Product Reviews!

  πŸ“· Photo by @naturalbeautymermaid
*Please note these are my thoughts and opinion on these products. Products work differently for others.

LILFOX Jungle Glow (received in a beauty heroes box) 3.4 oz jar glass ($75) This luxurious product was a dream to use. I was hesitant to try because I have sensitive skin but I'm so glad it did because it really exfoliates (a finely gritty texture) and left my skin glowing by clearing the build up of dry & dead skin cells. The Mel honey was soothing but also clarifying. Totally miss this beautiful product with gorgeous graphic pictures on the packaging. Would repurchase after my overload of the products is minimized.πŸ’•

May Lindstrom the honey mud 3.38 fl oz/ 100ml ($90) is a favorite. Moisturize, hydrate, clear up congestion. This product is universal for all skin types. I'm not going on because so many have reviewed it. Will be repurchasing!πŸ’•

Agent Nateur Deodorants Original holi (stick) & holi(man) are my favorites with the holi(rose) too. I'm not going to go on and on about these but they are a personal love. The strongest smelling one is holi(stick) then holi(rose) then holi(man) in my opinion. Will repurchase!πŸ’•

Fitglow Beauty Vita-Active Mineral Foundation, my thoughts are in my older post. Link here Fitglow Foundation


Coola Sun Production Sport SPF 30 3 fl oz ($36)  & Coola Mineral LipLux SPF 30 .15oz ($18) They are lovely products,  I love the smell of them plus some organic ingredients with mineral ingredients. The Sport sunscreen is blendable, clean, and not greasy like others can be.  The Liplux SPF 30 is great color pigmentation but if you don't like the smell or taste of sun protection, you might not like it.   Will repurchase! πŸ’•




AuNaturale Cosmetics su/Stain Lip Stain 3.8 grams ($25) This product is the closest to lip stains in a natural beauty. It's creamy, goes on easy, fruity smell. Hope they come out with more color especially pinks & nudes. Will repurchase πŸ’•



 Weleda Skin Food travel size 0.34 fl oz ($3.50) This product comes in a metal tube. Little goes a long way. Gives your skin a highlight, hydrates, smooths. moisturizes, and healthy look. For a quick purchase for moisturizing it works. Maybe repurchase.





Vapour Beauty Siren Lipsticks & Kari Gran Lip Whips are known as my loves. More on them later blog post! πŸ’•πŸ’ž

Akar Ruby Lip Tint(received in Art of Organics box) I've been loving but still trying it out for my thoughts & opinions. 

ILIA Beauty Lip exfoliator still using but its really coarse, rough on my lips but still trying it out when used more will give my thoughts.

Thank for the Loves on Instagram & Support!

Please note I used up the product or gave it to someone else so I no longer have products for photos. I don't like to hold on to trash, sorry!

Detox Box!

The Detox Box came with Birchrose + Co. Cacao + Honey Antioxidant Mask ($32) which is to be detox skin & hydrate & balance the skin. I used it, not really feeling because my skin was already dry and my skin just got drier plus the smell was overwhelming to me but I kept trying it after my skin was more hydrated. I guess my skin wasn't feeling it.

*Rosehip - increases skin elasticity



Prim Botanicals Debauchery Detox Body Scrub ($24)  especially for dry, eczema but caution it is highly scented with essential oils and coarse salt. This product I really love but I'm very weary of a highly smelling product because it just screams my skins going to itch and dry out.  Soothes my very dry skin and helped my eczema and leaves you skin smelling like coffee with essential oil. Quite lovely smell.
Definitely a purchase I will make when I run out but maybe try the other one that prim botanicals have.
Some ingredients & what they do:

*Hawaiian Black Lava Salt - exfoliates
*Magnesium - increases skin elasticity
*Activated Charcoal - detoxifies

*jojoba oil - balances sebum
*aloe - heals
*calendula - soothes
*neem oil - repairs + fights aging

Limited Edition Tumeric Beauty Bar ($24) My skin really loved this hydrating, cleansing, soothing, and hydrating bar.
The smell of turmeric, so if you don't like the smell I wouldn't recommend it then. The smell didn't bother me. My skin just loved this bar. Please to note it is no longer limited edition due to being a loved product. πŸ’• Yes!!!
Some ingredients & what they do:
*Tumeric - brightens
*Olive Oil - restores
*Shea Butter - nourishes

Total Box Value ($70)

Splash Box

This box featured Akar Skin.

Desert Rescue face oil ($90) I have yet to try it. Smells okay but I have a lot of facial oils I need to use before I try this one.
Some of the ingredients & what they do:

*Baobab Oil - hydrates + nourishes
*Jojoba Oil - balances sebum
*Seabuckthorn Extract - healing
*Rosehip Seed Extract - anti-aging

*These products were sent to me for review.

Moon + Sea is an all natural beauty products for everyone!

Joanna created Moon + Sea because she learned about toxins in conventional products that go into your bloodstream. Her interest in natural beauty blossomed into learning, created these products.

The origin of Moon + Sea came from how she and her husband met. She loved the moon. He loved to surf the ocean (sea).The moon and sea are tied together with strong, unseen bonds-- gravity. The moon is able to pull the ocean towards it. A quite beautiful story, you can check out more of the story on the website that will be linked below. ~ Moon + Sea 

Moon + Sea Bangarang body scrub Lemon + Peppermint

Moon + Sea Bangarang body scrub in Lemon + Peppermint 4oz ($14)  Is to eliminate toxins and exfoliate to remove dead skin and to help body promote healthy skin cells. I was unsure if I was going to love the lemon + peppermint smell but it's quite lovely. The exfoliation is very gentle not too rough like some I've used. I will definitely purchase some more because I really enjoy it plus I'm savoring the last bit. It's like exfoliating with the beach at home.

** All Moon and Sea Products are packaged in glass containers to reduce waste and encourage recycling. They use colored glass specifically to prevent the oil from becoming rancid, sun-damaged, and seeping into plastic.**

All Buttered Up  Lotion Bar

All Buttered Up Lotion Bar 2oz ($8)  This bar is rich, creamy with the heat of the body. It's a quite lovely smell of lavender & chamomile.  Just melts into the skin and keeps my very dry skin hydrated all day and through the next morning. The calming smell of essential oils. Another one I will be purchasing. I will be trying more products by Moon + Sea.

Ingredients *Raw Organic Shea Butter, *Organic Virgin Coconut Oil, Beeswax, *Organic Lavender Flowers, *Organic Chamomile Flowers, **CPTG Lavender Essential Oil, Non-GMO Vitamin E Oil

Product Thoughts! Ilia, Lily Lolo, Fitglow Beauty, and One Love Organics.




πŸ“· Photos by @naturalbeautymermaid
Please note these are my thoughts & opinions.
* indicates giveaway 


 Starting from left to right

πŸ’•One Love Organics overall has good products for those that are starting in the green, natural, eco-friendly beauty for skincare.  Vitamin B Enzyme Cleansing Oil + Makeup Remover 4oz ($42) is one of my favorites because you get to remove makeup but with a gentle exfoliation. Will repurchase!http://shopstyle.it/l/htX3

One Love Organics Vitamin C Facial Serum 1 fl oz ($75) is okay but for me, it wasn't magical or life changing. This product is supposed to brighten dull skin and even tone on the skin. (Gentle on the skin) Not Repurchasing.https://api.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?id=625316999&pid=uid0-39845200-50

πŸ’•One Love Organic Cleansing Heart Sponge in Rose Clay one sponge ($10) was quite lovely. I like that you can reuse this sponge a couple of times and then sanitize it or replace it. One Love Organics sends you a reminder to replace it too when you purchase with OLO. Gentle exfoliating, cleansing. OLO has one for oily, sensitive, and normal skin type. Will Repurchase!http://shopstyle.it/l/htYe




LilFox - I will have a separate review. 

πŸ’œIlia Beauty Tinted Lip Conditioner in Blossom Lady* 0.14oz/ 4g ($26) muted pink shade is quite beautiful and Ilia Beauty top selling shade. This lip tinted conditioner are moisturizing, goes on smooth, easy glide on the lips. Beware these can go rancid so make sure you put this in the rotation. (so natural)  100% Natural dye & 85% organic. Purchase!http://shopstyle.it/l/htYM

πŸ’œ Ilia Beauty Pure Eyeliner in Rebel, Rebel (Black)* & Nightclubbing (Navy) .01oz/.33g ($24) are quite creamy, gentle with no tucking on the waterline. Great pigmentation too! I enjoyed this product that I purchased it in Nightclubbing color. 100% Natural Dye & 42% Organic Will Repurchase!http://shopstyle.it/l/htYW




πŸ’šFitglow Beauty Vita-Active Foundation 30ml ($55)in VF1,5  is nourishing, smoothing, a blendable foundation with skincare benefits! 98% organic, vegan, and so much more. Will repurchase!

πŸ’šFitglow Beauty Redness Rescue Creme 30ml ($69) Has a green tinted for reducing redness due to skin irritation like rosacea or scarring or sensitivity. Calms skin promotes healing. Repurchase!

πŸ’šFitglow Beauty Good Lash 8g ($26) Creates volume and lengthening without toxic and parabens. I really like is mascara because it doesn't smudge or rub off but it easily washes off with cleanser & water. It's quite lovely! Will Purchase!

πŸ’šFitglow Beauty Mineral Illuminating Blush & Bronzers ($35) in Rose & Beach are illuminating, easy to blend, good color payoff, natural. Will Repurchase!

Fitglow Beauty Mineral Eye Trio ($35) in Nudie is classic neutral colors, I had to work a little hard to get pigment on my finger and brush. Maybe repurchase others. I don't know if I got an old or dud/bad one.

Link to https://fitglowbeauty.com/

Lily Lolo Mineral Foundation 0.35oz/10g  ($22) in Candy Cane. Gentle, easy on the go, minimal/ no fuss makeup that comes in a variety of skin-tones & colors. For that Airbrush  Natural look. Will definitely repurchase!http://shopstyle.it/l/htY3

Lily Lolo Natural Vegan Mascara 10.5ml ($20) Comes out creamy, smooth, and black. Natural ingredients. I don't know if I got a bad/dud mascara but this mascara crumpled, smudged, irritated my eyes. I will try again. I will update my thoughts after I get a new tube of this mascara. Hmmm. http://shopstyle.it/l/htY7

Foundation Thursday! Ilia Sheer Vivid Tinted SPF 20 "T1"

Ilia Sheer Vivid Tinted Moisturizer SPF 20 "T1" Los Roques πŸ“· This photo is from https://iliabeauty.com

Ilia Sheer Vivid Tinted Moisturizer SPF 20 in T1 "Los Roques" ($42) 1.9 oz/ 50 ml (6 shades) This product is definitely moisturizing feel, creamy texture, and with good coverage but sheer like noted. The packaging is plastic tube so you can get all the product out. 100% Natural Dye, 38% Organic & Vegan. 


πŸ“· This photo was taken by @naturalbeautymermaid
These are my thoughts & opinions. I purchased this sample with my own money.


Above: looks pink but then swatched more yellow tone.
πŸ“· Ilia Sheer Vivid Tinted Moisturizer SPF "T1" Swatched then blended.

This Product is creamy, moisturizing, blendable, a slight smell, and sheer. The lightest color is fair but was more yellow tone than what was seen in the photo (which looked pinky tone). Well, the tinted moisturizer changes to a powder and easily dries to the skin. I just couldn't get over the smell, just smells like oil that you cook food in. I have that issue with some of their lipsticks at times. I think this product would do better with oily or normal skin because it goes to a semi-matte texture when it dries. The tinted moisturizer gets slightly dark when dries too. Will not purchase a full size.  The product ingredients has Dimethicone which my skin doesn't react well with.


Ingredients: Zinc Oxide 12%, Titanium Dioxide 2% Sunscreen

 Water (Agua), Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Glycerin, Caprylic Capric Triglyceride, Sesamum Indicum (Sesame) Seed Oil*, Polyglyceryl-2 Oleate, Polyhydroxystearic Acid, Polyglyceryl-2 Stearate, Behenyl Olivate, Chondrus Crispus Extract, Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil, Camellia Sinensis (White Peony Tea) leaf*, Dimethicone, Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil*, Butyrospermun Parkii (Shea Butter)*, Rosa Canina (Rosehip) Seed Oil*, Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf*, Jasminum Officinale (Jasmine) Flower/Leaf Extract, Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Flower/Leaf/Steam Extract, Eugenia Caryophyllus (Clove) Flower Extract, Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Fruit Extract, Sodium Hyaluronate, Tocopherol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Phenethyl alcohol. May contain Mica, Titanium Dioxide CI77891, Iron Oxide (CI77491, CI77492, CI77499). *Certified Organic Ingredients. IngrΓ©dients CertifiΓ©s Biologiques.

 My thoughts are at first couldn't get this product to work because it looks so cakey, heavy, look like too much makeup on the face. It didn't last so long as what others said. Lovely Melissa from +Citrine Natural Beauty Bar said you need to use a primer with it. So, of course, I took the advice got a sample of Jane Iredale Smooth Affair Primer for dry skin (They also have one for oily skin types too!).  Again I still got the heavy look but this time it lasted on my skin. Again I got advice that I was using too much. I decide to try again, dot it on my skin in areas and blend then Failed! I was still putting too much, ugh. When told a little bit, well it means really little! I tried again and YES!!! I got the BB cream to work. This Glow Time Mineral BB Cream is like foundation more than BB Cream to me. SPF is a bonus, I really think this is great for summer because of it last.  Although I got it to work, I broke out, itchy, redness every time I used it. Ingredients included Tamarindus Indica Extract (Tamarind) I was super bummed because I have a reaction to tamarind. Overall, I think this is a great product but I can't use it due to an ingredient. I would recommend it to others that don't have problems with ingredients.

You can purchase this product at the following Online shops.

I recommend taking Foundation Finder on Jane Iredale site to find out your shade. Jane Iredale customer service is super helpful with any questions you have for them too!πŸ’—
