This product smells good, feels good on the skin and does a great job of exfoliating.  However, side note, do not let this product get around your eyes and be sure to wipe off with a washcloth.  If a piece of this gets in your eye it hurts so bad!  I’ve used man exfoliating washes but this one has got in my eye multiple times so I know I must get out a washcloth if I’m going to use it.

Downside: This deodorant does not cut it.  The product is very wet.  It never seems to get the chance to dry.  Also, the fragrance wears off with in hours and your B.O. can seep through. The smell so SOOOooOoOO good, though.  I did look up this product and noticed they have lotions and perfumes in this brand that I would be interested in buying.

My parents first started using this about 5 years ago.  It took me a while to get used to it.  The taste is very different than any other toothpaste I’ve ever used before.  But after years of using it when I come home to visit and them sending it back to college in care packages I came to really love this toothpaste.  It’s fluoride free and cleans well.

Great toner that uses papaya to firm and the sent is captivating.  Highly recommend to use as a moisturizer when you feel a cream or oil would be too heavy and your skin needs a break.   It can also be used as a prep before make up, or if you just need a little pick me up :)

Azadirachtaindica (neem) aqueous extract, carica papaya (papaya) leaf extract, cocos nucifera (coconut) water*, glycerin, phenoxyethanol, cocos nucifera (coconut) aromatic extract, potassium sorbate, lavandula hybrida oil, ascobic acid.

This is my 2nd favorite natural deodorant that I’ve ever tried.  And I’ve tried a ton.  A couple rules that I’ve found you have to follow with crystal are as follows: 1.you need to use a clean wash cloth in the shower or just make sure you was your pits extremely well.  2. Apply right after drying off.  This prevents any bacteria to build up and it can happen in less than a half hour.  If you are going to have a busy day apply let dry and apply again.   Here are the ingredients for those that are picky like myself :) 

 Propanediol, Water/Aqua, Polyglyceryl-10 Caprylate/Caprate, Stearic Acid, Ethylhexlglycerin, Sodium Bicarbonate, Sodium Hydroxide, Citric Acid, Hydroxycitronellal, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis Peel Extract, Mimosa Tenuiflora Leaf Extract, Viola Odorata Flower/Leaf Extract, Nelumbo Nucifera (Lotus Blossom), Cymbopogon Martini Oil, Fragrance (parfum)* (*Natural fragrance made with essential oils and extracts)

My vision is to make this tumblr account my organic/natural product review page.  I’m very picky with my products and even if buy something I love, eventually I’ll venture out to find something else that is magical (or not).  I try all the products first so you don’t have to!
