Green People

Green People are back to Naturisimo! After a pause of over a year, Naturisimo is stocking the award-winning Green People organic skin care range again.

One of my favourites in this range is the Green People Gentle Skin Cleanser. A little goes a long way. What I look for in a cleanser is that it gets rid of the impurities and oils in my skin without drying it out too much; this cleanser did both of those. My skin felt clean and refreshed after using it. I did not notice any of its antiageing benefits but that is not what I look for when using a cleanser. This organic cleanser is fantastic value because is also a great eye make up remover. It doesn't sting at all and is not greasy.

I also used other Green People products. The perfect treatment to coloured or frequently blow-dried hair is the Green People Intensive Shampoo Repair Shampoo. It does give hair a boots and keeps it in great condition.

With such great products it is no surprise Green People just keeps winning awards. And nice to know you are putting pure stuff on your skin with no toxic chemicals! Green People products and Green People Samples are now available at Naturisimo.com.

Organic Skin Care

Organic skin care and organic personal care are not legally regulated in the same way as organic food and drink. Skincare and toiletries can be called organic and natural, even if they contain a tiny percentage of organically grown ingredients. The only way to be sure that the product you are using is genuinely organic is to use products that are 100% natural or certified organic by an independent organic body.

Organic skincare certified according to Soil Association organic standards which are among the strictest in the world for organic beauty products can be confidently used. Other organic certification bodies include Ecocert (France), BDHI (Germany) and USDA (USA). Few companies have achieved organic skin care certification status, companies such as Primavera, Sophyto and Trevarno.

The Soil Association's and other certificators organic standards are that beauty products should be ethical, chemical-free and as organic as possible. In particular, the Soil Association ensures that any products carrying its logo not only use organically grown ingredients where available, but also do not contain the toxic and harmful chemical substances that Naturisimo is strongly against.

Certain brands such as Alkaitis, Suki or Organic Apoteke are recommended because though not organic certified as such, they are 100% natural, contain organic certified ingredients and are entirely free of harmful chemicals. Why not visit Naturisimo.com today to discover an amazing collection of organic certified skin care and truly natural skin care brands?

All Borlind products are free of parabens, petrochemicals and toxic chemicals.

The Borlind natural concealer (£12.90) is one of my favourite products in this range. It is fragrance free and feels very light. It comes in a plastic tube with an applicator brush so is fantastically convenient to carry and apply. I am also impressed with the Borlind Antiageing Liquid Foundation (£14.95) because is it light but also covers well the slightly open pores in my T-zone without being cakey.

Lavera Volume Mascara

This week I put the Lavera Volume mascara to the test. The Lavera mascara gives a soft look and I like how easy it is to rinse off. There are many good reasons for choosing Lavera Volume mascara. It does not expose us or the environment to any (harsh) chemicals by using it, it can be washed off with hot water, skipping make-up removers, and it's suitable for vegans. My vain side just wishes it would give ashes a bit more volume, like the Suki Color Mascara. Lavera advises us to apply twice to create more volume and make it stick to our eyelashes for longer. I am aware though that by applying more is when natural mascara can run off a bit. Aside from this, I like Lavera organic ingredients, vegan credentials (no animal testing) and that it comes in an easily recyclable metal tube. Lavera cosmetics are available at Naturisimo The Organic Skincare Company.
