This is a must-have brand for the organic girl who is looking for an outstanding clean & simple skin care product line. What impresses me about Farmaesthetics is that they take a completely sustainable approach to beauty, which is predicated upon the traditions of American herbalism. Rather than sourcing their ingredients from thousands of miles away in the Amazonian Rain Forest, Farmaesthetics chooses to forage closer to home.
These beautiful farm-fresh formulations have a certified 2-year shelf life, which is great considering that they use zero harmful preservatives. Okay – my top pick? Their Nourishing Lavender Milk is absolutely deeevine! It’s a rich moisturizing cream, which contains soothing calendula and pure Lavender essential oil. The consistency is just right – not too creamy, but think enough to feel know that it has serious substance. The most awesome thing about this pump bottle is that it’s multi-purpose: You can use it as a body and/or facial moisturizer, a massage lotion, or a luxurious hand lotion. It’s great under makeup because it leaves a lovely matte finish.
I also love their Fine Herbal Cleanser, which manages to wash away all the skin’s impurities and excess oil, without changing the skin’s ph at all. The two herbal oils in the formulation, not only smell wonderful, but they help to regulate your hormones, too.
