I had a freind bring me home a bottle from Tahiti this year and this stuff is amazing. Put a few drops in your bath to soften your skin, use it as a tanning oil. The Tahitian women are known for their beautiful hair and skin and this is why. It doesn't take much either. I rub some into my hair, which is very long and braid it before going to bed. I then wash it out the next morning. My hair has never looked better and it is very damaged. I also do periodic heat treatments on my hair with it. Amazon has the best prices I have found for the product after doing extensive searches on the internet for simular products. There are a variety of products and fragances, bar soap, shampoo, etc. Try it , You'll love it.

Dr. Woods, Pure Black Soap, 32 fl oz (944 ml)

Dr. Woods, Pure Black Soap, 32 fl oz (944 ml)

This soap smells yummy, leaves your body very clean and moisturized. I don't need to use lotion after showering with this soap. It's good for both your body and your face, I sometimes skip my facial moisturizer when I cleanse my face with this. Also the scent isn't too girly, it's refreshing.


I highly recommend this product as your everyday shampoo, face wash, and/or body wash. It is natural and gentle to your skin and hair. I personally like the smell of the product; I find it much better than most products containing chemicals and perfumes (which definitely cannot be good for us). This is NOT a product designed to fix all skin problems; although, it may be good for some. It is just an all-around good product for everyday use.

I complimented a friend on her beautiful skin and she told me about this product she has been using for years. I bought and tried it and love it. It is oily when you first put it on for only a couple of minutes, but then it soaks in and your skin is soft and lovely. I heartily recommend it. I've become a permanent user.

Himalayan Institute, Neti Wash, Ceramic Neti Pot

Himalayan Institute, Neti Wash, Ceramic Neti Pot

I love this product. It really works. It does take some getting used to. When you use it, make sure when you bend at the waist you keep your head as parallel to the floor as possible. Although it is tempting, try not to look at yourself in the mirror as you use it. After you get the hang of it, then you can take a look in the mirror. So- when you bend at the waist, keep your head as parallel to the floor as possible, slightly turn your head to the side, put Neti Pot to your nostril, and pour. For the first moment, it does feel like water is going up your nose (not pleasant), but if you pour the water quickly this feeling is minimized. Once the water starts running out the other nostril, it feels ok, even pleasant. Believe me, the benefits outweigh the initial discomfort of getting used to the Neti Pot. Your nasal passages will feel really clean and if you have a scratchy throat from too much mucus, the Neti Pot will take care of this. At least, for me it did. I like using it at least once a week, if I had the time I would use it more. I make my own saline solution using 1 teaspoon kosher salt to 2 cups warm water, and it seems fine. (I do not have chronic nasal allergies, I get a seasonal allergy every so often, and sometimes I react to excessive dust or pollen.)

Rainbow Light, Just Once, Prenatal One, Food-Based Multivitamin, 90 Tablets


Rainbow Light, Just Once, Prenatal One, Food-Based Multivitamin, 90 Tablets




This is my first time taking a prenatal vitamin, so I have nothing to compare my experience to...but I have to say that I love these vitamins! I spent a lot of time reading reviews for different brands/types of prenatal vitamins, before deciding on these. I love the fact that they're all natural, & made from actual food/plants rather than synthetics. And I love the fact that they haven't added any unnecessary dyes, or artificial ingredients, etc. From my research, this prenatal vitamin seems to have just about all of the nutrients that you'll need to have: before, during, and after pregnancy, (while breast feeding). Except that you'll have to get extra Calcium from another source, and if you really want to play it safe you can always increase your iron intake...but these are minor details. I think that the price is great...even if they are a little more expensive than some of the other prenatal vitamins, they are worth it for the quality, & can you really put a price on having a healthy baby? :) I have been taking these vitamins for a month now, and I haven't suffered from ANY side-effects, at all. Nor have I noticed an after-taste, or any other kind of adverse side effect. They haven't given me heartburn. And they don't cause me to feel sick, or nauseous...which I was worried about, since a lot of women complain that prenatal vitamins *in general* make them feel nauseous. But I haven't had any problems, what-so-ever. And these vitamins contain natural ingredients that will actually help with your morning sickness...so that's a bonus! :) They are a little on the large side, but with all of the healthy nutrients packed into them, I don't really see that as being a bad thing! Plus, as far as I can tell...most prenatal vitamins are large, unless you're taking multiple smaller doses each day. If that's what you're looking for...Rainbow Light has another prenatal vitamin that you can take 6 times a day, & they are smaller. But I haven't had any trouble swallowing these. Some people have mentioned that they have an easier time taking them with Orange Juice, but I haven't had a problem taking them, with whatever I happen to be drinking at the time. And I've taken them with & without food, so that hasn't been an issue either...they don't make me feel sick, either way. They also don't prevent me from sleeping, & the bottom line is that I would highly recommend these, since they have made the whole experience a positive one for me! On a side note, my husband has been taking the Men's One a Day multi-vitamins, also by Rainbow Light, ever since we decided to conceive...since they promote a healthy reproductive system in men. They're a lot smaller than the prenatal vitamins, obviously...& he also hasn't suffered from any side effects. So I would recommend those as well, for those of you who are planning on conceiving anytime in the near future!

Crown Prince Natural, Naturally Smoked Oysters in Pure Olive Oil, 3 oz (85 g)








This thing here is full of nutritional goodness (google for its nutritional profile, minerals: it's simply great, a saver: a lot of zinc, for example: there's nothing else quite like that). And then, usually the stuff that's healthful tastes awful -- but smoked oysters are very tasty, and in addition, this kind comes in olive oil, that's also healthful). A can holds one serving and is perfect for lunch (has 0.45 gram of Omega-3s too -- less than sardines and about an average amount in a can of tuna). Also, while Crown Prince sardines come in armoured tins that can't be opened by simple mortals, oysters, for some reason, come in very manageable tins. It's clear five stars we've got here.

Natural Styles, 100% Pure Tamanu Oil, 1 fl oz (30 ml)

Natural Styles, 100% Pure Tamanu Oil, 1 fl oz (30 ml)

Description
100% Pure
Natural
Tamanu Oil, also known as Kamani, is known throughout Polynesia as the "sacred oil." Tamanu Oil has been used by native islanders for centuries and is treasured for its natural ability to treat a wide variety of skin conditions. Tamanu Oil is a natural antibiotic, it destroys most bacteria and helps regenerate healthy new skin tissue.
Natural Styles Tamanu Oil is cold pressed, and 100% pure & natural the way nature intended.


I listen watch the Dr. Oz show from time to time and learn many interesting and helpful solutions to every day problems with health, eating, lossing weight, etc. During the time that I learned about Pure Tamanu Oil, my facial skin had become very rough and scaly for no aparent reason. I did the same routine every day and 2 days a week sat in the gym's sauna. I purchased the oil, it arrived quicker than I thought and I have been using it on a daily basis. Within a few weeks I noticed a change. I continued to use my toner, and moisturer but I would incorporate Tamanu Oil with it. My face feel wonderful! I don't know why it got the way it was but I am glad I learned about this oil. It also has many other benefits and for best results per person, please do research. You learn more that what is said in an hour show, or page long article. Research is the key to better health!

Weleda, Baby, Baby Starter Kit, 5 Piece Kit





This baby travel kit is awesome. Not only is it paraben and phthalate-free (these chemicals have been linked to reproductive disorders and cancer), but the scent and design are great. The items are very small though, so you might want to take note of that. I was expecting slightly larger items, but oh well. It was a good price for what I got and I would definitely recommend this to any parents looking for their new favorite baby products or as a baby shower gift (hopefully not the only gift though since it is so small). I really do love the scent the most!

Description:
*High Potency
*DHEA Metabolite
*Clinically Studied
*Vegetarian Formula
*Awarded 5 US Patents
*A Dietary Supplement
7-Keto (a trade name for 3-acetyl-7-oxo dehydroepiandrosterone or 7-oxo-DHEA) is a substance found naturally in the body and is primarily produced by the adrenal glands. 7-Keto is metabolized from DHEA, and similar to DHEA, 7-Keto levels have been known to decline with advancing age. However, unlike DHEA, 7-Keto does not convert to Estrogen or Testosterone. This lack of conversion with 7-Keto may be beneficial since overproduction of these two hormones can lead to unwanted side effects.

Suggested Use:
As a dietary supplement for adults, take one (1) vegetarian capsule two (2) times daily or as directed by a physician.

Giovanni, Hot Chocolate, Sugar Scrub, 9 oz (260 g)

Giovanni, Hot Chocolate, Sugar Scrub, 9 oz (260 g)

I love this scrub for how gently but effectively it exfoliates the skin. There is no irritation and it smells super delicious. It does not burn my skin like salt scrubs can if you have small cuts after shaving. The way it leaves my skin is none other than utterly smooth and the ingredients are a lot better than some of the others I've used. I don't prefer oily scrubs and this one is definitely more grainy. I have noticed that this scrub helps diminish the appearance blemishes , probably because it causes skin cells to turn over faster. This scrub makes the skin on my décolleté absolutely flawless and I hope the never stop making this stuff.

Giovanni, Nutrafix Hair Reconstructor, 6.8 fl oz (200 ml)






This stuff makes my hair nice and soft and shiny all over. The ends are as soft as the rest and don't look frizzy like they used to, but it has been years so the bad stuff has been chopped off and the new ends have remained healthy. I often get compliments on how shiny my hair is and I don't use any other styling products on my hair. The fragrance is very nice and natural, but also very faint. I don't smell it on myself at all, but I have received nice comments from people when I am hugged. It is a little thick, but not too much and it washes out easily. Plus, all the ingredients are safe and you can leave it on your hair over night for an intense conditioning (as directed on the bottle). I've only done this a few times, then wrapped my hair with plastic wrap and wore a beanie to bed. It still washes out easily and hair feels amazing. Again, I've been using this stuff for a long time and I don't remember if I saw results the first time I used it, but I have given bottles away to several people as gifts and everyone said they loved the stuff. While I think the actual conditioner is good stuff, I really don't like the bottle. It's rectangular which makes it a little difficult to squeeze out the last bits of conditioner out of the corners, but the bottle is semi-transparent so you can at least see what you're missing. I usually have to pop the top off and smack the bottle to get the stuff out or add water if I'm in a hurry. Giovanni needs to take some bottling tips from Heinz. I have tried the other Giovanni conditioners 50/50, Tea Tree, Smooth as Silk, Golden Wheat, and the magnetic one, but none worked to magically for me like this one. (I use this conditioner after shampooing with Giovanni's 50/50 or Tea Tree shampoos or I sometimes use a Avalon Biotin shampoo, but it seems to work great with any shampoo.)

As you loose weight and tone up the stretch marks wont be so visible. I even use this on my face. The smell will take some getting used too.If you're pregnant you may hate it, but each person is different. It may not affect you like it did to me. I had a sensitive nose before I was pregnant.

Reviva Labs, Vitamin E Stick, 1/8 oz (3.5 g)

I use under lipstick and/or lipliner every day and under eyes every evening. I've found this to be an excellent evening eye moisturizer or any time lip moisturizer. It's very easy and convenient to use .. I've noticed less wrinkles around my eyes (even after I wash my face in the morning). I love this product on my lips as well ... light, yet very effective, although I agree with previous post that it can be a little heavy under eyes for daytime ... someone with extremely dry skin under the eyes could benefit from it.

Most people don't know that Vitamin C actually breaks down the second it comes into contact with oxygen. Since this is not an air tight bottle any Vitamin C that is in it will not be active and will not give the benefits. However this is true of all topical products with Vitamin C in it.

I use the entire collection of Avalon's Vitamin C stuff and this is one of the products I will not go without. It is great to use after cleansing and leaves my skin feeling fresh. It has a great orange/citrus scent that is not at all perfumey or fake. It is also a great deal compared to what I have paid in the past for toners that are not nearly as good at removing the last layer of dirt and brightening up my complexion. To boot, I have dry skin and this stuff has never ever left my skin feeling taught or tight. Perfect stuff!

Avalon Organics, Vitamin C Refreshing Cleansing Gel, 8.5 fl oz


Avalon Organics, Vitamin C Refreshing Cleansing Gel, 8.5 fl oz


Ladies, if you're like me you are influenced by marketing no matter how hard you resist and also think that expensive is better (Kiehls, Lancome, etc). I have done some serious research (30's, beginning lines, olive skin, avoiding sun to stay young looking) about best ingredients. Can't beat retinol, apple stem cells (try Eclos, Mychelle) and Vitamin C (philosophy even markets vitamin C powder to add to all your creams, gels serums). I started buying cruelty free products ONLY about a year ago and was unhappy initially giving up some of my favorite brands and stumbled across this one day. I decided to try it - I use it (gel) with my Clairsonic and have to say it's amazing. I mean it's not botox in a bottle but it works well with clairsonic and makes my skin fresh and clean so that the toner soaked cotton ball is basically clean afterwards. I like it even better than clinique or origins and that's saying a lot. It's worth every penny. If you want to know more about cruelty free products (and I encourage this both for animals and the sake of your skin) try mybeautybunny.com, be nice to bunnies, or go to your local whole-foods for starters. If you wouldn't eat parabens or waxes why on earth would you clean your face or body with them? If this was 30.00 I'd pay it. Enjoy!

Avalon Organics, Vitamin C Renewal Facial Cream, 2 fl oz (56 ml)

Avalon Organics, Vitamin C Renewal Facial Cream, 2 fl oz (56 ml)

I absolutely love the Vitamin C renewal cream. I am on my second bottle now and i swear by it. It leaves my skin feeling "renewed" as it says it should. My skin just drinks it up- its a bit thick, but i dont seem to have a problem with it- it goes on smooth and wears well under makeup.

I was using some vitamin C serums which didn't provide any noticeable results, they were full of things I wasn't too happy to put on my face + their price was ... well, daylight robbery. I have insensitive combination skin, the only trouble is that it's prone to shining - but Avalon day cream solved this. Well, this serum is "something completely different" as Monthy Pythons would say: there is nothing to point at, but it's the first time that skin product gave me some noticeable results. Skin seems ... well, just better, sort of more alive. Besides, (not very dark) pigmentation I had for years gradually disappeared after a few months of using this serum. Smell is incredible nice, orange, natural, not overpowering (cream from the same line has even nicer one). Skin virtually drink it. For those who doesn't have dry skin and don't like SPF it can also substitute moisturiser, especially in summer. 50 ml is lasting long. Since my mother is pharmacist I gave her the list of ingredients and she says they are fantastic. When my husband smelt it on me he liked the smell so much that he tried it - and from that day he's stealing it on regular basis. He has dry, but not sensitive skin and adores it. After this serum I started to use other products of this line and I'm perfectly satisfied. I use much less products with better results than I used to. I'm amazed that this really nice, long lasting product with great ingredients, decent effectiveness & beautiful smell is so inexpensive. Probably because Avalon doesn't care about fancy bottles. I like such an attitude a lot.

This cream I LOVE. Mind you I've only had it four days, but in FOUR DAYS I've seen a dramatic improvement in my skin! About my skin? Blotchy from sun damage and acne scars. It's been horrible having to deal with all this after living 30+ years with great skin. Suddenly it all changed in my 30's and I was dealing with adult acne and then hyperpigmentation from skin over-exposure. Ugh. I hated wearing all that concealer and face make-up but had to! I also refused to spend hundreds if not thousands on laser treatments, etc. For me that was just submitting to being gouged by a greedy industry. So for the past few years I've tried various products promising this and that. None of them ever made a real difference...until this cream! Like I said: OMG. I am thrilled! And if this is what happens after only a few days I can't wait to see what happens over the coming weeks. My skin is brighter, the scars are diminshing and the texture is sublime! It truly feels like magic in a jar. If I'm dreaming, please don't wake me. Wow. Btw this cream did not sting me at all. I felt a minor sensation for about 10 seconds and then nothing. But that's just my experience. I know some people claim it does sting, so be very careful about not using this cream with open pores until you know your own skin sensitivities. I wish you all equal or better results!

Earth Science, Papaya-Glycolic, Gentle Skin Peel, 4 fl oz (118 ml)


Earth Science, Papaya-Glycolic, Gentle Skin Peel, 4 fl oz (118 ml)

i think i found this at whole foods after an exhaustive survey of all peels and discarding every one that had either alcohol or any ingredient i couldn't pronounce. the list of ingredients on the back of this tube are short, easy to understand: purified water, witch hazel extract, almond meal, potato starch, bentonite clay, apricot kernel oil, vegetable glycerine, kelp extract, cellulose gum, chamomile extract, papaya fruit extract, zinc oxide, glycolic acid, lactic acid, sage extract, lavender oil, allantoin, grapefruit seed extract, jasmine oil, sorbic acid, thyme oil, citric acid. the peel itself is oatmeal colored, very grainy and smells like it's going to work. it tingles a little, you only need to apply a thin layer so it's lasted me a long time, and you wipe it off after it gets hard (about five minutes). once you do, your skin feels baby smooth and completely clean. i'm definitely going to purchase other earth science products!

I have recently started using this once or twice a week. I put in on say early evening, then right before bed I wash it off and put Roc Retinol cream on my skin. This has helped with refinement of skin texture. Unless I used a scrub shortly before using this, I feel no tingling at all. At first I was worried that this would be too gentle for my skin but I do like it.

I actually saw this product at Whole's Food. I really needed a toner and thought maybe this would do the trick. Turns out to be a great buy. The toner is great because it doesn't burn my skin like other toners did in the past. My eyes doesn't get watery at all when I apply it on my face. When I was toning my face with drug store toners, or even department store toner like 'clinique', it really irritated my skin because all it did was burn me.I find this toner to be very gentle and since it's enriched with Vitamin A it helps with wrinkles and complexion correction. Another reason why I picked this product over the other ones is because it has aloe vera which is very soothing to the skin, and also because it has papaya extract. Papaya helps with brightening the skin and clarifies it quite well. This product has really good stuff that's somewhat natural... When I go through the list of some other toners I don't even know half of the chemicals they place in there. Anyways, at first I didn't feel any difference but the more I used it the more I realize how much my skin was loving it. It really does brighten up my complexion and made my skin feels really healthy. I can't say for sure that it helps with my oily skin but it really does feel really nice. On top of that it smell like flowers and I really results so far.

I was fortunate enough to be blessed with great skin: clear, creamy, poreless--the kind that's always getting compliments and warnings from older ladies to take care of and protect it. Took it for granted that it'd look amazing forever, ignored the advice, and when I turned 30 all those years of sunbathing and partying/social-smoking in my early 20's seemed to suddenly catch up with me. I'm 32 now and my skin just isn't so amazing anymore. Purchased this cream to add to my skin care regimen and have NOT been disappointed. Sometimes it stings slightly when applied, but I've been using it for 2 months and have noticed a DEFINITE improvement in my skin. It honestly doesn't seem to be doing much to help with pore reduction, but it's caused a significant improvement in my complexion. My skin feels 1000% smoother and softer and looks creamier and brighter now. Pairing this with a retinol cream has all but erased the lines on the sides of my mouth and around my eyes and greatly softened those on my forehead. I can get away with skipping my tinted moisturizer and looking good with a little concealer and some blush. After discovering this product, I don't want to live without it and HIGHLY recommend it.
