I had a phone consultation with a client Tuesday morning and she wanted to know what natural skin and body care products would be good to use. I encounter many people who eat organic and clean foods but neglect using natural products on their skin!! Here are a few of my top picks: (when I don't have time make my own)
Skin Care Line- Andalou Naturals (I just started using the new 1000 roses line 4 days ago and already can see the difference in my skin!)
Facial Serum- Herbal Face Food
Nail Polish- Mineral Fusion
Makeup- Zuzu, Hemp Organics Lipstick, Lotus Mascara
Facial Scrub- Derma E Microdermabrasion Scrub
Makeup Remover-Coconut oil!
Hair Care Products- Andalou Naturals
Body Wash-Andalou Naturals Mandarin Vanilla Shower Gel
Deodorant-Crystal
Lotion-Andalou Naturals Kukui Cocoa Body Butter
Sunscreen- Badger (lavender)
Toothpaste- Eco-Dent ExtraBrite Tooth Powder
Perfume- any essential oil!

As I stood in line at Menards yesterday to get some paint matched for my dresser I saw these sitting on the counter: A new Glade scent to add to paint to improve the smell.
I do not understand why they sell an artificial toxic scent to mask the smell of toxic chemicals in paint? It’s adding more toxins to an already toxic substance. They DO make chemical free paint. You just have to seek it out or ask for it! We used no VOC paint throughout our house in Brooklyn Park when I was married. No smell and it didn't sting my eyes or give me a headache! Always search out the more natural option whether it be skin care products, cleaning products, or anything else! Vote with your dollar- the more natural and organic products you buy, the more they will produce! They may cost more money from the start but you are investing in your health and the environment!
Here are a few non-toxic and eco-friendly paint brands:
Safecoat
Yolo
EcoTrend
Benjamin Moore Natura
Marston & Langinger
Mythic Paint
Devine
Green Planet Paints
