Happy Monday and Good Morning!
I haven’t done an update on the beauty products I use simply because I love to stick to the same ones I know work for me and are natural. Here in the States I love one store in particular. Whole Foods! I don’t go there too often because it is so expensive but what they offer is close to what I get in a natural health store in Germany so I am like a kid in a candy store. Besides all the organic food they offer, the beauty aisles are just great. They even have homeopathic medicine. I could wander these aisles for hours! Can I go to a store like this with my son? It is challenging – but I love challenges! The store has these little shopping carts for kids so he is fine. But he is reaching for whatever is in his hight and he can grab with his tiny hands; of course it is usually pretty expensive lotions, perfumes and creams which keeps my visits to the store pretty brief.
When it comes to natural beauty, what do you really need? Not much I have to say. The products I am introducing here do the job for me and I don’t really use anything else.
- Khadi Products: I love Khadi Products. They have a great assortment of products but I have to say that I only tried their hair care so far. They have cremes and lotions, bath gels, massage/essential oils and soaps. Check out my hair routine here.
- To take a shower I use this bar of soap. It is by the Company Sunrider and it is just awesome! It last a long time too. (And yes, I do take a shower every day! haha)
- Coconut Oil: I have been using Nutive Coconut Oil for my hair when the end are dry. Or for my hands and even face once in a while. I use it to cook too.
- Thayers Lemon Witch Hazel: My skin is really awesome and glowing since I use this product. I use it in the morning and at night. Just apply an amount on a cotton pad and wipe over your face. It cleanses and soothes the skin.
- Heritage Rosewater: This rosewater is amazing. It works as skin lotion or perfume. You simply spritz some Rosewater on your face and it feels like you used a cream. It keeps you face hydrated, smooth and soft. You can literally use it as a lotion. If you have acne, use it before you apply makeup and refresh your hair or face anytime.
- Arnica Gel: This stuff is great, especially if you have a child. It works really well on bruises and is a fast pain relief. I am taking arnica homeopathic tablets for sore muscles after a workout, pain relief and if I feel I get a cold.
- My homemade cream: I stick to this cream because I know what is in it because I put it in. 🙂 I use this cream for face, body and as well for my son. My cream is great for diaper rashes too.
- As far as makeup, I don’t really use any. I like my face the way it is! But, occasionally I do use Dr. Hauschka Mascara or Concealer. Dr. Hauschka products are okay once in a while. Their rosewater, rose oil or anything Lavender I love. Check out the website here.
- I love Weleda Products. My son and I use their toothpaste for quite some time now and I haven’t had problems with my teeth ever since. If I run out of my homemade cream I would buy their body lotions. Good stuff!
I would love to hear from you. Are you into natural beauty products and what are you using?
Thank you for reading my blog.
