BR Naturals

BR Naturals is a totally new brand to me and they were nice enough to send me a few of their lovely products.  I am trying to go "all natural" as much as possible.  Not just with my skincare and hair care but with household products as well.  BR Naturals offers a nice mixture of body care products, essential oils, carrier oils and even things like Avocado Oil and Olive Oil.

Based out of Canada their products are all natural, handmade and you can really tell that a lot of love and care goes into their products.

While I have really enjoyed everything they sent me my favorite items are the Lemongrass Lotion Bar, Coconut Lip Balm and their Natural Soaps.  They are super amazing and something that I will be re-purchasing.

 Lemongrass Lotion Bar

This Lemongrass Lotion Bar smells wonderful, makes my skin feel soft and hydrated while doubling as an insect repellent.  This will be my go-to lotion this spring & summer.  Not only will my skin feel nice and soft but the Lemongrass Oil will keep the bugs away.  I love to hike and that means ticks & mosquito's where I live.  It comes in a nice, convenient tin which is perfect to just throw it in my backpack!  LOVE!
I also highly recommend using this after shaving and right after you get of of the shower or bath.  I like to put on a fairly thick layer right before bed as well.

Made with all natural Coconut Oil, Beeswax, Mango Butter, Shea Butter, Sweet Almond Oil, Lemongrass Oil and Vitamin E.

Retails for $11.99 for 3.1oz.

Coconut Lip Balm

Little known fact...I'm a bit of a Lip Balm junkie.  It's ridiculous how many things of Lip Balm I have but I use them all and I am always on the hunt for something new.  This Coconut Lip Balm became a fast favorite.  

It smells just like you would want a Coconut Lip Balm to smell like...a tropical vacation!  Made with all natural Shea Butter, Mango Butter, Argan Oil, Babassu, Vitamin E and Coconut Extract among other ingredients it nourishes my dry lips for hours and it even tastes good!

Retails for $5.00 for .17oz.

Lemongrass Body Wash

This is a great precursor to the Lemongrass Lotion Bar!  This Lemongrass Body Wash is a simply body wash that smells amazing and is made with all natural Olive, Avocado, Coconut, Palm Kernel Oil, and Apricot Kernel Oil.  It cleans very effectively without stripping and dehydrating the skin.  Plus, the Lemongrass scent is something the whole family will enjoy.

Retails for $13.99 for 8.4 oz.

Lavender Essential Oil

What's not to love about Lavender Oil?  This is a excellent quality Lavender Oil that smells amazing.  Their are literally dozens of uses for Lavender Oil and I use mine in several different ways.
I love putting a few drops in my diffuser, especially in the evening.  I also like to add a few drops to my bath water to help soothe away the stress of the day.  I even apply it to my temples when I feel a headache coming on and it works like a charm.  However, I mostly use it to scent my wool dryer balls for my laundry.  I don't use fabric softener because it's toxic so I use wool dryer balls instead and you can add a few drops of essential oil to give your laundry a nice, fresh scent just like fabric softener but without all the toxic chemicals!
Retails for $11.99 for 1.7oz.

Lavender Flowers Soap Bar

I love a a good all natural soap.  There is just something about the way it smells and the way it leaves your skin feeling soft and clean.  I also prefer to use a bar of soap for shaving and the Lavender Flowers Soap Bar and their Peppermint Leaf Soap Bar are both exfoliating soaps which helps exfoliate dead skin cells and will leave it feeling soft and smooth.  

I just LOVE a good exfoliating soap and these are amazing!  They not only smell amazing but you can feel the exfoliating bits in the soap gently exfoliating your skin, almost like a light massage.  I love that feeling!

Their soaps are made with premium ingredients like Avocado Oil, Coconut Oil, Palm Kernel Oil, Palm Oil, Canola Oil, Castor Oil, Sunflower Oil and Hempseed Oil which is what makes them so luxurious and great for the skin.  If you love the look, feel and smell of a natural soap then you will love these!

Lavender Flowers Soap Bar retails for $6.99 for 3.5oz.

Peppermint Leaf Soap Bar for $6.99 for 3.5oz.

Anti-Aging Retinoid Face Oil by Geneva Naturals

*Anti-Aging Retinoid Face Oil by Geneva Naturals

Another great face oil by Geneva Naturals!  I would consider this Anti-Aging Retinoid Face Oil the sister oil to their Anti-Aging Cellular Face Oil.  Just like the Cellular Oil this Anti-Aging Retinoid Face Oil is form developed with potent ingredients.  This Oil contains Blue Tansy Oil, Chamomile and Grapeseed Oil among other impressive elements which work synergistically to improve the overall look of the skin.

This lovely oil is meant to be used as part of an evening skincare routine since it's a retinoid and can make skin more sensitive to the sun.  This is definitely an oil that you want to make sure to use all over your face, neck and decollete, anywhere you are concerned about signs of aging.  I even use it on the back of my hands!  

Retinoids help accelerate the skin cell renewal process which then reveals the new, younger looking skin underneath.  This oil effectively removes dead skin cells, helps reduce hyperpigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles and allows for a more smooth, revitalized and even-toned complexion.  Don't forget to use sunscreen while using this oil to protect your fresh, new skin!!

I think everyone should be using a Retinol product at one level or another, especially if you are over the age of 30, and I'm sure that any dermatologist would agree.  It's the one skincare ingredient that will help keep skin looking and feeling younger...guaranteed!

This Anti-Aging Retinoid Face Oil by Geneva Naturals is a fantastic facial oil and a Must Have!

Don't forget Geneva Naturals is a "feel good"company since they are proudly free of Parabens, Sulfates, Phtalates and Animal Cruelty!

Retails for $99.00 for 1oz.

Anti-Aging Cellular Face Oil by Geneva Naturals

*Anti-Aging Cellular Face Oil by Geneva Naturals

Several years ago if you would of asked me to put oil on my already oily face I would of laughed and told you, you were crazy.  That was before I knew better.  I knew that oily skin like mine still needed moisture just like every other skin type but I simply could not imagine that putting the right oil on my face would not only hydrate my skin but balance it and help curb the amount of oil my skin was producing.  Knowledge is power and now I know better and cannot get enough of facial oils!

The key is finding the right facial oil for your skin type and for me that means diving in, puttingit on my face hoping for the best.  Thankfully, I've found that method usually works in my favor.  My skin just loves a good quality facial oil and I've been blessed to try out quite a few.

This Anti-Aging Cellular Face Oil by Geneva Naturals is one of those that my skin just loves.  Developed with a potent blend of Raspberry, Cranberry, and Blueberry Seed Oil that work together to help lessen the signs of aging, rejuvenate the skin and help repair damage caused by free radicals.  

All it takes is 2-3 drops to help make fine lines and wrinkles less noticeable and give skin a nice healthy glow.  The Anti-Aging Cellular Face Oil is lightweight, easily absorbed and skin feels nourished, hydrated but not at all greasy.

I love using this Anti-Aging Cellular Face Oil by Geneva Naturals in my morning skincare routine and like to apply it to my face, neck and decollete.  I usually add a little more on the tops of my cheekbones which provides a nice, natural highlight, no makeup needed!

Make sure to massage any left over oil into hands and cuticles.  After all, your hands needs some anti-aging TLC too!!

Also, Geneva Naturals is a "feel good"company since they are proudly free of Parabens, Sulfates, Phtalates and Animal Cruelty!

Retails for $89.99 for 1oz.

Brittanies Thyme ~ An Organic Skincare Line That You Need to Check Out!

 *Brittanies Thyme ~ An Organic Skincare Line That You Need to Check Out!

If you are an all natural, organic skincare lover like myself and you haven't experienced Brittanies Thyme then you definitely are missing out on some wonderful products!  Not only are they wonderful products but they are also extremely affordable.  These products prove there is no need to spend a fortune to get good quality products that work!  If I had to explain Brittanies Thyme products in three words they would be Organic, Simple and Exceptional.

Brittanies Thyme was nice enough to send me a few products a few months back and I instantly fell in love with all of them.  Here is what I've been loving and why...

 Organic Citrus Facial Cleanser

I was only sent a sample size of this little gem but I became a fan after just one use.  This soap free cleanser is made using only the best quality organic ingredients possible and I think that's what makes this cleanser so good.  It contains skin loving ingredients like Organic Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, *Organic Jojoba Seed Oil, Organic Witch Hazel and Organic Rosemary Extract among others.  It cleanses the skin without drying it out, in fact, skin actually feels hydrated after using this cleanser.  I really enjoyed using this cleanser and used up every last bit of the sample I was given.  I loved it and plan on adding the full size to my cleanser collection.  I would highly recommend this Organic Citrus Facial Cleanser for all skin types.  

Retails for $14.95 for 4oz.

 Organic Balancing Toner

Now this was the stand out product for me!  I absolutely LOVE this Organic Balancing Toner.  I love everything about.  It smells wonderful and it makes my skin look and feel wonderful too!

Formulated with Organic Witch Hazel, Organic Peppermint Oil, Organic Sweet Orange Oil and Organic Rose Flower Oil it perfectly removes any remaining residue, soothes irritated skin while balancing it out and hydrating it all at the same time.  I really love the addition of the Peppermint Oil, it feels so refreshing!  It's especially nice to use in the mornings when you just need a little extra something to help wake you up.  Once again, I would highly recommend this for all skin types!  Retails for $12.95 for 4oz.

Organic Eye Oil

I love this Organic Eye Oil!  I am one of those that loves a good eye balm or eye oil and this for my night time routine or if I am just going to be hanging around the house all day.  I tend to have a dry under eye area so this is like heaven in a bottle for me.

Made with Organic Sweet Almond Oil and Vitamin E all you need is just a little drop to do both eyes.  A little goes a long way.  Plus, you don't want to over do it and end up getting the oil in your eyes, I speak from experience!  It doesn't hurt, you just have a little blurred vision for a few minutes. :)

Upon application the skin around your eyes feels nourished, hydrated and soothed!  If you suffer from dry under eyes like me or if you are concerned with fine lines and wrinkles then this is a MUST HAVE product!
Retails for $10.95 for 1oz.

Organic Protective Facial Moisturizer

This is another product that I only received a sample of but of course I ended up loving it after just the first use as well.  

I'm 43 so so you would think I would need some thick, anti-aging cream to use for my day to day moisturizer but that could not be further from the truth.  I may be 43 but I have very oily skin that can be sensitive to break outs if I put anything too heavy on it so I tend to be really picky about the kind of moisturizer that I put on my face.  This Organic Protective Facial Moisturizer is everything I look for in a facial moisturizer.  It's lightweight, absorbs quickly and easily, doesn't clog my pores and wears nicely under makeup!

Comprised of the perfect ingredients like Organic Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Organic Jojoba Seed Oil, Organic Rice Bran Oil, Organic Hemp Seed Oil and Organic Peppermint Oil just to name a few it hydrates, nourishes and leaves skin looking and feeling soft.  The perfect moisturizer that I would recommend for all skin types.
Retails for $17.95 for 2oz.

Organic Sensitive Facial Serum

This was another sample size that I received but knew instantly that this was one I would need to get in a full size.

Everyone should have a nice well rounded serum in their skincare collection and this one would be perfect for anyone on the fence about what kind of serum to use.  Formulated with Organic Jojoba Seed Oil, Organic Apricot Kernel Oil, Organic Rice Bran Oil and many other quality, organic ingredients this has the look and feel of a really expensive serum.
This Organic Sensitive Facial Serum is deeply nourishing and hydrating without making skin feel greasy.  It absorbs beautifully, plumps and softens the skin and makes fine lines and wrinkles less noticeable.  A great serum for any skin type!
Retails for $35.95 for 1.7oz.

French Green Clay Facial Mask with White Tea

I'm basically a sucker for just about any kind of mask.  I think using some type of mask a few times a week is essential for great skin.  As someone who still struggles with oily skin I'm partial to a clay mask which is part of the reason that I love this French Green Clay Facial Mask with White Tea so much.  The other part is that it's a great mask that does great things for my skin!  Developed with French Green Clay and Organic White Tea this mask draws out any impurities hiding in the pores, exfoliates dead skin cells and helps rejuvenate and detoxify run-down skin.  After just one use skin feels restored.  For optimal results I recommend following up with their Organic Sensitive Facial Serum!

Retails for $8.95 for 1oz.

Brittanies Thyme Skincare products are definitely worth checking out and I cannot recommend them enough!  With products for every skin type and just about any issue there is something for everybody!

I was able to find some of the products mentioned above on Amazon so I went ahead and linked those below, prices vary...

Multi-Vitamin Recovery Facial Peel & Multi-Vitamin Recovery Day Cream by D’OR24K Luxury Skincare

*Multi-Vitamin Recovery Facial Peel & Multi-Vitamin Recovery Day Cream 

by D’OR24K Luxury Skincare

The quickest and easiest way to achieve younger looking skin that feels as good as it looks is by exfoliation.  That being said there are a multitude of ways to exfoliate from chemical to using an actual tool to get the job done.  I find that the quickest and easiest is way to accomplish the level of exfoliation I desire is through chemical exfoliation.  Chemical exfoliation comes in many forms but the most common is hydroxy acids, like Lactic Acid, Salicylic Acid and Glycolic Acid.  Retinol is also another common form.

This Multi-Vitamin Recovery Facial Peel uses one of my favorite chemical exfoliators, Glycolic Acid.  Glycolic Acid works like a dream.  It's able to deeply penetrate the skin and help remove dead skin cells and reveal the fresh, new skin underneath.  That means it's highly effective at treating a variety of issues from fine lines and wrinkles to acne and hyperpigmentation.  The Peel also contains 24 karat gold (yes, that's right) and green tea to help boost collagen levels.

The best thing about this Multi-Vitamin Recovery Facial Peel is that it's so easy to use and you get instant gratification.  Simply apply the gel-like product to damp skin and rub gently in circular motion and watch the dead skin slough off.  Voilà, you instantly have younger, softer and smoother skin all in a matter of minutes!  Gentle but really effective!

I would recommend this for all skin types.  I would use it at least twice a week or more if your skin and bank account can handle it!

The only thing I don't like about this Multi-Vitamin Recovery Facial Peel is the price tag.  At a retail price of $195.00 it's definitely expensive and probably not something that will fit into every budget.  Which, I find unfortunate because that means not everyone will get to experience what a wonderful product it is. :(

The perfect partner to the Multi-Vitamin Recovery Facial Peel is the Multi-Vitamin Recovery Day Cream.  This is a luxurious cream that makes skin look and feel really amazing.  Especially, when used following the Multi-Vitamin Recovery Facial Peel!  However, it also works perfectly as a daily moisturizer and/or night cream.  It's surprisingly lightweight, absorbs instantly and wears really well under makeup.
Skin feels instantly hydrated upon application and even looks a little luminous.  Just like the Multi-Vitamin Recovery Facial Peel this cream also contains actual 24 karat gold which supports collagen production and that mean more youthful, supple skin.  It also incorporates Green Tea and Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil to assist in inflammation issues and to help improve skin elasticity.  Overall, skin looks younger, healthier and glowing.
Once again, the only negative thing I can say is that it's a pricey product.  Just like the Peel it retail's for $195.00.  If it fits into your budget then lucky you and I say go for it and buy them both.  You won't be disappointed!

Go to deor24k.com for more information on these and other D’OR24K Luxury Skincare products.  Be sure to check out their Non Surgical Lifting Syringe which is another really amazing product and worth splurging on!

Anti-Aging Purifying Clay Mask by Geneva Naturals

*Anti-Aging Purifying Clay Mask by Geneva Naturals

I know Sheet Masks are on trend right now and I do love a good sheet mask, especially when my skin is in need of some serious hydration.  However, a good clay mask will probably always be my first love.  Or at least, until my skin stops being so oily!

Even if you don't have oily skin like me sometimes you just need a good clay mask.  I think all skin types can benefit from a clay mask, even dry skin.  A good clay mask can help exfoliate dead skin and help keep you looking younger.  This Anti-Aging Purifying Clay Mask by Geneva Naturals is the perfect example of a clay mask that benefits all skin types and especially my oily, aging skin.  It combines my love of clay with superior anti-aging ingredients so my skin gets the best of both worlds.

The formula of this clay mask incorporates mineral rich Bentonite and Kaolin clay to help draw out unwanted dirt and grime that's trapped deep inside the pores.  At the same time it heals any existing face demons and prevents new ones from forming.  Meanwhile, the antioxidants like Willow Bark, Cranberry and Passionflower provide anti-aging benefits and help restore and rejuvenate skin.  After just one use skin feels like it's been deep cleaned yet also feels hydrated at the same time.  It's also feels super soft and smooth!

I would definitely recommend this mask for all skin types.  For best results and also to keep skin in tip-top condition I would recommend using it at least 3 times a week.  Depending on your own personal skins' needs, of course.

Another reason to LOVE this Anti-Aging Purifying Clay Mask by Geneva Naturals is that it is free of  Parab̩ens, Phtalates, Sulfates and it's also Cruelty Free!

Make sure you head over to genevanaturals.com for more information on this Anti-Aging Purifying Clay Mask and check out their other products as well.  I am currently testing our their Anti-Aging Retinoid Face Oil and their Anti-Aging Cellular Face Oil and loving them so stay tuned for my reviews on those coming up later in the week!
