"Natural" Face Cream Suggestions?

The skin deep database by Environmental Working Group (www.cosmeticsdatabase.com) includes adult personal care products. I bet you'll find something there.

www.safecosmetics.com - you can look up ingredients and product lines. Ingredients to avoid, per this and other sites, include: parabens, sufaltes, sodium EDTA, dyes (of course!), anything "methyl- ", fragrances and if I can just put a plug in here, please avoid using anything that contains "Squalene", unless it is plant-sourced.

There's a reason that Oil of Olay and Nutrgena products are so inexpensive - because they are made with plastics (parabens) and other petroleum products. I personally love the eDerma line. And I have friends who love Aubreyand Arbonne. There's no arguing that the Oil of Olay Regenerist lines make your skin feel amazing, but they come with stuff we don't want - plastic and by-products should not go on our skin!

Go to the environmental working group site-- they test all of the face creams for toxins and tell you how dangerous they are. http://www.cosmeticsdatabase.com/ goes right to their "skin deep" page or go to www.ewg.org

I love MyChelle (Whole Foods and Pharmica) and Origins products. Both have very clean ingredients and medium price ranges

Hi a good natural face cream is jurlique ( I thinks it's sold at nordstrom) but if u r after a less expensive brand check out whole foods they have a great selection of natural skin care and sunscreens. If you wear makeup you can use a natural mineral powder foundation made with zinc which will provide the sun protection you need without using a chemical sunscreen.

All Arbone products are pure, safe, and beneficial. http://www.arbonne.com/products/ Check them out.

The EWG website that others have linked to is a great resource especially as far as listing the ingredients that you want to look out for. As an example: Kiss My Face products claim to be natural and organic but then include parabens.

One product line that I really like that is locally made (Berkeley) is Grateful Body. http://www.gratefulbody.com/
They're not cheap but they're very highly concentrated so a little bit goes a long way. You can also find them at Whole Foods I think and they make a trial/travel sized kits so that you can try them out without a hefty commitment ($8, I think). Good luck!

I use Arbonne products and love them.

I use Traders Joes Enrich face cream, with 15 SPF. I LOVE IT! I have very sensitive skin, and have never had a problem with theirs. Best thing--it is about $4 a bottle (for 4 oz)

You should check out Lush Cosmetics. They're awesome and all natural! Our local Macy's carries the brand, but they do have shops in certain malls.

I use Naturopathica Products and love them.

My sister Lynn just became a rep for Arbonne International, a company that uses premium botanical ingredients (no animal by-products and no oils or glycerins that just give the illusion of moisture without doing anything to help your skin). She became a true-believer when the products helped to rid her of sun damage and darkening of some patches on her face, without any bleaching agents. The website is www.arbonne.com. If you have questions or decide to order, you can contact Lynn at ____@____.com rep number is 115-285-869.

Shaklee has a line called Enfuselle that is all natural and guaranteed to make your skin look younger.
