An 'essential' for my skincare
I am loving Essential Smooth! You can smell the all natural ingredients they make it with. A bit of aroma-therapy action while you're replenishing your face with those healthy and vitamin-rich essential oils that get stripped from you after a good cleanse. It truly feels like a refreshing drink for your skin as you massage it in. And a little bit goes a long way. I figured that out pretty quickly. You don't really need more than one pump on your finger tips...maybe two if you want to extend it down your neck using the excess to moisturize your hands. And don't worry - that orange, Oompa-Loompa look goes away real quick as you massage it into your pores! I read a review somewhere that says each bottle may have a slightly different hue and that's down to the harvest each batch gets made from - how cool is that! Mother Nature has every color for every season!<br />I can't wait to try Essential Repair which I've read is an over-night cream with soothing but intense regenerative properties.<br />It's nice to find a company that has a conscience about what it's mass-producing. Essential makes only Eco-Certified and Cruelty-Free skincare which is more rare than it should be these days. It's hard to avoid placing your carbon footsteps everyday but this is one small way to be environmentally conscious and gives me such peace of mind.<br />They've also created a neat community of like-minded people over at their Blog and their Facebook. Some really neat articles they're posting about general health and wellness.<br />[...]<br />All aboard the Essential-Train. I'm a happy convert, for sure!  =)
