Skincare
I am looking for a new skincare and makeup line that is eco friendly. I have looked at alba, physicians formula and origins. Origins is a bit expensive. What do you use?
Re: Skincare
I really don't use much on my face. I started using Bare Escentuals a few years ago before I cared about being eco-friendly, and haven't run out so I can't help with makeup. Just about a month ago I decided to start being nice to my face, so I'm in the process of trying moisturizer and eye stuff before moving onto a night wrinkle cream thing.
Up until a month ago, I was using Alba's Green Tea & Aloe moisturizer. But, I wanted something with SPF protection. I was able to get a sample of Devita's Solar Protective Moisturizer and of Juice's Tinted Moisturizer. I used the Devita first and fell in love. To be fair, I tried my Juice sample when I ran out of the Devita; I've been using it for 3 days and my face is SO broken out with cystic acne that hurts so I'm definitely going back to the Devita.
I loved the Devita moisturizer so much that I decided to try their Under Eye Repair Serum. Unfortunately, I don't love it. It doesn't smell very nice, it pumps out of the bottle weird and I keep squirting some on the counter or floor and it's expensive! So I'll try something else next time.
