New Discoveries

I’ve said it before, but one of my favorite things about blogging is all the wonderful, natural product lines and creators I get to discover. These brands (often handmade) are not only striving to make the most natural and effective products available, but they’re also made with so much love and detail. There have been a few products and brands I’ve come across lately that I couldn’t wait to share with you!

Tiossān is a lovely natural skincare line founded by Magatte Wade. Originally from Senegal, she wanted to bring some of the beauty wisdom and traditions from that region and share them with world. She created a line using ingredients and formulations passed down by her ancestors. I’ve been using the hydrating body wash and renewing body lotion and I just love the deep, romantic scent and the luxurious feel of these products. The body wash is creamy and lathers well, leaving a soft scent behind and the body lotion is a lighter lotion perfect for these hotter months when you want to skip the heavy balms and creams. Buy them here.

Not long ago, Delizioso Skincare teamed up with Tara of TheOrganicLifeBlog.com to create a beautiful line of skincare, perfume, and makeup. I had the pleasure of testing out the Adorned Blush, Glow Crème Luminizer, and California Bronzing Mousse. The texture of all three products is light and creamy- somewhere between a mousse and a blush, and it blends in easily. I found they also all give buildable color which is great if you want a more subtle look or perhaps want to go a little bolder. One of the best things about this collaboration is that some of the proceeds from certain products go towards cancer research in honor of Tara’s dad. I love when I brand not only creates beautiful products but also gives back as well. Buy them here.

I feel like I’ve been searching for a good eye cream for ages.. And mama needs a good eye cream. I recently started using Tata Harper’s Restorative Eye Créme and so far I’ve been impressed! I wanted something to address anti-aging, under eye circles and puffiness. I know that’s a tall order but I have my fingers crossed something will work. After a few weeks of use I’ve noticed a change in the fine lines around my eyes and the dark circles. I haven’t noticed a huge change in the puffiness yet but the package said to wait a few weeks, so we shall see. The bottle is surprisingly large for an eye cream and I don’t need to pump out much to cover my entire eye area. The cream goes on very smoothly and has a silky feel which I love. It has the best texture of any eye cream or serum I’ve tried. Buy it here. 

I also wanted to share this incredible line with you! I just started testing out Ursa Major a couple weeks ago, but this gender neutral brand is winning lot’s of points in our house. I’ll be able to share my complete review in the next couple weeks hopefully! I have something soooo exciting for you all at the end of this week so stay tuned! xoxo
