Remove Makeup with no Chemicals

This post may contain affiliate links. Read my disclosure policy here.




I am always trying to replace chemical items with non chemical items when ever I find a good product. My daughter has been asking for one of these micro fiber makeup remover cloths for quite a while. I am glad I was finally able to get her one and one for myself.

What I love about this is that it is reusable over and over again. This is microfiber so I suggest washing in a laundry bag and hanging to dry to keep it in tip to shape. I can't compare them to other brands because this is the first we have had but so far they have worked well for us.

If you are interested you can get this 2 pack set below.

Pimple Sucker



Pimple Suckers this is what we call them like this one by Bellesentials is great to have on hand. With having teens this would have been great to have several years ago when all of the kids where home but we still have two children out of 6 still in school so with one a teenager and the one heading into being a tween this will be used. 

This is also great for adults who have problems with acne. I love that this comes with different nozzles for different problems as well as being rechargeable. No batteries or cords to worry about. The Bellesentials pimple extractor is great for both body and face use and is adjustable so you can set it to what is comfortable for your extraction. Super easy to use and worth it's weight in gold if you have lots of body acne. 

Remember always check with a Dr. before use. Make sure area you are going to use this on is clean before use and clean pore extractor after each use. The Bellesentials Pore extractor can be found at my affiliate link below.

Instapeel

* Some of the links in the article may be “affiliate links.” This means if you click on the link and purchase the item, I will receive compensation.  



I didn't use this Instapeel for my face but I did use it on my feet. The camera really didn't pick up that much of a difference could be the day I am holding my foot but they sure do feel smoother.

Instapeel is super easy to use. Just hop in the shower or bath and let skin get moist for at least 5 minutes and then open your packet up and put a little on your fingertips. Once on skin then rub back and forth till skin stops peeling. What I like most about this item is that it only attacks dead skin and not the new skin that is already there. This was a big concern for me and the reason why I used it on my feet first instead of my face.

To be honest besides using facial products and masks I am still concerned with using something like this on my face but after seeing tons of videos etc I would go with this form over all others at this time. This can be used on your face, feet, elbows, knees, etc.

I am going to give one of these packs to my husband to use on his elbows and hope to update at a later time the difference before and after for those as well. It will be interesting to see.

From time to time I mix and match my skin care line but I really like to have a complete skin care line because the products are made to work together for best results. I love the Dead Sea skin care line from reNeu from the scents to the results.

With this kit you get a pump cleanser, a pump toner, a mud mask, and a facial cream. I love all of thes products but wish the toner had come in a spray bottle over a pump. My face feels clean and refreshed once I apply the cream my face feels smooth. Very happy with this product.

Shira Acai Facial Mask




Shir-Organics has lots of products from toners to moisturizers for both face and body. Luckily I was able to try out their Shir-Organic Shira Acai Facial Mask. The container that this comes in is awesome all on it's own. I am certainly going to repurpose it after I am done with my facial mask.

The product itself smells wonderful and you can see the chunks of Acai right in the facial mask. I can only imagine how their other products look but I am very happy with the facial mask and hope to try more of their products in the future so I can tell my readers about those products as well.

I put my mask on after I have washed my face, I let it stay on for 10-15 minutes then rinse with cool water, then follow with my toner, serums, and facial moisturizer, for a full skin regimen. I approve of this product and give it a thumbs up on both appearance and results.

English Garden




Some of my readers might remember my post about the Soniclear last year which you can find here. Even though they still make the original I am here this time to tell you about their Soniclear Petite in English Garden.

This little Soniclear Petite is sized just right for everyday use but more importantly travel use. Comes with a USB charger, that attaches magnetically, cradle, and Soniclear petite in English Garden.

I already love my regular Soniclear Elite but this is quickly becoming my favorite in our downstairs bathroom. I love that I can buy different heads for each member of our family so we can all have extra clean faces.

Easy to setup, use, gentle on your face, and is oh so cute. Perfect gift for you teen or anyone on your list who travels.

The Soniclear Petite can be found on Amazon in several colors. English Garden here





What Michael Todd has to say about the Soniclear PetiteThe ultimate in sonic powered cleansing in a beautiful compact design. Cordless, rechargeable and waterproof. Soniclear Petite's advanced cleansing system provides high-frequency sonic cleansing up to 300 movements per second, 3 speed modes and face brush head featuring polished bristle tips for comfort and sonic outer bristles for easier cleansing of hard to reach places like the tight crevice around the nose (t-zone). Plus, Soniclear has the world's first built in protection against microbial contamination so the brushes stay clean and fresh longer

The SECRET behind the Soniclear
Antimicrobial 
protection is REAL cleansing innovation!

The inventors of Soniclear recognized that skin cells and moisture remaining on the brush heads between uses can create conditions for bacteria to grow. So all Soniclear brush bristles, the base to which the bristles are attached and the protective cap are treated during the manufacturing process with proprietary LIFE® antimicrobial product protection - a soniclear exclusive - to guard against the growth of stain and odor causing bacteria. Traditional skin cleansing systems do not provide this protection.
The antimicrobial protection in Soniclear is registered with the US Environmental Protection Agency to guard against stain and odor causing bacteria on the Brush Heads of your Soniclear. In laboratory tests, surfaces treated with the antimicrobial in Soniclear showed 99.9% inhibition of stain and odor causing bacteria after 24 hours compared with an untreated control. Safe, effective and long lasting, the antimicrobial product protection in Soniclear Brush Heads will not wash out or wear off for the normal life of the brush so the brushes stay cleaner, fresher for longer.

Valentia Eternal Youth Exfoliating Scrub





This scrub is gelatinous with little flecks of scrubbing material in it. My daughter calls it my sparkly scrub, but it does not have sparkles in it, they just look like that to her.

I use this about twice a month on my face with my fingers. After I follow up with my regular skin routine. I usually do this at night so that if there were any red spots, although I haven't dealt with any redness, it will be gone by the morning.

Valentia Clear Lift Revitalizing Serum




What I love about The Valentia brand is that most if not all of their products are Made in the USA and are Vegan friendly. For our family this is a way to get a big thumbs up almost right away.

This is a new to me product which is used in the evening after your facial cleansing but before your lotion and or eye care products.

I use just 2 pumps to do my whole face. I know my face is really enjoying a little pampering now that I am getting older. Hard to believe in about two weeks I will be 44.  Most of the time they think I am sisters with my daughters and one time they actually carded me and not my daughter. That was a win win day for me.

Organic 100% Pure Rosewater



I am always on the lookout for new skin care items. I love to get whole lines of items because they are meant to be used together. When you mix and match you don't know that the items will work together or if you will have breakouts or other problems because of one thing having a reaction to the other.

I like this line because it is easy to use and they all do what they are supposed to do. Today I am here to tell you about the Rosewater which I use like a toner after I cleanse my face but before my serum and moisturizer. You can also use this one your face during the day to hydrate your skin. This even works well on your hair, think fly away hair with a spritz of this and you are good to go.

Here you can also see the Vitamin C cream which works well and comes with my favorite kind of pump. Easy to use and looks great on my vanity. A nice cream that goes on easily and effortlessly blending in the skin quickly.

You can read my review of Joyal Beauty Vitamin C Facial Cleanser Here.

You can find the Joyal Beauty products on Amazon.


What Joyal Beauty has to say about their Rosewater.

This luxurious 100% pure rosewater is steam distilled from Rosa Damascena, which is recognized as a unique type of rose with different properties from roses cultivated elsewhere and is widely considered as the finest in the world.
The Rose Valley in Bulgaria is the best area that provides just the right conditions to grow this incredible rose. The blossoms are collected by hand. Rose oil comes in two main types, Rose Absolute and Rose Otto. Rose Absolute is produced by solvent extraction. Rose Otto sometimes called attar of roses, it has been used since ancient times. It is the more expensive of the two types of rose because it usually extracted by gentle steam distillation  from Rosa Damascena. Rose Otto Hydrosol is more pure and provides more benefits to skin compared with Rose Absolute. What distinguishes Rose Absolute from Rose Otto is that Rose Absolute is not considered to be a “true” essential oil as it has undergone a chemical extraction process and therefore is an “absolute”; Rose Otto is an essential oil as it has been extracted through steam distillation. The trace amounts of chemical residue may be found in Rose Absolute which can lead to increased chance of skin irritation. A rose blossom contains only about 0.02% essential oil. Solvent extraction gives a greater yield than distillation which is why Rose Absolute is less expensive than Rose essential oil.  Rose Absolute has a stronger, richer aroma. Rose Bulgaria essential oil is lighter in color and has a softer more refined aroma. 
Rosewater is basically a by-product of rose oil through distillation of pure fresh rose petals. Rosewater possesses the sweet, delicate scent of the roses from which it is made. It is a natural mild antiseptic and is recommended for acne and skin irritation, for nourishing and hydrating the skin and face, and for nourishing the body after a shower or bath. Rosewater can be used on its own as a soothing toner and cleanser or combined with other ingredients. It’s worth buying the best quality pure rose water you can find and ensuring that it has no added ingredients such as preservatives.
The 100% pure Bulgarian Rose Otto Hydrosol is widely considered as the best rosewater in the world.

Hello Cutie Facial Cleanser



In the past I was able to try out the facial mask for Glam Essentials so I am glad to be able to try out another of their products.

I wish this had a pump top but the click top is works pretty well in the shower as well. I use this with some of the other products I have that don't fit into a skin care line.

I would rather use all of the same skin care items on my face but not every company has that available.

This is a light cream like cleanser which is easy to use, the scent is not overwhelming, is easy to rinse and feels wonderful after.

Hello Cutie Facial Cleanser can be found on Amazon.

It's amazingly good at adding hydration, as well as being jam packed with antioxidants which gives it the power to help with cellular regeneration. Fresh skin does equal a fresh you, after all, and the aromatics of this mask are minty and refreshing. Peppermint, Eucalyptus, and Green Tea all penetrate deeply into skin.

Vitamin C Facial Cleanser



I was recently blessed with being able to try a new to me facial cleanser which I have really enjoyed using. I would love to try out more of the products in the line as this facial cleanser works great. I had run out of my other facial cleanser and went back to my stand in facial cleanser and I was not happy with the results, but when I started this facial cleanser I noticed my face was looking better after only a few uses.

What I love most about this cleanser is that it is a green cleanser, that is made in the USA and is animal cruelty free. These are all big things to me when looking for a cleanser. This product is also free from sulfate which is important as well as a whole list of of other items like parabens, phthalates, petrochemicals, silicones, propylene glycol, mineral oils, artificial fragrances, synthetic dyes, triclosan, tea, dea, edta.

Our family tries to use better product on, in, and near our bodies more each day. This is a pump bottle, you only need a little. It doesn't suds up much but you can feel it working while you are washing your face. Just wash face in circular motions, rinse, pat dry, then follow with toner, serums, and moisturizer if you use them.

The Joyal Beauty Facial Cleanser can be found on Amazon.


What Joyal Beauty has to say about their product.
