From the Sea of Galilee and Inspired by Nature - Lavido Skincare Review

Lavido is a natural face and body care company based on the use of raw, organic plant oils and ingredients that are combined with volcanic thermal springs as well as purified waters from the Sea of Galilee. Interestingly, these waters, used since Roman times, have both healing and recuperative properties. It was this special ingredient that sparked my interest in this brand the most.

What started as a baby cream in the kitchen of founder Ido Magal has since grown into a global business. And not only are the best raw ingredients continually sourced, but Lavido also incorporates the most top notch and cutting edge technologies into their formulations.

Let's take a look at some of these lovely products:

1) Pomegranate Seed Oil, Lemon and Macadamia Gentle Exfoliator Cream - Formulated with oyster shell powder, organic Pomegrante peel, cold pressed Pomegrante Seed and Citrus Oils, this exfoliating cream gently sloughs off dead skin cells, while also leaving your skin soft and revitalized. I'm a sucker for a good exfoliating product and this one definitely hits all the right notes for me. The texture is kind of a "grainy creamy" consistency, but without being too abrasive for my skin (though if you have extremely sensitive skin or rosacea, this may be a bit too harsh for you) and the scent I find to be quite pleasant due to the Lavender Oil used. This product also doubles as a face mask, and with skin healing ingredients like Black Cumin Seed Oil, Jojoba Oil, and Vitamin E, this has really helped keep pesky blemishes at bay.

Price - $34


2) Evening Primrose Seed, Calendula and Frankincense Ultra Daily Moisture Cream - Rich in Omega 6 acids, vitamins and cold pressed Evening Primrose Seed Oil, this lovely moisturizer soothes and hydrates skin. It also contains Geranium Oil to balance skin, Calendula to soothe, Patchouli, Frankincense and Lavender Oils to rejuvenate and Aloe Vera Leaf Juice to heal. The texture is lightweight and non-greasy, yet deeply nourishes. A little goes a long way, so this will last quite a while. :-)

Price - $39


3) Bulgarian Lavender, Evening Primrose and Avocado Oil Nurturing Hand Cream -  I've never really been one to get excited about hand products, until I tried this one. It's light, silky texture glides on and absorbs quickly and completely, leaving hands super soft, without feeling greasy. It's lightly scented with Lavender, which is calming and soothing to the senses. This will definitely be kept by me to use throughout the day, especially now that the weather is getting cooler and drier!

Price - $13



My overall thoughts: I was quite impressed by all three of these products. I loved the textures, the subtle and pleasant scents, as well as their performance. If I had any complaint at all it would be the use of Phenoxyethanol in the exfoliator and the face cream as I do try and avoid this ingredient whenever I can. I also wished that they included the full ingredients list on the website, which would make it easier for people to see if there is anything in the products that may cause an allergic reaction (or if you're an ingredient nerd like me and just want to know everything that's in it). That's just my two cents. ;-) Other than that, I think this is a wonderful brand, with beautiful products that is more than worth checking out!
