Some of you have told me that you really like “Friday’s 5 Faves” which I haven’t done in awhile, so here goes: Natural Products in My Bathroom Cabinet<\/span>.<\/p>\n

1. Coconut oil\/coconut butter<\/a><\/span> (it’s liquid when it’s warm, i.e., oil, and solid when it’s cooler, i.e., butter). I use it for makeup remover (eye makeup, too), moisturizer for face and body (it really, really works), deep conditioner for hair, lip balm, cuticle oil, bath oil. It is truly amazing stuff. You can get it at a health food store or order online (Nutiva<\/a> is the brand I buy); it’s so reasonably priced for all it does, it frees up cash for some of pricier items below.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
2. Dr. Hauschka deodorant<\/a><\/span>. I stopped using antiperspirant because of its aluminum content, <\/div>\n

\"eco-dent.jpg\"<\/span><\/p>\n

and Dr. Hauschka’s super-natural deodorant takes up the slack. Like all Dr. Hauschaka products (with the exception of sunscreen which by law has to be in a nonbreakable container), it’s even packaged in glass. Find it online or at natural food stores and upscale pharmacies.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
3. Ahava Mud Exfoliator<\/a><\/span>. This comes from the Dead Sea and does a fine job of facial exfoliation without irritating my sensitive skin. In addition to ordering online, you can find Ahava at select natural food stores. Today there was even a selection of Ahava products, including Mud Exfoliator, at Marshall’s — a total treat, discounted, right there in the checkout line.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
4. Aubrey Organics Green Tea & Ginkgo Moisturizer SPF 15<\/a><\/span>. This is my standard daytime moisturizer and sun protector, totally natural ingredients — it even looks green when you put it on. I can almost feel my skin drink it up, and makeup goes on beautifully over it. At natural food stores and online.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
5. Eco-Dent tooth powders<\/a><\/span>.<\/a> Once you try these, it’s hard to go back to paste. I use “Daily Care” in a luscious cinnamon flavor most of the time, and ExtraBrite for Whitening for a couple of weeks two or three times a year. At natural food stores and online.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
