Pink Post: The Terranova Tuberose Collection

Terranova is known for its huge collection of bath and body products which have been favorites of women since 1970. Throughout the month of October, which is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Terranova will be donating 5% of the proceeds from their Terranova Turberose Colleciton to the National Breast Cancer Foundation.

The Tuberose Hydrating Body Wash is the first product that I have tried from Terranova, and I love it! It has a very rich, clean smell that lasts after the shower. A small amount goes a long way, and unlike a lot of body washes that I have tried, it did not leave my skin feeling dry and itchy. It can be purchased on the Terranova site today for $14.50 here.

Review: Lava Love Vegan Volcano Soap Made with Volcanic Ash

Everyone is talking about detoxing though what you put in your body, but no one is really addressing the toxins that we expose to our bodies through what we put on it. Many of the body products that we are using on our exterior can be just as harmful as the things we are eating.

That is why I was excited when I received this Lava Love Vegan Volcano Soap Made with Volcanic Ash.

The soap is made in Oregon from Shea Butter soap and the lava of volcanos that are native to the area. The lava contains bentonite, zeolite and pumice, which draws toxins from the skin and exfoliates it. The soap's ingredients also help to tone the skin, so, between you and me, I have make sure to lather a little extra on my arms:)

On first use, the soap seems muddy, but it suds amazingly and the tiny pumice beads inside of it feel great on the skin and leave it feeling smooth. It has an earthy scent, and after using it for two weeks, I have noticed that my skin feels significantly softer.

Not sure that you why to shower with volcanic ash? I would definitely suggest you at least try it to cleanse your skin and as a healthy alternative to the soap that you currently use.

Review: Limoneira Avocado Body Bar and Lemon Avocado Body Butter

I think that I have finally found the perfect soap and lotion combination for my skin. Limoneira's Lemon Avocado Body Butter and Avocado Body Bar left my hopelessly dry skin feeling smooth and lively.

If you are someone that is looking for natural products, Limoneira should be at the top of your must try list. I am traditionally allergic to lemons. A glass of lemonade will break me out like you won't believe! But I found both the soap and the body butter to be incredibly soothing. No itching or breakouts here- the soap has a hearty earthy scent while the lotion goes on the skin cool and refreshingly. I. Am. In. Love.

For those of you that not only care about a product being natural but also about how it is produced, you should also look into Lumineira. They are producing products as sustainably as possible, employing smart water management and solar energy on their grounds. Want to learn more? Visit Limoneria.com for more info.
