In the modern world we live in today with an overwhelming amount of choices and options, how do you pick the absolute best product for your skin? You have either the brands that have been around since your mom was a little girl, or newer brands that began their journey as organic, cruelty free, and more natural for your skin. If you’re looking for the top choices for your skincare routine, this article is for you!
True Botanicals
Pure ingredients, safe for the planet, and powered by a fantastic mission, True Botanicals is at the top of my list when it comes to skin care ingredients for healthy, supple skin. I have normal skin that gets more oily in the summer, and more dry in the winter, so having a company that has products that I can count on as my core, then supplemental products for specific needs (like extra moisture!) are what is important to me for a company. On top of that, the quality of the ingredients are wholesome and pure.
True Botanicals focuses on only certified organic and wild-harvested ingredients allowing only the purest form of the plant-derived peptides and antioxidant-rich oils to be combined with other natural extracts to make the products what they are. Absolutely no fillers and no chemicals are added which is a comforting fact knowing that some beauty brands use one or several of the 5,000+ possible chemicals out there found in a ton of beauty products! Yuck!
Our skin is our temple. Why would we want to trash it with chemicals and GMO ingredients when what our skin “truly” needs is a proven and award-winning company like True Botanicals.

Origins Skincare
Origins skincare line stood out to me for many reasons, but the biggest reason being that the ingredients are derived from plant, earth, and sea-based ingredients. Each product is created without parabens, SLS, and many other harmful chemical ingredients found in many top-selling skincare brands. The only animal products used are cruelty free honey and beeswax. Me being a HUGE honey and bee fan, this is totally okay for me.
I personally love the “Plantscription Youth Renewing Night Cream” for how smooth and creamy the texture is, how the product leaves not a trace of oily residue, and the mixed scents of lavender oil, orange peel, nutmeg, and rosemary. A tiny bit goes a long way so this jar could last up from 3-6 months for me depending!
