Product Spotlight: Baby Care Set For Baby Soft Skin
“Baby skincare” may sound silly or frivolous to some, but it is just as important to take care of their skin as it is yours. With countless products boasting obscure ingredients your baby supposedly needs, our Baby Care Set offers a simple, gentle, and effective way to nourish their delicate skin.
WHY YOU NEED TO CLEAN YOUR MAKEUP BRUSHES
Look. We’ve all been there.
We’ve all beheld our cosmetic collection with a loving gaze... and those not so pristine brushes off to the side, crusted with weeks of use.
It’s the elephant in the room, and for what it’s worth: the elephant isn’t looking pretty.
Ingredient Spotlight: Coconut Oil
This week, we are excited to spotlight one of our most used (and beneficial) natural ingredients, coconut oil! Prior to starting Urban Oreganics, we spent a great deal of time researching all-natural ingredients to create our beauty and skincare products. Coconut oil immediately stood out as being multi-beneficial, and since it is so plentiful, we knew it would provide an excellent base for many of our products.
Ingredient Spotlight: Clay
This week, we’re excited to introduce a new series highlighting the all-natural ingredients we use in our handcrafted skincare line. Prior to starting Urban Oreganics, I spent a great deal of time scouring Pinterest for DIY beauty products. One ingredient I kept reading about over and over were pure cosmetic clays. They are found in many skincare and cosmetic items on the market shelves. All-natural, quality clays offer important minerals, drawing abilities, and detoxification properties for skin health.
Making The Switch To All-Natural Deodorant
Going “all-natural” in the body odor department has been such a hot topic lately… pun intended. Working in the small-batch beauty industry for over five years now, we’ve found that switching to a natural deodorant is either the first healthy swap someone makes or the very last. So we’ve gathered some tips to make the transition smooth and painless.
Product Highlight: Facial Cream
What if you could have an all-day facial moisturizer that never felt greasy and didn’t contain harsh chemicals? Well, look no further! Perhaps our most popular product to date, our green tea Facial Cream is the perfect, non-toxic alternative to store bought moisturizers. Our Facial Cream actually started as a request from a friend. She was wanting a facial cream that would be anti-aging and also prevent and treat acne. After weeks of research and development, we were able to nail down this best-selling formula. From that first full batch, it was an instant hit!
Product Highlight: Eye Serum
We take so much pride in the high-quality skin care products that we provide our customers. Every product is a result of extensive research, trial and error, and human - NEVER animal - testing. We rely on customer feedback for improvements and new products as well. For over a year we had customers requesting a serum that could moisturize and minimize fine lines around the eyes. After researching and playing with ingredients and formulas, we created our multi-purpose Eye Serum.
Product Highlight: Cleansing Bars
Anyone else hate traveling with mini bottles of so many different things: face wash, body wash, shampoo, conditioner, etc., plus dealing with the TSA liquid requirements? I did too. After some research and development, I formulated our Cleansing Bars - a soap that works for the whole body (hair too!). I ended up loving it at home as well - my four bottles in the shower are now forever replaced by one perfect bar.
Product Highlight: Body Food
Our Body Food is just how it sounds. Food for your body; which includes your skin and your hair. As I value the ability of things to be multi-purpose, I set out to create an entire-body moisturizer using the base of our baby butter formula. I wanted it to be thick enough to really provide deep moisturizing, but also a formula that can be used head-to-toe.
Product Highlight: Rosewater Toner
Whether your skin is oily, dry, normal, or a little bit of everything, our Rosewater Toner pairs perfectly with all of our facial care products, leaving you with bright and healthy skin.
