Organic Lip Balm


I know, I know I'm a lip balm addict and when I hear of good one to try. I like to see how good it is.

I heard about Dr. Bronner's Lemon Lime Lip Balm ($2.50, amazon.com) from the organic store my aunt goes to. It goes on smooth without any waxy after feel. It also has a nice citrus taste to it but not overpowering at least to me.

A Natural Whitening Toothpaste




















As you know I love trying something new or different.
I wanted to try Nature's Gate Organic Raspberry Mint Whitening Toothpaste with fluoride ($6.99, natures-gate.com) because it's natural and organic plus I've always used a toothpaste from the three national brands. Why not try something new?
The texture doesn't feel gritty but smooth like regular toothpaste. The flavor of raspberry mint is very refreshing and different.
I recommend this toothpaste to those bored with the national brand and want to try something different.

Deep Cleaning Facial Mask


A month ago, I mentioned to a friend over the phone, whose lives in TX, that I've been looking for a new facial mask to try and she recommended Farmaesthetics Rosehip & Clay Mint Mask (4 oz. for $19.00, farmaesthetics.com).
It contains organically grown peppermint leaves & rosehips which are suppose to remove oil and bring down skin inflammation. I found it easy to use and I saved money because I mixed only the amount that was needed with water (use filtered or bottle water for best results) to create a paste.
From directions: Let dry to tingling then remove with water.

Chamomile and Green Tea a Tough eye make-up remover


My aunt (the one who introduced me to The River Soap Company products) who is into organic and green living has given me another product to try, Earth Science Chamomile and Green Tea Eye Make-up Remover ($6.50, veganunlimited.com).

It's very non-irritating and took off all my make-up without leaving any sticky residue around my eyes or making the skin around my eyes feel tight. It's fragrance free and no artificial coloring added.
Also, I didn't need to use a lot of it for it to work. Even if you are not into green living this is a great product to at least try.
