Edens Garden | Natural Bar Soap: Review
I've been a liquid body wash girl for as long as I can remember and it wasn't until Lush released its Naked Shower Gels back in December 2017 did I start using solid cleansers. So when Edens Garden, a Californian essential oil company released a line of cruelty-free, vegan soaps infused with 100% pure essential oil, I was pretty excited to try them as I really enjoyed their essential oil Synergy Blends (reviewed here). Cold-processed and handmade in California, the Natural Bar Soaps ($14.17 CAD for 125g each) are currently available in five varieties. I've got the lowdown of each to share with you today so to read on, click......

Drunk Elephant | Beste No. 9 Jelly Cleanser, JuJu Bar & Pekee Bar: Review

Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links and the products featured were provided for review.
Drunk Elephant | Beste No. 9 Jelly Cleanser, JuJu Bar & Pekee Bar: Review
Founded in 2014, Drunk Elephant is a Texas-based skincare company that I'm sure you've already heard by now. Wildly popular and much buzzed about on social media, the brand boasts a solid portfolio of everyday skincare products that utilize only clean ingredients proven to be safe and beneficial for the skin. Free of what the brand refers to as the "suspicious 6" (silicones, chemical sunscreens, sensitizing colorants/perfumes, SLS, essential oils, and drying alcohols) along with a list of other "blacklisted" ingredients (see here), Drunk Elephant believes that less is more and "natural" doesn't always mean good. I've been testing out some key products from the brand and today I have a breakdown of all three cleansers available for purchase. So to read my review of the Beste No. 9 Jelly Cleanser, the JuJu Bar, and the Pekee Bar, click.....

Lush Movis Facial Soap: Review

Disclaimer: This product was purchased by me.
Lush is definitely a daring innovator when it comes to skincare and bath products. So when I saw the Movis Facial Soap ($9.95 CAD), a strange face cleanser shaped like a slice of whole wheat bread, I knew I had to give it a try. Made with actual wholemeal bread, coconut oil, sugar, sunflower oil, wheatgerm oil, wheat bran, wheat germ, and cocoa butter, Movis promises to gently exfoliate and nourish the skin.
