What do you use on your face?

If you've been reading my blog you know I gave up facial skin care chemicals over a year ago. It's been interesting exploring all natural products that are free of chemicals for my facial skin care. Apparently I've found a combination that works. Recently I've had quite a few people comment on my skin and ask me what I'm using. So I thought I'd do a quick blurb to give everybody some natural skin care options. Here's the low down:

For cleansing I'm using my new face soap that is now available on the webstore. I have one at my sink and one in the shower. And since I've been crossing paths with people interested in a shampoo bar, I tried the face soap on my hair and it works great. The jojoba in the face soap is known to be a great ingredient for hair products.

Next I use a moisturizer. I've been doing a lot of experimenting on this front. I think my top pick is the Organic Pomegranate Seed Oil I purchased from Mountain Rose Herbs. Of course I'm out of it right now and so is the supplier. And in the case of this oil there's a hugely noticeable difference between the organic and the non-organic. And since they're the only supplier I've found so far, I'm going to have to wait for them to restock. Of course, this is the star ingredient in my Pomegranate Face Soap. I like it straight as a moisturizer. Yes it's oily and it has an interesting fruity/nutty aroma which I don't actually like. But I put a little dab on my cheeks and within five minutes the oil has been absorbed leaving my skin soft and supple. I absolutely love it! I feel like my skin looks a little brighter too. But if this approach seems a little too au naterelle, my second choice is the Creme de Rose moisturizer from Simply Divine Botanicals. I've also tried their Skincredible Face Elixer which is very soothing. And I absolutely can't live without their deodorant. First chemical free deodorant I've found that actually works. Yeah!
