At the age of thirty-three, in 2009, Sylvie Hewett received her liver cancer diagnosis with an extra dose of skin and bowel cancer. The growth was invasive and there were not laparoscopy equipment available, so she underwent open abdominal surgery where she received her “branding mark” from the large L-shaped incision.
With her motto in life: “There is always light at the end of a dark, long tunnel.” She saw this L-shaped scar as her Learners license on life. She started to ask why, how and when.
Although she was fired up mentally, she was physically sick and weak. She packed her bags and flew to Bison and Longhorn country in Texas. She met doctor Elizabeth Lee Vliet, who broadened her knowledge in the Natraceutical and Natural healing arena.
She realised that your body needed bio-available nutrition, but so does the skin, as at least 60% of 400 to 600 toxins in common skincare items are absorbed into the bloodstream daily. It includes soap to make-up, body lotions, perfumes, washing powders and much more. She learnt that biologically the body craves certain elements to return to homeostasis, the state of balance and harmony. She included studies on how our forefathers cared for their skins.
A whole new world opened where ancient traditions collided with modern research. She started following a primal lifestyle and diet in Bison country, where she tried Voortrekker/Pioneer skin care recipes.
It was love at first feel and her thirsty skin soaked up all the goodness as if it was just a natural part of it.
Sylvie was astounded to see the magical harmony between our skins and the golden whipped Certified Free Range (FR) and Grass Fed (GF) rendered animal fat, or tallow. As we are not plants, but more similar to a pastured animal, the skin anatomy is biologically so closely related that our skin sees GF, FR tallow as its own – with the same fat soluble Vitamin and Mineral profile your skin naturally produces and craves in order to heal and promote longevity.
She then knew that she would follow these guidelines in creating her Pure Primal skin food regime.
“Water and oil do not mix unless emulsifiers and preservatives are added. We absorb and therefore “eat” our skincare ingredients, and I wanted to have a 100% edible skincare and eco-home regime. I always say: If you cannot put it into your mouth, it should not go onto your skin.”
The fact that water evaporates and dehydrates the skin when applied topically added to her adamant decision to create a luxuriously concentrated product that lasts and lasts. She states that our skin craves something biologically identical to what it naturally consists of in a healthy state. We absorb most skincare ingredients within a few seconds. So simply put – your skincare should be Food for your SKIN.
We recycle and re-use almost everything. Our used teabags and organic coffee grinds go into exfoliation soaps. Free range, baked egg shells go into our Pot scrub Boerseep bars. In keeping with this we support local sustainable farmers who take the time to farm “harder” but better so they can offer us truly FR and GF reared protein. Then there is the “discarded waste” – the star of the show, the FAT that we so dearly treasure and gather from an amazingly passionate and knowledgeable butcher.
