Eco Friendly Products

It makes me so mad when I lose my photos! I took a lot of photos of my April Birchbox package.  I remember editing and storing them in my Picasa, but now I can't find them anywhere O_o Anyway, I took new photos and here they are.

This month's Birchbox is honoring Earth Day which was last Friday (I know I'm so late). To celebrate, they included Eco friendly products that helps the environment and will make us look good at the same time. This is pretty exciting because I will get to try a lot of organic, eco-friendly products that I've never heard before.

1. Extra: Juice Beauty Stem Cellular Repair Eye Treatment- I was happy to see Juice Beauty included in this month's Birchbox. I tried one of their face wash a long time ago and I remember loving it. Hopefully, this eye repair will be a good one.

2. Zoya nail polish in Caitlin- I'm not a nail polish person at all, but this shade is soo pretty. It's a purple gray with a glossy finish.

3. LIV GRN-Earth Eau de Parfum- According to Birchbox, it has hints of Jasmine and Sandalwood. I'm so bad at describing scents, but I can say that it smells really nice (sorry I suck!). 

4.Weleda Wild Rose Smoothing Facial lotion- Organic lotion rich in anti-oxidants and vitamin A and E, which soften and protect the skin.

5. Juice Beauty Green Apple Peel- An organic peel consist of natural fruit acids which gives a brighter and smoother complexion. 

6. Extra: Bloomin Seed Paper- I've never seen a seed paper before. I didn't even know it existed lol. Plant this paper in soil, give it a little bit of water and watch it grows into wildflowers. Now that's cool!

Zoya nail polish in Caitlyn. I tired it on my niece's nails and it's sooo pretty! I think I'm just gonna give it to her lol.

I'm so happy with all the products I got. I'm not big on the whole organic and Eco-friendly products, but I'm sure glad I was able to help the environment even just a little bit by purchasing this month's Birchbox.

Feed Your Face

Did you know that our skin absorbs up to 64% of what we put on it? It’s a scary statistic, considering the ingredients found in most cosmetic products. Juice Beauty prefers to do things the natural way, using certified organic ingredients in their paraben-, fragrance-, and petroleum-free formulas. This line of cleansers, moisturizers, masks, and treatments uses freshly-squeezed organic juice concentrates as its base, not water – so products are rich in potent antioxidants, essential vitamins, phytonutrients and hydroxy acids. Juice Beauty gets your skin glowing while leaving you with peace of mind.

My favorite Juice Beauty product is the Green Apple Peel – Sensitive Skin. This powerful (yet gentle) hydroxy acid complex of certified organic apple, lemon, grape juices, and raw cane sugar exfoliates and brightens for visibly improved skin tone and texture – and it smells good enough to eat!

If you’re a bit hesitant to spend $39 for 2 ounces of the Green Apple Peel, go to juicebeauty.com and pick up a sample for $4.75. Trust me, you’ll be back for more.

Their motto is: “Try it because it’s organic. Use it because it works.” I couldn’t have said it better myself.

Juice Beauty is available at Sephora, hsn.com, and juicebeauty.com.
