We all know that natural products are good for you, but not all of us follow an all-natural routine. I don't exclusively use them either, but I thought I'd write this post to share some of my favorites.


Suki Exfoliate Foaming Cleanser

"Award-winning, deep-cleansing, 100% synthetic-free, alpha hydroxy complexion rejuvenator brightens & evens tone, smoothes wrinkles & lines, eliminates blemishes & impurities from pores while jump starting collagen production."

This gentle divine-smelling scrub is currently my favorite bi-weekly exfoliating treatment. I first got a chance to try it after receiving a small sample in my Birchbox, and have been obsessed with it ever since. My skin improved after the very first use: my pores looked smaller and it actually got the grease out better than another scrub I was using at the time. After my sample ran out, I knew I had to get more. Now after 4 weeks of use, it cleared out the pores on my nose so well that I don't feel self-conscious when standing close to someone anymore. It's quite expensive, but to me it was worth every penny.

Seventh Generation Skin Serum: Hydrating Boost with Jojoba, Acai and Passion Flower

"Hydrating Boost is specially formulated to provide all-day moisture to help relieve and protect against chapping, cracking and roughness due to dryness. Jojoba, Acai and Passion flower oils help restore your skin’s natural moisture balance for noticeably softer, more radiant skin."

I received a free sample of this product from Lucky and Seventh Generation for use in connection with this blog, and it was a very unexpected discovery. I use a lot of Seventh Generation household products and never really considered them as my first choice for skin care products, but this serum made me interested enough to try out their entire line. This serum is basically a blend of hydrating oils which you can use on your face, body or even hair. I've been using it at night mostly, because it's too hot to use oils during the daytime over here. Anyway, I put one squirt on my face under my night cream, and mixed two-three squirts with my body lotion, and I always wake up with the softest skin! I don't recommend using it during the day, unless you have super dry skin.

Weleda Almond Soothing Facial Oil

"Sensitive skin gets indulgent nurturing with this soothing, hypoallergenic Almond Soothing Facial Oil. Our natural Almond Oil for face is a deeply absorbent, fragrance-free treatment that gently restores your skin’s healthy balance and revives its natural protective functions."

Almond oil is actually one of my staples, I use it every time my skin throws a fit. So whenever it feels tight or flaky or patchy, I put this oil on right after the shower when the skin is still moist and warm so it spreads easily, and it fixes those problems right away. It also works well as a gentle makeup remover or a hair treatment, so when my scalp feels itchy I just massage some oil into the roots, wrap my hair in a towel and walk around like that for as long as I can. It really is a versatile product!

Savane Purifying Toner

"Savane Purifying Toner evens skin tone and protects against premature aging. Powerful antioxidants aspalathin and super-oxide dismutase found in Rooibos protect your skin against free radical damage caused by pollution, smoke, sun exposure and stress."

I received this toner in my Yuzen box a few months ago, and it's one of the few that actually seem to work for me. It noticeably tightens the pores and at the same time provides a slight moisturizing effect. Sometimes on especially hot days I just use this toner and nothing else on my face, and reapply it from time to time to freshen up. I like the fresh herbal fragrance and the fact that it doesn't make my face feel sticky like some other toners.

LAVANILLA The Healthy Deodorant in Pure Vanilla

"This All-Natural, freshly scented deodorant provides superior, long-lasting odor protection. Soothing essential oils blend with powerful anti-oxidants and beta glucan technology for daily defense and nourishment."

I've always wanted to try this deodorant so I bought the travel-sized version at Sephora. To be honest, it's definitely not comparable to traditional aluminum antiperspirants in terms of keeping off the BO, so I have to reapply 2-3 times a day and because of that I only use it on the days when I don't expect to do any physical activities. It doesn't have a very traditional vanilla scent, instead I think it has more floral/woodsy notes, which are nice too, but could be a disappointment to the "cupcake" fragrance lovers. It's really hard to find a good all-natural aluminum-free deodorant, and this one has been the most effective so far from the ones I tried, but like I mentioned earlier, it's not nearly on the same level as Secret or Degree.
