Great body wash! I tried this in "Raspberry Winter" scent and it is magnificent! The first listed ingredient is organic raspberry. The next four are elderberry, mango, coneflower, and sea kelp. The hard-to-pronounce ingredients come much later. Vitamins are also included.
Generally I am more of a bar soap than...

Pretty good conditioner This was a pretty good conditioner. The ingredients are great and it smells good. It didn't do anything outstanding to my hair, but it was as good if not better than most other conditioners that are in this price range.

Was great until it started rotting This shampoo had a great sweet smell, almost like frosting. Unfortunately, about half-way into the bottle it also had a hint of a meaty smell, and a couple weeks later it reeked and I had to throw it away.
Disappointing! I give 3 stars still because it was a really good product before it spoiled...

Works fine, but separated in the tube I really wanted to like this moisturizer! It worked well on my sensitive skin and did not cause me to break out (which many natural moisturizers do, even if they say for sensitive skin).
It doesn't really have a strong smell and is spf 10. The ingredients are wonderful.
Unfortunately, it is in a...

Good face wash! I really enjoyed the sweet smell and the gentle feel of the face wash. Although it is exfoliating, it is still good for my sensitive skin and doesn't contain anything abrasive. This face wash made my face clean and smooth. I worried it would dry it out since it says it is for "normal to oily...

Great way to save on real invitations I like Evite. It is easy to use and as long as your friends check email, then it works. You can change the way the invitation looks and even upload your own photos. It's good for the planet in the sense that it replaces traditional invitations.
Part of me is a little sad that people barely use...

Natural night cream My sensitive skin cannot handle this night cream without breaking out. I've used it around my eyes only instead, but it doesn't seem to work as well as their Royal Jelly eye cream.

Not everything from Trader Joe's is good for you or the environment! This is one step up from ramen noodles, but it contains way more packaging. It is a plastic bowl, wrapped in plastic wrap, then surrounded by cardboard. Within the plastic bowl is a plastic packet. When you open that you will find three other plastic packets, each with some sort of seasoning in...

Natural origin mineral make-up It is super super cool that this is available in Jewel, Wal-Greens, etc. It's also super cool that there are 40% off coupons in the newspaper. Mineral make-up that is paraben-free, for a good price? Nice!
The downside is that with a mirror and disposable brush, the container produces a bit...

Good-smelling shampoo I like this stuff. I got it at Target. My boyfriend likes the smell so much that he wants me to buy more. I would, but it's too expensive! $8 in these parts. 97.something% natural.
Instead I go to TJ Maxx and get shampoos that are just as natural for half that.
