| An average person uses 10 personal care products each morning. That's a lot of chemicals. |
Your skin is a barrier that acts like a sponge. As time goes on, I've learned a few lessons about lotions, potions and beauty products. More and more, I prefer natural skin care that is free of parabens, phthalates and other chemicals you are better off without. But regardless of how beneficial a beauty regiment is, if it's crazy expensive, what good is it to you? So I'm always on the lookout for outstanding personal care products that won't break the bank. Fortunately, there are green-minded companies who get it right at reasonable prices. Here are two, available at Whole Foods and in drugstores:
J.R. Watkins prides itself on being “America's original natural apothecary” company. Since 1868, Walkins has used the finest natural ingredients in its diverse lines of skin care, home cleaners, and pain relief liniments. That's 142 years of remedies and skin care, listing natural ingredients that my grandmother would recognize like aloe vera, green tea and shea butter. And recently Walkins launched new face care products, including a cleansing cream, exfoliator, and day and night creams. Plus they offer your best weapon against aging skin -- a natural sun screen. Costs: $3.49 - $13.99.
Kiss My Face, another company committed to caring for your skin “the way nature intended” has a complete skin care system called, Potent and Pure, that is free of synthetic preservatives, additives, chemicals and artificial fragrances. It uses the highest quality and most effective ingredients in nature, such as sunflower seed oil, basil extract and hibiscus flowers, to name a few. You'll find everything you need to fight blemishes, dryness, oiliness and aging. Their other moisturizers and personal care toiletries are "obsessively natural" too. Costs: $1.29 - $23.00.
Both companies combine beneficial botanicals and natural emollients, which really work. You get fresh and clean scents. Between them, discover creams and ointments formulated with vitamins, minerals and herbs for all your skin care needs. And you''ll like the prices. Healthy green ingredients that leave some green in your wallet.
