Best Cleanser: Naturopathica Manuka Honey Cleansing Balm
This is such an amazing product!
Once you add water, the oil turns into a nice thin lather.
After rinsing, my skin was left soft and hydrated.
I almost forgot to put on moisturizer!
The fragrance is subtle with a sweet honey smell.
I like the Tata Harper because its not too heavy but still does a really great job moisturizing.
I use it at night after I wash my face, tone, and use a serum.
It spread like cream once it was on my skin.
I was worried it would absorb immediately and be impossible to spread, but that didnt happen.
I could see exactly where I need to apply the product before it dried clear.
It was really lightweight on my skin and didnt feel too greasy on my daily outdoor run.
Even when I exfoliate and use good balms, they still dry out really fast.
I prefer lipsticks that are hydrating, so my lips dont look flaky.
(I hate when the color sticks to those extra chapped places and makes the lipstick look uneven.)
This product made my lips look supple and hydrated, and the color swipes on super easily and beautifully.
Its really light, like milky water, with an earthy smell (must be the shrooms).
It absorbs quickly and my skin just felt silky.
It makes program super quick and easy.
The smell is lovely, like a soft coconut smell with a little vanilla.
The thickness and consistency is perfect.
It’s basically highlighter for your body.
And the pump bottle makes for zero mess.
I would absolutely use this every day if I could.
The embodiment of meh.
This scrub has small granules made of crushed acai berries.
Unlike sugar exfoliants, they dont melt before they can scrub away dead skin.
This left my skin glowing and easily rinsed away clean.
The most important thing about a mist is the nozzle.
If every time you spritz you end up with product in your eye, its an automatic fail.
This product comes out in a fine spray that covers my entire face without making me feel drenched.
I like this lip balm because its not waxy or thick.
I keep a jar in my kitchen and my bathroom for everything from frying onions to moisturizing my hair.
I like this stick form because its less messy than digging it out of a jar.
This way I wont have greasy fingers touching my clothes and bathroom mirror.
I rubbed a bit on my face before bed and put the excess on my cuticles.
Its also great for my natural hair on wash day.
I just apply a little to my dry ends before jumping in the shower.
