Re: face lotion-recommend yours!
if you saw my original post, you'll see that I am looking for new face lotion...I was using Earth Science but lately I haven't been in love with it as my skin is dry normally, and it's very apparent now. So...on that note: what's your favorite green face lotion? I have dry skin but can tend to break out around my chin area. Also...friendlier on the budget, please!

Re: Re: face lotion-recommend yours!
I just went through this with my face, so I feel like a pro now!
I used to use Alba's Green Tea & Aloe moisturizer. I used it for a few years and loved it. The only reason I switched is because I wanted something that had SPF protection in it.
I tried using Juice Beauty Mineral Moisturizer with SPF in it. I liked that it was tinted, but I hated the way it smelled. It also made my face look sun-blocky if I didn't wear makeup, and it made me break out. Whole Foods gave me a sample of it to try, FWIW.
Now I'm using Devita Daily Solar Protective Moisturizer. It smells yummy, it goes on great, doesn't make me break out, and doesn't make me look sunblocky if I don't want to wear makeup. New Season's carries it, and they have samples of it if you ask. A tiny sample size lasted me for two weeks. It is expensive, but it lasts a long time.
i have been using this from keys. it is great. a little goes a long way and it has an SPF 30. it is all natural and vegan.

I use Earth Science that I bought from Whole Foods.
I'm not sure what exactly you consider green, but it wasn't tested on animals and is paraben free.
i just started using this too. It's a little "herbally" smelling, but it goes away after a few minutes.
