Economical soap--great for cleansing acne-prone skin!
This simple soap comes in a simple plastic-wrapped 2-pack from Trader Joe's, but don't let its unassuming packaging fool you! It is mild, yet works great on my acne-prone skin--and for only a couple of bucks, it can't be beat.

Keys Soap Solar RX Therapeutic Sunblock--amazing moisturizer that protects your skin!
I came across this sunscreen/moisturizer when searching the Cosmetic Safety Database (run by the Environmental Working Group, this database lists products by their safety to the skin and the environment). The Solar RX Therapeutic Sunblock was the only one with the lowest rating of 0 (the best rating possible) based on UVA/UVB hazard and sunscreen instability, but the best part is that it is an AMAZING ALL-NATURAL MOISTURIZER as well! Unlike other moisturizing sunscreens with zinc oxide, this one has nano-particles which makes it perfect for wearing under foundation (and doesn't leave a white film on the skin). I gave it a 4 out of 5 stars because the scent is a little overwhelming (from one of the herbal ingredients, as there are no added artificial fragrances); however, even that isn't much of a concern as the scent is only strong once pumped from the container, but disappears onces smoothed onto the skin. Result: soft skin safe from the sun!

Great company/great product
Great company (started by a couple of young vegetarians on an organic farm) and great product. You can use it sparingly, and it still gives you a nice light foam. For those who love to read ingredients, check out the product description from their website:
Our Fragrance Free Moisture Shave contains a moisturizing formula with antiseptic Peppermint to cool and stimulate, emollients Olive Oil and Coconut Oil and Aloe Vera for healing. Goldenseal heals and acts as an antiseptic. Arnica aids circulation. Lady's Mantle is an astringent and has styptic properties. Sage, Horsetail, and Orangeflower act as astringents and refreshers. Soapwort is rich lathering, effective with acne, and like Lemon Grass, cleansing. Vitamins A, D, and E, the nutrients so important for healthy skin, complete the shave. As always, our products contain no animal ingredients, artificial colors, or unnecessary chemicals and were not tested on animals.

Great cleanser for oily/acne-prone skin
Product is a little pricey (about $12), but it smells great and is a perfect end of the day cleanser. I break out occasionally, and this product has so far kept those pimples away--and your face feels super-clean to boot!

Smells yummy, but be careful of the color
The darker colors seems too dark for everyday wear (and I have a medium skin tone)--though it smells delicious.

Didn't soften my hair
I tried this product a couple of times, but it really didn't soften my hair. I truly wanted it to work, since it's 98% natural and smells delicious--but it just doesn't!
