People used to ask me why I wore so much blush on my cheeks. It is frustrating to have to explain over and over again to people that the blush they see comes from a rash. The rash came from face cleaning products that irritated my skin. I tried just about everything I could get at the local store including all the “natural” products you can find easily. Did you know that the word “natural” is not regulated? So any company can put the word “natural” on their product packaging and we believe them! That’s horrible!
At one point I stumbled upon Jojoba Oil and began using it as my facial cleanser. The skin rash immediately disappeared. This was my first entry into natural facial cleansers and this opened up a new world for me. I used Jojoba Oil for many years as a facial cleanser. I still use it often as a post-shower full-body moisturizer. A small little bit, rubbed between my palms and rubbed into the skin.
A couple of year’s ago, I was introduced to another natural facial cleansing product line, Dr. Hauschka, that I now exclusively use. Dr. Hauschka products are made with sustainable, ecologically sound agricultural practices by obtaining as many of their ingredients as possible from certified Biodynamic and organic sources.
Their holistic skin care products are made from organic ingredients and natural oils. With these products, a little goes a long way, so do not be deterred by the price. I purchase this only a couple of times a year and it lasts a long, long time!
My skin is so sensitive to just about every product that I’ve tried. For years I lived with a slight redness to my skin all over my body, dry itchy skin and general miserableness. I tried just about every product under the sun, especially the ones that claimed they were “allergy-free”. It just wasn’t so for me.
Then I found Sappo Hill Natural Oatmeal Fragrance Free Glycerine Creme Soap. This soap is made from natural palm and coconut oils. The process they use to create it generates a very mild product that is wonderful to my skin! There are small flakes of oatmeal in the fragrance-free variety of this soap and these oatmeal flakes gently remove old skin cells and leave my skin feeling refreshed! No worries, the oatmeal is NOT scratchy like some other products on the market. Even my guests rave about it!
I highly recommend this product for people with sensitive skin. My entire house is stocked with this product which I purchase online from MotherNature.com where they sell thousands of all-natural Health & Wellness products. They often have great sales with free shipping.
