What are the best natural face and body moisturizing lotions?
FInding a good organic moisturizer lotion for extremely dry skin is not hard. Natural organic moisturizers often contain nut butters and other natural fats that are very good at softening skin. The frustrating part, especially when it comes to facial lotions, can be finding one that is not too thick and does not clog your pores, and is still at least 95% organic. There are so many organic lotions on the market it's hard to find the lotion that will work best for your own skin type, especially if you have oily or combination skin, or if you have sensitive allergy prone skin.
But don't worry I have narrowed the search for you. Being super picky about what I put on my skin, I have spent more money and time than I care to think about finding out which face and body creams really lived up to their promises. Actually most worked pretty well, but then there were those which really outperformed the rest.
So what are the best organic face and body lotions?
Depending your skin type I would recommend any of the following moisturizer lotions.
Best Face Moisturizer For Dry Skin
Dr hauschkas Rose Day Cream
Anyone with really dry or irritable skin will find this organic moisturizer lotion one of the best products that is out there. Very creamy and thick. It has a lovely floral scent, which derives from various natural organic ingriendiants, such as Anthylis Vulneraria Extract, Avocado, Fruit Extract, rose petal extract, Shea Butter, and various other essential oils. It is best applied at night as it is a tad greasy. There is also a lighter version of this product (less greasy) which is better for daytime use. I found them both to be exceptionally good moisturizers. price $38.00
Best Moisturizer For Oily Skin
Burts Bees Radiance Day Cream
Looking at the box this seems like an ordinary face cream, nothing too special. But this organic lotion contains the herb Comfrey which has special healing powers to knit bones and connective tissue as well as being healing to the skin. It also contains royal jelly, aloe, burdock root extract, birch bark, spearmint and wild cherry bark extract and sesame oil. The result is a lotion that is very light and soothing to the skin. It is one of the few moisturizers that is not disruptive to acne prone skin. In fact this was the moisturizer that got me threw my teen years. I used this lotion up to a year ago when my skin began to mature and I began experimenting with other organic moisturizers. Price: $16.00
Best Moisturizer for Combination Skin Acne Treatments
Dr. Alkaitis Soothing Gel
This is a lightweight gel type organic lotion that contains a base of aloe vera gel and witch hazel. The combination of oils and herbs seems to work for people with sensitive acne prone skin, as well as all sorts of sensitive skin conditions like Eczema and Rosacea. I know the concept of putting oils on your face to combat acne is puzzling to many people, but you can’t argue with it’s good results. Undoubtedly the answer can be found in the combination of organic ingredients, which includes Kelp, Seaweed and sea oak as well as various herbal extracts such as Nettle, Wild Chamomile, Myrrh, European Elder, Sweet Weed, Lavender, Curucao Orange, Rosemary, Olibanum, Fennel, and Mint. The price is a bit steep. $60.00
