addy's esthetics

I love that I’ve been using my first bottle of this cleanser for MONTHS and it’s still at least 1/4 full. Those two little pumps really are all you need. Given that, the $18 price tag is a downright steal!…(click post title for more detail)

I only got a tiny sample kit of NUDE Skincare‘s products and I’m already kinda in love. I’m ready to settle down and make 10,000 babies with these products (and I’ve only used 4 tiny little packets!)… (click post title for more detail)

I first tried Avalon Organics about three years ago. Of course, it was cleanser that first drew me in (favorite product). I’m also a big fan of Vitamin C use on the skin so when I saw their Vitamin C Refreshing Cleansing Gel I got very excited…(click post title for more detail)

I know a lot of people don’t want to or can’t bother taking this extra step and I respect that.

It feels fresh, smells great and can help your skin maintain its youthful glow longer…(click post title for more details)

I find this cleanser to be great for my kinda sensitive, combination towards oily skin. I love the way it smells and I’ll definitely buy it again…(click post title for more detail)

I hunted for it a bit on the website but the medical part is really deep and I don’t remember exactly which one I had. Since then, I’ve noticed Weleda products here and there – when babysitting, the baby products; when hanging out with my hippy friends, the strange salt toothpaste (that I’m fascinated by but can’t bring myself to pay $7 for); on my seemingly eternal hunt for curl taming hair products, the Rosemary Hair Oil (review of that coming later). Then, I was poking around at Target and saw their Skin Food in the section with the Juice Organics and other more natural products. I actually clapped and said “Yay!
