New York, NY (PRWEB) March 30, 2004 --- Florestas®, one of Brazils leading manufacturers and marketers of sustainable botanical beauty products, is introducing its Amazonas" line of natural health, skin care and bath products made from exotic Brazilian whole ingredients today at EX•TRACTS 2004 in New York. EX•TRACTS is the industrys leading trade show for the aromatherapy, fragrance, and personal care marketplace.

Long established in Brazil, Florestas Amazonas line features a complete selection of skin care, bath and aromatherapy products derived from plants and nuts wild-harvested and collected by local communities in the Amazon. These natural ingredients are found exclusively in the rain forest, and their properties have been used by native Indians for centuries as antidotes for numerous ailments.

Our belief is that nature can provide all that humans need," said Lima, president of Florestas. We have searched the biodiversity of the Brazilian rain forest and studied indigenous Amazonian therapeutics in our quest to create the finest and most healthful natural alternatives to harsh, chemically derived personal care products. Our products are state-of-the art formulations that contain significant concentrations of therapeutic elements that deliver superior results."

The rainforest seeds used in Florestas products contain unique oils that bring a more effective solution for hair and skin care. Brazilian oil seeds like andiroba and Brazil nuts are rich in fatty acids, vital to maintaining the integrity of skin. The lipids present in the oil also act to hydrate and moisturize the skin by maintaining emolliency and the integrity of the skins cutaneous barrier.

Brazilian fruits used in Florestas products -- acai, cupuacu and acerola -- are packed with high concentrations of vitamins and minerals. Each fruit provides its own amazing aroma and nutritional attributes and these succulent fruits also provide unparalleled anti-oxidant properties.

During the collection of our raw materials, Florestas ensures that the Brazilian ecosystem is preserved and the seeds and herbs used to prepare our products are kept at the purest level. As local legend tells, each fruit or seed was presented by God at critical times and used for multiple applications vital to the existence of indigenous tribes in the rainforest.

It is our commitment to use native plants and seed ingredients whenever possible in our formulations," said Lima. Plants used in our Amazonas product line are wild-harvested in a non-intrusive manner by local communities and the seeds that are collected have fallen naturally from the rain forests trees. We help ensure the preservation of flora in Brazilian rainforests by working only with certified partners that committed to socially responsibility trade, support the native communities and respect our unique natural environment."
