Cow Fart Juice is a gentle, enjoyable, aromatic way to nurture from the outside so that true beauty can occur from the inside. For some who have struggled with their skin, it can seem like a miracle. But Cow Fart Juice isn’t a drug and is not meant to be used like a drug. Yes, you may find immediate relief when you decant a few drops from the little brown bottle with the cow on the front and apply it directly to the area that is bothering you, but there is so much more you can be doing help yourself.
Understanding Acute and Chronic Conditions
A chronic situation is one that has been occurring over time. We holistic practitioners tend to think of them as “dysfunctional feedback loops,” where things just keep going wrong and the body just doesn’t have a chance to heal. No topical application can fix an underlying problem — that’s where nourishment and understanding how your body works come in.
Body
Consider the Instant Alchemy Mineral Mist. It has a high concentration of minerals (particularly magnesium), and although it may tingle, it gets the minerals right where you need them. Drip 3 drops of Cow Fart Juice into the palm of your hand, and spray 5 pumps of the Mineral Mist directly into the Cow Fart Juice in your hand. Apply to the area. If you have a large area to cover, repeat the process with the same number of drops and sprays (3 drops + 5 sprays).
Face
For the face, use one of the Mineral Mists from our Functional Skincare line. In the case of redness, you may want to choose Sense & Sensitivity Mineral Mist, or Integrity Mineral Mist if you are left with marks. Choose Pore Refining Mineral Mist if your skin appears lifeless and dull. And if you are using Cow Fart Juice to clarify, consider the Clear Complexion Mineral Mist. Don’t fret if you don’t know which one is “best,” as they will all work to deliver the key nutrients to your skin. Choose the one that most appeals to you, or get them all and rotate between them, choosing the one that most appeals to you in the moment.
Again, drip 3 drops of Cow Fart Juice into the palm of your hand, and spray 5 pumps of the Mineral Mist directly into the Cow Fart Juice in your hand. Apply to the area. If you have a large area to cover, or if it soaks in immediately and you still feel a bit dry, repeat the process with the same number of drops and sprays (3 drops + 5 sprays).

Family Recipes
Cow Fart Juice’s recipe is based on an old family herbal remedy that I (Emma) learned from my elders. It was used during childbirth and has a place at every phase of a person’s life. It’s important for us to pass along the wisdom of the past for use in the future.
- If you do not have one of our Mineral Mists, use a good mineral water instead.
- Pour mineral water into a small, clean spray bottle, and spray directly into the Cow Fart Juice as described above. (A good ratio is 3 drops + 5 to 6 sprays.)
- Keep in the refrigerator for up to one week, and then discard the water, refilling with fresh mineral water for the next week.
- Do not use a rosewater or a hydrosol in place of this, as they are distilled and devoid of any minerals.
