By Bridget Hudzik, Beauty Guru

 
I'm talking about shea butter, you silly goose! Where is your mind wandering...

Hazelwood Soap Company makes this super ah-mazing raw organic shea butter. A great treatment for the dry and damaged skin thes COLD weather conditions create!

Chapped lips, cracked hands and feet are no match for this stuff!
Even... scars, burns and even stretch marks. Its an amazing natural moisturiser well known for its skin healing properties.

A family owned business, Hazelwood Soap Company specializes in artisanal bath, body and home products utilizing natural ingredients and essential oils.

Products are hand-made in small batches, as their budget is not spent on costly advertising, but rather on quality oils, organic shea butter, and superior packaging. They are only a phone call or e-mail away to providing you with the benefits of aromatherapy.

A PURE Gift!

by Bridget Hudzik, Beauty Guru
This is an adorable holiday gift idea!
Not only is it's BASIC packaging adorable, it's BASIC "good for you" ingredients will say,"I love you, and your skin."
 
S. W. Basics (formerly known as Sprout) Full Mini Kit is made with nothing but the most PUREST of ingredients.
 
This means there's no need to pull out your Webster's to find out what's actually inside, and then being put all over your skin!
 
The Full Mini Kit includes travel-friendly sizes of everything you need for an all-natural, sustainable, weekend getaway: Cleanser, Toner, Cream, Exfoliant, and Body Scrub.
The products come housed in a Farragio cosmetics bag.
 
The Cleanser is gentle, non-drying, and contains no alcohol or soap - perfect for sensitive skin. It smells fantastic, and it's made with a traditional organic rosewater-and-glycerin base, and a tiny bit of organic tea tree oil.
 
Toner contains Raw apple cider vinegar, witch hazel, and essential oils of clary sage and sandalwood to neutralize pH, so your skin is less oily AND less dry.
 
The non-comedogenic Cream will not clog your pores. It contains wild-harvested shea butter, some organic extra-virgin coconut oil and organic extra-virgin olive oil. Perfect for face AND body.
 
Organic oats and almonds, combined with mineral-rich sea salt in their Exfoliant will leave your skin soft and glowing.
 
The last piece of the kit, Body Scrub - which is made with coarse organic demerara sugar and organic shredded coconut for exfoliation with some moisturizing organic coconut oil.
I kinda want to eat it!
All of the ingredients they use are either certified organic, Fair Trade, or sourced from small family farms.
They keep things holistic by preserving the integrity of their ingredients, keeping them as near to their whole, raw state as possible and making each product by hand simply, using only traditional methods.
They pride themselves on providing "no-frills skincare", using the fewest possible ingredients for effective skincare.
Fewer ingredients means higher potency and less of a chance for irritation, which is why their products are very effective even on super-sensitive skin.

Purely Organic 'Poo

By Bridget Hudzik, Beauty Guru
There's something about the word 'organic'. Makes me feel - healthy.
Like I'm doing something good for my body.
 
I color my hair - not-so-good for me body.
 
I found an amazing organic shampoo I can use to wash my colored hair safely - good for my body.
Renpure is an organic haircare line founded by the Redmond family.
They really are completely organic because they do not use any Sodium Laural Sulfate/Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Parabens (methyl, propyl, butyl, and ethyl), or Synthetic Colors and Dyes in their products.
 
There are several benefits of using organic hair care products: Better for the environment, better for personal health, better for hair health, and reducing chemical exposure.
 
They may not have super fancy packaging, but it's what's inside that counts.
"Don't judge a book by it's cover"

Looking Good, Feeling Good & Good for you!

By Bridget Hudzik, Beauty Guru


We see lush greenery all around us in the spring and summer, why not go green as well?

 After all, "Green Is Sexy"!

Humidity and heat do terrible things to our skin.
We break out underneath all the sweat and makeup, which requires us to wear more makeup, which then leads to more breakouts.

With a harmonizing blend of Safflower, Jojoba, and Castor oil, NVEY ECO Creme Deluxe Flawless Finish Foundation provides a high-definition, full-coverage finish.

This powder-to-cream formula does a great job covering up little bumps and blemishes. Wear it all day knowing that we look our best, without the mess.
Its base is formulated to soften the skin while antioxidants protect the skin from free radicals.

Natural earth colorants provide the skin with a pure color match.
NVEY ECO explodes the myth that going green reduces the performance and application of makeup, with the development of unique production methods that retain the organic profile, while delivering the high performance color and long lasting characteristics that NVEY is known for internationally.

Manufactured in Australia since 2005, NVEY ECO is made with the most natural organic ingredients to provide a great experience for you and the environment. No Talc is used in any NVEY ECO product.
No Parabens are used in the manufacture of any NVEY ECO product.
No SLS or derivatives of SLS chemicals are used and no Propylene Glycol is used in any of their products.
No ingredients are derived from genetically modified crops.
They do not test on animals...(only their obliging staff, and occasionally the CEO!)
No mineral or petroleum oils are used and NVEY ECO uses plant derived oils.
They do not use nano particle ingredients and are against this hazardous and potentially toxic technology.

AND......  They do offer an ECO-Pro Membership Program for all of your certified make-up professionals out there. SO PUT IT IN YOUR KIT!!!!!

With Love and Glamour
