It started off slowly with me switching over to a natural deodorant at first. But now I’ve fully submerged myself – and my entire family – into the world of au natural! I’ve got paraben free, sulfate free, cruelty free products all around my bathroom, and even Joe now (reluctantly) wears all natural deodorant.
I say reluctant because he gave me an eye roll when I threw out the 4 Costco antiperspirants he purchased last month but I mean, health. Also, his mom is a breast cancer survivor, which to me means everyone in our entire merged family should jump on this bandwagon. It’s really hard to find ‘natural’ products that ACTUALLY work so today I’m sharing with you my tried, tested, and approved list of skincare, body care, and hair care products that I currently have on repeat this summer. Here’s my natural and cruelty-free beauty routine and I can’t be held responsible when you too become obsessed.
I dumped out my skincare dufffffel and here goes:
OSEA – a natural, vegan, organic, non-toxic, family owned brand that’s been giving me life since I first discovered their Atmosphere Protection Cream. It protects your skin from pollution, the weather, and sets your face up for success. Yes you read that right, welcome to the new power suit, yo face. Here’s the breakdown babes: cleanse, tone, refresh, protect. Their Ocean Cleanser is super gentle, it’s an organic seaweed gel and it exfoliates and hydrates your skin all at once. When you’re done un-dulling your skin, hit it with a few spritzes of the Sea Vitamin Boost! It’s rich in antioxidants, locks in moisture, and is perfect to tote around for mid-day pick me ups. My absolute favorites especially during this warmer weather!
Mario Badescu – cleansing lotion that smells like cucumbers, I love swabbing this over my face with a cotton round after I’ve washed my face. It removes any residue makeup and isn’t drying at all.
Color Lover – primer 11 is a leave-in treatment that is free of sulfates and parabens, it strengthens and moisturizes your hair. If you’re like me and you color and curl all the time, you’ll love this and it smells great.
PUR – hydrafluid I love for these warmer months because it’s a sheer, lightweight tinted moisturizer that is buildable enough that you don’t have to wear another foundation over it. It’s for my more dry skinned readers out there as it’s a bit oily and leaves your skin looking dewy and fresh.
Nip Fab – hydrate hyaluronic acid shot can be combined with any moisturizer to to give you an extra boost of hydration. I add one drop to my 2 pumps of OSEA atmosphere protection cream each morning and my skin looks low 20’s and not mid 30’s lol
Native – all natural aluminum free deodorant! Back at it again with this product because I won’t stop until you’ve all converted! We’re supposed to sweat, we’re human baby. This one featured is their Grapefruit and Bergamont scented deodorant and I almoooost love it even MORE than the coconut vanilla . . . almost 😉 It’s so good!
And all things Coola – I’m a loyal daily consumer of these 3 products right here. The usual suspects, they’re mineral based, they don’t feel thick, greasy, or heavy, and they hydrate and protect your face and body. Not to mention, they smell like a tropical getaway. Do ittt, ahem GUAVA MANGO, you won’t regret anything from this line. It’s my final line of defense in my daily beauty routine, right before I apply primer and foundation. I’ll never go back to using store bought SPF ever.ever.never.again.
There you have it friends! My updated beauty routine! I’d never suggest a product to you that I myself don’t use and trust, so I hope you give some of these a try and let me know what you think!
Are there any all natural products that you’re currently obsessing over?
Hi cutie! Thanks for this publish. I’ve been on a craze looking for the “right” products for my aging asian complexion myself lol. I’m only early 20’s but my skin says otherwise! The order in which they’re listed on the blog — are they the order in which you apply as well? I’ve never been big on skin regimens until recently, so I’m still working out the kinks on which products go on my face first! Lol. Thanks for everything you are and all you do! Xoxo, a fan<3
Hi love! I’m glad you found this post since these are my go-to! The order is cleanse, tone, hydrate, protect, eye cream and lip hydration. Don’t forget to exfoliate, I worked up to 3x a week with my clarasonic but everyone’s skin is different. Try a few things out first until you’re comfortable with a full out skin regimen and then go all in like I do haha xoxoxo
Another awesome skincare post! I love all of your product recommendations. What products are you using for your eyes right now? Or what are your long time favorites/go to eye products? Xoxo
Thank you so much! Happy you love these beauty posts <3 For eyes right now I love Fresh's soy milk cleanser as it's gentle on your eye area, hydrating, and conditions your lashes. For eye cream I'm still using my coveted shiseido benefiance eye cream. I use castor oil every.single.night. on my lashes to make them long and healthy and that's it! Let me know if you try them out xoxo
