| Raw Skin Ceuticals Body Lotion |
In May I attended the Dallas Women’s Expo. There were lots of vendors for skin care
products, but the one I’m reviewing today really stood out because they offer
both skin care products and cosmetics that are 100 % natural and vegan.
Owner and founder of Raw Skin Ceuticals, Sarah Johnson is a
cancer survivor and was passionate about finding healthier products. She founded the company with her husband
Dane.
Their mission as stated in their literature is to bridge the gap between perception of
mainstream skin care and cosmetics and the reality of true skin nutrition.
Their goal is to provide nutritionally balanced skin care treatments to combat
common skin problems including acne, rosacea, eczema, aging skin, dehydration,
oily skin and much more from infants to seniors, including pets.
Bringing together skin
solutions found in traditional “herbal apothecaries” combined with the appeal
and demand for “Mainstream skin care and cosmetics” to provide the most pure
and balanced nutrition for your skin. Each RawSkinCeutical formula is a balance
of triple infused raw herbs, raw unrefined oils and butters in propriety herb
and aloe tea blends.
I got to meet Sarah and test several of the products at the
show. I have been using the blush and
foundation since May and the products are great. Sarah helped me pick out two cream blushes
that were good for my coloring. She can work from pictures and will send
samples for you to try before you purchase.
I also purchased two body lotions; Calming (vanilla) and
Energizing (lemon grass) which I have been using since May. Both easily absorb into the skin and are
wonderful products. They are priced at $15.00
I have been making many of my own skin care products in an
effort to be as mindful about what goes on my body as I am about what I put in
my body.
The company’s products are:
·
Gluten free
·
Cruelty free
·
Vegan
·
Fair trade certified.
The 100 % raw vegan line is comprised of a complex blend of
raw oils, herbs and butters that are not prepared above 140 degrees to preserve
the integrity and nutrition to achieve balance for your skin.

They have and outdoor line that includes sunblock’s of SPF
45 and bug spray that I want to try.
Their line of pet products includes shampoo, bug spray and bug ointment
for pets.
If you are an athlete, they have a line of products such as:
·
Sport breakout and bacteria control lotion
·
Cooling aloe spritz
·
Sport face and body scrub
·
Sport intense hydration body salve
·
Sport renew and soothe body lotion
·
Sport sore muscle relief
They have a full line of products for men and babies as
well. There is fall sale right now and
first time members can sign up and get 20% off. Sarah promised me not to fill
up my mail box with spam. I can say that is true because I think I have only
gotten one e-mail from them.
I make my own soap and lotions, but it is nice to have a
site for cosmetics. I also like having the option to buy rather than make my
own skin care products. Give their site a try; I’ve been very happy with the
quality and cost of RawSkinCeuticals products.
