I’ve been trying out a new green skincare line, Naturopathica.

Let me tell you, it is love.

There are no parabens or sulfates. It is natural, smells clean and simple, and their focus is on creating skincare with integrity. Plus, it’s packaged in these gorgeously-designed glass bottles that make me happy just to open up my bathroom cabinet and see these little blue bottles smiling back at me.

I was thrilled to be contacted by Nautropathica inviting me to participate in a bloggers’ event to try out some new products.

I couldn’t say yes fast enough!

It begins today, and here’s what I can tell you.

I asked for the Normal to Dry regimen, which includes these four new products for me:

• Oat Facial Polish
• Beech Tree & Ginseng Daily Moisturizer
• Chamomile Cleansing Milk
• Plant Stem Cell Serum

Each Naturopathica product I’ve used has felt gentle but it gets the job done, and so far I’m thrilled with these new blue bottles in my cabinet. I’m about to try out the nighttime cleanser and serum, and I loved what the morning brought, especially the Oat Facial Polish.

Having woken up with a whopper of a pimple this morning, this seems to be perfectly timed.

As a mom, my ‘skincare routine’ has all but vanished, as I often barely have time to swipe a warm washcloth over my face before bedtime, let alone the lack of sleep and attention to my own skincare as I spend more time worrying about Gray’s little bottom, his dry winter skin, and his chapped little cheeks from the winter winds.

The next 30 days will be telling, to not only get treated to using incredible products twice a day, but also to stick to a specific regimen that does not include using Gray’s Diaper Creme as eye cream as I’m running out the door.

So far, I’m thrilled.
