Natural Beauty Inside Out
Many women, including myself, are concerned with using natural or organic sunblock thinking that it may not provide adequate coverage. Looks like we need to correct this thought.
I recently bought JASON Natural Sunbrellas Mineral Based Physical Sunblock SPF30+
In simple terms, it means I get sufficient coverage using this sunblock and it’s absolutely safe for my skin. YAY!
Why organic products has to smell so awful I really don’t understand. While I enjoy using JASON range of pure, natural and organic products, this new one that I’m currently trying, JASON Red Elements Hydrating Lotion Cleanser, is a big turn off in terms of the smell.
This product is fragrance free. So whatever smell I’ve experienced is from the natural ingredients. I have no idea if the red tea and peptides which is supposed to help fight the signs of aging created that pungence but it’s truly not great if you’ve a sensitive olfaction like me. I really wish it smells better or comes with no scent at all.
I’m on a mission to go au naturale and am slowly converting my skincare range to those of organic formulations. However, it’s kind of hard to try new products without considering the cost issue since I don’t know if they’ll work well for my skin type.
So I was pleasantly surprised to learn that Stem Organics is offering a sample kit comprising seven items; Gentle Cleansing Milk, Fresh Start Serum, Balancing Face Fluid, Exquisite Face Fluid, Hydrating Face Fluid, Smooth Skin Exfoliant and Intensive Eye Serum. All for US$13.90, with complimentary shipping.
I heard about rose hip oil from a friend two years ago but didn’t have a chance to find out more or try out related products. The closest I got to was drinking rose hip tea. Recently my interest in this oil was renewed again after I came across many women raving about it in the beauty forums.
Rose hip oil or rose hip seed oil is extracted from the seeds of a rose bush that grows wild in Chile and South Africa. The pressed oil of the rose hip seed, often called rosa mosqueta by the natives, is light textured and reddish golden brown in color.
