Actually there are a lot of of German products available since decades that are great. For example Weleda, Dr. Hauschka, Primavera. When I first heard that Kate Moss uses Dr. Hauschka many years ago, I found it really strange. But those traditional brands have modernize their packaging and are now really good. Additionally, they are not that expensive as those fancy new brands... My favor products are e.g. Weleda Rose Body Oil, Dr. Hauschka Lip Balm, Weleda Skin Food for cracked skin and all the oils from Primavera. Additionally, the brand i+m from Berlin is great. It's organic, vegan and sources a lot of their ingredients from small farmers. 💞
I've really enjoyed trying new green skincare products over the past year or so. I subscribe to Beauty Heroes and just added Boxwalla - nice way to try out new brands. I have Vintner's Daughter and I wish it meant that I stopped buying other products, but it doesn't - though I am trying to use it up. I recently discovered Stark Skincare and Earthwise beauty which both produce beautiful, effective products in small batches. Some of my favorites are: One Love Organics Vitamin B cleanser, Josh Rosebrook hydrating accelerator, Osmia Organics black clay soap, Kimberly Sayer ultra light SPF 30, Heart of Gold Red Tara Mask, Lilfox Jungle Glow and Cleopatra masks, and Maya Chia supercouple. I could go on... I tried a sample of the odacite wild carrot serum and it's on my list to purchase a full size. I am intrigued by the organic pharmacy cleanser - I've been obsessed with carrot lately! Thanks for the video.
I never did an updated video - I don't seek out brands that are considered "clean" or "natural" and just use what I love and what works for me. I personally don't love the term "clean" or "natural" beauty as it's a marketing term I feel is used to create fear in consumers. I probably will not make another video like this but rather review the products that I like regardless of whether they are deemed "clean" or "natural". Hope that makes sense! :)
Hi :-) Thanks for this :-) I only use green, clean and/or organic skincare and makeup. Never ever anything with petroleum and harsh ingredients. Love this video. I love all your videos. Warm hugs from Sweden / Suzanne
+withsuuuz I\'m not sure but ,if anyone else is searching for makeup to look young try Jadonite Food Beauty Buddy (should be on google have a look ) ? Ive heard some awesome things about it and my neighbor got great results with i
Thank you so much for the info. I started using the Kypris Moonlight Catalyst Odacite mixed with the Wild Carrot Serum Concentrate and in 1 application it significantly minimized and removed sebum from my large pores. My skin looks so much brighter. I am so glad that I found your channel. I love that you are not all about drugstore products.
hi Maree, the lip balms from Farmacy are amazing!!!! At first I thought $16.00 was a little too much for just a lip balm, but they are probably the best lip balms I've used and I love the ginger flavor.
One of my favorite brand is Andalou naturals. Their vitamin c serum is one of my hole grails and beautypedia rates it top notch too! The coconut foaming cleanser is the most hydrating soft effective cleaner i have ever used. Check it out!
Ive just started using Andalou haircare and its made my dry brittle hair soft and shiny. I will never go back to drugstore shampoos Im defintely going to try Andalou skincare.
So informative! I'm really trying to get into more natural skincare! Some of it's so expensive though. I'm always hunting for a cheaper option. Fig and Yarrow is new at Target..their prices are pretty good :)
Hi, Ive always used drugstore shampoos and conditioners. My hair was always dry and brittle and the pungent chemical fruity scents were intolerable. I didnt want to spend the big bucks on luxury brands (I tried Paul Mitchell and it dried out my hair) so I tried the "natural" brands from whole foods. My hair is now soft and shiny. My favorites are Andalou Naturals and natures gate and Acure. As soon as Ive made a dent in my skincare stash Im most definetely going to change to natural and organic skincare..
What you said about mv being gentle and hydrating is really the definition of my skin! I'll try it soon then. On top of it, some areas of my face changed a bit so now I'm going back to the basics at their max. I'm using blue cocoon mixed on my hand with josh rosebrook booster. Have you tried it? I also love it as a mist, it's really fine and unique
I have a Tata Harper question....I just purchased her cleansing oil and while I do love the product itself, I am having such a hard time with the packaging? Does your pump on your cleansing oil get stuck? My pump seems to jam every time and oil ends up shooting out all over my bathroom!
Sunny W. I have tried Mahalo the Bean( facial exfoliator) this one is so amazing and gentle to my sensitive combination dry skin. They also claim that is really great for acne prone skin and all skin types. If you have a chance, try this one and let me know. And another famous is Mahalo The Unveil ( Cleansing Balm) this one I have tried it too. It's better than Omorovicza thermal cleansing balm/ or Eve Lom. Thanks for sharing Sunny W.
My only problem with Tata and Kora is they still haven't thought about recycle! 1 it's expensive and if i (we) could take the bottles back and get 5, 10 dollars off nice on our purse and great for environment!! Oh well.
it's pronounced oh-dah-cee-tay - i love that entire line! loved this review, debating between kypris antioxidant dew and blue cocoon. which one would you recommend more for summer?
Good to know! Thanks! Well they are VERY different. It's almost impossible to compare. Blue Cocoon is a healing HEAVY HEAVY solid balm. While the Antioxidant Dew is a lightweight serum perfect for hydration. It really depends on what you are looking for.

Do you have an updated version of this? I love the combination of non toxic and luxury 🥰

Vintner's Daughter is the best skin care product I've EVER used!!! Hands down guys it's as good as everything you've heard!

Great to hear!!
Go to oasis organic beauty spa it in New York everyone love that spa! It had organic products. And Maggie , she is so nice
Would love to see an updated video of this! Have a point of view from somebody who isn't a die hard green beauty fan.
I haven't tried too many new products from the clean beauty category recently but when I do, I will do an updated video!
hi Maree,
the lip balms from Farmacy are amazing!!!! At first I thought $16.00 was a little too much for just a lip balm, but they are probably the best lip balms I've used and I love the ginger flavor.
They really are such a sleeper hit!
Love your videos. Happy Mother's Day to your mom. How about another update on some of her favorites?
Yes, I am working on a post soon with her updated favorites!
Your skin is beautiful and so glowy!! Great video! Thank you!
Useful video, thanks! MV Organic moisturizer is AMAZING!
One of my favorite brand is Andalou naturals. Their vitamin c serum is one of my hole grails and beautypedia rates it top notch too! The coconut foaming cleanser is the most hydrating soft effective cleaner i have ever used. Check it out!

Great to know!
Love the video! I really think you should try some things from Mahalo or Leahlani. Great brands from Hawaii and are amazing luxury experience. 🌸🌺
Yes, those are on my list to try!
Oh yeah! You will love them! Can't wait to hear what you think. 😃
This video is good. Thanks

I can't wait to try the MV mask.
It's wonderful!
If you could recommend only one would you go for May lindstroms blue cocoon or Vitners daughter?
Vintner's Daughter.
Thanks
I have a Tata Harper question....I just purchased her cleansing oil and while I do love the product itself, I am having such a hard time with the packaging? Does your pump on your cleansing oil get stuck? My pump seems to jam every time and oil ends up shooting out all over my bathroom!
Oh no! I haven't had that happen to me but I have heard other people complain about that issue. :(
Love your vids...plenty of details...have you ever tried Mahalo brand?
I have not!
Vivi WW I've been eyeing that line for a while. It looks similar to May Lindstroms line. I'd love to hear more about it.

That would be a wonderful idea! Wish they would do that!
You should do a review on Sunday Riley and Drunk Elephant
I have an entire video dedicated to Drunk Elephant. And I have reviewed TONS of Sunday Riley on my blog and RUclips!
it's pronounced oh-dah-cee-tay - i love that entire line!

Do you still use la prairie refining lotion toner in your rotation ?
Not over the past few months because I ran out :( but I have a new one so I plan to rotate it back in soon!
Great! I thought It just stopped working out for you. I love it as well.
Try Thayers...cheap...natural...I use the unscented one. Love it!
What's the store your friend owns called?
