Dr. Bronner's

My friend, Carissa has a beauty blog, Hooked on Beauty.  Whenever I have a question about something, makeup or skin care related, I just shoot her an email.   I asked her about a facial cleanser one time and she recommended a whole slew of products.  This one, however, is very versatile and I just love it!
Angela, this is for you.  I went searching for Dr. Bronner's soaps after Carissa told me about it and I found that there was a baby mild soap as well.  I picked some up and we've been using it ever since.  My kids' skin is soft and not dried out.  Even in the winter when it's really dry outside my kids' skin is still silky smooth.  I use the liquid soap for them. We just dump a little in their bath water and watch the dirt fall off their skin.  It's the best soap.  It completely strips you clean.

I originally purchased the peppermint bar soap to use as a facial cleanser.  You get this tingly, clean feeling after using it.   It's great!  Jared started using it in the shower and it has actually toned down his eczema.  It hasn't made it go away completely, but it is less noticeable now.

There are many different scents.  I have to say that the almond, peppermint, and baby mild are still my favorites.   Try it out and let me know how it works for you.  I'd love to hear about it.  I have found Dr. Bronner's on the internet at their website, as well as an army surplus store near our house,  Target, Sprouts, Vitamin Cottage, and King Soopers.

Hooked On Beauty

As much as I would love to take the time to research beauty products to take better care of my skin, hair, etc. I just don't have the time. My friend, Carissa does. She is a makeup artist here in the Denver area. She has tried it all. If she hasn't I am sure if ask she will hunt the product down and try it for herself. Tell her "Camera Jan" sent you! Check out her blog here. When she's not trying out the latest beauty products she is doing wedding makeup. You can find her here if you need a makeup artist for your wedding. She does stunning work! So the point of this post is for all of you local Coloradans. Carissa is Fox 31's beauty expert. She will be appearing on Fox's Good Day Colorado on Monday morning around 9:15am. And she will be playing Oprah and giving away a lot of goodies!! So be sure to watch her.
