Collaboration With Loree Bloom
Here is an excerpt from her most recent blog on Natural Skincare "My curiosity for natural skincare started when I discovered that most of our face scrubs contained plastic microbeads and were causing havoc to our environment and marine life. This realisation made me sick to my core. Which got me thinking, we as consumers, don't always read labels and understand what each product contains before placing it on our skin. It seems unnecessary, and I admit, I'm well and truly guilty of this, but we need to pay more attention. A point that we all need to remember is that much of what we put on our skin will be absorbed into our bloodstream.
Now, that's food for thought. I found the switch to natural skincare to be both overwhelming and underwhelming at times. Vast as, in Priceline or Sephora, you'll see "natural" and "organic" slash across numerous products on every corner stand. There are so many products to try, so many labels to understand, who can understand ingredients anyway?
Underwhelming as most of these tend to have minimal packaging and the scent is never as "good" as the other stuff. I've been blinded by the pretty packaging and rose scented creams that anything less, doesn't interest me. It took me a while to accept that the amazing smell of roses in my night cream was made artificially and isn't all roses and rainbows after all. I grew to love the more herbal and earthy scents that natural products tend to draw."
