Boots for Earth Day beauty: Botanical Organic Rosewater Toning Spritz

 Hello fellow Earth Day celebrators!

Have you tried Boots yet? I love the brand and it's longevity as well! I love rosewater and this is a comfort to sunburned skin and great at removing the last traces of makeup after washing your face. Plus the pump makes it convenient to either spray on a cotton pad or directly to the face. Love it!

P.S. For my fellow Arizona gals: put this in the refrigerator for hot days when you need to refresh your skin quick!





Refresh and remove the last traces of make-up and surface grime with this gentle toner. Organic damask rosewater naturally cleanses without drying, leaving the skin smooth, supple and toned.

Apply to cotton wool and sweep over cleansed face and neck. Dermatologically tested. Colour may vary and product may appear hazy due to natural extract.

Ingredients:
Aqua (Water), Alcohol denat., Glycerin, Rosa damascena flower oil, Citronellol

S.O.A.P for Earth Day: Scented Organic Artisan Pure

Hello world! Happy Earth Day to all! God gave us such an amazing place to live with all it's beauty. I am so grateful for the goodness of God and the fabulous state of Arizona to live in! Earth Day adventures commence now with a new brand I just met called  S.O.A.P. Scented Organic Artisan Pure 

What I like about this brand is that it is reviving the old world tradition of hand crafting and creating products in a niche market. Which is a good thing. The company has sustainable practices and organic products meaning you can feel good about what you are putting on your skin and better yet, what's not going on!

	A soft and sensual mélange of apricot and sunflower oils, warm vanilla and sweet brown sugar.  This delectable bath syrup is 100% natural and amazingly moisturizing.  Can also be used as a light body oil. To use, pour several capfuls of this rich bath syrup into running bath water.  Then, submerse yourself in our special blend of skin softening oils for a relaxing and moisturizing bath experience. Each use will leave your body soft and moisturized with a luscious fragrance that will make you feel good all over.

Just $18.00 for a bottle to pour out luxury and relaxation on you!

S.O.A.P. sells handmade natural bath and body products.  The acronym S.O.A.P. stands for Scented, Organic, Artisan and Pure, which aptly describes our bath and body collections.  Our products are made in small batches by soap artisans and aromatherapists blending the finest essential oils and captivating fragrances.

6 Underground, Hipster-Worthy Beauty Products

These products are so cool, you've probably never even heard of them

This is a TotalBeauty.com Makeup article At this point, the label "hipster" has so many changing definitions and technicalities that you will probably qualify as one in some form eventually. But one thing most can agree on is a hipster's appreciation of underground things that aren't tarnished (yet) by being "mainstream" and loved by the masses. No, we'd never disapprove of a CoverGirl concealer or Rimmel mascara, but every now and then it's fun to embrace your inner hipster and get in on something others have yet to discover. Consider this one of those times. See products
