Natural Lotion: Eve Organics Finger Food

I’ve had this little bottle of natural lotion stashed in my purse for a while, and it’s been my go-to lotion at the office. After moisturizing my nails and cuticles with Badger, I slap on Eve Organics Finger Food for intense, all-over moisture. It keeps my hands soft and hydrated throughout the day.

Eve Organics Finger Food natural lotion is formulated with goat's milk, which soothes and moisturizes dry skin while delivering a silky smooth (but not greasy) finish. It boasts 86 percent organic content, including organic aloe juice, organic coconut oil and organic black willowbark. Eve Organics Finger Food has a faint lavender and tea tree scent (from the therapeutic grade essential oils) that is clean and fresh, but never overpowering (I tend to stay far away from lavender—it’s not my favorite—but there’s the perfect, light blend in this lotion). It’s a fantastic all-purpose natural lotion for all skin types.

For a small company started by two female entrepreneurs in 2007, Eve Organics sets the bar high for social and environmental responsibility. Eve Organics is another great green beauty company that is committed to listing ingredients on its packages and online, and is a signer of the Compact for Safe Cosmetics. Eve Organics’ commitment to using wholesome, good-for-you ingredients is tied directly into the company’s philosophy and mission. Eve Organics also donates 10 percent of its net profits to charities that support people or communities in need.

Eve Organics Finger food is available in two sizes: 4 ounces for $14.95 and 1 ounce for $4.95. Purchase products online—and if you purchase more than $75 worth of natural beauty products, shipping’s free.

Natural Lip Balm: Addicted to Lip Balm: Yes To Carrots C Me Smile Lip Butter

It’s a widely known fact that I’m a lip balm junkie. Right now, I have more than 10 lips balms in my desk drawer, probably three or four at the bottom of my purse and who knows how many in my bathroom at home. 

But if I’m going to be addicted to lip balm, at least I can feel better about being addicted to a USDA-certified organic lip balm. I constantly reapply Yes To Carrots C Me Smile Lip Butter in Citrus to my pucker every day. This 95 percent organic, all-natural lip balm is slippery, kissable and oh-so-good for you and for the planet. Its key ingredients are coconut and olive oils; beeswax; shea butter and vitamin E. Yes To Carrots lists all ingredients on both the packaging and on its website, so you’ll know exactly what’s going onto your lips and into your body. As with any USDA-certified organic natural beauty product (and all the products I review in this blog), Yes To Carrots C Me Smile Lip Butters are free of parabens, nasty petroleum byproducts and phthalates.

Made in the USA, Yes To Carrots C Me Smile Lip Butter is widely available at Walgreens, Duane Reade and Ulta (in the States) and is one of the most super-affordable organic lips balms I’ve ever reviewed: $3.79! Try it in five different, delicious flavors: berry, carrot, melon, citrus and mint. Yes To Carrots also makes fantastic natural lip tints and lip glosses; watch for those reviews soon!
