I wish I could say I am comfortable going out in public with natural hair and make-up….no products, just what God gave me. But I’m not. Yet.
However, there’s something freeing about having your face freshly scrubbed, clean hair, and the skin color you were born with. I like the feeling of being natural and fresh, and I’ve started getting much pickier about the products I try, use, and recommend. I live in a family of vegetarian holistic types, which has opened my eyes to what I put on my skin, hair, and in my body. I’ve discovered the wonderful world of oils for lots of uses: coconut oil, grapeseed oil, olive oil. I’ve discovered a few healthy recipes that can still pass as desserts. And I’ve begun reading labels to find out what exactly is in the products I use.
So, when I received a free sample of Seventh Generation Skin Serum from Lucky and Seventh Generation for use in connection with this blog, I was excited. I actually recognized ALL the ingredients! Nothing I couldn’t pronounce, nothing I couldn’t feel good about putting on my skin. Brilliant! The oat extract in the soothing serum is especially calming to the skin, which is great after a day of my skin subjected to sun, smog, sweat, and cosmetic build-up. It’s light, it’s moisturizing, and it’s affordable! Finally…a natural product that isn’t going to drain your wallet, and you can find it at your local Walgreens.
There you have it. From one natural lover to another, check out Seventh Generation Boosts Serums. And check out this recipe for a healthy dessert option…because they do exist!
