And while I do have quite a bit more to test/review for two of them, I just couldn't keep these a secret any longer! So, without further ado.....
When founder Heidi was pregnant with her daughter, she realized that there were many toxins in everything she was using. Determined to find safer solutions, she began making her own products and in no time "Lemongrass Spa" was born! Free from phthalates, mineral oils, parabens, sulfates, bismuth oxyxhloride, formaldehyde, talc, lake dyes, carmine, nano-particles, gluten and gmo's, Lemongrass Spa uses only high quality, Organic ingredients that are good for you, your skin and the environment! They are also cruelty free!
1) Prebiotic Facial Wash - I am in love with this cleanser! Ph balanced so that it won't strip your skin of its natural oils, this foaming gel cleanser removes make-up, dirt and grime like a champ! I like to use this at night after I oil cleanse and my skin is left feeling soft and clean. I've noticed that since I have been using this every night that my skin is getting clearer, which of course makes me very happy! I definitely recommend this to anyone, but especially those who are acne prone!
Price - $14
Ingredients: Purified Water, Coconut Oil, Sea Salt, Kelp, Chamomile Extract, Citric Acid and Glycerin (plant derived)
2) Prebiotic Facial Mist - This hydrating facial mist with Coconut Oil, Sea Kelp and Organic plant extracts helps keep skin clear and healthy by promoting good bacteria already present in the skin to flourish and eliminating the bad. The perfect companion to the Prebiotic Facial Wash!

2) Vanilla Citrus Body Oil - Hands down, this is my favorite body oil..ever! It's multi-tasking (can be used on body, face and hair), smells like heaven (vanilla with a hint of orange..mmmmmm), makes your skin feel softer than a baby's bottom, and the scent lasts allllll day! I seriously can't rave enough about this!

1) Organic Inner Strength Tea - With ingredients like Echinacea and Elderberry to boost immunity and Acerola, Elderflower and Ginger to warm and soothe, this spicy tea is the perfect drink for when fighting off a cold or just as a treat in the colder months to come.

2) Bee Lovely Body Butter - Lightly scented and decadently rich, this body butter is a true skin treat! Organic Honey, Shea and Cocoa Butters leave skin soft and deeply moisturized, while the subtle fragrance from Mandarian Orange Essential Oil uplifts the senses. This is the first body butter I have tried that doesn't leave my skin feeling greasy, which I love. The texture is creamy and silky and it absorbs pretty quickly too. A little goes a long way.
