook page so if you have some ideas head over to FB and post on our wall.
Harmony’s Frozen Department received quite a boost from the expansion. The new freezer units are beautiful, huge and easy to use. It was even easier to fill them up with all of our already popular staples and the great suggestions from our very involved shoppers!
