Sibu Beauty |Sea Buckthorn Balancing Facial Cleanser {review}

I have a great new natural skin care product to introduce from a company called Sibu Beauty. This company prides itself on containing only the best ingredients such as the powerful and nutrient-rich sea buckthorn berry – harvested exclusively from the Himalayas. Each of their products are paraben-free, cruelty-free and preservative-free and promote improved skin tone, texture and overall healthy aging. I was very happy to see that all of their products rated fantastically on the EWG Skin Deep Data Base (0-1) which is the lowest and safest rating a product can get!

I’ve been using Sibu Beauty’s  Sea Buckthorn Balancing facial cleanser for a few days now and been quite satisfied with the results that I’ve been getting with the product. This particular product is deep yet gentle. The exfoliating properties are obviously there and are gentle enough to not agitate the skin in any way.

Sibu Beauty’s  detoxifying facial cleanser easily removes dirt, impurities and make-up while maintaining a healthy balance in your skin without compromising its natural protective nutrients. After use my face felt fresh & clean throughout the span of the day and I loved how easily it was to use and welcomed the fact that it was a  non-foaming gel. I’ve used other cleansers and the foaming was just a bit too much for my liking.

I found this product on sale for 8.98 on the Supplement Warehouse website for a 4 ounce bottle. It usually retails for 17.99 at other places such as GNC and on the Sibu Beaty website.  On the Sibu Beauty site, you can purchase the product for 17.95 with free shipping and handling charges though if there’s a GNC around you can pop in and see if it’s available to save you the trouble of buying online. I would recommend this product if you are looking for an all natural facial cleanser that is safe for your skin and for the environment around you.

Holiday Gift Guide: Tropical Traditions Soap Review

logo-small

cocosoap_lavender

I probably have way more shampoo, lotions, and soaps than I need crammed on the rack in my bathroom. I have quite a bit because sometimes my skin has a negative effect to a product that I wasn’t able to try before I bought it. I want to smell nice but I don’t want my skin to get all dried out or have my skin break out.

Since my skin issues to other products, I’ve discovered the benefits of organic products like the ones offered at Tropical Traditions. What’s so special? Well, many of products like their soaps are made from non-refined, fresh, organic coconuts from the Philippines and no chemical solvents are used in processing.

I was sent Tropical Traditions Coconut soap in Lavender to try out. I found that the soap smell wasn’t overpowering and that it lathered nicely. I’ve been amazed at the results of my skin after using this soap, even my husband likes using it! It’s hard to believe a product that has left my skin feeling so fresh and smelling so delightful only consist of two ingredients!

I’m hoping to eventually get my hands on the only other scent available Tea Tree. These round 3.4 oz soaps normally cost $6.95 a piece but right now are on sell for 5.50 each! Check them out for yourself at Tropical Traditions.


I’m going to be giving away a gift set from Tropical Traditions during the month of November,after a series of various product reviews of the items included. Be on the look out for your chance to enter!  Note that if you comment on this review, you’ll get an extra entry into the giveaway **

Heaven’s Alchemy Exquisite Perfumes Review and Giveaway (CLOSED)

b51e38f7-0fbb-41d3-a28c-e86245753c0a

I have never been a big of a fan of perfumes.  I had tried many that ended up making me feel icky, giving me a headache, or would make me sneeze uncontrollably. To make matters worse, other people would wear perfume and it would be so strong and give me a reaction as well. I gave up wearing perfumes and stuck to body sprays that are great but the fragrance only last so long before it wears off.

When I heard about Heaven’s Alchemy Exquisite Perfumes, perfumes that are made without the use of alcohol, color additives, phthalates and parabens, I was willing to give it a try.

Each of  Heaven’s Alchemy perfumes are made with the finest essential oils coming together to make unique engaging fragrances that invoke passion, romance, and sophistication.

aadce02a-7305-4605-a64b-99c7e3c60139The names of the fragrances are after certain romantic cities throughout the world. Such as Dublin, Kyoto, Casablanca, and Paris to be specific.

The bottles my husband and I both fell in love with.  Each of the bottles are handcrafted and reflect the artisan’s work in their natural variation. I think each of the bottles represent each of the perfumes perfectly.

Heaven’s Alchemy was generous enough to send me a sampler set which included all thirteen of their fragrances. I think a sampler pack is an ingenious idea, by the way! I was very nervous before trying out these perfumes and was clearly surprised when I had no bad reaction at all!

A few of my favorites include Kyoto, Milan, Dublin, and Zanzibar. The description of  the Dublin perfume is “Enchanting landscapes, ancient mysteries, fairies and poetry. Our magical formula summons the Romance that is distinctly, beautifully Irish” in which suits it well.

Overall, I am fan of Heaven’s Alchemy Exquisite Perfumes and will be hinting this to my husband!
