About this list:

Noxzema - Get the Glow

Description
I loved the Continuous Clean Citrus Scrub, but the operative word is clean - in that it is a really good cleanser, but if you are looking for a really grainy scrub this is not it. I love the smell- a real bust of orange/tangerine fragrance that was great first things in the morning and after the gym, and it does a good job cleansing. It's not overdrying, and my face feels very clean. This didn't cause any kind of breakout or clogged pores either. This is perfect for those of you who have more delicate, sensitve skin and want a very mild scrub. The soft tube packaging is great for the shower as well. (via Noxzema)

Jurlique Foaming Facial Cleanser for all skin types
First to recommend
Description
This is the best cleanser that I have ever used, also I’m very proud to support a natural Australian line as this is where I am from. The foaming formula was very gentle on my skin, rinsed away clean; and did not leave my skin super tight or dry, but helped with the oilies in my T-Zone. I also found that if I ever have a breakout popping up this helped take care of it immediately. It has a pleasant citrus scent from all natural botanical oils, good foaming and it doesn't irritate my skin.
So for natural product fans I would highly recommend this. My face felt soft and very clean and it looked very bright and radiant after continued use. I found that I only needed a small amount with each morning and evening wash, so it will last a very long time which is another plus. I’m now going to explore more from the Jurlique line to compliment this. I will not use any other cleanser now! (via Palacinka)

Clean & Clear Morning Burst Cleanser
First to recommend
Description
"Everyone has seen the commercials for this product I am sure. If you have and you have not purchased this hot item you are missing out. Not only does it do everything it says on the bottle but it actually makes you feel good. It has beads in it that lightly exfoliate your face in the morning. The best part of the orange sent. It’s wonderful, my boyfriend uses mine a lot and he likes it. I recommend for anyone that has a pimple or two, it cleans them up in a couple of days."

Peter Thomas Roth Oxygen Detoxifying Masque
First to recommend
Description
didn’t think I could fall in love with a mask – but I did. This Roth Oxygen mask didn’t irritate my occasionally sensitive skin and left it so soft and glowing!
I used this moisturizing gel-cream mask about 3-4 times a week and I was extremely pleased with this product. What was even more remarkable is that since using this mask, my breakouts are gone; my face GLOWS every day, and did I mention how soft it is?
It should be noted that there is a tingling sensation (non painful or irritating) when this mask is at work, but it does not dry to a very hard consistency like a clay mask. After rinsing I could immediately see and feel that it had tightened up my pores and cleared out the blackhead on my nose.
I am now very excited to try more from the Roth line. My skin has never felt and looked any better! (via amazon)

Juice Beauty Green Apple Nutrient Mask

Description
I used this mask 3x weekly as a moisturizing treatment. I was initially expecting something really thick, but was surprised to find a thin green liquid with the signature 'Juice organic' smell.
When I applied it on my face, my skin didn't feel tight at all and actually felt very nice and soft even before taking it off. The mask began to tingle after a few minutes but wasn't painful at all. This has a fruit acid complex and juice derivatives that really helped in conjunction with the serum*(see review above) to brighten my skin.
After rinsing the mask off my skin was glowing and soft! Discoloration and dullness gone and bright clear skin left. It also did not break me out, which was great!" (via Palacinka)

Skin Yogurt Duo Cleanser and Moisturizer Set
First to recommend
2 people recommended this item
Description
My first word about this fantastic Organic duo has to be YUMMM…When I opened the cleanser in a cute rendition of an actual sized yogurt container; I could not believe how lusciously cherry the product smelled! I couldn’t wait to scoop up the yogurt- textured cleanser and apply to my face…it lathered nicely with a small amount and provided a complete yet gentle cleansing, also removing my makeup quite well. enjoyed the scent, texture, the ingredients that it is made from and the creative packaging.
The moisturizer also has that super yummy cherry scent, but is much thinner in texture than the cleanser, so it quickly absorbed into my skin for great moisturization all day, and didn’t make me greasy or break me out. I am very pleased with these products, and for those of you who live an organic/vegan lifestyle, this is a wonderful product to introduce yourself to this line! (via Palacinka)

Aqua Dessa Honey Pomegranate Facial Cleanser
First to recommend
Description
I absolutely Love this facial cleanser, it's super mild and smells incredible. It takes off all my makeup too with just the tiniest amount. The fragrance is wonderful, it leaves the skin clean and smooth (not squeaky and tight, which I don't like). There is a light foam. Did I mention the fragrance? Fabulous! It's only flaw is in the product design - It's almost impossible to get a little out without it running down the side of the bottle. This needed to have a pump. It is too thin of a product, (no synthetic thickeners are added to this product), to put in a glass bottle with a little rubber dispenser on top, it all runs out. However, what I did was transfer it to a spray bottle and really liked applying it this way. Whether you live a strict vegetarian or organic lifestyle or not, Aqua Dessa is a fantastic skin care brand that deserves your attention (via Palacinka)

Trilogy Purifying Face Masque
First to recommend
Description
I'm very impressed with this product and this line (see my other Trilogy review below)! I love using masks because I think they're a great way to supplement skin care. I think they're also fantastic in helping your skin through rough patches. Like when it gets a little too dry, sensitive, etc. Well, this is one of those masks that can do that!
It's so rich and thick, you might think it was a moisturizing balm--but it's not! It contains quite a bit of clay in it, which is known to help absorb toxins and excess sebum. The mask contains some very simple ingredients: Water, kaolin, hectorite, pure rosehip oil, citric acid, rose geranium oil. It felt so soothing on my skin, it smells incredible and it's surprisingly gentle. This is a true winner all around. Also very much worth the price as a little goes a long way. (via Palacinka)

Korres Olive Stones Natural Face Scrub
First to recommend
Description
I LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT! Did I mention I love it? Advantages: 1. Makes my skin incredibly soft and exfoliates wonderfully!! 2. A slight smell of olives which I find soothing. 3. It comes in a tube which is so easy to squeeze & hygienic.
This is a must have product for me & will definitely continue to use!! What's great is, a little goes a really long way and if used as directed 1x this should last you a couple of months at least. The olive stone granules are quite large, but they are not at all harsh. For those of you with sensitive skin, not too worry because there is the perfect amount of oil in in so that it won't scratch or irritate most skins.
The first time I used it I actually said, "Wow!" while I was in the shower. My skin also felt lightly moisturized after. Also, it didn't make me shiny or give me dry patches like other scrubs I've tried." (via Palacinka)

Juice Beauty: Organic Green Apple Antioxidant Serum
First to recommend
2 people recommended this item
Description
This is my first time using products from the Juice line and I could not have been happier with the results! Just a tiny bit made my skin clear, glowing and smooth. It healed my acne scars and I get so many compliments on my complexion now.
I started seeing results from the first few days I began using it.Note: It's important not to use too much, as the serum can feel a little bit sticky if you do so. The proof was is the reaction from my husband- after about two weeks using this product along with the mask*(see review below) he said, your face looks so nice and healthy! In addition, there are no toxic chemicals, or cheap thickeners. Simply fabulous!" (via Palacinka)
