Bare Botanics Salt Scrubs: Would I Buy Again? Yes! I love Bare Botanics, even for my sensitive skin! My skin was hydrated all day, and the salt granules are super fine, so they’re not super abrasive like other salt scrubs. I also love that all of the ingredients are simple and clearly natural. Finding a…
CeraVe is one of the most popular skincare brands for a reason, especially if you have dry skin. For one, they’re a dermatologist-recommend brand. And when I say a dermatologist-recommended brand, I mean two dermatologists have recommended I use CeraVe for my eczema. Their products are made with three essential ceramides to improve moisture and…
Cetaphil. You’ve probably heard of them. They’re a famous beauty brand that’s successfully carved itself a spot in the acne prone skin and sensitive skincare niche. Most people have tried the Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser. Although this brand boasts dermatological testing to ensure its products cause minimum irritation, I wondered whether its testing extends to…
Who else grew up with Bath and Body Works? We all had that favorite scent (Moonlit Path for me) and that scent you couldn’t stand (Warm Vanilla Sugar *gag*). I stopped shopping at Bath and Body Works years ago. I loved their products when I was younger, but I think they took a dip in…

I’ve never tried Glossier, but this brand…

Neutrogena is one of the most well-known drugstore skincare and cosmetics brands. Since its products are readily accessible and affordable, many consumers use some of its most popular products such as eye cream, facial cleanser and lotion. Because of this, you’re probably asking yourself this question: is Neutrogena a cruelty free brand? Even though this…
Aveeno is a brand that has come under fire lately. In 2021, they were one of the brands exposed by the FDA for contaminating its sunscreens with benzene, which is a known carcinogen. Plus, the company’s animal testing policies have been at the forefront of its controversy. Before I get into Aveeno’s cruelty-free status, I…
Dove is one of the most well-known personal care brands in the world. They emerged in 1957 with the revolutionary multi-cleansing bar. Ever since then, Dove’s product line has expanded to hair care and all the way to baby products. I’ve been using Dove for years. I love their body products, soaps, deodorant, and baby…
